Chapter 301

It took Alyssa a few seconds to understand what Henry meant.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" She turned to look at Henry with a cold expression.

Henry smiled, looking quite innocent. "I also didn’t know until now.”

Alyssa laughed. How could she believe what he said?

She turned around and looked at the entrance of the banquet hall. Emmett was not there.

After Emmett officially took over the Lawrence Group, he would attend many events and dinner parties.

However, the banquet and events he attended were all very high-end. That’s why, Alyssa had never
thought that Emmett would also attend the banquet that Henry attended.

On the other hand, the Grant family and Lawrence family did not have any business dealings with each
other, so they rarely got involved.

Therefore, she never thought that Emmett would come to this banquet.

She now felt that Henry did it on purpose.

"You are my female companion now. Your mission tonight is to be with me." The smile on Henry's face
deepened. He even withdrew his arm and signaled Alyssa to follow him.

Alyssa's emotions were a little complicated.



If Emmett came and found out that she and Henry were attending the banquet together, he would
definitely be very angry.

He might beat Henry up.

Alyssa thought about it and decided that it would be better to turn herself in first.

Taking two steps forward, Alyssa reached out her hand to protect her stomach. "My stomach hurts a
little. I need to go to the bathroom."

Henry stopped and looked at her with a faint smile.

After Alyssa finished speaking, she also felt that these words sounded a little familiar.

At the beginning of the year, she had thrown Henry away at the airport and left the country alone. She
had used the same tactic at that time.

Alyssa was also a little embarrassed. She explained very sincerely, "This time, my stomach really
hurts."

She thought about it and made up a random reason. "My stomach is not good. These two days I have
eaten a little messy and have a little diarrhea."

Henry nodded and said, "I will go with you."

This man was really...



Alyssa let out a breath and let Henry accompany her to the bathroom.

After Alyssa went into the woman's room, she hid in the cubicle and called Emmett.

The phone rang twice and was picked up.

"Alyssa."

Emmett's voice was low and cold as always. When he answered her phone, he was used to saying her
name directly. But after a long time, Alyssa actually felt that the way he called her name was especially
intimate.

Alyssa organized her words and asked, "Are you going to attend a banquet tonight?"

"So are you trying to track me down?” Emmett's voice had a hint of a smile. "Don't worry. I don't have a
girlfriend. Frank will go with me."

Hearing this, Alyssa thought to herself that she would be miserable.

She did not know what to say after that.

Seeing that Alyssa did not speak for a long time, Emmett asked, "What is it?"

"I..." Alyssa really could not say it. Or rather, she did not dare to say that she accompanied Henry to
attend the banquet.



On the other side, Emmett waited very patiently for her to speak.

Alyssa hesitated for a moment and said, "It's good that you did not bring a female companion."

The smile in Emmett's tone became more obvious. "I'm going to the banquet venue now. I'll call you
later."

Alyssa said, "Okay."

After hanging up, Alyssa walked around in the bathroom anxiously.

Emmett was really going to attend this dinner. If she went out, she would definitely bump into him.

After thinking for a while, Alyssa gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She directly sat down on the
toilet.

She decided not to go out. She would stay here until the banquet ended!

She did not believe that Henry could run into the women's toilet to look for her!

Henry had been waiting outside for Alyssa. He waited left and right but did not see her come out even
after a long time.

Hence, he called her.

Without being able to get through to her, he thought that something had happened to her.



When the phone was about to be hung up automatically, Alyssa answered the phone, "Hello."

Henry heaved a sigh of relief and asked her, "Why aren't you out yet?"

The other end of the phone was quiet for a while before Alyssa's weak voice sounded. "I have diarrhea
and can't come out. You can go now, but I have to stay here for longer.”

Henry was speechless.

He knew that Alyssa did not want to attend the banquet with him, but he did not expect her to come up
with such a boring excuse.

Henry put his hands on his waist and said helplessly, "Alyssa, have you forgotten our agreement? If
you accompany me to the banquet, I will tell you what I know."

Alyssa really wanted to know something about the Lawrence family from Henry. However, she found
out that, compared to the incident in the Lawrence family, the angry Emmett was even more terrifying.

"At worst, you won't tell me. So you can just keep that to yourself. That’s it. Goodbye."

"Ding -"

Henry heard the phone being hung up. He stood there for a while with an unfathomable look on his
face. He didn't know what to think before he lifted his foot and prepared to leave.

At this time, a tall and slender man walked in front of him.



Henry narrowed his eyes and stood still. When the man approached, he called out to stop him. "Mr.
Lawrence, long time no see."

Emmett stopped and raised his eyebrows. He said casually, "Do you really want to see me?"

The last time Henry helped Alyssa escape, Emmett had threatened that he would teach the Grant
family a lesson. But in the end, he did not make the Grant family bankrupt.

Emmett did not have any pity for a man who had been coveting his woman.

But he knew very well in his heart that if he destroyed the Grant family, Alyssa would definitely blame
herself.

Henry also thought of what Emmett had done to the Grant family. His expression turned slightly cold,
but soon he laughed again. "No, I was just waiting for Alyssa to come out. I didn't expect to meet you
so coincidentally."

After Henry finished speaking, he smiled meaningfully.

As expected, Emmett's expression changed slightly when he heard the word "Alyssa" from Henry.

Emmett narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you talking about?"

"Your ex-wife, Alyssa." Henry said word by word, deliberately emphasizing the word "ex-wife.”

Henry saw that Emmett's expression had darkened. He added fuel to the fire and said, "She came with



me to the dinner. You two were husband and wife after all. Do you want to greet her when she comes
out later?"

Emmett sneered with a gloomy expression. He only cast a glance at Henry before walking straight to
the ladies' bathroom.

"What are you doing?" Seeing Emmett breaking into the ladies’ room, Henry asked with a trace of
disbelief flashing across his eyes.

Now that the banquet had just started, there were not many people in the ladies' room.

Emmett thought of the phone call Alyssa gave him just now and the smile on his face became even
colder.

Alyssa Moore, you are very capable.

At the entrance of the bathroom, he started knocking on the door of the first stall and then continued
one after another.
