Chapter 201

Emmett stopped eating and his expression changed.

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.

This time he did not deny or admit it. He only said in a cold voice, "I will handle it."

There was no warmth in his eyes. It was very cold.

Alyssa subconsciously trembled. She opened her mouth but could not say anything.

His eyes were so cold that Alyssa felt that the current Emmett was very unfamiliar. He was cold and
distant.

Alyssa froze on the spot.

Perhaps she had never entered his heart before.

He had something on his mind that he did not want to tell her, so she could not help but say it out loud.
Emmett, however, looked as if he was reprimanding her for meddling in other people's business.

That night, the two of them were lying on the same bed with their backs to each other. They did not hug
each other or communicate with each other.

…

There were still a lot of things in the company, and Alyssa was still busy.

She did not sleep well last night. Alyssa took the afternoon break and went to the tea room to make
coffee for herself.



Only when the water in the cup overflowed did Alyssa come back to her senses.

She took a sip of coffee and took out her phone to go to Weibo to take a look.

Today was Friday. The person who said that he wanted to announce Alyssa's identity, there was no
response from the blogger. This should be the result of Xavier and the rest's handling yesterday.

She clicked on the Weibo icon and opened it. Before she could see anything, a phone call came in.

It was from Xavier.

Why would Xavier call her?

He couldn't find Emmett again. That's why you called her?

Alyssa picked up the phone. Before she could say anything, Xavier's anxious voice came from the
phone. "Alyssa, where are you?"

"I'm in the tea room. Is there anything wrong?" Alyssa heard his anxious voice and thought that
something had happened to Hazel. Her heart immediately rose.

In the end, Xavier said directly, "Don't move there. I will come to find you immediately. Don't hang up
the phone."

Why did Xavier's tone sound like something had happened to her?



Alyssa asked tentatively, "Did something happen?"

She thought that Xavier had called her because he could not find Emmett or had something to do with
Hazel. In the end, he told her not to move. He wanted to come and find her.

"Don't ask. I will be here soon."

Xavier was panting, as if he was running.

Recently, Alyssa was always on the trending topic. She was already used to it.

She realized that something big must have happened, and that was why Xavier would do such a thing.

She did not hang up the phone. Instead, she logged out of the phone and opened Weibo.

When she saw that her Weibo was filled with photos of her, her ears buzzed. She was stunned on the
spot. Her mind was blank and she could not react for a long time.

Her single photo.

Her and Emmett's intimate photos.

The picture of her eating with Dylan.

The picture of her entering and exiting the Nine Clouds Media.



And pictures of her in the past when she pretended to be ugly.

Also… there was a picture of a marriage certificate.

The picture of the marriage certificate was very clear, but she looked at it several times before she was
sure that the two names on it were Emmett Lawrence and Skylar Moore…

The phone in her hand suddenly fell from her hand as if it weighed a thousand pounds. It fell to the
ground.

The door of the tea room was pushed open at this time.

Alyssa acted as if she did not hear anyone pushing the door in. She maintained the position of the
phone sliding out of her hand and did not move.

Xavier saw Alyssa's appearance and secretly cursed in his heart.

He walked over in quick steps and saw the phone on the ground.

The phone fell to the ground but there was no broken screen. The screen was still lit. It was the picture
of the marriage certificate.

Xavier picked up her phone and turned it off. He pulled Alyssa's arm and walked out.

"Let's go out first."

Alyssa was like a doll without consciousness. She was pulled out by Xavier.



There were security guards outside the door. The security guards escorted them out. Behind them, the
Nine Clouds Media staff pointed at Alyssa.

Although they scolded her loudly and did not throw eggs at her, Alyssa felt as if she had been stripped
naked and exposed in front of everyone.

The first few trending search topics on Weibo were all related to her.

And the first topic was: #The most shameless mistress.#

From the moment she was forced to marry into the Lawrence family to today when she was forced to
become the "third person" that people called her, she didn't know what she had done wrong.

She only had a mother who didn't love her and only decided to love a legitimate husband. How did it
become like this?
