CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

Chapter 60

Alyssa actually remembered to cook for “Justin”. After all, that was what she had promised him when he lent her his lawyer. Although he is a bastard, a promise is still a promise.

But as soon as they entered the shopping mall, she had already lost track of time. Her colleagues quickly pulled her from store to store, pushing a bunch of fabric to her face as they discussed intently the day they just had.

Seeing as the sky had turned dark, she quickly found an excuse to stop, “I’m so tired. Why don’t we find a place to rest?”

“Sure! I saw a drink shack by the end of the mall.” All of them headed up that direction.

Seeing as they were finally distracted, she used this time to take out her phone, only to see that she had two missed calls from “Justin”.

“Justin” really wasn’t the type to sit patiently and wait for her to reply. She squeezed her eyes shut, not expecting him to call her twice. At this point, she couldn’t even imagine how angry he must’ve been after the second call.

She stood up, looking as if she had just been electrocuted. “I have something else I need to attend to, so I need to go back first. Thank you for today. I’ll make sure to treat you guys for dinner.” She quickly said, bowing her head.

Once she had left the mall, she walked towards the bus stop while she gave him a call.

The phone rang a few times before it was picked up.

“Where are you?”

His voice was already low. So when he was in a bad mood, others would feel that there was a bit of sullen in his voice.

She could feel a slight chill running down her neck.

Rubbing her skin, she managed to respond to him, “I’m still outside, but I’ll be back soon. If you’re already hungry, then you can find something to eat first.”

She had tried to keep her voice firm, but uncertainty soon latched on to her words. She glanced around, watching as the cars zoomed across the highway.

“I asked where you are.” He repeated.

The impatience in his voice couldn’t be concealed any longer.

“I’m in City Center.” She turned around to take a look and immediately relayed to him her location.

Ever since “Justin” had thrown away the black card in front of her, she no longer dared to provoke the man over such a trivial matter.

‘He asks all these questions as if he’s my husband.’ Alyssa thought incredulously, shaking her head, but she didn’t say another word after that.
