CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 278



Chapter 278

At this moment, he was passing through the traffic light section. Frank looked over and saw that Emmett was referring to a group of people standing behind Alyssa in the photo. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Frank did not feel anything strange at first glance.

He also said very seriously, “They are just passerby."

Emmett looked up and said seriously, "I have never seen these people before."

Frank looked confused. "Ah?"

Emmett had never been to Sydney in the past few months. The Alyssa he saw was only the one in the photo.

Could it be that when he looked at Alyssa’s photos, he remembered all the people who had appeared in the background of the pictures?

While Frank was still in shock and doubt, he heard Emmett say in a deep voice, "Ask someone to check who these people are and let them keep a close eye on them."

"Yes, sir." Frank replied.

Frank parked the car in front of the apartment building.

Emmett entered the building and only then Frank left.

Emmett opened the door and it was pitch black in the room.

He turned on the lights in the room and walked straight into the bedroom.

The bedroom was full of photos of Alyssa.

These photos were all taken by his men who went to Sydney in the past few months. Some of them were very clear and some were very blurry.

Even if it was a picture that could only see her outline, Emmett was not willing to delete it. Instead, he personally printed it out.

Emmett took off his jacket and rolled up his shirt sleeves slowly on his forearm. He took the connecting line and walked to the printer. He connected his phone with the printer and started to print today's new photos.

Alyssa slept until midnight and was woken up by the deafening music.

She opened her eyes in the darkness and lay on the bed blankly for a few minutes. Only then did she recognize that the music was coming from next door.

She knew that young people had good energy. But even if they had good energy, could they wake others up in the middle of the night because they were having a party?

Alyssa got up and got out of bed. She walked to the window and lifted the corner of the curtain to look outside.

The house she lived in was only separated by a wall. From her room, she could see the bonfire in the courtyard next door and the people sitting around it.

The bonfire was very bright and it was not very far away. Alyssa recognized a few of the youths. They were the ones she saw at the door when she went out to eat during the day.

She remembered their figures and the clothes they wore during the day.

This area was very far from the city. Most of the people living here were retired old people, so those youths were too conspicuous. It was not difficult to remember them.

Among them, there were some that Alyssa had not seen during the day. There were some who looked very strange. There were both men and women. With a glance, one could tell that they were not doing anything good.

They had caused such a huge commotion that Alyssa was not the only one who was disturbed. However, no one came out to stop them.

This group of people did not look to be trifled with. Alyssa was alone and pregnant, so naturally, she did not dare to say anything to them.

She returned to the bed and pulled the blanket over her head. She covered herself tightly but she still could not stop the loud noise.

Only when the sky was about to light up did it gradually quieted down.

Alyssa did not sleep well for the entire night and did not have much energy in the morning. She tiredly roasted two pieces of bread for herself and prepared to cook another egg to eat breakfast.

Just as she was waiting to cook the egg, there was a knock on the door.

Alyssa turned back and looked in the direction of the door. She slightly frowned and still walked to the door.

She looked through the door and saw that it was a girl. So she opened the door.

The girl greeted her first. "Hi!"

"Hello, is something the matter?" Alyssa half opened the door and blocked the door. She did not plan to let the girl in.

The girl was wearing a pink hoodie on her top half and a pair of hot pants on her lower half that could not even cover her butt. She did not look old either.

When Alyssa was sizing up the girl, the girl was also sizing her up.

The girl's gaze fell on Alyssa's stomach and then moved back to Alyssa's face. She said to her in English, "Excuse me, can I use your bathroom? They are too many people in my friend's house. I want to go to the toilet but I still need to line up. I am in a hurry."

Alyssa hesitated for two seconds and said, "Sorry, my husband is in the toilet. He has constipation

problem. If you don't mind waiting for an hour…"

"Oh my god." The girl made an exaggerated surprised expression. "I really sympathize with you."

Then, the girl turned around and left.

Alyssa also closed the door.

However, after she closed the door, she did not go straight back to the kitchen. Instead, she looked outside through the crack in the door.

Through the crack in the door, she saw the girl walk out and meet with a boy.

She did not know what the girl said to the boy, but the boy looked towards Alyssa's door.

Although Alyssa knew that they could not see her, she was still a little shocked.

This group of teenagers was definitely not a kind person. So no one would ever want to mess with them.

That girl from earlier definitely did not come to use the bathroom. It was very likely that she came to test if she was living alone.

Teenage children like to seek excitement. They might be able to do anything for that.

Alyssa had never taken the initiative to guess others with malicious intent, but this group of youths' actions were indeed suspicious.

Returning to the kitchen, Alyssa did not even have the mood to eat breakfast.

Otherwise, why not move out for a few days?

The more Alyssa thought about the incident of the morning, the more uneasy she felt.

The group of people next door had been playing crazily all night last night. They should be sleeping now. If she went out now, she should not meet them again.

With this thought in mind, Alyssa simply packed a set of clothes and went out with her bag on her back.

Since she could not afford to offend them, she could only move away.

Alyssa locked the door and looked around to make sure that there was no one around. Only then did she feel slightly relieved and walk forward.

However, when she walked out of the courtyard, she found a person leaning against the wall.

It was a blonde, blue-eyed local. He was wearing a red jacket. His face looked young but he was very tall. It could be seen that he was in the puberty stage, so he looked very thin.

With one hand supporting the wall, he curled his lips and smiled wickedly. "Hi, beautiful."

Alyssa subconsciously took two steps back and nodded slightly to greet him. She turned around and was about to walk to the other side.

Seeing that Alyssa was about to leave, the boy immediately followed her.

He said in English while following Alyssa, "Don't be in a hurry to leave. Didn't we just see each other yesterday? You don't remember me?"

Alyssa pretended not to hear and quickened her pace.

However, the boy was taller than her and his legs were longer. He caught up with her in two or three steps. He held her had tightly and said, "I am talking to you. Didn't you hear me? You don't understand English? Where did you come from?"
