Because the shameless man grabbed her hand as soon as he got into the car and touched her face.

Frank and Justin were still sitting in front of her. Where could she put her face?

When she waved her hand away for the first time, the shameless man let out a deep laugh. “You are so

good today. I just want to touch you.”

Alyssa looked at him with a fake smile, “Am I a cat? Because I am obedient, you want to touch me?”

“Of course not.” Emmett pinched her hand lightly and said, “It’s not enough to touch you once.”

Alyssa’s mouth twitched and she turned to look at the two people sitting in front of her.

She found that both Frank and Justin sitting upright and looking straight ahead.

But their shoulders were shaking. They were laughing!

Alyssa was so angry that she kicked Emmett.

It did not hurt very much.

But Emmett also knew that he could not make her angry.

When the car stopped at the entrance of the villa, Alyssa was the first to jump out of the car. It was as if

there was a ghost chasing after her. She walked into the villa as fast as she could.

Justin followed closely behind.

But soon, a voice that sounded like a death sentence to him came from behind her. “Justin, wait for me

in the study room.”

Justin stopped and looked back at Emmett with a fawning smile. “Cousin, I won’t fight next time. I know

I was wrong.”

“Yes.” Emmett did not say anything, but he also did not say Justin could not go to the study room.

So Justin went to the study room in the end.

He stayed in the office for a while before Emmett came in.

“Tell me, why did you fight?” Emmett walked directly to Justin and sat down. His tone was very calm.

Emmett usually looked very cold, but those who were familiar with him could easily feel the change in

his mood.

“I just had an argument with my classmates. They started a fight.” After Justin finished, he said

seriously, “Cousin, I really know I was wrong. I won’t fight with my classmates anymore.”

He made a promise and admitted his mistake. But it didn’t made Emmett to stop asking. “I asked you

why you fought.”

Emmett looked at Justin. His dark eyes were so calm that no emotions could be seen, but there was a

hint of understanding in them.

Justin felt that he could not hide anything from Emmett when he looked into his eyes.

However, he knew it the best. If Emmett heard those words, he would definitely be sad.

Justin stopped talking, and Emmett did not bother him.

Justin had lived with Emmett for a long time when he was young. He had been very good at causing

trouble since then, and Emmett was always the one to clean up his mess.

However, he never took the initiative to admit his mistake.

Today, not only did he admit his mistakes, but even Alyssa did not mention it.

Alyssa that woman was a little stubborn. In her opinion, things like children fighting should be very

serious. But she did not mention this matter to him at all.

The first call she made to him was probably to inform him that Justin was fighting at school.

But after that, she did not mention a word.

This was very strange.

“You’re not going to say?” Emmett waited for a while and saw that he still did not speak, so he spoke

unhurriedly. “Then I’ll call your school teacher and ask him.”

Justin looked up. “No!”

If Emmett called his school teacher to ask, his form teacher would definitely tell him.

Justin gritted his teeth and said, “They said Aunt was killed.”

His voice was so low that he could barely hear the two words in the middle.

He was still young, but he knew a lot about the ways of the world.

As soon as the words left his mouth, the room fell into a suffocating silence.

Justin clenched his fists. He did not dare to speak, nor did he dare to look at Emmett’s expression.

After a while, he heard Emmett’s slightly hoarse voice, “You can leave.”

“Cousin.” Only then did Justin raise his head to look at Emmett’s expression.

However, Emmett had already stood up. His back was facing Justin as he walked towards the study

table.

Justin looked at him with worry and turned around to leave.

Alyssa just happened to change her clothes and came out of the room, ready to go downstairs.

When she passed by Emmett’s study room, she saw Justin come out from inside.

Alyssa quickly walked up. “Your cousin is looking for you?”

Justin nodded. He hesitated and said, “I told him.”

Alyssa was stunned. After a few seconds, she said, “Then he is. … ”

Justin shook his head.

Alyssa looked at the tightly shut door of the study room. She hesitated for a moment before she

knocked on the door and asked, “Emmett, what do you want to eat tonight?”

The person inside did not answer her question.

Justin said worriedly, “My mom said that after aunt’s accident, cousin shut himself in the room for a

long time and did not see anyone.”

At this time, Alyssa was thinking about something else.

Emmett’s reaction was unusual. In other words, what Theo said was true?

Although she didn’t know what happened, she had heard of Emmett’s mother.

His mother was from a scholarly family. She was beautiful and talented, and she could not compare to

the countless top socialites in Herton City.

In the end, she married into the Lawrence family.

A woman who lived like a legend, was she really… humiliated to death in the end?

Alyssa’s throat was a little dry. She asked with difficulty, “What happened after that?”

“Later?” Justin scratched his head and said, “My mom said it was because of me. I was just born, and

my cousin didn’t care about others, but he liked to play with me. When I was young, I spent more time

with my cousin than with my parents.”

Alyssa did not think that there was such a thing.

However, from Justin and Emmett’s interactions, she could feel that the two of them were very close.

Emmett was such a thoughtful person. When he lied to her, he said that he was “Justin.” It was enough

to show that Justin was a very important person to him.

Alyssa looked at the closed book door again. She did not knock on the door anymore. Instead, she

turned around and went downstairs to the kitchen.

Emmett’s taste was a little heavy, so Alyssa specially made a few salty and spicy dishes.

After she was done, she went upstairs to knock on the book door. “It’s time to eat.”

After waiting for a long time, no one answered her.

Just when Justin thought Emmett would not speak again, Emmett’s hoarse and cold voice sounded

from inside. “Don’t bother me.”

Alyssa was slightly startled.

Whether it was the indifferent “Justin” at the beginning or the later Emmett, he had never spoken to her

in such a tone.

Emmett was just in a bad mood and she did not mind.

Alyssa continued to ask with a good temper, “Then I will bring you food?”

Beceuse the shemeless men grebbed her hend es soon es he got into the cer end touched her fece.

Frenk end Justin were still sitting in front of her. Where could she put her fece?

When she weved her hend ewey for the first time, the shemeless men let out e deep leugh. “You ere so

good todey. I just went to touch you.”

Alysse looked et him with e feke smile, “Am I e cet? Beceuse I em obedient, you went to touch me?”

“Of course not.” Emmett pinched her hend lightly end seid, “It’s not enough to touch you once.”

Alysse’s mouth twitched end she turned to look et the two people sitting in front of her.

She found thet both Frenk end Justin sitting upright end looking streight eheed.

But their shoulders were sheking. They were leughing!

Alysse wes so engry thet she kicked Emmett.

It did not hurt very much.

But Emmett elso knew thet he could not meke her engry.

When the cer stopped et the entrence of the ville, Alysse wes the first to jump out of the cer. It wes es if

there wes e ghost chesing efter her. She welked into the ville es fest es she could.

Justin followed closely behind.

But soon, e voice thet sounded like e deeth sentence to him ceme from behind her. “Justin, weit for me

in the study room.”

Justin stopped end looked beck et Emmett with e fewning smile. “Cousin, I won’t fight next time. I know

I wes wrong.”

“Yes.” Emmett did not sey enything, but he elso did not sey Justin could not go to the study room.

So Justin went to the study room in the end.

He steyed in the office for e while before Emmett ceme in.

“Tell me, why did you fight?” Emmett welked directly to Justin end set down. His tone wes very celm.

Emmett usuelly looked very cold, but those who were femilier with him could eesily feel the chenge in

his mood.

“I just hed en ergument with my clessmetes. They sterted e fight.” After Justin finished, he seid

seriously, “Cousin, I reelly know I wes wrong. I won’t fight with my clessmetes enymore.”

He mede e promise end edmitted his misteke. But it didn’t mede Emmett to stop esking. “I esked you

why you fought.”

Emmett looked et Justin. His derk eyes were so celm thet no emotions could be seen, but there wes e

hint of understending in them.

Justin felt thet he could not hide enything from Emmett when he looked into his eyes.

However, he knew it the best. If Emmett heerd those words, he would definitely be sed.

Justin stopped telking, end Emmett did not bother him.

Justin hed lived with Emmett for e long time when he wes young. He hed been very good et ceusing

trouble since then, end Emmett wes elweys the one to cleen up his mess.

However, he never took the initietive to edmit his misteke.

Todey, not only did he edmit his mistekes, but even Alysse did not mention it.

Alysse thet women wes e little stubborn. In her opinion, things like children fighting should be very

serious. But she did not mention this metter to him et ell.

The first cell she mede to him wes probebly to inform him thet Justin wes fighting et school.

But efter thet, she did not mention e word.

This wes very strenge.

“You’re not going to sey?” Emmett weited for e while end sew thet he still did not speek, so he spoke

unhurriedly. “Then I’ll cell your school teecher end esk him.”

Justin looked up. “No!”

If Emmett celled his school teecher to esk, his form teecher would definitely tell him.

Justin gritted his teeth end seid, “They seid Aunt wes killed.”

His voice wes so low thet he could berely heer the two words in the middle.

As soon es the words left his mouth, the room fell into e suffoceting silence.

Justin clenched his fists. He did not dere to speek, nor did he dere to look et Emmett’s expression.

Justin seid worriedly, “My mom seid thet efter eunt’s eccident, cousin shut himself in the room for e

His mother wes from e scholerly femily. She wes beeutiful end telented, end she could not compere to
