CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 241

Alyssa's temper rose when she heard this.

When she heard that his hand was injured, she was kind enough to care about him. What kind of tone was this!?

"Emmett Lawrence, I will give you a chance to speak again." She walked to Emmett's desk and slapped the open document in front of him.

Emmett rubbed his forehead and sighed. "Baby, I really have work to do."

Fine! She saw that his tone was much better than before. She didn't argue with him anymore.

But Alyssa still asked worriedly, "Are you really not injured?"

"No." When this matter was brought up, Emmett's expression became a little strange.

Alyssa went out in confusion.

When she went downstairs, she met Jessie.

"Young Madame, is the injury on young master's hand serious?" Jessie asked seriously.

"His hand is not injured."

Alyssa thought about it and asked her, "Jessie, why do you think his hand is injured? When I came back with him from the old residence, he was still fine."

"Before, I was supposed to bring you soup, but in the corridor, I accidentally bumped into young master. At that time, he was very vigilant and protected his hand. I think it should be injured."

Jessie finished and muttered to herself, "Even if he was not injured, he might have internal injuries."

Alyssa was stunned and asked, "In the corridor? He just went out from the bedroom?"

"Yes." Jessie frowned and still looked worried.

Alyssa's brain short-circuited for a few seconds. Then she stared at Jessie and said in a daze, "I seem to know the reason. But don't worry, his hand is fine and he is not hurt."

"He is really not injured? That's fine." Jessie heard Alyssa say the same thing and turned around to leave.

After Jessie left, Alyssa looked upstairs. She touched her slightly hot face and sat down on the sofa.

Could it be because she kissed his hand that he was so vigilant about it as if he was hurt?

Really?

…

During dinner, Emmett felt that Alyssa had been looking at him.

Finally, when Alyssa picked up another dish and dropped it down on the table, Emmett finally asked, "Alyssa, what's wrong?"

"Ah?" Alyssa looked down and saw that she had dropped the dish on the table. She quickly took back her chopsticks and asked, "Why did the dish fall on the table again?"

Emmett looked at her coldly. The expression on his face clearly said, ‘I will quietly watch you pretend.’

Alyssa was a little embarrassed.

She did not want to be distracted all the time.

She just could not think of anything. Emmett usually looked as cold as a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg. How could he do such a thing?

Emmett looked at her with this kind of "caring for a fool." But for Alyssa, if Emmett could look at her with a look that he didn't dislike her, he had already put her in his heart.

Alyssa didn’t dare to think that Emmett cherished his hand because she kissed it…

After he finished his meal, he would not even wash his hands, right?

This thought lingered in Alyssa's mind.

When they finished their meal, she looked at Emmett and said, "Let's go wash our hands together."

Emmett looked at her as he was looking at a fool, "You should watch a movie with Justin."

After that, Emmett stood up and left the restaurant.

"Hey!" Justin waved his hand in front of Alyssa's eyes.

Alyssa turned to look at him and was about to say something when she saw Justin shaking his head with a look of disdain. "When you stared at cousin just now, your eyeballs were about to fall out."

"Really?" Alyssa touched her face. She did not dare to imagine herself staring at Emmett all the time.

"Cousin is so proud." Justin moved the chair to Alyssa's side. He looked like he knew what was going on. "You should play hard-to-get to a man. You should not act like you are too infatuated with him."

Where did this little brat learn these things?

Alyssa interrupted him. "You're not right. I didn't act like I'm infatuated with him. On the contrary, don't you think he's more infatuated with me?"

For example, she kissed his hand and he protected that hand all the time…

This showed how infatuated Emmett was with her.

Justin's mouth twitched. "I'm afraid it’s your own imagination."

"I asked him to wash his hands with me. He refused. It’s because..." Alyssa suddenly stopped talking. She wondered if she should tell Justin why Emmett acted like this.

After all, Justin was still young. Would it have a bad influence? Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Justin looked sympathetic. "You might as well ask your husband to go to the bathroom together. After all, it's normal…"

Alyssa, “…”

As expected, everything was just her imagination.

…

The incident of Dylan killing the puppy kept spreading on the Internet.

Some people who loved dogs denounced Dylan on the Internet and even bought medicinal trending searches. They were aggressive.

After that, the matter of Dylan and a married female celebrity getting a room at a hotel was exposed.

In short, with the incident of Dylan killing the puppy, the scandals about him were blown up one after another.

Alyssa was afraid that Justin would see this, so she dragged Justin to the movies every day. Otherwise, she ordered Justin to go to the yard to weed the grass.

Of course, Justin was the one who did the physical work of weeding. She just needed to wrap her down jacket and hold the hot water to watch from the side.

Emmett was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground. He did not go to the company again until the day before New Year's Eve.

Early in the morning, the old residence called and asked them to return to the old residence to prepare for New Year's Eve.

Emmett's attitude did not change. "No."

Alyssa knew that the reason Emmett rejected so decisively was because of her.

However, Emmett had already returned to the Lawrence Group. No matter how stiff his relationship with George was, he should try to reconcile.

"Let's go back." Alyssa advised him, "We will only go back for a week at most."

Emmett frowned and was about to say something when Alyssa interrupted him and said seriously, "With you around, what can happen to me?"

Emmett was stunned when he heard that.

Then he pressed the back of her head and kissed her.

After the kiss, he reached out and stroked her hair. He said one word in a low voice, "Okay."

Justin came down the stairs with his bag on his back when he happened to see the scene. He aggressively covered his eyes and shouted, "Oh, can you guys stop? I am just a kid!"

Alyssa pushed Emmett but Emmett did not let go of her. He picked up the pillow on the sofa and threw it at Justin.

Justin jumped to the other side of the stairs and easily dodged the pillow.

However, he did not have the time to be pleased with himself. When he raised his head, another pillow was thrown over, hitting his pretty little face.

Justin picked up the pillow and did not dare to throw it back. He could only shout at Alyssa, "Alyssa, your husband is bullying me!"

Alyssa could not help but laugh. Just as she was about to speak, her phone in her pocket rang.

She took out her phone and pushed Emmett away. "I'll answer the phone."

Emmett let her go. She stood up a little distance away from Emmett and picked up the phone. "Who is it?"

"Alyssa, you won't be home on New Year's Eve this year, will you? I wish you well in advance."

Alyssa's expression turned cold. She calmly called out her name. "Skylar!"
