CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 363

After listening to Xavier's words, Emmett said indifferently, "Are you done?"

Seeing that Emmett was about to leave, Xavier had no choice but to follow. "Emmett, just hear me out. Don't just leave after listening to me say one or two sentences every time."

"My time is precious. I don't want to waste it on meaningless things." Emmett walked to the car as he spoke.

At this moment, he turned to Xavier and asked, "Are you trying to follow me to the Lawrence family?"

Xavier took a deep breath to calm down himself. However, he could not help but shout angrily, "Are you possessed by someone else? What the hell are you talking about?"

Emmett ignored him and turned to instruct the bodyguards behind him. He said without a trace of emotion, "In the future, put this gentleman on the blacklist of the Lawrence Group."

After he finished speaking, he bent down and got into the car.

The black car drove away. Xavier stood where he was and stomped his feet in anger. "Emmett!"

Sometimes, he felt that it was not became Emmett lost his memory, but he had been possessed by a devil.

In the past, although Emmett had a bad temper, at least he was very cautious. The current Emmett was not even willing to listen to anything at all.

Bang!

The sound of the door opening and closing came from behind him.

Accompanying it was the sound of high heels clicking.

Xavier turned his head and saw Kathleen's face that was similar to Emmett's, but was especially disgusting.

Kathleen crossed her arms with an arrogant attitude. Her tone was disdainful, "It's you again."

Xavier's expression also turned cold. “Kathleen, did you do something to Emmett?"

"Are you joking? Emmett is my younger brother. What could I do to him? He lost his memory because he was seriously injured and his brain was damaged. It has been three years but he couldn't remember anything. This was heaven's will. Don't come looking for him again in the future."

Kathleen finished her warning and coldly snorted. She then turned around and returned to the car.

Just now, she was about to drive when she saw Xavier and Emmett talking.

She waited until Emmett left before getting out of the car to say these words to Xavier.

Xavier was quite persistent. Emmett had not remembered him over the past three years, but he insisted on seizing every opportunity to approach Emmett.

But what was the use of it?

Emmett would never remember them.

Thinking of this, Kathleen revealed a satisfied smile and drove away.

In the car.

Emmett leaned against the back of the chair and rested for a moment with his eyes closed. He suddenly opened his eyes and asked the driver, "How many times has Xavier blocked my way at the company's entrance this month?"

"More than a dozen times." Actually, the driver could not remember clearly. So he could only give a vague answer very carefully.

Hearing this, Emmett did not say anything anymore.

When the car stopped at the entrance of the Lawrence Mansion, the driver reminded Emmett, "Mr. Lawrence, we are here."

As soon as the car stopped, a bodyguard came over and opened the door for Emmett.

Emmett had just walked to the entrance of the hall when he heard a series of a child’s babbling.

"You. . . . That’s not right. . . I want a big castle. . ." The little girl's voice was childish and full of vigor.

Emmett walked into the hall and saw Angela sitting on the floor. She was chubby like a meatball. A circle of servants surrounded her and built a castle with her.

She was still mumbling something, but she spoke so fast that the maids at the side were all dumbfounded. They could not understand what she was saying at all.

At this time, Marilyn walked over with fruit, "Angela, get up and eat the fruit."

Angela lowered her head and focused on building her own castle. She said a few words clearly, "I do not want to eat."

Hearing this, Marilyn's expression was a little unhappy. She pointed to the castle in front of Angela and instructed the maid, "Put these things away."

After she finished speaking, she squatted down and picked Angela up and placed her on the sofa.

Angela still wanted to run but Marilyn's expression darkened. "Sit down!"

Angela was scared by Marilyn and the expression on her round and tender little face froze. Her eyes immediately turned red. She curled her lips and crossed her arms as she turned her head to the side. "Humph!"

Just as, she turned her head, she saw Emmett.

Her eyes lit up as soon as she saw Emmett. With tears flashing in her eyes, she immediately laughed. Her short legs swayed on the edge of the sofa a few times as she turned around and got down from the sofa. She ran towards Emmett. "Empett!" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Angela had just finished her third birthday not long ago. Her ability to speak was a little better among her peers. However, she was always unable to speak Emmett’s name correctly.

Emmett's expression was still indifferent, but his ink-like eyes still flashed with a trace of warmth.

He bent his knees and knelt down, stretching out his arms to catch his daughter who was running towards him.

Angela wrapped her little arms around his neck and habitually stretched out her small hands to play with his hair.

She had been like this since she was young. Every time Emmett hugged her, she would grab his hair. But she would not use too much strength. She just felt that grabbing his hair was fun.

Marilyn did not notice Emmett just now. She only reacted when she saw Emmett walk over with Angela in his arms. She called out. "Emmett, you're back."

Emmett glanced at her, his eyes were as indifferent as usual. He looked at her as he looked at strangers.

He carried Angela and sat down on the sofa. He let her sit on his lap facing him. With a serious look in his eyes, he instructed her in a serious tone, "Call me Daddy."

Angela also imitated him and called him seriously, "Daddy."

"Yes." Emmett replied and reached out to touch her head.

In the next moment, however, Angela called out again, "Empett!"

Her eyes were still red. She sat on his lap and smiled proudly.

Emmett felt something flash through his mind, but it seemed like there was nothing.

Angela thought Emmett was angry when she saw Emmett staring at her. She grabbed his hand, slipped away from his legs and ran away.

Emmett was afraid that she would fall. So when she slipped off his leg, he even reached out to help her.

However, how could a small child notice these details. The moment Angela landed on the ground, she ran away quickly.

There were two maids who followed her very consciously.

Emmett's gaze was fixed on her until Angela's little figure disappeared. Only then did he withdraw his gaze.

This was her common practice. Every time she provoked him, she would quickly slip away and find a place she thought was hidden.

Marilyn saw Emmett's series of reactions towards Angela and her expression was a little awkward.

But very quickly, her expression returned to normal and tried to make her tone as natural and gentle as

possible. "Emmett, have you eaten?"

Emmett sounded very unhappy when he spoke to her. His deep voice carried a sense of alienation. "Since you don't know how to take care of a child, don't come here to look for Angela again in the future."
