CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 215

Alyssa didn't doubt it at all. If she said she wanted the stars in the sky, Emmett would find a way to pick them for her.

With Emmett's ability, he might really be able to pick the stars for her.

Thinking of this, Alyssa could not help but laugh at herself.

Alyssa changed her clothes and saw Jessie.

When Jessie saw her, she beamed with joy. "Eat something before you leave. Even if you are going out to eat, you did not eat at all in the morning. You can eat some to fill your stomach."

Just now when she brought the food up, Emmett asked her to bring it back to the kitchen.

Alyssa's appetite these few days was not very good. The moment Jessie saw her, it was to persuade her to eat.

She was also somewhat puzzled. Jessie's cooking was good and everything she cooked was delicious. It was also very suitable for her appetite.

"Okay." Alyssa looked at Jessie's concerned eyes. She did not want to reject her good intentions and nodded.

Alyssa went to the dining room, and Emmett waited for her in the hall.

Jessie carried the dishes to the dining table. The color of the dishes was bright and emitted a

fragrance.

It was rare for Alyssa to have an appetite. She could not help but have a big appetite and started to eat.

Seeing Alyssa finally have an appetite to eat, Jessie could not help but smile.

She sat down opposite Alyssa and looked at Alyssa eating with a gentle expression. She said with some emotion, "When young master was young, his temperament was gentle and polite. Anyone who saw him would like him. Later on, he had a big accident and became like this. His nature was good. Sometimes, when he was muddleheaded and did something wrong, don't hold it in your heart. Just tell him."

“The young master looks very cold. In fact, he is soft-hearted." Jessie seemed to have thought of something in the past. There was a trace of emotion in her tone.

Alyssa paused and her eyes were slightly hot.

Almost no one had said these words to her.

Although Hazel also cared about her, Hazel was very afraid of Emmett. Other than helping her scold him, she did not help her with anything else.

Jessie had seen Emmett when he was young and naturally loved him very much. When Jessie looked at him, it was as if she was looking at her own child.

Her words could be considered to have reached Alyssa's heart.

When others looked at her and Emmett, they would always think that Emmett was the "Young Master of Lawrence family.” This way, no matter what Emmett did and treated her better, or perhaps did something overboard, others would think that Alyssa should reconcile with him.

But Jessie was the only one who said these words, treating them like two ordinary people in love, and sincerely comforted her.

Alyssa nodded. "I know, Jessie."

She knew that Emmett was not a bad person and knew how good he was to the people he cared about. She also understood the softness of his heart.

However, what he did this time could not let Alyssa compromise easily.

Human nature was sometimes very weak. If she compromised once, she would compromise a second time.

Furthermore, this time, it was a matter of principle.

Although Emmett had encountered a big accident, as the only successor of the Lawrence family, he was also doted on by thousands of people. Naturally, he had developed a self-centered personality.

He was overbearing. As long as it was something he decided on, he had to do it, regardless of whether it was right or wrong.

Alyssa would not spoil him like this.

This time, she had to fight to the end.

However, she was really curious about Emmett in the past. "Jessie, tell me a little about Emmett when he was young."

"Young Master was very likable when he was young. Every time the old man attended a banquet, he would bring the young master along because the young master made him very proud. Those young girls all liked to circle around young master, and so did the little boys..."

Alyssa heard Jessie talk about Emmett when he was young. She found it hard to believe that Emmett was the boy who always smiled and played with children. Now that Emmett looked at others, he could scare that person to death.

Time was really a skilled thief.

It would always steal people's happiness and youth.

Jessie could not stop talking about Emmett when he was young and Alyssa was also very interested.

She clearly said that she would go out after filling her stomach, but she ate for an hour.

When she came out of the restaurant, she found Emmett sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed as he took a nap.

He rested one of his elbows on the arm of the sofa. He held his chin with his palm, and there was a new light green stubble on his chin. His beard was thin and not very obvious.

However, his face was a little haggard.

Alyssa had not looked at Emmett very carefully recently. Now that she took a closer look, she realized that Emmett had become thinner. He looked even colder and sharper now.

Perhaps because her gaze was too focused, Emmett, who was originally dozing off, suddenly opened his eyes.

Emmett's eyes showed a momentary confusion. He quickly sat up straight and regained his clarity. "Have you eaten?"

Alyssa nodded.

When they were leaving, Alyssa noticed that Emmett did not intend to bring any bodyguards.

Emmett started the car and asked her, "Where do you want to go?"

Alyssa tilted her head and thought for a while before saying, "Let's go for a walk."

Emmett's expression did not change. "Okay."

Then, Emmett directly brought her to Golden Fountain Club.

The car stopped at the entrance of Golden Fountain Club. Alyssa smiled weakly and sent Hazel the address. "Golden Fountain."

Hazel replied with a string of ellipsis and clearly felt somewhat speechless.

Alyssa took her phone to reply to Hazel. She suddenly felt a shadow fall beside her. She turned her head in shock and saw Emmett leaning over to help her unfasten her seatbelt.

He looked at the seatbelt and focused on undoing it for her. He didn't even glance at her phone before he left.

Alyssa let out a sigh of relief and got out of the car with her phone.

The parking lot was opposite of Golden Fountain Club. If the two of them wanted to go to Golden Fountain, they would have to cross the road.

Alyssa looked left and right and found that there was no car driving over. She walked in front and prepared to cross the road.

She always walked a little fast. Emmett was about to catch up with her when suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something and looked to the side. He saw a black car rushing towards Alyssa like it was out of control.

Emmett's expression changed, but he did not have time to think. His body reacted faster than his brain.

When he could think, he had already quickly walked behind Alyssa and pulled her into his arms. In a panic, both of them fell to the ground.

The car sped past the top of their heads and hit the guardrail on the side of the parking lot.

"There was a car accident!"

"Call the police!"

The security guards outside Golden Fountain had already seen this scene. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Emmett hugged Alyssa and felt his heart suddenly stop beating. The whole world became silent in an instant.

Alyssa only realized what had just happened when she heard the noise beside her ears.
