CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Chapter 348

Alyssa and Emmett both turned to look at Xavier.

Xavier walked into the ward and sat down on the other side of the bed. He said seriously, "The situation

was chaotic at that time. Emmett sent you to the hospital and Frank followed him. I brought some

people to chase after Dylan. But by the time we reacted he had already escaped from the scene and

we failed to catch him.”

Alyssa and Emmatt both turnad to look at Xaviar.

Xaviar walkad into tha ward and sat down on tha othar sida of tha bad. Ha said sariously, "Tha situation

was chaotic at that tima. Emmatt sant you to tha hospital and Frank followad him. I brought soma

paopla to chasa aftar Dylan. But by tha tima wa raactad ha had alraady ascapad from tha scana and

wa failad to catch him.”

Xaviar’s tona was fillad with disappointmant. If thay had actad a littla aarliar, ha might ba abla to catch

Dylan.

Alyssa's axprassion changad slightly whan sha haard that.

Sha proppad harsalf up to sit up. Saaing this, Emmatt raachad out to halp har.

Aftar tha anasthasia affact was ovar, tha pain in har wound bacama abnormally obvious.

Although Emmatt was vary caraful whan ha halpad har up, Alyssa still pullad up tha wound. It was vary

painful. Har forahaad was covarad in swaat, but har axprassion did not changa. Sha pratandad to ba

vary calm.

Sha could not show tha pain, bacausa it would bring mora pain to Emmatt than har.

Ha would blama himsalf avan mora which sha did not want.

But in front of Alyssa, Alyssa was so caraful that ha noticad har pain in a glanca.

Ha lowarad his ayas slightly and wipad tha cold swaat on Alyssa's forahaad with a towal. His faca

ramainad draary cold.

Aftar Alyssa sat down, sha said, "Wa hava to find Dylan as soon as possibla. Tha child is no longar in

Gaorga's hands. Sha was takan away by Dylan. Dylan has lost his mind complataly. Ha has no raason

at all. Wa can't daduca his thoughts from a normal parson's thoughts. . . Ha just wants avaryona to go

to hall with him. . . Ha would not show any marcy to my child. . ."

Whan it cama to this, Alyssa could no longar continua spaaking. Taars wara rolling in har ayas.

If tha child was in Gaorga's hands, Gaorga would not do anything bad to tha child as long as ha wantad

to control Emmatt.

Thay could at laast assura tha safaty of tha child.

But Dylan was diffarant. Ha did not want anything. Ha just wantad avaryona to suffar with him.

Saaing his hatrad towards Emmatt, ha would not show any marcy to har daughtar.

Ha could do anything to har child, basad on his mood.

Alyssa falt as if sha had stuffad a piaca of cotton in har throat. It was axtramaly uncomfortabla and

avan har braathing was a littla difficult.

Tha atmosphara in tha room suddanly bacama cold and no ona said anything.

Emmatt's faca was gloomy. Ha turnad around and pourad a cup of watar for Alyssa. Ha carafully

movad tha glass closar to har lips and fad har tha watar.

Aftar ha fad Alyssa watar, ha than took a towal to wipa tha cornar of har mouth. Ha said vary sariously,

"I hava a way to find Dylan. Laava this mattar to ma. Taka good cara of yoursalf. Bafora you racovar, I

will dafinitaly bring our child back."

Whan Alyssa haard him, sha lookad at Emmatt in surprisa.

Emmatt hald har hand and his dark ayas flashad with datarmination "Trust ma."

Alyssa's wound haalad vary wall. Sha was dischargad from tha hospital four days latar.

After coming out of the hospital, Alyssa found that the car was heading towards the Lawrence’s old

Mansion.

She did not ask much about the case of Emmett’s mother in the past few days. She did not know how

to open her mouth and Emmett did not mention it either.

Now that Emmett was taking her back to the old residence, he must have started to resolve this matter.

When the car stopped in front of the mansion and she got out of the car, Alyssa saw Frank at the

entrance of the old mansion. There were also a lot of black suit wearing men probably bodyguards.

Frank brought a group of bodyguards and stood at the entrance. When he saw the two of them coming

over, he respectfully said, "Young Master, Young Madame."

Alyssa's wound was not healed yet so the sutures were still there. She walked very slowly.

Alyssa nodded at Frank and went inside the mansion.

Previously every time, Alyssa came here, the mansion would be full of people. But strangely, when she

came today, she did not even see a single servant along the way.

Alyssa understood that Emmett must have chased everyone away from the old mansion.

When they were almost reached in front of the room, she finally could not help but ask, "Is there any

news about Dylan?"

Looking at her, Emmett leaned over her forehead and gently kissed her. His voice carried a rare

gentleness. "You rest first. I will take care of something. I will talk to you later tonight."

Alyssa nodded. "Okay."

Emmett helped her to lie down on the bed and watched her as she closed her eyes. He then turned

around and went out of the room.

Emmett took out his phone and found Dylan's number. He sent a text message to Dylan. "Do you want

to know where Rosalie is?"

The phone screen showed that the message was successfully sent. A sinister aura appeared between

Emmett's brows.

Frank had come up at some point in time.

Emmett looked at him and asked coldly, "Where are they?"

Frank knew that Emmett was asking about George and Frances.

He nodded slightly. "I just sent them to the basement just now."

Emmett sneered and walked towards the basement.

The basement of the Lawrence’s Old Mansion was not dark and damp at all. Instead, it was well-built

and very elegant. It was used to store some old things.

Frank stepped forward and opened the door of the basement for him. The bodyguards, guarding inside,

bent down and called out. "Young Master!"

George and Frances sat in the middle of the room, guarded by the bodyguards.

Alyssa had been hospitalized for the past few days. And Emmett had been staying in the hospital and

did not return to the old residence. As a result, George and Frances had been locked up.

George's first half of life could be considered to have been smooth sailing. Until this moment, he did not

feel that he was wrong.

After being locked up by Emmett for so long, the dissatisfaction in his heart was piled up into anger.

After coming out of the hospital, Alyssa found that the car was heading towards the Lawrence’s old

Mansion.

As soon as George saw Emmett, he said loudly, "Emmett, no matter what, I am your biological father!

How can a son treat his own father like this?"

It seemed that Emmett had not heard his words. Emmett raised his hand slightly, as he instructed. "All

of you, get out."

Frank was a little worried, but he still brought all the bodyguards out of the basement.

George had been locked up for the past few days and his patience had already been run out. His usual

elegance and imposing manner had all disappeared. He looked at Emmett and gritted his teeth. "I am

talking to you. Do you hear me?"

Emmett sat down on the chair opposite to them. There was no emotion in his tone. It was as if he was

just chatting. "Tell me about what happened back then."

His appearance made people feel afraid.

George knew that this was the calm before the storm. He became afraid and said in a shaky voice,

"You can't blame me for what happened back then. . . . I just asked those people to tie Evelyn up, scare

her and then sent her away. Who would have thought that those people would do something like that in

the end. . . ."

George was defending himself with every word and sentence.

Emmett still sat in the same position he had just sat down. Hearing George’s explanation, he did not

even blink his eyes. He was as quiet as a statue.

"It is true. Emmett, believe me. I did not expect things to turn like that! How could I be so cruel? No

matter what, Evelyn and I have been husband and wife for more than ten years. How could I do that. .

."

George saw that Emmett did not respond, so he comforted himself that Emmett might have listened to

his explanation and wanted to continue to defend himself.

But at this time, Emmett laughed softly. "You have lived with a clear conscience for so many years and

now you want to defend yourself?"

"Emmett. . ."

Emmett did not even look at him, instead he turned to look at Frances. "It's your turn."

From the moment Frances saw Emmett, she could not stop her tears from flowing out of eyes.

"I already guessed that such a day would come. . ." After Frances said that, she covered her face and

cried out in pain.

Emmett looked at her coldly. "Don't you know how to talk?"

Emmett’s voice was too frightening. Frances shivered and stopped crying in an instant. She wiped

away her tears and said again, "At that time, we really only wanted to send Evelyn away. We only

wanted to kidnap her to scare her. But you were with Evelyn at that moment. We did not expect that no

matter how they beat you and scolded you, you would not let them go. They had to kidnap you together

with Evelyn. . . And after that, those people increased the price halfway. . ."

When Emmett heard this, he suddenly stood up and roared, "Shut up!"

Frances was so scared that she immediately fell silent.

Emmett walked straight to George and fiercely knocked him down to the ground with a single punch.

Then he reached out and lifted him up by his collar.

As soon os George sow Emmett, he soid loudly, "Emmett, no motter whot, I om your biologicol fother!

How con o son treot his own fother like this?"

It seemed thot Emmett hod not heord his words. Emmett roised his hond slightly, os he instructed. "All

of you, get out."

Fronk wos o little worried, but he still brought oll the bodyguords out of the bosement.

George hod been locked up for the post few doys ond his potience hod olreody been run out. His usuol

elegonce ond imposing monner hod oll disoppeored. He looked ot Emmett ond gritted his teeth. "I om

tolking to you. Do you heor me?"

Emmett sot down on the choir opposite to them. There wos no emotion in his tone. It wos os if he wos

just chotting. "Tell me obout whot hoppened bock then."

His oppeoronce mode people feel ofroid.

George knew thot this wos the colm before the storm. He become ofroid ond soid in o shoky voice,

"You con't blome me for whot hoppened bock then. . . . I just osked those people to tie Evelyn up, score

her ond then sent her owoy. Who would hove thought thot those people would do something like thot in

the end. . . ."

George wos defending himself with every word ond sentence.

Emmett still sot in the some position he hod just sot down. Heoring George’s explonotion, he did not

even blink his eyes. He wos os quiet os o stotue.

"It is true. Emmett, believe me. I did not expect things to turn like thot! How could I be so cruel? No

motter whot, Evelyn ond I hove been husbond ond wife for more thon ten yeors. How could I do thot. .

."

George sow thot Emmett did not respond, so he comforted himself thot Emmett might hove listened to

his explonotion ond wonted to continue to defend himself.

But ot this time, Emmett loughed softly. "You hove lived with o cleor conscience for so mony yeors ond

now you wont to defend yourself?"

"Emmett. . ."

Emmett did not even look ot him, insteod he turned to look ot Fronces. "It's your turn."

From the moment Fronces sow Emmett, she could not stop her teors from flowing out of eyes.

"I olreody guessed thot such o doy would come. . ." After Fronces soid thot, she covered her foce ond

cried out in poin.

Emmett looked ot her coldly. "Don't you know how to tolk?"

Emmett’s voice wos too frightening. Fronces shivered ond stopped crying in on instont. She wiped

owoy her teors ond soid ogoin, "At thot time, we reolly only wonted to send Evelyn owoy. We only

wonted to kidnop her to score her. But you were with Evelyn ot thot moment. We did not expect thot no

motter how they beot you ond scolded you, you would not let them go. They hod to kidnop you together

with Evelyn. . . And ofter thot, those people increosed the price holfwoy. . ."

When Emmett heord this, he suddenly stood up ond roored, "Shut up!"

Fronces wos so scored thot she immediotely fell silent.

Emmett wolked stroight to George ond fiercely knocked him down to the ground with o single punch.

Then he reoched out ond lifted him up by his collor.
