CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Chapter 334

How could he not think of the things that even Alyssa could think of?

He had figured out some things long ago.

Even though he had prepared for the worst, but when he slowly removed the obstructions outside and

the secret that was suspected to be related to the truth appeared, he still found it hard to believe.

After all, they were relatives whose blood was thicker than water.

Frances was his aunt who had always treated him well since childhood. Dylan was his best elder

brother with whom he had spent his whole childhood, and George was also his father, with whom he

spent happy times in his childhood.

He was cold but not cold-blooded. When everything pointed to this possible truth, he had a moment of

hesitation.

He did not confirm it immediately, but waited for something to change. He was waiting for a favorable

turn.

However, even Alyssa could think of such a deep thing. What kind of change could there be for a

change in this matter?

Over the years, there were already enough people involved and there were so many implications in this

matter.

So no matter how dark the truth was, it had to come to light.

Things had to be resolved.

…

Frank found out that Emmett had not come back to the company since he left in the morning.

He tried to make a call to Emmett, but Emmett did not answer.

Frank knew that Emmett would be irrational when it came to matters related to Alyssa. Emmett had

smoked so many cigarettes in the morning, so Frank was sure that the two of them were quarreling

very much.

The more Frank thought about it, the more worried he became. He had no choice but to call Alyssa.

Alyssa had already returned to her home.

During this period of time, her life was quite simple. Since the shooting of “Lost City” had already

started, Alyssa began to work on a new script. It was a romantic suspense-thriller series.

She had just started her work, when her phone on the table suddenly rang.

When Alyssa saw that the caller ID was Frank, she was slightly surprised. She picked up the phone.

"Frank? Is something the matter?"

Frank would not call her if there was nothing important.

"Mrs. Lawrence, did Mr. Lawrence come to see you?"

Frank was used to calling Alyssa as "Mrs. Lawrence" from the beginning. Alyssa had tried to correct

him several times but he still insisted to call her this way, so Alyssa could only let him do as he pleased.

"Shouldn't he supposed to be at the company? Why would he come to find me?" Alyssa was checking

the information in front of the computer. When she heard him say this, she could not help frowning. "He

is not at the company?"

When Frank heard her say this, he was even more worried.

"Uh… That… Mrs. Lawrence…" Frank wanted to ask if they had quarreled, but he felt that it was not

good to open his mouth.

"Just say what you want to say." Alyssa pushed away the laptop in front of her a little and seriously

spoke to Frank on the phone.

Frank gritted his teeth and bit the bullet, "Did… Did you fight with Mr. Lawrence?"

Frank thought that there would not be many assistants who did the same as he did today.

In addition to caring about Emmett's whereabouts, schedule, and daily life, he also had to pay attention

to Emmett’s emotional life.

He was really having a hard time because of Emmett.

Alyssa immediately denied, "Who dares to argue with him?! I did not."

How could she dare to argue with Emmett? Most of the time, she provoked Emmett and Emmett could

scare her with just a look.

Fighting? Impossible.

It did not exist when you were in a relationship with a man like Emmett.

"You didn’t?" It was Frank's turn to be shocked. "In the morning, Mr. Lawrence smoked a whole pack of

cigarettes in the office."

It turned out that Emmett smoked so many cigarettes not because he had a fight with Alyssa.

Hearing what he said, Alyssa could not sit still any longer. She stood up from the chair and asked

seriously. "What happened?"

While she was talking on the phone, she went to the bedroom to get her bag. She then walked to the

door to change her shoes and went straight out.

Frank's tone was serious. "I don't know. Mr. Lawrence went out in the morning without saying anything.

And he hasn't come back yet."

Emmett was a very self-disciplined person. He was serious and focused in everything he did. In the

past, he had never left halfway through work for anything else.

Of course, if it was related to Alyssa, he would leave work early and this was not counted.

"I see. I'll go out and look for him."

After saying that, Alyssa hung up the phone. She went downstairs to the parking lot and drove out.

Emmett rarely smoked. Something must have happened to Emmett that caused him to smoke a pack

of cigarettes.

He was fine when he went out in the morning. Why did he end up like this when he went to the

company?

Alyssa called Emmett as she drove.

Emmett did not answer the phone, but he sent her a text message. There were only three simple

words. "What is it?"

Alyssa asked him where he was, but he did not speak again.

Not getting any reply, Alyssa first went to Emmett's apartment, and then went to Golden Fountain Club.

Apart from Lawrence Group and his apartment, the most frequent place Emmett used to visit was

Golden Fountain.

She found all the places where Emmett could be, but she could not find him.

After searching all the places, she finally called Xavier.

"Alyssa, what is it?" Xavier later knew that the person who kissed Alyssa in the car was Emmett. He felt

a little guilty about misunderstanding Alyssa, so when he received Alyssa's phone call, his tone was

very enthusiastic.

Alyssa directly asked, "Did you see Emmett?"

Although Emmett replied her text message, which was still much better than the last time when he did

not answer her phone call at all that night, Alyssa did not feel at ease.

From what Frank had said, it was very obvious and she could guess that Emmett's mood was not right.

"No! Now if I want to meet Mr. Lawrence, it is as hard as a commoner meeting an emperor. If it wasn't

for his humble visit, I wouldn't have been able to see him!"

Speaking of this matter, Xavier felt angry.

Alyssa sighed. "I see."

Seeing that Alyssa was about to hang up. Xavier hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What happened to

him?"

"I don't know. I just don't know where he is. I have found all the places I should look for but I still can't

find him." Alyssa's tone was a little weak.

She thought that she knew Emmett well, but at this time, she realized that she did not know him that

well.

"Yes." Xavier thought for a while and said, "There is another place. You must not have gone to find it."

Alyssa immediately asked, "Where is it?"

Xavier said, "The cemetery."

Alyssa and Xavier met at the entrance of the D-Fronts Media and then they went to the cemetery

where Emmett's mother was buried.

Emmett had never taken her there.

So Alyssa did not know where the place was.

When Alyssa saw the flower shop on the way, she bought a bouquet of flowers.

Xavier sat in the passenger seat. When he saw her buy the flowers, he said, "You are so nice."

The two of them went to the cemetery together, so Xavier did not drive.

Alyssa curled her lips and revealed a very faint smile.

When the two of them arrived at the cemetery, the sky suddenly turned darn and it began to rain.

Fortunately, Alyssa had a spare umbrella in her car.

Xavier had to lead the way for Alyssa, so Alyssa shared the umbrella with him.

At this time, the cemetery was very quiet. Along the way, they did not see anyone who came to pay

their respects.

The cemetery was built on a mountain. After Alyssa went up, she saw a tall and slender figure in the

distance.

"It's Emmett!" Alyssa said and ran towards him.

Xavier held the umbrella and ran behind her. "It's raining. Why are you running? You are already in

front of him. Just walk over."

Alyssa did not listen to him at all, so he could only run after Alyssa with the umbrella.

In the end, he found that he could not keep up with her.

"Emmett!" Alyssa ran over with the bouquet of flower in her arms.

The rain was heavy. Emmett's clothes were all soaking wet and his black hair was wet and stuck to his

forehead. He looked a little embarrassed.

Alyssa was not much better than him.

After running in rain, her dress and hair were all drenched. She looked a real mess.

Seeing Emmett standing there in perfect condition, Alyssa did not have time to say anything. She

turned her head to look at the tombstone.
