After Alyssa finished speaking, she turned back to continue cooking.
Emmett walked over to Alyssa’s side and hugged her from behind. When he spoke, the hot air he
exhaled sprayed on top of her head. "What are you cooking?"
"It's all your favorite food." Alyssa was hugged by him and couldn’t continue cooking as her movements
were restricted. She used her elbow to gently push him. "Let go of me. And don't hinder me from
cooking."
It was rare for Emmett to obediently listen to Alyssa and let go of her. Then, he leaned to the side to
watch her cook.
He turned his head to look outside the window and found that the sky had already darkened. He was
too anxious to notice the time when he woke up and came to look for her.
He returned back to the bedroom and looked at the time. It was already past seven o'clock.
He had slept for a long time.
When he returned to the kitchen, Alyssa was about to serve the dishes.
Emmett took out the few dishes from her hand and placed them on the table. Then he entered the
kitchen again and walked out with steamed rice.
When Alyssa sat in front of the table, she could not help but laugh softly.
"What are you laughing at?" Emmett raised his eyelids and looked at her.
Alyssa shook her head. "Nothing. I just feel that you are quite virtuous now."
Emmett was clearly very dissatisfied with what she said. "I was not virtuous before?"
In the past?
In those days, Emmett used to be a pure young master. He was extremely arrogant and egoistic.
When they were still living in the villa, he had never gone into the kitchen.
Alyssa pursed her lips and smiled but did not answer.
After all, it was impossible for her to go against her conscience and lie.
Emmett snorted and started to eat.
She slept for a while in the afternoon. That was why Alyssa could not sleep at night.
She lay on the bed and scrolled through her phone for a while. Then she asked Emmett about his
matters in Country M.
"When will Justin and the others return?" Alyssa asked. Emmett had said before that he was the first to
come back.
Emmett reached out his hand and pulled her into his arms. "They set out today, and they will arrive
tomorrow."
"Is his father's death really an accident?" Alyssa was the same as Emmett. She had a trace of doubt
about this matter.
Emmett thought for a moment and said, "That's what the police said."
Alyssa heard the meaning of his words and asked, "What about you? What do you think?"
"What do you think I will think?" Emmett lowered his head and reached out to pinch Alyssa's nose.
Alyssa waved his hand away, so he used his fingers to touch her eyelashes. He even sighed and said,
"Your eyelashes are so long!"
Alyssa was unable to open her eyes. She could only narrow her eyes and avoided his hand. "Yours are
longer. Go and play with yours."
Emmett's voice had a hint of a smile. "Which part of me is longer?"
Alyssa felt that she had been led astray by Emmett again. It was clearly a sentence that did not sound
ambiguous, but it was easy for her to get what he implied.
Emmett half leaned his body and looked at her. He asked seriously, "You are not going to speak
anymore? What are you thinking? I just said that my eyelashes are not as long as yours…"
Alyssa pushed him back to the bed. "Go to sleep!"
“You are so rude."
"I can do something more rude. How about you go sleep on the sofa?" She felt that he was extremely
shameless!
Emmett seemed to have the mood of got into a fight with her. He said deliberately, "There is no air
conditioner in the living room. It is very hot."
Alyssa could not be bothered with him anymore. She pulled up the blanket and covered her head
before falling asleep.
Seeing her actions, Emmett laughed and hugged her along the blanket.
The next morning, Frank came to pick Emmett up.
As George and the others were going back to Holston City today, Alyssa and Emmett were going to
play the role of a divorced couple again.
Downstairs, when seeing Emmett coming over, Frank got out of the car to open the door for Emmett.
He said respectfully, "Good morning, Mr. Lawrence."
Emmett replied for the first time, "Good morning."
Then he bent down and sat in the car.
Frank was stunned on the spot.
Under normal circumstances, Emmett would only respond with a "yes" or nod when Frank greeted him.
However, today he actually replied with "good morning." It seemed that Emmett was in a very good
mood today.
Frank closed the car door and went to the other side to sit on the driver’s seat.
From the rearview mirror, he saw Emmett's energetic face.
Frank couldn't help shaking his head. How strong the power of love is!
Even a cold and ruthless man like Emmett couldn’t escape from it.
Then, Frank directly drove to the Lawrence Group.
Although Emmett and George had basically fallen out with each other, they didn’t declare a war. So
they still had to maintain the peace on the surface.
Angela was still in George's hands, so Emmett did not dare to act rashly.
The Lawrence Group was now under Emmett's control, so George didn't dare to act rashly as well.
The two of them held each other in check, so neither of them wanted to take action for now.
Emmett knew very well how much Alyssa cared about Angela.
Before he had full assurance that he would win, Emmett could only stay in the Lawrence Group and
continue to help George manage the Lawrence Group to maintain the prosperity and glory of the
Lawrence family as the top aristocratic family for him.
Other people only saw the prosperity and glory of the Lawrence family on the outside, but they did not
know that the interior had already decayed.
This was also one of the reasons why Emmett didn't want to return to the old residence all these years.
Whether it was George or the other relatives of the Lawrence family, everyone relied on the Lawrence
Group to maintain their status and reputation. They even resorted to unscrupulous means to achieve
this.
That’s why, the Lawrence Group was going downhill now.
That’s also why, George was so anxious to control him.
As soon as Emmett entered the elevator, his phone rang.
He took it out and saw that it was Xavier calling.
Calling him so early in the morning, he thought it must be about the D-Fronts Media.
Emmett picked up the phone and asked, "What happened?"
Xavier was hesitant. He asked in a somewhat strange voice, "Have you returned to the country?”
Emmett said, "Yes."
After Frank followed Emmett and entered the elevator, the elevator door was closed. There was no
signal in the elevator. He could not answer the phone.
When he got out of the elevator, Emmett called Xavier back.
As he walked towards the office, he said, "There was no signal in the elevator just now. If you have
something to say, say it."
Xavier was quiet for a while before Emmett heard his hesitant voice. "Have you seen Alyssa?"
Xavier had said these words. How could Emmett not guess that the matter Xavier called him was
related to Alyssa?
Emmett stopped and frowned. His tone also became heavy, "What happened to Alyssa?"
On the other side, Xavier keenly sensed the change in Emmett's tone. He stuttered for a long time.
When Emmett's patience was about to run out, he quickly said to him, "I know you care about Alyssa a
lot, but women are like that sometimes. Not every woman can be like Hazel..."
Emmett could not stand Xavier's long preparation and impatiently interrupted him. "Cut the crap."
Almost immediately, Xavier replied. "Alyssa has a man outside."
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
Time passed slowly.
Emmett's cold voice sounded from the other end of the phone. "I'll ask Frank to find you a good brain
specialist."
Xavier was stunned for a moment before he realized what was going on. "Why don't you believe me?
I'm telling the truth. I have evidence!"
