Emmett ignored Xavier’s madness. He seemed to have sensed something and turned around to look in
Alyssa’s direction. He caught Alyssa who was about to run away.
Alyssa braced herself and turned to leave, but she was stopped by him.
“Alyssa.”
Alyssa turned to look at him and pulled out a stiff smile. “You guys continue. I am just passing by.”
After she finished speaking, she walked past them and went to the kitchen to pour a cup of water.
When she came out, Emmett and Xavier did not speak again.
On the other hand, when Xavier saw her, he smiled and tried to please her. “Alyssa, did Hazel call
you?”
“Yes.” Alyssa carried a cup of water to the empty sofa opposite them and sat down.
Xavier’s eyes lit up when he heard her.
However, Alyssa’s next sentence made the light in his eyes go out.
“She told me that you are a scumbag.” Alyssa smiled when she spoke. She did not look aggressive.
Xavier was upset.
“I was wrongly accused. I did not do anything to those two women. I was there that day…” Xavier
suddenly stopped. He looked up at Emmett and then shut his mouth.
Emmett must be so secretive. He had hung the companies of Golden Fountain and Nine Clouds under
Xavier’s name. And Xavier didn’t dare to say anything.
“I drank too much that day, so I stayed in Golden Fountain. I didn’t spend the night with those two girls.”
“Go and explain yourself to Hazel.” Alyssa looked coldly at Xavier.
Xavier’s face paled. “But she doesn’t answer my phone.”
“You can go find her. You should know where she is. If you can’t even explain such a small
misunderstanding, it’s better not to pester her.” Alyssa did not want to say more. She took a sip of
water from her cup and was about to leave.
Emmett, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly reached out and took the cup of water from her
hand. He directly took a sip of water.
“That’s me…” I drank it.
Alyssa saw that he had already drunk it and swallowed the rest of her words. However, her ears began
to turn red.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer skin was not as thick as Emmett’s. Moreover, there were still outsiders here.
Alyssa did not want her cup anymore. She turned around and ran upstairs.
Xavier watched her go upstairs and then said to Emmett thoughtfully, “Why didn’t I think Alyssa’s words
were so sharp before?”
Without waiting for Emmett to say anything, he said another sentence. “Her tone is almost as sharp as
yours.”
“Stop talking nonsense. Go find that little star of yours.” Emmett got up and went upstairs.
Xavier was a little speechless. “Are you not going to let me eat?”
Emmett turned to look at him expressionlessly. “Get lost.”
The bowl of salty and bitter noodles that he had eaten this morning was thanks to Justin.
Ever since Alyssa found out that he was Emmett himself, she had never treated him well, let alone
cooking.
He did not even have to eat, and Xavier still wanted to freeload?
Xavier did not know where he had offended Young Master Lawrence, but he had more important things
to do now, so he did not have the time to care about these things.
…
When Emmett returned to the bedroom, he saw Alyssa hugging the computer and nesting on the sofa.
She wore earplugs and looked at the screen unblinkingly, as if she was watching a movie.
Emmett walked over and leaned over to take a look. He realized it was Dylan’s movie.
He covered her computer with a cold face.
Alyssa pulled off her earplugs and asked him angrily, “What are you doing?”
She seemed to want to get angry, but she had some concerns. Although her expression did not change
much, there was still a trace of anger in her eyes.
She looked a little cute.
Emmett raised the corner of his mouth and looked at her with a smile that was not a smile. “You heard
it?”
Alyssa pretended to be stupid. “What did I hear?”
“The news about Xavier was created by the people of Moore family who bought the media on purpose.
Xavier’s influence in the entertainment circle is not small. Their goal is to divert the attention of the
public so that Moore Group can get down from the top and solve the problem.”
Emmett’s tone was slow and calm as he spoke. However, his eyes were locked tightly on Alyssa as he
observed her reaction.
“Who did it?” Alyssa thought for a moment and said, “Skylar?”
Other than Skylar who was so stupid in the Moore family, she could not think of anyone else.
Although Xavier was from the entertainment circle, the Nine Clouds Media was the leader of the
entertainment circle. They were many times stronger than the Moore Group.
Someone like him had been implicated by others. How could he let the Moore Group’s go so easily?
She had heard what Xavier had said before.
Emmett was noncommittal. His tone was somewhat serious. “Do you want me to help the Moore
Group’s get through this crisis?”
“What do you mean?” Alyssa thought Emmett was implying something.
“If you want me to help, I will. If you don’t want me to interfere, then I don’t care.” Emmett showed a
faint smile. It was obvious that he was doting Alyssa.
Alyssa had always thought that Emmett was too good looking. There were very few people in the
entertainment circle who were prettier than him. Even if there were, his temperament would not be as
good as Emmett’s.
Alyssa was momentarily dazed when she was looked at with indulgent eyes.
Did he start flirting with her again?
Would he really do as she said?
The two of them looked at each other. Neither of them spoke first, nor did they look away.
Until there was a knock on the door, “Young Master, Young Madame, you can eat now.”
Only then did Alyssa come back to her senses. She bit her lips and said, “I want you to help the Moore
group.”
“Okay.”
Without any hesitation, Emmett gave her an affirmative answer.
She didn’t really want to help the Moore Group. She just didn’t believe what Emmett said.
Helping the Moore Group’s wouldn’t do him any good. Instead, it was a troublesome and laborious
matter.
Intelligent people usually wouldn’t do such a thing.
…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Emmett agreed to help the Moore Group, he quickly put it into action.
First, all the negative news about the Moore Group’s disappeared. Then, those companies who wanted
to cancel their cooperation with the Moore Group’s all changed their minds.
Not long after, The Moore Group’s returned to the right path.
There were even people who took the initiative to seek funding for the Moore Group.
Alyssa saw all of this and her emotions were very complicated.
She thought that Emmett was just saying it. She did not think that he would really help them so
thoroughly.
There would occasionally be posts discussing the shady business of the Moore Group’s factory on the
Internet, but they would be deleted very quickly.
The media and Weibo seemed to have collectively lost their memories. They had forgotten about this
matter and no one had mentioned it again.
Hazel, who was doing movie promotions in other places, had also returned to Herton City. Alyssa just
happened to receive her salary, so she invited her to dinner together.
When she got off work, it was not Frank who came to pick Alyssa up, but other drivers.
Alyssa got into the car and reported the name of the restaurant, “Send me to this restaurant. After that,
you don’t need to come and pick me up. I will go back myself.”
Justin’s harvest this year was quite good. He counted the primary school’s work books and turned to
ask her, “Where are you going?”
“I’m having dinner with a friend.”
“I want to go too.”
Alyssa did not really want to take him there, but in the end, she could not change his mind. So she
brought Justin there.
When Hazel saw Justin, she asked Alyssa, “Whose child is this? I don’t know which relative of Moore
family has such good genes.”
Justin was a beautiful child. He had curly hair and white skin. He was still young and cute when he
smiled.
Justin introduced himself. “My name is Justin.”
Hazel spat out the tea in her mouth.
