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-in-law, 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 after completing 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 villa.
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 villa 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 villa.
The villa was built along the half way of the hill, so there were few people around. The white villa stood
quietly in the forest, making it look strange. The black fences stood firmly around it, enough to keep
people away, for sure.
The last time when she came here, she didn’t notice the exterior of the villa 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 villa and waited patiently at the main entrance.
After a while, a black colored car stopped at the villa’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 flash 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 and laughed 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 villa 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-class 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 place of upper
class people.
Alyssa glanced 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-in-law.
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 and commanding 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 placed 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.”
