Chapter 214

Alyssa started to live without leaving the house.

Emmett went to the Lawrence Group every morning and returned home with the documents in the
afternoon. He said that he was afraid that she would be bored and stay at home with her.

In fact, Alyssa did not have a good expression when she saw him. The two of them either looked at
each other and did not say anything, or they quarreled.

However, even if they quarreled, it was only Alyssa who coldly provoked him. Emmett did not care at
all.

"Jessie said that you did not eat lunch?”

Emmett walked in from outside the door and walked straight to Alyssa's side to sit down.

Alyssa held the computer with her slender fingers tapping on the keyboard as if she did not hear
Emmett's words. She was completely focused on the computer screen.

This was not the first time something like this had happened. Emmett's face was dark as he covered
her laptop. There was a hint of warning in his voice, “Alyssa.”

Alyssa tried a few times but could not move his hand. She tilted her head to look at him disappointedly,
“Take your hand away. I am not finished.”

Emmett's big hand was still on her laptop. His expression was cold.

"Didn't you hear what I said?"



“I have no appetite and do not want to eat.” Alyssa got up and walked around Emmett. She walked to
the sofa furthest away from him and sat down.

Emmett pursed his lips and his eyes narrowed, He seemed to be impatient and ready to explode at any
time.

Both of them had not been having a good time recently. Alyssa did not treat him well and he did not let
Alyssa go out. Neither of them had gotten any benefits. Neither of them was the winner.

After a while, Emmett compromised. "I'll take you out for a walk." Alyssa directly rejected him. "No."

Emmett's expression turned cold. He took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. "You have to go even if
you don't want to."

His tone was a little heavy. Alyssa was still a little afraid of him in her bones. She was so frightened by
his tone that she subconsciously trembled.

Emmett's expression became even worse when he saw this. He got up and walked out.

Outside the door.

Jessie walked over with a tray. There was a bowl of porridge and a few delicate side dishes on the tray.
She saw that Emmett's expression was not good and asked, "Did you two quarrel again?"

Emmett pinched the space between his eyebrows. He gritted his teeth and said, “She just wanted to
piss me off!"

Jessie rarely saw Emmett so emotional. She was slightly stunned and wanted to laugh.

When she was young, she entered the Lawrence family as a servant to serve Emmett's mother. She
could be considered to have watched Emmett grow up.



Later on, after the kidnapping case, Emmett was sent out of the country. So she quit her job and left the
Lawrence family.

However, she had always been concerned about Emmett.

Emmett was gentle when he was young. He was polite when he saw people, and he looked good. His
elders liked him when they saw him. Some time ago, when Emmett found her, she found it hard to
believe that the person with the cold and gloomy aura in front of her was the young master of the
Lawrence family.

Jessie shook her head. She sighed and advised him, "Young Madame is a person with her own
opinions. She is also a little stubborn. How can she be happy if you don’t let her go out like this?"

When Jessie spoke, she paid attention to Emmett's reaction. However, she could not tell if he was
listening to her from his expression.

This child was too scheming.

Just when she thought Emmett did not listen to her words, he suddenly said, “Jessie, if I don't do this,
she will leave."

"What's wrong? Where is she going?" Jessie was confused.

Although both of them had some conflicts, as a bystander, she could feel that they both cared a lot
about each other.

Emmett did not say anything else.

Alyssa was a stubborn person. In terms of feelings, she could not tolerate sand in her eyes.



In the matter of Dylan, he had indeed let Dylan go too much, to the point that he had implicated Alyssa
so much.

Alyssa felt that he had used her and allowed her to be trapped in the whirlpool of gossip and rumors.

And the truth was that.

Emmett could not deny it.

Dylan's series of actions were very unusual. Combined with what Sawyer had said before in made
even worse.

If the case of his mother back then had something to do with his aunt, Frances, then Dylan, as
Frances's son, could his abnormal actions have something to do with what happened back then?

He had expected that if this matter continued to develop, it would have an impact on Alyssa.

But if he stopped it immediately, he might miss out on important information.

In the end, it was still his desire to investigate his mother's case that gained the upper hand.

Sometimes, he hoped that Alyssa that woman could be a little more stupid. That way, she would not be
able to leave him.

Even if he did something wrong, he could fix it before she found out.

During this period of time, her series of reactions and actions proved that she was ready to leave him at
any time.

Just a thought, he would not allow it.



As long as he thought of the day when he might not be able to see Alyssa when he returned home, he
felt as if he was in an ice cellar. His entire body felt cold.

He thought for a long time but could not think of a feasible way. There were still men outside who had
ideas about Alyssa.

He was at his wit's end.

He was like the last struggle of a traveler who had reached the end of his road. As long as Alyssa was
pregnant with his child, she would definitely not leave him.

Alyssa herself had not received much care from her family since she was young. If it was her own child,
she would definitely not bear to let him not have a father.

Therefore, as long as she had a child, she would definitely not leave him.

Every time he looked at Alyssa's increasingly cold eyes, his heart would shake.

However, when he thought of this again, his thoughts would become firmer.

“Emmett.”

Alyssa's voice came from behind him. Emmett froze for a moment, thinking that he might be
hallucinating.

During this period of time, Alyssa almost did not take the initiative to talk to him.

He did not turn around and heard the voice behind him. "Didn't you just say that you wanted to take me
out for a walk in the afternoon? Does that count?"

Emmett turned around and saw Alyssa standing by the door looking at him.



His eyes were fixed on her and he nodded, "Yes."

“Then wait for me. I will change my clothes.” Alyssa said expressionlessly.

She turned around and went back to her room. The moment the door closed, Alyssa revealed a smile
of success.

She took out her phone and called Hazel. "I just told Emmett. Where do we meet in the afternoon?"

Hazel thought for a moment and said, "Go to the supermarket, to the mall, to the cinema. Just pretend
that we met by chance.”

"Okay." Alyssa had been holding herself back at home recently. It was fine if he did not let her go out,
but Hazel wanted to see her and Emmett did not even let her in.

She did not know whether she should admire Emmett's cautiousness or she should pity her.

The only benefit was probably that Emmett would answer all her requests.
