CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 397

Alyssa only took a cursory look around before she sat down on the bed.

Angela took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed to sit side by side with Alyssa.

In the past when Alyssa looked at Angela, she felt that Angela was very cute. Furthermore, now that she knew that Angela was her biological daughter, she felt that Angela was very cute no matter how she looked at it.

Alyssa touched her head and lowered her head to kiss Angela's face.

Angela opened her eyes wide and also lifted her body to kiss Alyssa's face.

After she kissed, she giggled. She probably thought it was very fun.

Alyssa kissed her again and Angela climbed onto her body.

The two of them rolled on the bed and Angela giggled harder when Alyssa tickled her.

When Angela was tired of playing, Alyssa held her small hand and lay on the side.

Feeling that someone was looking at her, Alyssa propped herself up and sat down. She saw Emmett standing by the door, not knowing when he was here.

Alyssa sat up straight and pulled Angela up. She said gently, "Your father is here."

"Daddy!"

Angela excitedly called him and got off the bed. She ran over and hugged Emmett's legs.

Angela was so small that she clung onto Emmett's leg like a doll. The scene was strangely harmonious and warm.

Emmett lowered his head and saw Angela staring at him. He bent down and picked her up.

Angela wrapped her arms around his neck and sniffed his body.

Emmett raised his eyebrows and said. "What do you smell?"

"There is no sourness." Angela said with a puzzled expression.

Emmett sat down with her in his arms and asked patiently, "What sourness?"

Alyssa already knew what Angela was going to say. She hurriedly wanted to stop it.

"If you are jealous, you will be sour."

"Angela!"

But she still was not quick enough to stop Angela.

When Angela finished, she even said proudly, "Auntie Alyssa said you were jealous."

Alyssa, “…”

She did not know what to say.

Emmett gave Alyssa a meaningful look and Alyssa could not guess his current mood.

Alyssa tidied her clothes and sat upright beside the bed. She looked down but did not look at Emmett.

In the next moment, she heard Emmett's low voice, "She is not aunt. She is your mummy."

"Mummy?"

Angela pouted and pulled Emmett's tie. She refuted him in a serious tone, "Auntie is not Mummy."

Her words stunned Emmett and Alyssa.

Although Angela was only a little over three years old, they could not treat her as a child who did not know anything.

She already had her own thoughts.

To let her accept Alyssa's new identity, she needed time and appropriate methods.

They could not be too impatient.

After a short period of depression, Alyssa calmed down.

If she really had died three years ago, she would not even be able to see Angela now, let alone let Angela call her mother.

Moreover, the people beside Angela all these three years were Emmett and Marilyn. She had just met Angela not long ago. If she wanted Angela to change her mind, she would be too greedy. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Alyssa stood up and walked over, "What does Angela want to eat tonight? I will make it for you."

After a long afternoon, it was almost dinner time.

Emmett sat on the couch with Angela in his arms. Alyssa walked over and squatted on the edge of the couch. So she was at the same height with Angela.

Angela leaned against Emmett's chest and said with a pleased expression, "I want to eat meat."

Alyssa touched her face. "Okay."

After saying that, she could not help kissing Angela’s face again.

After kissing Angela, she looked up and saw Emmett's dark eyes.

His eyes were as black as ink. Dark currents surged inside, as if it could suck people in the next second.

Alyssa was stunned.

The two of them looked at each other from an extremely close distance just like that. She could even

feel Emmett's face getting closer and closer until his face was so close that his breath sprayed on her face.

"You guys want to kiss?"

Angela's voice woke the two of them up instantly.

Alyssa seemed to wake up instantly and suddenly retreated.

She stood up and hurriedly said, "I will go down and make some food for Angela."

After Alyssa finished speaking, she stood up and hurried out.

Angela rubbed her fingers and turned to look at Emmett with a blank face.

She saw her father staring at her with an unhappy expression.

Angela shrunk her neck and sat down obediently. She called out in a fawning manner, "Daddy."

Emmett did not say anything. He replied in discontent, “Huh.”

Angela turned her head to the left and then to the right, as if she was finally sure that Emmett was not angry. She smiled and squinted her eyes, saying, "Daddy just kissed Auntie Alyssa."

Emmett looked at Angela unhappily and said, "I didn’t."

Angela exaggeratedly covered her mouth with one hand and pointed at Emmett with the other and

said, "You did!"

Emmett seemed to have run out of patience. He lifted her by the collar and lifted her off his body. He put her down on the ground and said, "I tried to, but I didn’t succeed.”

"Oh." Angela followed behind him and soon forgot what had just happened.

Emmett had long legs and Backer faster than Angela. Now, he deliberately walked fast.

Angela followed behind him. The stairs were a little high and she was a little afraid. So she held the handrail of the stairs and faced downstairs. She sat on the stairs and rubbed down the stairs one by one.

Seeing that Emmett had already walked into the hall, she hugged her small hands and frowned in anger. "Empett, I want a hug!"

Emmett turned back to look at her and refused her. “You should learn to be independent.”

Angela did not know what "learn to be independent" meant. She only knew that Emmett turned her down.

She pursed her lips. She turned her back to the ground and headed downstairs. She used both her hands and feet to go down the stairs.

Along the way, a maid came over to carry her. She shrunk her hands and shook her head. "Don't hug me. I'll go by myself."

Emmett went straight to the kitchen.

He had bought this villa for one or two years, mainly because he did not like the old residence. Every time he stayed in the old residence, he felt that something was wrong.

Some time ago, he moved to live next to Sampson, mainly because he was a little curious about Alyssa. This villa was too big, even if he and Angela lived in it, it would be empty.

Now, it had come in handy.

When he walked to the kitchen door, he stopped and did not enter again.

Alyssa had her back to him and was holding two boxes of meat in her hands. She seemed to be trying to figure out what meat it was and she looked very serious.

Her long hair was tied neatly into a ponytail and tied behind her head. Her sleeves were rolled up, revealing her slender forearm.

She put down one of the boxes of meat, then tiptoed to the storage cabinet to look for something. Her arms were raised above her head. The fabric of her clothes was pulled tightly, and her waist was slender and distinct.

It was inexplicably tempting.

Emmett's eyes turned deep as he reached out and pressed on the left side of his chest. His expression was unfathomable.

"Daddy!"

At this time, Angela's voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Emmett turned around and saw Angela running over with a face full of excitement. "Daddy, I came down by myself!"

Alyssa heard the noise and turned around. Her eyes fell on Angela and a smile appeared on her face.
