Chapter 186


    “Grandfather."


    Alyssa went downstairs and sat opposite Winston.


    Winston smiled when he saw Alyssa. "I decided toe here today. I was worried that there was no


    one in your house."


    Alyssa smiled with him. She was a little embarrassed and did not know what to say.


    Winston asked, "Where is Emmett?"


    Jessie brought Alyssa a cup of tea. Alyssa held the cup and said, "He went to work at thepany."


    Winston suddenly had a look of realization. "I am old and muddle-headed. I thought you guys were as


    idle as an old man like me. I am muddle-headed."


    "Grandpa is getting stronger and stronger. How can he be muddle-headed?" Alyssa smiled. She could


    not guess Winston''s real motive foring to her.


    "I left early back then. Emmett''s father is now in his fifties. He is not as energetic as before. It is said


    that Emmett opened apany with others outside. Do you know what kind ofpany he opened?"


    Alyssa naturally understood what Winston meant when he said that.


    Emmett had founded the Nine Clouds Media by himself. He had always worked in the Nine Clouds


    Media and did not care about the family business of the Lawrence''s.


    When Winston mentioned that Emmett''s father was not as energetic as before, his meaning was


    obvious. He wanted Emmett to return to the Lawrence Group to work.


    Winston did not know, so Alyssa was vague. "I know a little. I don''t know much."


    Winston smiled and said faintly, "Sooner orter, the Lawrence Group will want Emmett to take over. It


    is time for him to let go of these small matters outside. Don''t you think so?"


    As the leader of the entertainment industry in the country, Nine Clouds Media was just a small matter to


    Winston.


    It was not an exaggeration for him to say so.


    After all, the Lawrence Group was a wealthy family. The wealth and resources umted by several


    generations were naturally iparable to Emmett''s Nine Clouds Media.


    "I''m not very clear about Emmett''s work." Alyssa lowered her eyes, looking very humble.


    Winston''s purpose foring today was to ask her to persuade Emmett to return to the Lawrence


    Group to take over the family business.


    But why did he want her to persuade him?


    Since he came to find her, it meant that Emmett did not want to return to the Lawrence Group himself.


    Naturally, she wouldn''t admit anything in front of Winston.


    When Winston heard this, the smile on his face faded. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Alyssa.


    Alyssa felt the pressure emitted from his body. Her entire body tensed up.


    But she did not say anything.


    The two of them just stood there for a while. Suddenly, Winstonughed out loud, "That brat''s eyes are


    really good!"


    Alyssa released her clenched fists. Her palms were wet.


    She was not as calm as she looked on the surface. She was also afraid in her heart.


    Winston was different from Sawyer. He was a person who had seen great scenes and experienced


    great storms. When he was young, he dominated the business world. Now that he was old, even if he


    retired, his aura did not decrease.


    This might be the special thing about the Lawrence family.


    They had wealth and status that others could notpare to. Naturally, their confidence and aura were


    greater than ordinary people.


    This was engraved in their bones, and others could not learn it.


    "Then I''ll be frank. I want Emmett to return to the Lawrence Group to take over the family business.


    Last time in the old residence, I talked to him about this matter, but he rejected it. Help me persuade


    him, just treat it as me asking you."


    Winston''s tone suddenly became very sincere and piteous. Alyssa could not refuse this time.


    "I can help you mention it to him. But he does not even listen to what you say, I am afraid…"


    Winston smiled in satisfaction and interrupted her. "Don''t worry. I know what to do."


    Winston left with satisfaction after knowing Alyssa would mention it in front of Emmett.

    He came and went in a hurry. It could be seen that when the old master was young, he was a man of


    his word. Emmett probably got that from him.


    After sending Winston off, Alyssa received Emmett’s phone call.


    As soon as the call connected, Emmett asked her, "Have you eaten?"


    "I was just about to eat." After chatting with Winston for a while, it was almost noon.


    Emmett asked again, "Grandpa left?


    "Did you know he woulde?" Alyssa picked up her chopsticks and prepared to eat, but she put


    them down when she heard him.


    Emmett sneered. "Otherwise, what other tricks would he have?"


    His tone was very arrogant.


    Alyssa did not have much appetite. She just ate something and put her chopsticks away. She nned


    to eat it again in the afternoon.


    However, Emmett, who was supposed to be at thepany, actually came back at noon.


    "Shouldn’t you be in thepany?"


    "Going to work is not as important as you." Emmett curled his lips and looked at Alyssa meaningfully, "I


    remember what you said this morning."


    Alyssa didn’t want to talk to him.


    So she ignored him and walked straight to the restaurant.


    Jessie seemed to have known that Emmett woulde back for lunch early in the morning and


    prepared five or six dishes.


    "I forgot to tell Young Madame when the old mister came over. When the young master left this


    morning, he said he woulde back for lunch." Jessie saw Alyssa was confused and exined.


    Alyssa turned her head to look at Emmett.


    Emmett sat opposite her and said, "I won''t go to thepany in the afternoon. I''ve dealt with it in the


    morning."


    "Xavier has no objection to your attitude at work?"


    Alyssa thought of the screenshots Hazel showed her yesterday when she mentioned Xavier.


    Emmett said expressionlessly, "So what if he has an opinion?”


    Indeed, Xavier was very timid in front of Emmett. Even if he had an opinion, he did not dare to say it.


    Alyssa pursed her lips and thought for a moment. "Xavier likes women, right?"


    "What''s wrong?" Emmett raised his eyebrows and looked at her.


    "There are rumors about him and Dn on the Inte…" Alyssa shivered when she said that. What


    she said next made Emmett imagine it himself.


    It was a pity that Emmett was a straight man. He did not understand what Alyssa meant.


    "What happened to him and Dn?"


    Alyssa choked. She took out her phone and wanted to find the hotment online for Emmett to see.


    However, when she opened her Weibo, she found that the topic of Dn''s mysterious girlfriend was on


    trending search again.


    Emmett happened to pick up food for Alyssa. Seeing her expression change, he asked, "What


    happened?"


    "Dn and I have been added to the trending search again." Alyssa frowned and pushed her phone in


    front of Emmett.


    Emmett took it over and saw that in Dn''s mysterious girlfriend''s topic, the photos of Alyssa and


    Dn at the airport were released.
