Ever since the last time she fought with Amelia in Emmett's villa, Eliza had a grudge against Alyssa.
She hated Alyssa even more.
When she saw Alyssa, she did not have a good expression. She glanced at Alyssa and looked away in
disdain.
Dylan and Emmett had recently escalated their conflicts because of the termination of the contract.
Therefore, none of the four took the initiative to talk to each other.
The atmosphere in the hall had become stiff and annoying.
Alyssa felt uncomfortable all over. On the other hand, Emmett did not look strange at all. He even
reached out his hand and picked a few large Hawaii fruits from the fruit plate on the coffee table. He
peeled them off and handed them to Alyssa.
Alyssa admired him for being able to remain calm at a time like this.
Since he acted as if nothing had happened, Alyssa's heart also calmed down.
In any case, it was just acting. Whoever acted more realistically would be the winner.
"It's quite crisp. You eat one too." Alyssa said and stuffed a Hawaii fruit into Emmett's mouth.
The fruit tasted like cream. It was crispy and fragrant. Mostly girls liked it.
Emmett did not like this taste, but he still frowned and swallowed it.
"Mom." Dylan sat down beside Frances and said with concern, "Why didn't you call me in advance so
that I could pick you up?"
Eliza also sat down next to Dylan and said, "Yes, aunt. It was not easy for you to come back. Brother
happened to be in China and should have let him pick you up."
Frances's smile was very faint. "Dylan is too busy. It's not like there is no one to pick me up. It's not a
big deal."
The three people on the other side seemed to be in harmony. Alyssa and Emmett's side seemed to be
deserted.
Emmett was just peeling the Hawaii fruit. George sat opposite him and didn't say anything.
It was not easy for them to make it to the time to eat.
Alyssa thought that she could go back after dinner.
But when they were halfway through their meal, Eliza pointed at her phone and said loudly, "Big
brother, someone is blackmailing you online."
Alyssa's heart tightened. She was not worried about how others would blacklist Dylan. She was just
worried that they would drag Emmett into it.
Emmett was the founder of the Nine Clouds’ Media and the Lawrence family should know about him.
But they did not interfere in Emmett’s cancellation of the contract with Dylan.
Perhaps the elders of the Lawrence family were too lazy to care about this matter, but both parties
involved were here.
Dylan appeared very calm. "You don't have to care. We'll talk after dinner. There are some people on
the Internet who like to talk nonsense now."
"No, you're in trending search again. You have high attention. They say that you've tortured the puppies
in the crew before? The person who leaked the news is said to have worked with you in the same
crew."
Eliza was also working in the television station. When it came to the entertainment industry, she would
naturally pay attention to the entertainment news.
“It's simply a joke. How could there be such a thing? You're such a good person." Eliza deliberately put
on a natural tone, but the deliberate ingratiation in her tone could not be concealed.
Alyssa glanced at her.
Eliza realized that it was too hard for her to ingratiate herself with Emmett, so she took a step back and
tried to ingratiate herself with Dylan.
Alyssa poked Emmett's waist with a finger under the table. She wanted to ask him if he was the one
who did this to Dylan.
Her intuition told her that what Emmett wanted to do was not just to terminate the contract with Dylan.
He was a person who bore grudges. He would definitely get something back from Dylan.
She only poked him once, and her entire palm was grabbed by Emmett.
Alyssa raised her head. Emmett turned his head and picked some food for her as if nothing had
happened. "Eat more. Once we're full, we'll go back."
Alyssa tilted her head and blinked her eyes to express her doubt.
Emmett shook his head imperceptibly and answered her question.
After that, he raised his head to look at Dylan.
Their gazes met in the air. Neither of them took the initiative to say a word, nor did they have any
expression.
However, the others felt that the atmosphere was strange.
Dylan took the lead to look away. He smiled indifferently and said, "Of course not. It is just something
boring people talk about. Eliza does not need to look anymore. Let's eat."
When he said so, Eliza quickly echoed, "Yes."
Eliza put down her phone and did not say anything. She asked curiously, "Brother, why do you want to
terminate the contract with the Nine Clouds Media? I feel that the Nine Clouds Media is quite good to
you."
The moment she said this, the atmosphere at the table became strange and sluggish again.
Alyssa was a little surprised. Eliza did not know that Emmett was the boss behind the scenes of the
Nine Clouds Media?
Thinking about it, Alyssa felt that it was understandable.
Emmett was a cold person. He did not like people from the Lawrence family to begin with and did not
have any relationship with Eliza. It was normal that Eliza did not know that he was the boss behind the
scenes of the Nine Clouds Media.
Dylan did not smile this time. He looked at Eliza with a bad expression.
Eliza looked confused. She did not know what she said wrong.
Frances, who did not say anything, picked up some vegetables and put it in Eliza's bowl and said
gently, "Eliza, try this."
"Thank you aunt." Eliza carefully looked at Dylan and did not speak anymore. She buried her head in
her food.
…
After finishing the meal, Alyssa thought that they could finally go back.
"Emmett, come to my study room. I have something to tell you."
As soon as George said those words, Alyssa knew she wouldn't be able to leave soon.
Alyssa sighed and pushed Emmett. "You go. I will wait for you here."
However, Emmett did not say anything and led her straight to George's study.
"Your father said he had something to tell you. Why are you taking me there?" Alyssa struggled to
shake off his hand.
Emmett's tone was very serious. "We just finished my meal. I will take you two more steps to digest
your food."
Alyssa softly muttered, "Do you have any other excuse?"
"Say it again." Emmett turned to look at her.
But Alyssa shrunk her neck and shook her head, pretending to be mute.
When they reached the door of George's study, Emmett pushed open the door and brought Alyssa in.
George saw Alyssa following behind Emmett and frowned slightly, "Alyssa, don’t you want to chat with
them downstairs?”
The subtext of his words was probably, "I am talking to my son. Why are you following here?
"If you have anything to say, say it." Emmett took Alyssa to sit on the sofa and then looked up at
George.
George’s jaw was tight. He was obviously angry at Emmett's attitude.
Alyssa looked at George and then at Emmett. She found that the father and son pair looked quite
similar when they were angry.
"I thought you were willing to take over Lawrence Group because you have thought it through."
George's face was cold. He spoke with dignity.
Alyssa could not help but sit up straight.
But Emmett smiled. "It seems like I need to correct you. I will only go back to take over the Lawrence
Group’s mess because of my grandfather."
