Chapter 15


    Emmett’s father? George Lawrence?


    The rich and noble man who attracted countless women in Holston City when he was young? The


    same man who grew such a massive business empire?


    He was actually calling her? For what?


    A shiver ran down her spine as Alyssa was shocked for a several seconds before she found words to


    communicate. “Hello, Sir…”


    Even though he was her father-inw, she could not utter the word ‘Dad.’


    “If you have time tonight, I want to treat you a dinner.” George’s voice was calm and firm tempered by


    years of trials. Though it sounded like an order, it wasn’t offensive.


    Alyssa understood one thing between his words. Although George gave her a choice, she had no room


    for denials. She could only agree in response.


    “Sure, I have time.”


    “Great. I’ll send the driver to pick you up, see you tonight.”


    He hung up afterpleting it.


    From the beginning to the end, George’s tone was calm and strong. No one could refuse him. Now she


    could assume how cold Emmett would be.


    Alyssa didn’t think about anything else, and threw aside the cell phone, quickly ran out the door. She


    took a taxi towards Emmett’s vi.


    Her heart could not help but pound faster as she looked at the city going further and further. George


    said that the driver would pick her up. Then the driver would go to Emmett’s vi to pick her up.


    …


    Alyssa paid the bill and stood at the main door waiting for George’s man.


    While she was waiting, she raised her head to look at Emmett’s vi.


    The vi was built along the half way of the hill, so there were few people around. The white vi stood


    quietly in the forest, making it look strange. The ck fences stood firmly around it, enough to keep


    people away, for sure.


    Thest time when she came here, she didn’t notice the exterior of the vi but now the more she saw


    it, the more it looked sinister.


    A cold breeze rose from her feet.


    A cold breeze rose from her feet.


    It was a winder day and Alyssa’s face was pale due to the cold. She tugged her sleeves tighter against


    her fragile body as her teeth kept chattering.


    Even so, she didn’t enter in the vi and waited patiently at the main entrance.


    After a while, a ck colored car stopped at the vi’s entrance and stopped. Alyssa was curious and


    then she saw a gentle middle-aged man exiting the car.


    When he looked at Alyssa, there was a sh of surprise in his eyes but he quickly hid it.


    This was the first time he saw Emmett’s wife. And as soon as he saw her, he could not help but be


    astonished. Although he wasn’t expecting a beauty, he wasn’t expecting this either!


    No matter what, Emmett was the only son of Lawrences. Even if he was disfigured, he was still the heir


    of Lawrences. But this type of woman for the only heir of Lawrences… He didn’t expect to see this. But


    he still kept a straight face.


    He stood in front of Alyssa and respectfully bowed. “Madam, I am Owen. Mr. Lawrence sent me over to


    pick you up for dinner.”


    So it was the driver sent by George to pick her up.


    “Oh… Sorry to bother you.” Alyssa joked andughed out loud. She looked silly as if she couldn’t figure


    out what was happening.

    Owen was stunned. Was she dull as well? But he soon organized his emotions and opened the car


    door for her.


    “Madame, please get in the car.”


    After that, he walked around and sat in front and drove away.


    When the car disappeared in the forest, the curtains on the second floor of the vi were pulled open


    with a ‘swoosh’. Standing inside were Emmett and Frank. They were busy observing the scene in the


    front and their eyebrows furrowed together.


    Frank looked at the car and then asked Emmett, “Boss, are you really going to let Madam see Mr.


    Lawrence just like that?”


    “What else can I do?” Emmett’s voice was deep and sullen. He put his hands into the pocket and said,


    “She’s just a silly and dumb ugly woman. Even if they met, what can George do to her?”


    “But Madam is just pretending!”


    “And that’s exactly her talent.”


    If she could pretend so well in front of others, she could also be able to handle George alone, right?


    Emmett thought and smirked. He then turned around and left.


    …


    Alyssa didn’t know where she was taken away to but she knew she couldn’t ask so she just sat silently.


    After sometime a high-ss restaurant came into her line of sight as the car stopped at the entrance.


    The surrounding was filled with various luxurious cars and it was obvious that this was a ce of upper


    ss people.


    Alyssa nced at her old and yellowish clothes and her heart couldn’t help but twitch. Perhaps this


    wasn’t the best way she should introduce herself to her father-inw.


    Owen escorted her to the private room. He invited her to enter the room. “Mr. Lawrence is waiting for


    you inside.”


    “Okay.” Alyssa smiled. “Thanks Mr. Owen.”


    Owen saw her going into the room, and closed the door. He thought about something and gently shook


    his head.


    At the table, the elegant andmanding middle-aged man was flipping through the menu. Although


    he had some wrinkles on his face, he still looked very graceful.


    When he heard some movements, he ced the menu and looked up.


    Alyssa looked at the man in front of her carefully. It was George Lawrence! The famous business


    tycoon of Holsten City.


    She originally thought that looking at her face and simpleton dressing, the man would definitely scoff


    and turn-away his head in disgust, as everyone did at the slight of her.


    But to her surprise, he pleasantly smiled and gently asked. “Are you Alyssa? I finally met you.”
