CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 418

Kathleen did not have the mood to beat around the bush and told him everything she knew.

"I saw him in America. The hypnotist's surname is Li and he can speak Chinese. . ." At this point, she found out that she knew very little about the hypnotist.

Frank continued to ask, "What is his name, where does he live, and how old is he?"

"I don't know." Kathleen did not know anything they asked, so she could only shake her head.

"At that time, Dr. Li sent someone to pick us up. I do not know where he lives. He was wearing a mask and his face could not be seen. I do not know his age. . ."

Frank heard her words and could not help frowning. "Miss Lawrence, now that things have come to this, there is no need for you to hide anymore. You should be very clear about this."

Kathleen and Emmett's relationship had developed to this extent. If Kathleen had a brain, she should not hide anything from them anymore. Otherwise, in the end, only she was going to suffer.

When Kathleen heard this, she was also a little anxious. "What I said is the truth. Now that things have come to this, what reason do I have to lie to you all?"

Frank turned to look at Emmett. "Young Master, what do you think. . ."

Emmett looked down at Kathleen. His eyes were cold and gloomy. Kathleen's eyes flashed with fear and she could not help but shrink back.

She was really afraid of Emmett now.

Emmett said expressionlessly, "You can leave now. You better not let me see you again."

Kathleen's face turned pale all of a sudden, but she knew it was useless to say more. She stood up from the ground and left unsteadily. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

As soon as she left, Emmett ordered, "Go and investigate."

"Yes." Frank replied and went out.

Kathleen had given them too little information about Dr. Li. He was a hypnotist surnamed Li and he could speak Chinese.

It was such a simple message. The investigation might be very simple, but it might also be very difficult.

To be able to hypnotize someone to seal off their memories, such a person must be one of the best in the industry.

This kind of elite was definitely only a small number in this industry, and Emmett had power and influence, so it was not difficult to investigate.

But on the other hand, Kathleen was also considered a cautious person. She must have looked up that hypnotist expert after the incident, but from her words, it could be inferred that she did not find any information about that hypnotist expert.

Because Frank called her, Alyssa had to prepare lunch in advance.

If Emmett did not come back for lunch, she would just cook according to her and Angela's taste.

But if Emmett wanted to come back for lunch, Alyssa had to make something he liked to eat.

When the meal was ready, Emmett had not returned yet.

Alyssa had taken a lot of pictures of Angela before. Coincidentally, there was a photo printer in the villa, so she printed it out.

Before Emmett came back, she took out the photos and placed them on the carpet. She and Angela looked at the photos together.

Among these photos, some of them were Angela, the other was a group photo of Angela and Alyssa, and there were also some single photo of Alyssa.

When she and Angela looked at the photos, Emmett came back.

Angela had sharp eyes and saw Emmett come in. She waved at him like a young adult and said in a businesslike tone. "Empett, come and take a look."

Emmett cast a sidelong glance at Angela. Immediately, Angela tried to please him with a smile.

After she finished speaking, she got up from the carpet and threw herself into Alyssa's arms. After that, she turned back and smirked at Emmett. Her series of actions were very quick, smooth and also somewhat arrogant.

Children were very sensitive. Angela could feel that Emmett would not be angry at Alyssa. It was not wrong for her to hide behind Alyssa when she provoked her.

Sure enough, Emmett only gave her a glance and then looked away.

"The food is ready. You can go and eat first." Alyssa only glanced at him when he came in. At this moment, she was focusing on the photos.

Her daughter was really pretty. The photos were as pretty as her own.

Emmett did not go to eat when he heard her. Instead, he reached out and snatched the photos from Alyssa's hands.

Alyssa raised her head and said unhappily, "There are so many on the ground. Don't you know to take them yourself?"

Emmett pinched a corner of the photo with a few fingers and passed it to Alyssa. He asked her, "Did you take it?"

"What else? Have you ever taken a photo with Angela?"

Alyssa originally asked casually, but as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Emmett reply, "No."

“You. . .” Alyssa wanted to say something to him, but then she thought about how busy he was at work. Being able to take care of Angela was already very good, so she did not say anything.

Alyssa took a lot of photos of Angela and printed out a lot of them. They were everywhere on the carpet.

As Emmett looked at so many photos, some fragmented images flashed through his mind.

It seemed that there were a lot of photos of Alyssa. . . in a room. . .

But soon, it quickly flashed and another scene appeared.

A villa was burning. . .

Emmett stretched out his hand and held his head. Then he staggered and fell on the carpet.

Seeing him suddenly fell down, Alyssa was stunned for a moment. She then quickly put Angela aside and walked to Emmett's side.

"Emmett, what's wrong with you?" After Alyssa finished speaking, she remembered that his current appearance was very similar to that time in the study room.

Emmett’s brows contracted and beads of sweat started squirting out the top of his forehead. His jaw was tight and he looked very uncomfortable.

With the experience from the last time, Alyssa knew that she could not help him at all and did not do anything. She only bent over to look at him and asked, "Shall I get someone to send you to the hospital?"

Emmett did not answer her and continued to lie on the carpet.

Angela felt something was wrong with Emmett and also got up and ran over. She knelt beside him and carefully called, "Daddy?"

It was not until then that Alyssa remembered Angela was still here.

Emmett might scare Angela.

Alyssa quickly carried Angela up in her arms and said consolingly. “Daddy is sick. I'll take him to the hospital to see a doctor. He will be fine after treatment."

"Daddy is sick?" Angela tiled her head and looked at Emmett. She then covered her stomach with her hand, looked like she suddenly realized something. "Daddy's tummy hurts."

Maybe Angela also had stomach pain in the past, so she thought Emmett also had stomach pain.

Alyssa coaxed and repeated, "Yes, Daddy's tummy hurts."

Then she called a maid. After Angela was carried away, she called a bodyguard over. She then helped Emmett into the car and sent him to the hospital.

After all, they lived under the same roof. Alyssa still decided to go to the hospital with Emmett.

She sat in the back row with Emmett. Emmett was already in a semi-conscious state and could not sit still at all.

Alyssa could only support him and let him lean against her.

After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the hospital. After the car stopped, the bodyguard opened the door to the back seat to help Emmett down.

However, the moment the bodyguard's hand touched Emmett, he suddenly opened his eyes.

The bodyguard was shocked and shouted, "Young Master?"

Emmett's eyes were a little chaotic at first, but soon they became clear again.

He sat up straight and said with a malicious expression, "What do you want to do?"
