Chapter 164

Xavier noticed that from the moment they met until now, Alyssa hadn't even looked at Emmett

He wanted to help Emmett, so he said, "Are you leaving now? Let's eat together. Emmett drove here by
himself. You can help him drive after he drinks later."

"Don't you have Frank? You can also call the driver." Alyssa smiled slightly. Her expression was very
normal.

Emmett looked up at Alyssa.

Recently, he had left early and returned late. At home, he had only met Alyssa in a hurry. They had not
even spoken a few words.

This was the first time he had looked at her so closely this week.

They were all living in a villa but when he looked at her like this, he actually felt that he missed her a
little.

Alyssa also felt Emmett looking at her. The expression on her face could not help but become stiff.

She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would not be able to maintain the calm on her face.
She lifted her foot and was about to leave.

Just as she took a step forward, her hand was caught by someone.

Immediately after, a low and slightly hoarse voice sounded beside her ear, "Let's go back together."



His tone was calm, without any emotion.

His hand was warm and dry, tightly wrapped around her hand, making her feel warm and inexplicably
at ease.

Alyssa curled her fingers and opened her mouth, saying, "I still need to go back and write."

Emmett's expression darkened. He did not give her a chance to refuse and directly pulled her into the
elevator.

Xavier and Arthur also followed in.

Alyssa had no place to vent her anger. She could not pull her hand back.

The anger in her heart was rising.

Emmett lowered his eyes and looked at her snow white face. She was clearly very angry, but she could
not flare up. For some reason, it made his mood that was depressed for the past few days become
slightly better.

Xavier, who was at the side, saw the expressions of Emmett and Alyssa.

He felt that Emmett really had low EQ.

He made her so angry, but he was still happy?



Was he a pervert?

He suddenly thought of Hazel. Let alone letting him hold hands, even if Hazel could say a few words to
him, it would be enough for him to be happy for a few days.

What a contrast.

When he compared himself with others, he would be angered to death!

…

Arthur was also a little depressed. The scene where he thought the three men were drinking and
chatting became the scene where he and Xavier watched Emmett and Alyssa display their affection.

"Are you going to eat this?"

"What about this?"

Emmett turned the table and asked Alyssa about every dish.

Alyssa did not know what Emmett was going to do today, especially since Xavier and Arthur were still
there. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and eat a lot of food.

While she was eating, the three men had been drinking.

When she came back to her senses, she found that there were already quite a few empty bottles on
the table.



And Xavier was crying on Arthur's shoulder like a child.

Arthur looked disgusted and wanted to push Xavier away.

He could not beat Xavier in a fight, and his strength was not as strong as Xavier's. Naturally, he could
not push Xavier away either. He had no choice but to accept his fate and let Xavier lie on his shoulder
and cry.

Alyssa wanted to calm herself down a little, but she was too shocked that she couldn't hide it.

"I don't know what I did wrong either."

"No, I did do something wrong but it was not that serious."

After the initial shock, Alyssa suddenly felt sad.

At this time, her shoulder suddenly felt heavy.

Turning around, she found that Emmett had already closed his eyes and was leaning on her shoulder.

Is he drunk?

Alyssa nudged Emmett but he did not react at all.

She and Arthur looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.



…

Alyssa had to put in a lot of effort to send Emmett to the car.

Because the drunk Emmett did not allow to be touched by anyone other than Alyssa. When the waiters
came over to help him, Emmett immediately shook them off rudely.

Xavier was drunk like a dead pig. He immediately got someone to carry him into the car.

Arthur closed the car door and walked to Alyssa and Emmett's window. "Can you do it?"

"There are bodyguards at home." If she could not drag Emmett, she could ask the bodyguards to help.

Arthur raised his eyebrows and did not say anything.

Alyssa was stunned for a moment and said, "At most, I will knock him out and let the bodyguard go
upstairs."

She did not know what was wrong with Emmett. When he was drunk, he would not let anyone touch
him. He would only let her touch him.

She seriously suspected that this man was pretending to be drunk.

Alyssa felt a subtle change in Arthur's eyes. If she did not interpret wrongly, there was an additional
admiration in Arthur's eyes.



What else could she do? She could not carry him on her back.

Alyssa drove Emmett home.

The drunk Emmett was very quiet. He slightly closed his eyes and allowed Alyssa to help him walk
inside.

Although Alyssa was a little tired, she still gritted her teeth and dragged him upstairs.

She herself did not understand why she did not ask the bodyguards to help.

She threw Emmett onto the bed and went to the bathroom to get a wet towel to wipe his face.

Because when he was in Golden Fountain Club, he refused the waiter to help him. His shirt was
wrinkled and three buttons on his collar were unbuttoned. He pursed his lips and closed his eyes. He
looked less cold and fierce than usual and was not that dangerous.

Alyssa took a deep breath and used the towel to wipe his face.

As soon as she reached out her hand, he suddenly opened his eyes.

Alyssa was shocked and quickly pulled her hand back.

Emmett's eyes were a little empty. Suddenly, he flipped over and sat up on the bed. He stared straight
at Alyssa.



Alyssa asked, "You're awake?"

Emmett immediately rushed over and hugged her. He softly called out, "Mom!"

Alyssa's hand shook and the towel in her hand fell onto the bed.

The towel was wet and would wet the sheets. Alyssa quickly picked up the towel and threw it to the
side.

After Emmett hugged her, he did not move.

Alyssa did not dare to move because Emmett was so soft that it was scary.

After a while, Alyssa's entire body became stiff and sore. She tentatively called out, "Emmett?"

Emmett did not respond. Alyssa tried to push him.

When she moved, Emmett was like a robot that had been turned on. He hugged her tightly and kept
calling her "mother.”

Alyssa was speechless.

After a while, she patted Emmett's back and said in a trembling voice, "Let go of me first. I will change
your clothes."

After saying this, Alyssa shivered.



However, her words had an inexplicable effect on Emmett.

He obediently let go of Alyssa and opened his arms, looking like he was waiting for her to change his
clothes.

He half-closed his eyes and the coldness on his face was no longer there. He completely trusted
Alyssa.
