CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 412

Emmett narrowed his eyes and revealed a smile that was hard to understand. "Can't you understand the literal meaning?"

Alyssa was especially disgusted. Everything seemed to be under his control.

She raised her chin slightly and the trace of submission in her tone had long disappeared.

She looked at Emmett steadily, and her tone was slightly cold. "What do you mean by ‘hook up with others’?"

"For example, Sampson." Emmett slowed down a bit, but it sounded even more dangerous.

Alyssa was so angry that she laughed. She took a deep breath and said, "What about Marilyn then?"

"So you admit it?"

"What do I admit?"

"Sampson."

The conversation between the two went back and forth, and the topic went back to Sampson.

"Emmett, we don't have a legally recognized relationship right now, except for the fact that we are Angela's parents." Alyssa tried to reason with Emmett. "Now that I’m living with you, there are some things that I don't need you to tell me. I understand, but you. . ."

Emmett obviously did not want to hear more from her. He directly stopped her. "It is good that you understand."

"Can you let me finish?" Alyssa struggled a little impatiently for a moment and easily broke free.

She looked up at Emmett with surprise.

He let her go?

Emmett put his hands in his pockets and leaned against the edge of the desk. He said softly, "I only listen to what's useful. This way, we can save each other's time."

Alyssa asked, "So your time is precious. My time is not?"

"If you think your time is precious, you should go back to sleep now." Emmett turned his head to look at her. His indifferent expression seemed to be innocent.

Emmett was really unreasonable.

However, Alyssa could not find any words to refute him.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the coffee that she had just placed on the desk. She looked at Emmett and reached out to pick up the cup of coffee. She then raised her head and drank all the coffee in one breath.

The coffee was a little bitter. She didn’t add milk and sugar, it was so bitter that her throat was full of

bitterness.

Alyssa pursed her lips and endured the bitter taste. She put the empty cup of coffee on the desk with a loud “bang” and looked at Emmett provocatively. "I'm going to bed. Good night."

Emmett watched her walk out with a gloomy expression. Only then did he look down at the empty coffee cup.

He stretched out his finger and touched the coffee cup's handle twice. Suddenly, he smiled.

Was she angry just now?

However, her way of revenge was really too light. He did not feel like he was being taken revenge at all. He actually felt that it was somewhat interesting. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Alyssa returned to the room with a stomach full of anger.

She closed the door and let out a long sigh of relief. She then went to the bedside to take a look at Angela.

Realizing that Angela was still sleeping soundly, she got up and went into the bathroom.

Standing in front of the washing table, she reached out to touch the corner of her lips. There seemed to still be the heat of the kiss.

She could not figure out what Emmett was thinking and what he wanted to do.

However, his arrogant and domineering manner was really annoying.

Alyssa walked out of the bathroom and did not lie on the bed directly.

She took the phone and tucked it into the sofa and sent Hazel a WeChat message. "Are you sure that Emmett and I really loved each other in the past?"

Hazel was probably playing with her phone, so she quickly replied, "I'm sure."

Alyssa seemed to have finally found someone to vent and started to complain to Hazel. "But now I feel that he is very annoying. He is as arrogant as an emperor. His words can make people die of anger."

Hazel looked at her long string of words and replied, "Give me an example."

"He actually told me not to go out and hook up with others before he regains his memory. Do I look like such a restless person? I can understand the starting point of his words. But isn't it too much for him to say so?”

Hazel read Alyssa's words over and over again, and said carefully, "I now feel like you are showing off your love to me."

"Big Boss clearly has feelings for you. But he has not completely recovered his memory back yet. That’s way, it is a little complicated. It is like an animal's instinct. Animals will take an oath of sovereignty to their own things and territories."

After Hazel finished speaking, she asked her, "Can you understand what I'm saying?"

"He has feelings for me. Shouldn't he be more gentle?"

"Everyone's way of expressing themselves is different." Hazel patiently asked her, "What about you? Don't you feel anything at all?"

Alyssa fell silent.

After a few seconds, she sent Hazel a "good night.”

Hazel quickly replied, "You still haven't answered my question yet!"

Alyssa only sent one sentence, "I fell asleep."

Then, she threw her phone to the side.

She quietly lay on the bed and carefully tucked the corner of Angela's quilt. She could not sleep and just looked at the ceiling.

Did she feel anything about Emmett?

A person's feelings were related to his memory.

Although she did not have any memories, it was impossible for Alyssa not to feel anything about Emmett at all when they had stayed with each other day and night.

Occasionally, she would also feel her heart palpitate for a moment.

But this kind of throbbing was unreal and did not have a sense of security.

Without memories to rely on, those feelings and throbbing that suddenly burst out were like skyscrapers without foundations, collapsing with a single poke.

Now they had two ways.

Either both of them recovered their memories.

Or, they fell in love again.

Early in the morning, when Emmett had just arrived at the company's entrance, Xavier had jumped out of nowhere.

Xavier was wearing a blue sweater. Inside was a white shirt that looked like a young man in his early twenties.

He stood in front of Emmett and said with a smile, "Good morning, Emmett."

Emmett narrowed his eyes. "Is there anything wrong?"

"Of course. If I have nothing to do, why would I come to you?" Xavier's eyes were glued to him as he spoke. His eyes were full of undisguised inquiry.

Xavier heard him and glanced at him indifferently. He spat out two words, "Follow me."

Xavier was stunned on the spot, but he quickly reacted and followed.

He followed Emmett to the president's office.

However, when they left the elevator, they met Kathleen.

Seeing her, Xavier smiled meaningfully. "Miss Lawrence, long time no see."

Kathleen's expression changed when she saw Xavier.

She ignored Xavier and turned to look at Emmett.

However, Emmett did not even look at her. He walked past her and walked towards the office.

Xavier followed behind Emmett and did not forget to turn around and raise his eyebrows at Kathleen in a mocking manner.

Kathleen was so angry that she trembled. She clenched her hands tightly. Her expression was extremely ugly.

At this time, her phone rang.

Kathleen picked up the phone and said in a very bad tone, "Speak."

No one knew what the person opposite her said to her. Kathleen sneered. "I know."
