Chapter 10


    The next morning, Alyssa was woken up by the ringing of her cellphone. She slowly opened her watery


    eyes and nced at the phone who was kept vibrating at the side.


    To keep up her appearance of being a simple girl, she still used the old machine which could only make


    phone calls and send messages. Buying a smartphone would make her like her other family members


    and she couldn’t stand to be like them.


    She took her phone and looked at the caller ID, and immediately came to her senses.


    She hesitated for a moment before she picked up the phone, “Dad.”


    Why would he be calling her at this hour?


    Jason Moore’s voice was as serious as always, “You went home yesterday? Who sent you back?”


    Alyssa just felt bitterly disappointed. She had just gotten married. Why couldn’t her father ask a more


    relevant question than who took her home?


    For most of the part, Jason rarely called her, let alone asked hering home. Seeing him suddenly


    calling to ask about that, Alyssa could not help but suspect his true purpose.


    But she still told honestly, “It was Emmett’s cousin who took me home.”


    Jason pondered for a moment at the other end side of the phone and then he said, “When you have


    time, take your sister to the Lawrence house and introduce her to some suitable young people there so


    that she can make more friends.”


    Alyssa suddenly understood the meaning of what he said.


    After she left Moore’s vi yesterday, “Justin” and Skr must have met. And Skr was a type of


    person who wouldn’t leave any opportunity.


    Although Alyssa didn’t want to admit it, but she couldn’t deny the fact that Justin was incredibly


    handsome man. So Skr must have taken fancy to him, so she wanted her to set her up with him.


    Incredible!


    The schemes of father and daughter were excellent.

    Emmett was originally meant to be engaged with Skr, but in the end, it was her who married him, in


    the force of her mother.


    And as if that was not enough, they would use her as a stepping stone to find Skr an excellent man


    to be her husband in the Lawrence family.


    Everyone in the Holston knew that, except Emmett, all the other men in the Lawrence family were


    outstanding and among the best. In short, they were all forces to reckon with.


    Of course, Skr would want to be connected with such a family. And Jason would support her every


    step on the way.


    A trace of self-deprecation appeared in Alyssa’s eyes. Skr was indeed Jason’s biological daughter,


    but somehow she was not?


    How could he be so biased?


    Alyssa endured the pain and tried to keep calm in her voice. “I would like to take my sister to Lawrence


    family, but until now I haven’t seen Emmett yet.”


    When Jason heard that she didn’t even see Emmett’s face, he suddenly became angry.


    “You didn’t even see your husband? Haven’t you done enough trouble for this family? And you still dare


    to go home?” Jason gritted his teeth. “Don’t think I don’t know what you did with that man!”


    Although Alyssa was used to hear hateful words, she still felt piercing pain in her heart. She tried to


    keep the tears in her eyes for falling and while her nose twitched, her voice was the same as usual,


    “Maybe if you had sent my sister to the Lawrence family first, Emmett would have liked to see her! I’m a


    fake, why would he want to see me?”


    Emmett, who happened to came out of the bathroom, heard the conversation.


    She was stiing on the bed, with the thick, ck hair like seaweed hanging down to her waist. Her


    fingers were holding the phone so hard that he could see the protruding blue blood vessels. Like water,


    her eyes were full of tears, which did not flow out because of stubbornness. The delicate figure of hers


    looked pitiful.


    Emmett narrowed his ck eyes. He found that the new wife of his more and more pleasing.


    No one knew what the person at the other end of the phone just said, but Alyssa’s face turned pale.


    She didn’t speak and didn’t hang up either.


    Emmett went straight over, grabbed the phone in her hand, and hung it up.


    Looking the phone in his hand, his eyebrows furrowed. Who still used this kind of phone?


    Then, he looked down at Alyssa, with almost no emotion in his indifferent voice, “If you don’t want to


    hear those things, don’t give them the satisfaction of you hearing it.”


    Alyssa raised her head in a hurry, with tears in her eyes. She could not even see his face and could


    only feel a blur in front of her.


    But strangely, she heard a hint offort in his words.


    However, just as she looked around, she widened her eyes sharply, “Why am I on the bed?”


    She remembered she had given up the bed to the injured man and had slept on the sofast night.


    “You sleepwalked on your own.” Emmett said andid next to her in the bed, “You crawled up right


    beside me.”
