CEO's substitute bride (Alyssa)

He put down his chopsticks and was about to touch his phone when Alyssa stopped him.

“Finish your meal first. Xavier should have settled this matter.” Alyssa was actually not sure if this matter had been resolved.

She thought that it was Emmett who ordered Xavier to do it. Naturally, she was very confident that Emmett would get rid of this matter. After she returned, she did not pay attention to this matter anymore. She only focused on preparing the dishes and waiting for Emmett to come back.

In the end, Emmett still forcefully took his phone and called Xavier.

Xavier had been busy all day and had just fallen asleep. He was woken up by the phone and didn’t even look at who it was. He said loudly, “Who is it so late at night?”

“Me.” Emmett only said one word and Xavier immediately woke up.

Xavier was silent for a while, and his tone became much gentler. “Young master, why don’t you take a look at what time it is? If you don’t need to sleep, you should investigate the matter of Dylan getting the trending search. Alyssa was also involved. I have been so busy these few days because of this that I have no time to go home and have a good sleep.”

Xavier and Emmett had a deep relationship, so he naturally wouldn’t beat around the bush when it came to proper business.

“I don’t know what the person behind this is trying to do, but he must know about the relationship between Alyssa and you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be like a piece of candy. Every time, he would stick to Alyssa with the trending search and make us fearful when dealing with it.”

Alyssa only noticed that Emmett’s expression had always been very gloomy. As for what Xavier had said, she didn’t know.

After hanging up the phone, the two of them sat in silence for a long time. They did not speak for a long time.

“I saw Dylan in the company today.” Alyssa was the first to break the silence.

When Emmett heard her, he suddenly raised his head to look at her. He could not help but furrow his brows.

“Don’t worry, I didn’t say anything.” Alyssa said with a faint smile, “But he didn’t mention anything about the trending search.”

Emmett stood up. “I’m full.”

Alyssa also stood up and followed him. She said loudly, “Emmett Lawrence, don’t lie to yourself anymore. You have clearly investigated about the matter and found out that your brother, Dylan is behind all this. But because you did not dare to believe it, you lied to me and said that you did not find anything.”

Alyssa had been holding it in for a long time.

Emmett’s back stopped and he turned back to look at Alyssa.
