CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Chapter 323

Even though George was so angry that smoke was almost coming out of his head, Emmett still looked

calm and composed. "But I don't feel the benefits that the Lawrence Group has brought to me."

George snorted coldly. "The food you have, the cloths you wear and the reputation you have, which

one of them isn't given to you by the Lawrence family?"

"I don't need these things. Even without the support of the Lawrence family, I am still Emmett

Lawrence. I can still get money and fame. But what about you? Without the Lawrence family, who are

you? You are good for nothing." Emmett's words were too direct. It was as if he had fallen out with

George.

"Do you really think you are very capable?" After George finished speaking, he sneered, "You can try to

bankrupt the Lawrence Group."

The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became tense.

The two of them looked at each other. After a long while, Emmett squeezed out a sentence from

between his teeth, "Where is my daughter?"

"How do I know where your daughter is? You hid her up, didn’t you?" George smiled, but his smile was

fake.

Emmett clenched his fists under the table, and a trace of ruthlessness appeared between his brows.

In George's memories, Emmett was actually quite adorable when he was young. It was just that after

his mother passed away, the father and son became more and more distant.

Especially during these few years, Emmett's aura became stronger and stronger. Emmett was clearly

his biological son, but most of the time, he was unfathomable to the point where he could not see

through him.

It was precisely because of this that George was sometimes a little afraid of Emmett.

However, Emmett had a fatal weakness: he was too sentimental and valued relationships too much.

As long as George could grasp this weakness of Emmett, it would be enough for him to control

Emmett.

When George thought of this, his expression became meaningful. "My granddaughter must be a cute.

When you have time, remember to bring her back to the old residence for me to see. After all, she is

the bloodline of Lawrence family. The conflict between us has nothing to do with her."

After he finished speaking, he gave Emmett a deep look and got up to leave.

The maid stood outside the restaurant. When she saw George come out, she respectfully called out to

him, "Mr. Lawrence.”

In the next moment, there was the sound of plates falling to the ground came out from the restaurant.

The sound was crisp and ear-piercing.

The maid walked in in in a panic. She saw Emmett with his head lowered, his body bowed slightly, and

his hands on the dining table. His entire body exuded a violent aura.

The ground was a mess. There were leftover food and broken cutlery. With one look, one could tell that

Emmett had swept those things onto the ground.

The maid carefully walked up and did not dare to ask any more questions. "Mr. Lawrence, let me clean

this place up."

Emmett ignored her.

The maid could tell that Emmett was not in the mood to care about her, so she called the other two

maids in to clean the restaurant.

Emmett lowered his head. His eyes were filled with hatred and bloodlust.

What George said just now had other meaning. On the surface, he seemed to be denying that he had

sent people to take Angela away. However, it was clear that he was threating Emmett with his last

sentence.

George's hidden meaning was very obvious. If the two of them could live in peace, Angela would

naturally be fine as well.

Otherwise, it was hard to say how he would treat Angela.

George looked as if he had victory in his hands. That's the best explanation that George had got

Angela.

Angela was taken away by someone sent by George. His goal was to use Angela to threaten Emmett.

Although his relationship with George was very cold, they had never really played tricks on each other.

Emmett did not expect that George had planned to kidnap Angela very early.

Since George could play such a dirty trick, Emmett was even more certain that his mother's matter had

other secrets.

And as for Alfred's matter, there must be something more.

However, the matter had its priorities.

Emmett needed to figure out the order in which things had happened.

Emmett felt that all the "accidents" might still have to be based on the kidnapping case back then, so

he needed to make it clear first.

…

Emmett did not know how Dylan and Justin persuaded Frances. That night, Frances decided to return

to Holston City with them the next day.

However, Emmett did not care about how they did it.

He and Frank flew back to Holston City by flight in the middle of the night.

Emmett went straight to find Alyssa when he returned to Holston City.

However, he did not see Alyssa at her residence, when he reached there.

Alyssa was not at home, so he could only call her.

As soon as he got through to Alyssa, he directly asked, "Where are you?"

Alyssa had been a little busy recently and spent most of her time in the production. Occasionally, she

would follow Amelia to other production teams to relax.

When Emmett called her, she and Amelia had just gone to other production teams to take a breather

and return to the Lost City production team.

When Alyssa heard him say so, she asked in surprise, "You're back!"

The trace of joy in her tone did not escape Emmett's ears. The haze between his brows dissipated a

little and was dyed with a slight smile, "Where are you? I’m coming to find you."

Alyssa looked around and ran to the corner to answer the phone. "I am in the production. I will come

back to look for you."

Emmett was a big shot. There were too many people in the Film and TV studio complex and it was

inconvenient for Emmett to come, as he would be seen by others.

However, Emmett ignored her suggestion and decided on his own. "Wait for me."

"It's not convenient for you to come here.... Hello… Emmett?" Alyssa took her phone to the front and

found that Emmett had hung up the phone.

On the other side, Emmett hung up the phone and instructed Frank. "Let's go to the Film and TV Studio

Complex."

Frank turned the car around and drove to the Film and TV studio complex.

When they arrived at the Film and TV studio complex, Emmett told Frank to go back first.

Alyssa should have driven here by herself. When he got back, he could just drive Alyssa's car.

He did not know where Alyssa was, so he could only wait for her near the entrance of the Film and TV

studio complex.

He stood under the shade of a tree and sent a text message to Alyssa. “I'm here at the entrance."

Alyssa ran out as soon as she received the text.

Amelia saw it and asked her, "Alyssa, why are you leaving so soon today?”

As Alyssa ran, she turned her head and said to Amelia, "I have something to do. I will go back first."

"Okay, then you can go."

"See you later."

After Alyssa came out, she looked around and did not see Emmett.

Suddenly, a man in green short-sleeved hoodies walked toward her.

The man wore a black cap on his head. The brim of the cap was lowered to cover his face. He was

wearing a pair of black pants and looked very casual.

Although Alyssa could not see his face clearly, she could still feel the fierce aura radiating from his

body.

This feeling was a little familiar.

Only when the man walked in front of her did Alyssa's eyes widened in disbelief. “Ed… Ed…”

She was so shocked that she could not call out his name for a long time.

Emmett pulled his hat up and raised his eyebrows to look at her. His tone was full of disdain. "It has

only been seven or eight days since I left the country, but you’ve become a stammer?”
