    Chapter 161


    "About the police station?" Alyssa continued to struggle with the bones in the bowl and said without


    looking up, "Someone wanted to harm Hazel and took her clothes. They wanted to take pictures of her


    naked."


    "You know I am not asking about this." Emmett coldly interrupted her. There was coldness in the


    surroundings. He was angry.


    Alyssa suddenly lost interest in eating. She wiped her hands and stood up. "I''m full."


    Why didn''t he ask herst night when he went out after mming the door?


    Now he came to question her?


    Emmett obviously didn''t intend to let her go so easily.


    He stood up and took a step forward. In two or three steps, he caught up to Alyssa.


    Emmett pulled her wrist and pulled her into his arms. He held her chin with his other hand and said in a


    deep voice, "Alyssa, look at me."


    Alyssa honestly and seriously stared at his face for a few seconds. Then she nodded and said, "You


    are still as handsome as yesterday."


    Her perfunctory tone made Emmett uncontrobly increase the strength in his hand.


    Alyssa frowned and said with a smile that was not a smile, "It hurts. You not only hurt me and made me


    sprawl my ankle. Now you want to break my wrist and dislocate my chin?"


    Emmett paused. His expression was frighteningly dark.


    Alyssa was forced to raise her chin, but she did not seem flustered at all. Instead, she was arrogant like


    a queen and did not show any weakness as she looked at him.


    However, his eyes were as dark as the night sky and seemed to be able to suck people. She could not


    hold on any longer.


    Finally, it was she who turned her eyes away first.


    "Since you''re ming me, don''t pretend to be indifferent. It''s very ugly." Emmett let go of her chin and


    covered her hair. He gently stroked her hair.


    His expression was still cold and gloomy, but his actions were strangely gentle.


    Emmett''s control over everything made people unable to guess. It made Alyssa feel irritated.


    In front of Emmett, it was very difficult for her to sessfully conceal her feelings.

    "I didn''t pretend. I just thought it through." Alyssa still turned her head to the side and said, "Rosalie is


    your old friend. I feel sorry for you when such an ident happened. When you see me look like her, it


    is normal for you to have a good impression of me."


    "If it was me, when I met someone who looks simr to Hazel outside, I would also take a few more


    nces. This is such a simple principle, I understand."


    Yes, it was such a simple principle.


    Emmett was good to her because she looked like Rosalie. It was human nature.


    She really understood, but why was she still sad?


    "Very good."


    Emmett let go of her and took half a step back. He looked down at her with a smile that was not a


    smile. There was no joy or anger on his handsome face.


    Alyssa felt that no one could guess his current mood from his expression because he did not want


    others to know.


    Just like how he could investigate her thoroughly but she did not know anything about him. He


    controlled others but never revealed his true self in front of others.


    It was originally an unfair game but she was too naive.


    This time, the confrontation between the two seemed to have be a boundary point.


    In the following period of time, both of them appeared cold and distant.


    The two of them slept separately, got up early and went to work at their respectivepanies, and


    returned to dinner together. asionally, they would say a few words. They were no different from the


    kind of married couple who looked like they were separated by marriage.


    However, it was Justin suffered. In this depressing atmosphere, he could foresee that his winter


    vacation would be very painful, so he decided to look for his brother, Dn.


    Alyssa thought of thest time Dn said that he would treat her and Emmett to dinner. She did not


    know if Dn had called Emmett or not. Emmett had not told her about it, so it should be gone.


    Or perhaps Emmett rejected it?


    Justin chose Saturday. Dn had the time to pick him up personally.


    "Brother."


    Justin ran towards Dn the moment he saw him.


    Alyssa helped Justin organize some daily necessities and went downstairs. She saw Dn was


    already standing in the hall.


    It had been more than a week since thest banquet. Alyssa thought it would be awkward to see Dn


    again, but she did not feel awkward at all.


    Dn smiled gently at her. “Alyssa."


    His smile always had the charm of a spring breeze.


    "I took something else for Chen." Dn was a man after all. He was not as attentive as she was.


    Dn epted the things in her hands and said, "Thank you very much."


    "It''s just a small matter." Alyssa turned to look at Justin. "Be good. Remember to do your homework


    during the winter vacation. When you want toe back, call your cousin and ask him to pick you up."


    It was already the end of the year. Everypany was very busy, and Nine Clouds Media was no


    exception.


    During this period of time, Emmett often left his house early and came backte. Now, he had to work


    overtime at thepany even during the weekends.


    Justin was a ghost elf. He carried his things and went out first, leaving Dn and Alyssa in the hall.


    Dn stopped smiling. His expression became serious. "I''m sorry about what happenedst time."


    Alyssa curled her lips and revealed a rxed smile. "You have apologized once and I have epted


    it."


    Dn lowered his head and smiled. "Yes."


    …


    Nine Clouds Media, meeting room.


    "The data on this information is wrong!"


    "And this, how did you guys do it?"


    "You don''t want the year-end bonus anymore? Are you going to be wild after the new year?"


    The group of upper echelons who were in the meeting lowered their heads in unison, not daring to


    make a sound.


    Recently, they had been living in deep water and fire.


    In the past, when the big boss used his aura to kill people, Director Hall was quite easy to talk to.


    These few days, they did not know what had happened. The big boss, who rarely showed his face in


    thepany, seemed to be living in thepany, staring at them every day.


    As for Director Hall, it was as if the big boss had made an appointment. He came to thepany in the


    morning and only went back at night. Not only did he put his life on the line, he even started scolding


    people.


    After Xavier finished scolding, he threw all the documents in his hands to the conference table with a


    bang. "Do all of them again! If you don''t finish them tonight, all of you will work overtime together!"


    Emmett, who had not made a sound during the whole meeting, also said quietly at this time, "The


    project I mentioned before, give me a reasonable n by tomorrow."


    As soon as the two of them went out, the higher-ups below all had a worried look on their faces.


    "I think these two Buddhas have gone mad."


    "What''s wrong with Director Hall? I don''t know. I suspect the big boss must have quarreled with his


    wife."


    "How do you know?"


    "They are all men. Think about how he went out to pick up the phone during a few meetings. It must be


    a woman''s phone."
