CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Chapter 445

She remembered the plot structure of the 'Lost City', but there were some details that she could not

remember very clearly.

Now that she wanted to write the second part, she had to restudy the contents of the first part.

For the entire afternoon, Alyssa had been holding her tablet and watching "Lost City.”

Even when she was cooking, she placed the tablet on the glass counter and watched the series while

cutting vegetables.

Suddenly, she heard a loud bang outside the door.

Alyssa was stunned. After clicking on the pause button, she lifted her foot and walked towards the door.

Before she reached out to open the door, the door was opened from the outside.

An unfamiliar man in work clothes stood at the door.

Alyssa's expression turned cold as she asked, "Who are you?"

The man was a little intimidated by Alyssa and his voice was a little weak. "I am a locksmith. . ."

Alyssa's expression became even colder. "I did not call you to unlock the lock."

At this time, a familiar man's voice sounded. "I asked him to do it."

The man who unlocked the door stepped back and Emmett's handsome face appeared in Alyssa's line

of sight.

"Emmett?" Alyssa was so angry that she laughed. "Are you too idle so you ask someone to unlock my

lock? Don’t you know how to knock? Or at least, you can call my phone too!"

Alyssa reached out her hand and scratched her hair in frustration.

Emmett looked at her coldly. His tone was a little gloomy. "I have knocked and called you.”

Alyssa heard him and quickly went back to her room to get her phone.

She found her cell phone on the tea table in the living room. There were a few missed calls. They were

all from Emmett.

Emmett had indeed called her just now.

It must be because she had been watching Lost City, so she did not hear her phone ring.

She turned her head and found that Emmett had already followed her into the room. At this time, he

was sitting on the sofa.

He loosened his tie and leaned on the sofa, looking at Alyssa with a gloomy expression.

Alyssa put down her phone and turned around to pour him a glass of water.

Emmett took the water and took a sip. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

Alyssa was a little embarrassed but she still said truthfully, "I am watching TV."

Emmett sneered and did not say anything.

Alyssa glanced in the direction of the door again. After confirming that, Emmett was the only one who

came, she asked, "Where is Angela? Why didn't she come with you?"

When Angela was mentioned, Emmett's face slightly darkened. "She has a cold. I just came back from

the company. I'll take you to see her."

Alyssa moved her lips. The words reached her mouth but she swallowed them back.

A child's immunity was weak to begin with. It was normal for a child to get sick and catch a cold.

Moreover, it was not necessarily Emmett's fault.

Emmett himself was a patient now, wasn't he?

"Wait a minute. I need to change my clothes." Alyssa got up and went back to her room.

Not long after, Alyssa came out.

It was autumn and the temperature was suitable. It was neither too cold nor too hot. She wore a white

sweater and a skirt. She looked simple and warm.

Alyssa picked up her phone and urged Emmett, "Let's go."

Emmett stood up and put his hands into the pockets of his pants. He strode out.

The two of them entered the elevator at the same time.

Emmett turned his head to look at her. He saw her pursed her lips slightly, looking very worried.

"I've looked for a doctor. There's no problem. Children are prone to catch a cold." Emmett sounded like

he was comforting Alyssa.

However, his words did not affect Alyssa. She nodded perfunctorily.

Emmett's expression darkened and he did not speak anymore.

Twenty minutes later, the two of them arrived at Emmett's villa.

As soon as Alyssa got out of the car, she quickly walked inside.

She had lived in Emmett's villa before, so she was very familiar with the villa. When she entered the

hall, she directly ran upstairs to Angela's room.

Lying on the bed weakly, Angela was put on a drip, which was hung before the bed.

Alyssa walked over and softly called, "Ella?"

Angela's eyes were black and bright and her eyelashes were long but not perky. When she was asleep,

her eyes were closed and her eyelashes were directly covering the puffiness under her eyes.

Half of her small face was covered by the blanket and nose gently moved as she breathed.

She looked especially pitiful.

Angela slept very lightly. Alyssa only lightly called out and she opened her eyes.

She first rolled her eyes blankly and then when she saw Alyssa, she immediately narrowed her eyes

and smiled, "Mommy."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and wanted to hug Alyssa.

When Angele wes mentioned, Emmett's fece slightly derkened. "She hes e cold. I just ceme beck from

the compeny. I'll teke you to see her."

Alysse moved her lips. The words reeched her mouth but she swellowed them beck.

A child's immunity wes week to begin with. It wes normel for e child to get sick end cetch e cold.

Moreover, it wes not necesserily Emmett's feult.

Emmett himself wes e petient now, wesn't he?

"Weit e minute. I need to chenge my clothes." Alysse got up end went beck to her room.

Not long efter, Alysse ceme out.

It wes eutumn end the tempereture wes suiteble. It wes neither too cold nor too hot. She wore e white

sweeter end e skirt. She looked simple end werm.

Alysse picked up her phone end urged Emmett, "Let's go."

Emmett stood up end put his hends into the pockets of his pents. He strode out.

The two of them entered the elevetor et the seme time.

Emmett turned his heed to look et her. He sew her pursed her lips slightly, looking very worried.

"I've looked for e doctor. There's no problem. Children ere prone to cetch e cold." Emmett sounded like

he wes comforting Alysse.

However, his words did not effect Alysse. She nodded perfunctorily.

Emmett's expression derkened end he did not speek enymore.

Twenty minutes leter, the two of them errived et Emmett's ville.

As soon es Alysse got out of the cer, she quickly welked inside.

She hed lived in Emmett's ville before, so she wes very femilier with the ville. When she entered the

hell, she directly ren upsteirs to Angele's room.

Lying on the bed weekly, Angele wes put on e drip, which wes hung before the bed.

Alysse welked over end softly celled, "Elle?"

Angele's eyes were bleck end bright end her eyeleshes were long but not perky. When she wes esleep,

her eyes were closed end her eyeleshes were directly covering the puffiness under her eyes.

Helf of her smell fece wes covered by the blenket end nose gently moved es she breethed.

She looked especielly pitiful.

Angele slept very lightly. Alysse only lightly celled out end she opened her eyes.

She first rolled her eyes blenkly end then when she sew Alysse, she immedietely nerrowed her eyes

end smiled, "Mommy."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hend end wented to hug Alysse.

Alyssa already knew what she wanted to do. When Angela just reached out her hand, Alyssa reached

out and pressed down on her arm, "Don't move your hand, there is still a needle in your hand."

When Angela heard that, she turned her head to look at the back of her hand. She pursed her lips and

tears immediately filled her eyes, but she did not cry.

Seeing her like this, Alyssa's heart also tightened.

Alyssa touched her head and said gently. "It's okay. My Ella will recover very soon."

Angela nodded obediently, "Yes."

She used her other hand that did not have a needle to tightly hold Alyssa's hand. "Mommy, don't go."

"Mommy won't go. I will stay here with you." Alyssa smiled and kissed her forehead

Angela did not see her Mommy a day and night. So as soon as she laid on Alyssa’s arms, she

whispered something and quickly fell asleep.

Alyssa tucked the corner of Angela’s back for her and looked back as if she felt something. She saw

Emmett walk in at some point and stood behind her.

She was shocked by Emmett and said angrily, "When did you come in?"

Emmett did not answer her question. He looked at Angela's face and said, "She fell asleep again.”

"Yes." Alyssa stood up. As she walked out, she whispered to him, "How did she catch a cold?"

Emmett said indifferently, "Last night, she ran out of her room in the middle of the night to look for you."

He had always slept lightly. When he heard movement outside in the middle of the night and came out,

he saw Angela standing at his door barefooted. She was crying and asking him for her mother.

In the middle of the night, where was he going to find her mother?

In the end, he had no choice but to carry her to his room to sleep.

Even so, she still caught a cold.

However, when Alyssa called in the morning, Angela was still sleeping. At that time, Emmett did not

know that Angela had caught a cold.

Alyssa heard him and walked to the door. After closing the door, she turned to Emmett and said, "When

Ella wakes up, I will bring her back."

When Emmett heard that, his expression turned slightly cold. "What do you mean?"

"Ella needs me to take care of her now, so I need to take her back." Alyssa smiled after she finished

speaking. "Or do you want me to stay?"

Without waiting for Emmett to speak, Alyssa denied again, "You don't want me to stay."
