Alyssa immediately dialed Hazel’s number.

“Hello?” An exhausted voice came from the other end of the line. “Is something wrong? Did something happen?”

“Did you buy the trending topic on Skylar’s topic?”

“Didn’t you refuse? Have you changed your mind? Wait, if you want me to do it, I could contact my friends right now.” Hazel said excitedly, clapping her hands together.

“No, it’s not that. I just saw that her videos had gone up the trending search again. I thought you were the one who paid the site to get it up there.” Alyssa explained as she scrolled down the Internet. No matter how far she had scrolled, Skylar’s videos were everywhere.

“What? Really?” Hazel said and then made some noises. Alyssa guessed she might browsing the Weibo.

As expected, after a few seconds, Hazel burst into laughter. “Although I didn’t do this, I’ll send some flowers to whoever did. As I’ve said, karma’s going to get her one day. I just didn’t expect that it would be this fast!”

Even as Alyssa hung up the phone a few minutes later, she still couldn’t get her mind off the trending list. She stared at her screen. How could it have gotten up there again even after the suppression of the Moore family?

Who did it? Could Skylar have offended other people? Perhaps they were the ones who wanted to give her a taste of her own medicine?

It wasn’t impossible. In all her years of living in the Moore family, she had seen how Skylar acted. From being a large immature brat to an impatient and self-centered woman, she had offended quite a lot of people throughout her entire life. And some of them were even members of the upper class as well. It was possible that they’d all gang up on her.

Alyssa didn’t dwell this matter too much after all it had nothing to do with her. Looking at the time, she felt that Emmett should’ve finished his meal by now, so she headed to his study. Besides, they had quite a lot to talk about.

They didn’t have time to even discuss the matters of what had transpired in the Interview, and with everything that had happened on the Internet, it was best that she present herself to him. Just to make sure that everything was clear with him.

The door of the study was tightly shut. Alyssa hesitated and then knocked on the door.

“Come in.” A hoarse voice came from the inside.

Alyssa pushed the door open and walked into the study. Just like always, the man was still sitting behind his desk, with his back facing her. She could only see his long arms and broad shoulders.

Although she was used to this appearance, she couldn’t help but be a little puzzled. Emmett didn’t want her to see his face, yet he still bothered to go out when needed be. Didn’t that mean that he was allowing the rest of the world to see his face?

From her knowledge and according to plenty of rumors, Emmett was an extremely isolated person. Not only did he not go out, but he also hated socializing. The man was said to lock himself in his house for years, never going out…yet, from what she had observed, that wasn’t exactly true. So why was he still hiding his face from her?

“What’s the matter?”

Alyssa tilted her head and looked at him curiously. “Do you know what happened online recently? In Weibo?”

There was silence for a couple of seconds before he finally responded, “There’s no need to mention what had happened in the past. You’re my wife so you’d better behave. Nobody can touch you here.”
