CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 77

Frank called Alyssa again and there was still no answer. He then realized something was wrong. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Just as he was about to call Emmett, Emmett took the initiative to call to ask about the situation.

"Why isn't she back yet? You didn't receive her?"

The second half of the sentence made Emmett's tone clearly colder.

"No. I called Young Madame but she did not answer. I suspect that she might have left long ago. Otherwise, she would have left a long time ago.” Something must happened.

He didn't dare to say the last three words.

After a while, Emmett's suppressed angry voice came from the other end of the phone. “Then why don't you go and find her?"

"Yes."

After hanging up the phone, Emmett picked up his coat and was about to walk out.

He found a car in the garage and drove out. Only then did he have time to think.

Aurora coming to find him today must have given Alyssa a big blow.

Although she looked very fierce, she was actually a paper tiger. He could crush her in a few moves.

The possibility of her accident was very small. It was more likely to hide and be sad.

At this moment, his phone suddenly rang.

He looked down and found that it was Xavier calling.

"What is it?"

Xavier still sounded casual. "Did you eat gunpowder? You sound so angry.”

Emmett could not be bothered to talk to him. He hung up the phone.

In the corner of the bar, Xavier looked at the phone that had been hung up. He clicked his tongue and took a picture of Alyssa sitting not far away. He sent it to Emmett.

He hung up his phone?

Emmett would call him immediately!

Sure enough, Emmett called quickly. His voice was cold and unapproachable. "Address."

"Are you asking for help?" Xavier had a rare opportunity to pinch Emmett. He did not want to tell him so soon.

"There are still vacancies in Africa's expansion business."

"F * ck!" Xavier cursed and told Emmett the address of the bar.

Emmett always threatened him with this, but it worked every time.

Emmett had done this kind of thing before. Xavier had been careless and made a big mistake, so he was driven to Africa by Emmett.

Emmett didn't say anything in the dictionary. He always did what he said.

…

In the bar.

Alyssa finished the wine in her glass and was not drunk at all. She ordered another dozen beers.

She was born with a good alcohol tolerance. It was not easy for her to get drunk. This was a good thing in normal times. But now she came to get drunk.

Alyssa was beautiful and outstanding. She was single and there was a dozen bottles of beer in front of her. One look and one could tell that she was in a bad mood and came to get drunk. There were many men who kept looking at her and were ready to move.

Finally, two men stepped forward and tried to talk to her.

"Beauty, alone?"

Alyssa glanced at them. These two men were both wearing suits and looked like elites. They also had

some temperament. Their positions in the company should also belong to the higher management category.

Alyssa ignored them and continued to drink.

She did not reject him but acquiesced.

The two men thought they understood what she meant and sat down beside her.

Alyssa had already taken off her coat. She was wearing a sewing shirt which outlined the curves of her beautiful body and attracted people's attention.

The two men beside her looked straight at her.

"Beauty, what's the point of drinking alone? Let's drink together!"

Alyssa could tell what they were thinking and smiled. "Okay, let's drink together and have fun."

The man was excited and asked her, "What do you want to play?"

Alyssa tilted her head and lifted her chin. She looked both charming and innocent. "Let’s play dice."

The two men heard her and smiled at each other. They smiled confidently. "Sure."

This woman still wanted to play dice with them? When she got drunk, it would be them playing with her.

The two men were originally full of confidence, but after playing a few rounds, they found that the wine

in front of Alyssa did not move at all. They had already drunk a few bottles and filled their stomachs with wine. When they heard people talking, there was a response.

Alyssa smiled innocently. "You guys are really good at drinking."

She poured wine for them as she spoke.

Xavier, who was at the side, had wanted to come over when the two men came to Alyssa. However, when he saw Alyssa's calm look, he did not move and planned to wait and see.

Seeing that the two men were about to get drunk, the wine in front of her did not move at all. It made his hands itch to come up and play a few rounds with Alyssa.

At this moment, there was a commotion at the entrance of the bar.

Xavier looked up and saw Emmett walking over.

Emmett was tall and had an extraordinary temperament. He could recognize people in the crowd with just a glance, as if they were glowing.

The lights in the bar were dim. Xavier could not see Emmett's face clearly, but he could vaguely feel that Emmett was not in a good mood.

Xavier thought that things were bad. He hurriedly walked towards Alyssa, wanting to make up for it.

However, he did not walk as fast as Emmett.

Emmett saw Alyssa as soon as he entered the door.

He saw her smiling as she sat with another man playing dice and drinking wine. It seemed that she was quite happy.

Ha! He was so anxious that he almost flied the car to come over. On the other hand, she was having fun with other men.

Alyssa had her back to the door. Naturally, she did not see Emmett. When he got closer, she vaguely felt a little cold on her back. The familiar aura got closer and closer. She could not help but turn her head back.

Emmett just happened to walk behind her. Alyssa was stunned for a moment. "Why are you here?"

The two men were already half drunk. When they saw another man coming over, they asked, "Who is this?"

Alyssa turned back to look at them and said seriously, "My cousin. He is handsome, right? Many girls chase after him."

Emmett's face was dark. He looked at the empty bottle in front of her and calculated how much she had drunk.

After saying that, she reached out and pulled Justin's arm. "Come and sit!"

"Alyssa, let’s go home!" Emmett's expression was cold as if he was covered with a layer of ice. His face was tense. Clearly, it was a sign of anger.

"I don't want to go back. I don't have a home." Alyssa lowered her head and drank all the wine in front of her. The smile on her face disappeared in an instant, leaving only disappointment and frustration.

She had not been loved by her parents since she was young. She had grown up with great difficulty and had once looked forward to finding a person who was in love with her to form a happy little family. However, she was pushed out by her mother to marry Emmett for Skylar.

What family did she have?

She did not have a home.

Emmett heard her and stared at her for a few seconds. He moved his lips but did not say anything to comfort her. He just sat down quietly beside her. "If you want to drink, I will accompany you.”

His voice was as low and magnetic as usual, but when he heard Alyssa's ears, he felt that it was better than usual.
