CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Emmett’s face was still solemn. He walked over silently.

Alyssa curled her lips and threw the court summons on the table. “So, from now on, I just have to stay

in this cage and wait for the day of the trial. I will stand in the dock and let the people of Lawrence

family slander me, right?”

Emmett stood in front of her with a cold and oppressive aura.

Then, he slowly opened his mouth and said, “No.”

Alyssa was stunned for a moment.

Emmett looked at her and repeated, “Nothing like that will happen.”

Alyssa smiled. “Whatever you say.”

Anyway, she did not believe what Emmett said anymore.

Now that things had come to this, she would not blindly believe Emmett like a fool.

Last night, she thought it was strange that Emmett would suddenly come home for the night.

It turned out that there would be a subpoena from the court come today.

After breakfast, Emmett went out again.

Maybe he went to the company, or maybe he went to the hospital.

Anyway, Emmett had so many things that he could not finish recently.

Alyssa stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor and watched Emmett get into the

car and leave. She then took out her phone and called Hazel.

“Hazel, I want to ask you a favor.”

“Tell me what it is.” Hazel always agreed to her requests.

Alyssa would not ask Hazel to ask too much.

“Get some reporters or paparazzi to come to Emmett’s villa.”

When Hazel heard that Alyssa wanted to find the reporters, her heart tightened and her tone became

serious, “Alyssa, what are you doing?”

“I have my own plans.” Alyssa paused and said, “Don’t worry, I know my limits.”

Hazel heard her say so and did not ask anymore.

After hanging up the phone, Alyssa sat quietly for a while and then started to throw things in the room.

She smashed all the things that could be smashed in the room.

The sound of her smashing things attracted the maids over.

The room was in a mess. Alyssa was holding a lamp in her hand and was about to smash it to the

ground.

Her face was cold and her expression was indifferent and determined. It made the servants think of

Emmett.

Alyssa threw the lamp in her hand to the ground.

Bang!

The lamp broke into pieces.

After that, she raised her head. There was no emotion in her eyes. She only said coldly, “You are not

allowed to come in.”

When the maids heard her say that, they did not dare to come in. They only looked at Alyssa nervously,

afraid that she would do something that would hurt herself.

If Young Madame had any mishap, they would not be able to bear the consequences.

The maids quickly comforted Alyssa. “Young Madame, calm down. We will not come in.”

At this time, Jessie heard the sound and walked over.

When she saw the mess in the room, Jessie was also shocked, “Young Madame, what’s wrong? If

there is anything, I will call Young Master and ask him to come back first.”

“Don’t call him.” Alyssa walked two steps forward and avoided the glass on the floor. “None of you

should care about me or call him. Just leave me alone. I am very annoyed and don’t want to see you

guys. All of you get out of here.”

Jessie looked troubled and called, “Young Madame.”

Alyssa frowned and looked at her, “You go out too!”

Jessie had never seen Alyssa so unreasonable.

She had come to the villa for so long, but this was the first time she saw Alyssa so angry.

Thinking about what had happened recently, Jessie understood Alyssa’s thoughts.

Jessie turned her head and instructed the servants, “All of you, go out.”

Jessie brought a group of maids out of the villa and went to the courtyard.

The weather was still cold. Alyssa stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor and

looked at the group of maids shivering in the courtyard. She also saw bodyguards calling Emmett.

She did not have much time.

Alyssa went to the cloakroom and found a winter sports suit with a thick coat. She also found a peaked

cap and put her laptop, household register, passport, and other things together. Then, she carried her

bag downstairs.

She carried her bag to the kitchen.

There was a storeroom behind the kitchen. There was a back door in the storeroom. This door was

used by the maids to transport groceries.

However, there were bodyguards guarding the back door also.

Alyssa placed her bag in the storeroom. She found a box of gasoline in the storeroom. After locking the

back door, she walked to the hall and closed the door as well. She then locked it.

Although she did not know the reason why Emmett put gasoline in the villa, it was very useful to her

now.

Alyssa carried the gasoline to the second floor and slowly started to pour it down the corridor. Finally,

she returned to the hall.

She lit the lighter and looked towards the door.

Outside the door, there were already bodyguards who realized that something was wrong. They were

currently knocking on the door.

“Young Madame! Young Madame, are you okay?”

Alyssa did not hesitate and directly threw the lighter onto the sofa that was filled with gasoline. The sofa

immediately lit up.

With a bang, it burned all the way to the second floor. The fire was very strong.

Alyssa quickly returned to the storeroom at the back of the kitchen. She found her backpack and hid

behind the door.

The fire went from the sofa in the living room to the corridor on the second floor, which was exactly the

center of the villa. So after seven or eight minutes, the fire grew very strong. The bodyguards also

started to break the door to come in.

There were a lot of bodyguards. Some people smashed the door from the hall, while others smashed

the back door.

There were not many bodyguards guarding the back door. Soon, they opened the door and rushed in.

Recently, the news about Winston had spread all over the Internet. All the maids and bodyguards in the

villa knew about it.

Alyssa was just a little girl in her early twenties. It was natural for them to think Alyssa would commit

suicide under such great pressure.

Therefore, the bodyguards naturally felt that Alyssa ignited the villa to kill herself.

They smashed open the door and rushed into the villa.

Alyssa took the opportunity to sneak out while they were not paying attention.

Emmett’s villa was built halfway up the mountain. Alyssa suspected that he had bought the whole area

when he built the villa because there were no other villas nearby.

This also made it easier for Alyssa to escape.

She hid in the woods and watched coldly as the bodyguards and servants all rushed into the villa.

However, because the fire was too strong, they all ran out. The top of the villa was covered in smoke.

At this time, two cars stopped at the entrance of the villa.

A group of reporters ran to the entrance of the villa and started taking photos crazily. They kept asking

the reporters and servants questions.

The scene became very chaotic.

Alyssa hooked her lips and turned around to walk down the small road.

She had achieved her goal.

In the past twenty years, she had already endured enough in the Moore family.

She put up with it because she had a blood bond with Aurora.

From the time Winston’s incident happened until now, she had been enduring it because she believed

in Emmett.

But they all let her down.

Perhaps Emmett didn’t lie to her. He wouldn’t let her sit in the defendant’s seat and be slandered by the

Lawrence family.

However, she did not want to use such a humble attitude to entrust her fate to a man.
