CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 414

Angela jumped off the sofa and ran towards Kathleen.

Alyssa watched from the side. There was no special emotion on her face.

She only looked at Kathleen a few times before turning around and ordering the maids to serve tea.

Even if Kathleen was an uninvited guest, she was still a guest. So Alyssa should be polite to her.

Although Alyssa did not know why Kathleen hated her, Angela's surname was Lawrence.

She could see that Kathleen also had some genuine feelings for Angela. Kathleen did not treat Angela unfairly when she hated her.

So she would not stop Angela from getting close to Kathleen.

Angela rushed towards Kathleen.

Kathleen carried Angela into her arms and kissed her face, "Angela, did you miss aunt?"

"I miss aunt."

Kathleen smiled and picked her up to talk to her.

At this time, the maid brought tea over, "Miss Lawrence, please have some tea."

Kathleen put Angela to the side and looked up at Alyssa.

Alyssa did not dodge and directly met Kathleen's gaze.

Their gazes met in the air and Alyssa did not show any signs of fear. Seeing this, Kathleen curled her lips and sneered.

Alyssa turned her head and handed the table in her hand to the servant, "Take Angela upstairs to play."

After she finished speaking, she said to Angela, "Ella, Mommy and aunt have something to talk about. Go upstairs and play for a while. Later Mommy will come up to look for you, okay?"

"Okay." Angela nodded and was taken away by the maid.

As soon as Angela left, Kathleen no longer covered her feelings. Her face was full of contempt. “Angela is like Emmett. She is kind to people and all kinds of people can enter her eyes, including you."

Three years ago she did not take a liking to Alyssa and three years later she still did not take a liking to Alyssa.

This woman was always an eyesore!

"Is that so?" Alyssa pulled the corner of her mouth and her expression did not change, "What did Miss Lawrence say? I do not know very well. But I know there is a misunderstanding between Miss Lawrence and Emmett. You can just look for him."

Alyssa saw Emmett's attitude towards Kathleen clearly that day.

These two siblings were clearly at odds.

Emmett would not listen to Kathleen's words now.

So Kathleen had no choice but to look for her.

Alyssa couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. People were always like this. They always bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Kathleen thought that Alyssa would be an much easier target than Emmett.

But actually, Kathleen had very little contact with Alyssa, so she did not know Alyssa very well.

Listening to Alyssa hiding needles in her mouth, Kathleen was a little surprised, but she became even angrier.

"There was a misunderstanding between Emmett and me. Isn't it because of you?" Kathleen coldly looked at her and emphasized her tone. "If you can see the situation clearly, you should know what to do. You should leave Emmett by yourself."

Alyssa was lying on the sofa and her tone was undisciplined, "You should tell these words to Emmett.”

"Alyssa Moore!" Kathleen was so angry that she suddenly stood up from the sofa. "Don't force me."

Alyssa took a deep breath and pretended to be puzzled. "Emmett does not know that Miss Lawrence came to the house today, right?"

Although the two siblings of Lawrence family were not like each other, they also had some similarities.

For example, they liked to order people around.

It was as if everyone else should be controlled by them and listen to their words.

Alyssa was a little annoyed but she maintained a calm smile on her face.

Kathleen's expression was ugly as she stared at her. "Did you get someone to inform Emmett?"

"Who doesn't know Miss Lawrence is his older sister? Since you came to the house, they naturally have to inform Emmett." Actually, Alyssa was not sure if those people had informed Emmett.

However, Kathleen clearly believed her words.

Kathleen was still a little afraid of Emmett in her heart. She asked Alyssa unwillingly, "Aren't you following Emmett for his power and money? How much do you need if I ask you to leave him?”

Kathleen had never taken a liking to Alyssa. She felt that Alyssa was doing it for Emmett's money and power. So Kathleen always looked down on Alyssa.

Hearing this, Alyssa sneered. "Even if I am doing it for his power and money, why would I leave him just because you will give me some money? It’s a way better for me to stay with him and be the mother of his child, isn’t it?"

After she finished speaking, she seemed very curious and asked Kathleen, "However, how much do

you plan to take to get me to leave Emmett? If the amount is satisfactory, I can consider your request."

Alyssa's obvious teasing tone made Kathleen tremble in anger.

"I hope you can always be so arrogant!" Kathleen gritted her teeth and said this before she waved her hand and left. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The moment Kathleen left, Alyssa let out a long sigh of relief.

What a crazy woman!

She leaned on the sofa and thought for a moment. Just as she was about to go upstairs to look for Angela, she heard the noise outside the door.

She raised her eyes to look at the door and saw Emmett walking towards her with long strides.

Alyssa's expression was slightly surprised. The maid really called Emmett to call him back.

Emmett walked straight to her and asked, "Where is Kathleen?"

"She left." Alyssa curled her lips and said. "She left because I pissed her off."

After saying that, Alyssa looked at Emmett innocently.

Hearing her, Emmett only raised his eyebrows and did not say anything. He turned around and walked out again.

Seeing him turn around, Alyssa stood up and asked. "You're leaving now?"

Emmett did not even turn his head. Instead, he walked even faster.

Alyssa's expression turned serious.

She purposely said that Kathleen left because she had pissed Kathleen off. She also wanted to test Kathleen's position in Emmett's heart.

Now, it could be seen that. . .

Kathleen had no place in Emmett’s heart. Emmett had really turned against her. He didn't care what had happened between Kathleen and her.

Then why did he come back?

Emmett had received a call from a servant earlier. When he heard that Kathleen had come to look for Alyssa, he subconsciously worried that Alyssa would be bullied by Kathleen, so he drove straight back.

After all, Kathleen was so ruthless that she refused to save Alyssa back then. Now that she deliberately went to look for Alyssa when he was not at home, it was naturally impossible for her to shake hands and make peace with Alyssa.

Kathleen came there to cause trouble for Alyssa.

In the end, when he came back, Alyssa did not look like she was at a disadvantage.

Emmett got into the car, loosened his tie, and drove to the Lawrence Group.

He entered the Lawrence Group and just got out of the elevator when a secretary came over to tell him that Kathleen was waiting for him in his office.

Emmett smiled meaningfully. "How long has she been waiting?"

The secretary said, "She just came."

"Didn't you say there was a meeting? Let's have a meeting now." As he finished speaking, Emmett walked straight to the meeting room.

The secretary was at a loss. Does the president deliberately want Miss Lawrence, the vice president to wait?

In the entire Lawrence Group, everyone knew that Emmett and Kathleen were siblings.

In this situation, were they at odds?

In the past, Emmett and Kathleen did not get along well, but only the Lawrence family knew about it. Outsiders did not know the inside story.

The secretary just stood there for a moment and went to pack up the things needed for the meeting.

Kathleen waited for a long time but she did not see Emmett return. Could it be that Emmett really went to find Alyssa when he knew that she went to see Alyssa?

Even if he lost his memory, Alyssa was still so important to him?
