CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 379



Chapter 379

Frank did not go out immediately.

Emmett asked him, "Do you have anything else?"

Frank said with a serious expression, "Young Master, the information about these two is not complete, especially Sampson. His identity is definitely not simple."

Before they left for the island, when Sampson and Alyssa had been captured by the paparazzi, Emmett had sent him to investigate this man called Sampson West.

At that time, the information Frank found out was very superficial.

Sampson was a man who had appeared out of thin air. He seemed to have a simple and clean identity, but he was suspicious in every way.

But Frank was not sure what Sampson’s purpose was.

"Is that so?" Emmett looked at him and picked up Alyssa's information again. "Why do I feel that Alyssa's identity is even more complicated?"

Frank was familiar with Emmett and naturally did not miss the glimmer of interest in Emmett's eyes.

"Yes, Miss Moore's identity is indeed not simple." Alyssa was the biological mother of Emmett’s child and Emmett’s wife. How could her identity be simple?

But it was also very obvious that Emmett was very interested in Alyssa.

Could this be the legendary fate?

Emmett raised his eyebrows when he heard that. "Is there a hidden meaning in your words?"

Frank bowed his head respectfully and did not speak anymore.

What could he say? Even if he said, would Emmett believe him?

Emmett did not seem to want to talk to him anymore. "You can leave now."

After Frank left, Emmett was slightly lost in thought.

He only came back to his senses when Angela grabbed a piece of information from him and started to draw.

She laid out the piece of information she took and mumbled, "I will draw an Empett."

Emmett glanced at it and found that it was Alyssa's personal information. He reached out and took it back, stopping Angela from draw on it.

Although Angela was usually very obedient, she would be angry if she was disturbed when she was playing. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She pouted and looked at Emmett. "Humph! Give it to me!"

Emmett casually placed Sampson's information sheet in front of Angela. "Use this drawing. The other half of the paper is blank."

Angela raised her chin and said with a magnanimous tone, "I forgive you."

After saying that, she lowered her head and continued to draw.

Emmett was angered by her and laughed. She was so young that he could not bear to do anything to her. In the end, he only reached out and rubbed her head.

Because of this, he was despised by Angela.

"Aiya, don't touch me!" Angela's brows knitted into a ball, looking like she was angry.

Emmett changed the topic. "Didn't you say you were drawing me? Let me see."

Angela immediately took the paper to him in high spirits. "Look, this is you."

Emmett looked at the red and green lines on the paper and calmly took out the tablet. "Do you want to watch cartoons?"

Angela nodded like a chick pecking at rice. "I want to watch!"

Angela carried the tablet to the sofa to watch cartoons. Emmett continued to work.

When it was time to get off work, Frank came back.

He held a property ownership certificate in his hand.

"Young Master, here is what you want."

He handed the property ownership certificate and key to Emmett.

Emmett looked at the property certificate and the key in front of him. He then looked at Frank with an unfathomable expression and asked, "Where did you get the money?"

Frank hesitated for a moment. "It's your money."

In the past, Emmett trusted him very much that he had given him a card.

Kathleen still did not know much about Emmett, so she did not know that Frank had such a card.

Later, when Emmett got into the accident, Kathleen fired him. This card was still in his hands, and it was finally put to use again.

Alyssa's place of residence was also a high-rise residential area.

Those who lived there were all rich people.

However, no matter how rich they were, they could not be as rich as the Lawrence family.

The last thing Emmett lacked the most was money.

Moreover, Emmett had always been willing to spend money on matters related to Alyssa.

Frank had long understood this point of Emmett. He knew that Emmett wanted to live next door to Alyssa, so he did not care about money at all and directly settled the matter.

Emmett did not say anything after listening to what Frank said. He just stood up and walked towards the sofa.

Angela had fallen asleep when she was watching the cartoons. She was currently sleeping on the sofa with Emmett's jacket over her head.

Emmett wrapped his jacket around Angela and picked her up from the sofa.

Even though his movements were light, Angela still woke up.

She half opened her eyes and softly called, "Daddy."

"Yes, we are going to eat." Emmett reached out and touched her head.

When she just woke up, Angela was a little spoiled. She said softly, "I want to eat potato chips. . ."

Frank followed behind them. When he heard Angela's voice, he felt like his heart was going to melt.

However, Emmett was not moved. He coldly and firmly rejected Angela's request. "No way."

Angela woke up a little and said aggressively, "I want to eat potato chips."

Emmett's voice was still cold. "No."

Angela pursed her lips, looking disgusted. "Empett is a big monster."

Emmett snorted. "You're a little monster."

Angela blinked her eyes and tears fell down on her cheeks. "Waaah, I am not a monster. Monster is so ugly. I am Angela. . ."

Emmett looked down at Angela and calmly walked into the elevator.

Men who had children were soft-hearted. Frank could not stand it anymore and wanted to help Emmett coax the child.

But at this moment, he saw Angela stop crying. She reached out her hand to wipe the tears on her face. Her nose twitched and she turned her head to the side, not looking at Emmett.

It seemed like the Young Master still did not know how to coax the child.

However, Angela's self-regulating ability was also quite strong.

Emmett and the others did not go back first. Instead, they went to a restaurant for dinner first.

Frank still had to send them over later on, so they ate together.

It was probably because she had seen Frank all day, Angela was very friendly to him. When they ate, she would even give Frank food.

When Emmett saw that, he stopped her, "Angela, eat by yourself."

Angela refuted, "Uncle wants to eat too."

Emmett gave her a piece of onion and said, "Uncle can eat it himself."

Frank said, "It's okay."

Angela did not like to eat the onion and took out the piece of onion with her hand in disgust.

Emmett put it back for her. "You are not allowed to be picky about food."

Seeing this, Frank could not help but laugh. "Young Master, Angela doesn’t like onions, just like you. Didn't you also not like to eat the onion?"

Emmett was slightly startled.

Angela took this opportunity to pick out the onions and throw them into Emmett's bowl. She blinked her eyes and smiled sweetly. "Daddy, you eat it."

Emmett was speechless.

In the end, Emmett still did not eat the onion.

He did not like to eat it so there was no need to force himself.

Perhaps because Frank saved Angela from eating the onion, Angela had already called him "Uncle Frank" very intimately when they left the restaurant.

Frank drove them to the residential area where Alyssa lived. The group of people had just walked to the door when the door opposite side also opened at this time.

Alyssa looked at the two big and small people standing on the opposite side. She was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted, "Mr. Lawrence? You guys. . ."

Alyssa had not even finished her words, when Angela had already pounced towards her. "Pretty big sister!!!"
