CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 446

Emmett frowned and called out her name, "Alyssa."

Alyssa interrupted him and looked into his eyes. She said seriously, "Emmett, I know you better than you think."

"You have no feelings for me or Angela now. You are trying to accept us. This is good enough. Don't be too anxious. Come step by step."

Emmett was also trying hard to accept her and Angela.

But it was very obvious that the results were not very good.

This might have something to do with Emmett's past experiences.

Because of his mother, his youth was dark.

It was not easy to enter his heart.

And he was also a person who liked to control everything in his hands.

However, his memories were in a mess. He only remembered that happened before he was twenty years old.

At that time, he did not know Alyssa and Angela.

He might be able to accept his identity as the CEO of the Lawrence Group and the truth of his mother's

kidnapping, but Alyssa and Angela were completely out of his control.

One of them was his wife and the other was his daughter. Both were very close to him.

Oh, to be more specific, she was actually just Emmett's ex-wife.

When Emmett was with them, he was actually a little helpless. This was something Alyssa could feel.

Alyssa did not know if Emmett had heard what she said.

He stared at Alyssa for a while and then said very coldly, "Up to you."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After Angela woke up, Alyssa brought her back.

When Angela returned home, she was much better. Alyssa cooked some simple food and coaxed Angela to let her sleep.

Perhaps because she was sick, Angela was particularly sticky. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Alyssa coaxed her for a while. When she was about to leave, Angela would hold her and did not let her go, "Mommy don't go."

"Okay, I won't go. I will sleep with you tonight." Alyssa could only lean on the bed to comfort her.

Joy flashed across Angela's eyes, "Okay."

Angela had just fallen asleep when Alyssa's phone rang.

Alyssa quickly turned off the sound and walked out gently.

The phone was from Amelia.

They had just met during the day. Why did she call Alyssa? Was there anything urgent?

The moment the call was connected, Amelia's slightly anxious voice sounded, "There's an event tomorrow night. Let's go together."

"What kind of event?"

She said it without a head or tail. Alyssa still had to figure out what activity it was first.

"It's a small award ceremony. Most of the people in the event are insiders. There are also some investors. Anyway, you will be in the industry in the future. Come with me and get familiar with them."

Alyssa knew in her heart that Amelia planned to attract investment by using her.

Actually, it was good for Alyssa to appear in the public.

Just like what Amelia said, she also wanted to make a living in the circle in the future and also needed connections. Naturally, she also needed to make friends with more people in the circle.

Alyssa agreed immediately, "Okay, what time is it?"

After hanging up the phone, Alyssa thought that there was still Angela.

If she went to participate in the event, what about Angela?

She would not be at ease to entrust someone else to take care of Angela.

Hazel might also attend the event tomorrow night.

In the end, she could only look for Emmett?

It was impossible for her not to attend the event because of Angela.

There would definitely be reporters at this kind of award ceremony. Not to mention that she was unwilling to bring Angela there, even if Emmett knew, he would not allow her to bring Angela there.

It seemed that Alyssa had to take Angela to Emmett's house again.

The award ceremony was held at nine o'clock in the evening.

Alyssa sent Angela to Emmett's place in advance. She went to the award ceremony venue after she had her hair done.

Amelia was waiting for her at the door.

When she saw Alyssa, her eyes lit up. "The nature of beauty is right. A woman like you would be so

pretty even without makeup. To be honest, don't you consider entering the entertainment industry?"

Alyssa was wearing a white dress today. It was a very conservative style. It did not expose her shoulders or her chest. It was a very ordinary basic style.

Her hair was lightly done and she put on a simple makeup.

"If I enter the entertainment circle, who will write 'Lost City 2'?" Alyssa teased Amelia.

Amelia smiled and patted her shoulder. She did not say anything else and pulled Alyssa inside.

Many people came to the event venue. Some of them were familiar faces who were often active on the television screen. There were also some newcomers who had just started to splash.

Most of them were in the entertainment industry and there were also some investors.

Amelia had a wide network of connections, and she knew a lot of people.

Once she went in, people kept greeting her.

"Miss Collins, nice to meet you. It’s been a long time since we last saw each other. You are even more beautiful!"

"Thank you for your compliment. . ."

Amelia handled it with ease.

Someone saw Alyssa standing beside her and could not help but ask, "Miss Collins, you also brought new people? Are you preparing to train your own actors?"

Alyssa's appearance was outstanding and people who passed by would look at her twice more. It was not surprising that someone would say this.

Amelia pretended to be angry and said, "You are wrong. How can I have so much free money and energy to train my own newcomers? This is the scriptwriter of ‘Lost City’, Alyssa."

When that person heard that, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, "The scriptwriter of 'Lost City'?"

Alyssa nodded slightly, "Hello, I am the scriptwriter of ‘Lost City’, Alyssa Moore."

"Nice to meet you. . ." That person extended his had towards Alyssa, "I did not expect the scriptwriter of 'Lost City' to be so young and beautiful."

Amelia said a few more polite words to that person and then went elsewhere.

Very quickly, the news that the scriptwriter of 'Lost City' also came to participate in the event spread throughout the night party.

From time to time, people would come over to look for Amelia and take the opportunity to openly size up Alyssa.

Alyssa understood in her heart that these people were attracted by her identity as the scriptwriter of 'Lost City' and apart from that because she was Emmett's 'ex-wife', they were even more curious.

Those who came to exchange business cards with her were some directors, some investors, and some actors.

It was not difficult to deal with them.

"Yo, isn't this the scriptwriter of our famous ‘Lost City'? Alyssa Moore?"

At this time, a strange voice dripping with sarcasm sounded from behind Alyssa.

Alyssa did not need to turn her head to look. She could tell who this voice belonged to.

It was just because this voice was too familiar.

Alyssa did not turn her head. Skylar came to her side and casually said, "How long has it been since we last saw each other and you do not know me? That friend of yours with the surname West, is his injury healed?"

Skylar wore a black low-cut evening dress today and her makeup was as thick as usual. The way she looked at Alyssa, there was a hatred that could not be hidden in her eyes.

Perhaps she did not intend to hide it.
