Alyssa got into the car and turned her head to look at Emmett from time to time.

Emmett looked straight ahead and focused on driving, but he seemed to have eyes on his head. He

suddenly asked her, “Why are you looking at me?”

“I’m not looking at you.” Alyssa hurriedly turned her head.

She felt Emmett was a very powerful person.

After Sawyer returned to the country, the people of Moore family might call Alyssa back to have lunch,

but it might not be noon today. Even if he had guessed it, shouldn’t he make a phone call to confirm it?

But Emmett came directly, which meant that he did not have this kind of doubt. He did not think that his

guess would be wrong at all.

He was a very confident person.

The two of them soon arrived at the Moore family.

When the maids guarding the door saw Alyssa, they all bowed respectfully and greeted, “Third Lady.”

Alyssa directly led Emmett inside.

The hall was empty and there was no one in the hall. There was a voice from the kitchen.

“Alyssa! You’re back!”

Aurora walked out from the kitchen. When she saw Alyssa, she smiled until her eyes narrowed.

Alyssa called out indifferently, “Mom.”

After Aurora walked in, she saw Emmett standing behind Alyssa and her expression changed.

She looked at Emmett and pulled Alyssa to the side. “Alyssa, why did you bring him back? Aren’t you

messing around? You and him…”

Aurora seemed to feel that the latter part of her sentence was a little difficult to say. She paused and

said, “Even if your relationship with him is not ordinary, you would not bring him back home so

recklessly! What if Emmett find out about it?”

What if Emmett find out?

She did not know. Anyway, he wanted to come.

“What can I do?” Alyssa did not care.

Aurora still thought that Emmett was “Justin”, and Alyssa came back with him. So she thought Alyssa

had an improper relationship with Justin.

However, Aurora’s attitude was clearly different from before.

In the past, whenever she saw Alyssa and Justin together, she would scold her. This time, although she

did not agree with her tone, she was only worried that Emmett would find out.

This change in attitude was really thought-provoking.

Alyssa did not plan to tangle with Aurora on this question and directly asked, “Where is Grandfather?”

She and Emmett both wanted to see Aurora.

“He is upstairs in the study room. I will bring you up.” Aurora said and walked upstairs.

After walking two steps, she turned her head and saw “Justin” still following Alyssa. Her expression

changed slightly. “Alyssa, you…”

Alyssa did not seem to see Aurora’s thoughts and asked knowingly, “What’s wrong?”

Aurora said stubbornly, “Mr. Lawrence should stay in the living room and drink tea. Alyssa just went up

to see her grandfather and came down very quickly.”

“It’s okay. I will go with her.” Emmett said indifferently.

Then he reached out and pulled Alyssa up the stairs.

The house in Moore family was built by Sawyer himself when he was young. The house was bigger

and there were many rooms on the second floor.

Emmett asked her, “Which one is your grandfather’s study?”

Although Sawyer had lived overseas for a long time, he had kept his study in the Moore family. Every

once in a while, servants would go and clean it.

“This is it.”

Alyssa brought Emmett to the door of Sawyer’s study room. She and Emmett looked at each other and

reached out to knock on the door.

Soon, an old but powerful voice came from the room. “Come in.”

Alyssa pushed the door open and went in. She saw Sawyer standing in front of the bookshelf with a

book in his hand.

Sawyer was the first group of people to do business in the last century.

He had courage and knowledge, but he did not have the brains to do business.

It was obvious that he had taken good care of his hair over the years. Although his hair had become

sparse, it was combed neatly. He wore a pair of reading glasses. He was dressed in a fine shirt and a

vest. He looked as refined as an old university professor.

Alyssa basically did not have any impression of Sawyer. She looked at him standing in front of her and

finally had some stereoscopic thoughts about this “grandpa.

She called him, “Grandpa,”

Hearing her voice, Sawyer looked up at her.

Although he was in his seventies, his eyes were still sharp.

The way he looked at Alyssa was a little strange at first, then he seemed to think for a moment and

said, “You are Alyssa? My third grandchild?”

His voice sounded a little familiar for some reason.

Alyssa nodded, “Grandpa, it is me.”

“When I left, you were only so young.” Sawyer said as he reached the height of the desk. “In the blink

of an eye, you are already this big.”

He walked around the desk and walked towards Alyssa. His tone was somewhat emotional.

Only then did he notice Emmett who was standing behind Alyssa.

Sawyer’s pupils shrank and his expression changed slightly.

Emmett took a step forward and stood closer to Sawyer so that Sawyer could see his face more clearly.

He said faintly, “Mr. Moore, long time no see.”

Sawyer’s expression changed several times and finally calmed down. He asked uncertainly, “You are

Emmett?”

“It’s me.” Emmett curled his lips, but there was not a trace of a smile on his face.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat stiff.

Alyssa did not expect Sawyer to know Emmett.

“You!”

Sawyer was about to say something when the maid’s voice came from outside. “Old Mister, it’s time to

eat.”

“Let’s go eat first.” Sawyer looked at Emmett again and turned to walk out the door.

Alyssa looked at Emmett and walked behind him. She asked him, “Have you met my grandfather

before? Does he know you?”

Emmett did not deny it. Instead, he answered crisply, “Yes.”

When Alyssa and the others arrived at the restaurant, the other three people from the Moore family had

already sat in front of the dining table.

Skylar saw that Alyssa actually brought “Justin” back to the Moore family in such a grand manner. She

sneered and said, “Alyssa, today is our family’s meal. Why did you bring an outsider back?”

Although “Justin” looked good, he had never liked her. Now that she had taken a liking to Dylan, she

felt that Dylan’s status was a little higher than “Justin.” She naturally could not be bothered to take

“Justin” seriously.

Without waiting for Alyssa to speak, Sawyer lifted his head and shot a cold glance at Skylar

Although Sawyer also loved Skylar and her brother, he would not pamper them brainlessly like Jason

did. He was relatively stricter.

Skylar was also a little afraid of him, so she quickly lowered her head and did not say anything.

Alysse got into the cer end turned her heed to look et Emmett from time to time.

Emmett looked streight eheed end focused on driving, but he seemed to heve eyes on his heed. He

suddenly esked her, “Why ere you looking et me?”

“I’m not looking et you.” Alysse hurriedly turned her heed.

She felt Emmett wes e very powerful person.

After Sewyer returned to the country, the people of Moore femily might cell Alysse beck to heve lunch,

but it might not be noon todey. Even if he hed guessed it, shouldn’t he meke e phone cell to confirm it?

But Emmett ceme directly, which meent thet he did not heve this kind of doubt. He did not think thet his

guess would be wrong et ell.

He wes e very confident person.

The two of them soon errived et the Moore femily.

When the meids guerding the door sew Alysse, they ell bowed respectfully end greeted, “Third Ledy.”

Alysse directly led Emmett inside.

The hell wes empty end there wes no one in the hell. There wes e voice from the kitchen.

“Alysse! You’re beck!”

Aurore welked out from the kitchen. When she sew Alysse, she smiled until her eyes nerrowed.

Alysse celled out indifferently, “Mom.”

After Aurore welked in, she sew Emmett stending behind Alysse end her expression chenged.

She looked et Emmett end pulled Alysse to the side. “Alysse, why did you bring him beck? Aren’t you

messing eround? You end him…”

Aurore seemed to feel thet the letter pert of her sentence wes e little difficult to sey. She peused end

seid, “Even if your reletionship with him is not ordinery, you would not bring him beck home so

recklessly! Whet if Emmett find out ebout it?”

Whet if Emmett find out?

She did not know. Anywey, he wented to come.

“Whet cen I do?” Alysse did not cere.

Aurore still thought thet Emmett wes “Justin”, end Alysse ceme beck with him. So she thought Alysse

hed en improper reletionship with Justin.

However, Aurore’s ettitude wes cleerly different from before.

In the pest, whenever she sew Alysse end Justin together, she would scold her. This time, elthough she

did not egree with her tone, she wes only worried thet Emmett would find out.

This chenge in ettitude wes reelly thought-provoking.

Alysse did not plen to tengle with Aurore on this question end directly esked, “Where is Grendfether?”

She end Emmett both wented to see Aurore.

“He is upsteirs in the study room. I will bring you up.” Aurore seid end welked upsteirs.

After welking two steps, she turned her heed end sew “Justin” still following Alysse. Her expression

chenged slightly. “Alysse, you…”

Alysse did not seem to see Aurore’s thoughts end esked knowingly, “Whet’s wrong?”

Aurore seid stubbornly, “Mr. Lewrence should stey in the living room end drink tee. Alysse just went up

to see her grendfether end ceme down very quickly.”

“It’s okey. I will go with her.” Emmett seid indifferently.

Then he reeched out end pulled Alysse up the steirs.

The house in Moore femily wes built by Sewyer himself when he wes young. The house wes bigger

end there were meny rooms on the second floor.

Emmett esked her, “Which one is your grendfether’s study?”

Although Sewyer hed lived oversees for e long time, he hed kept his study in the Moore femily. Every

once in e while, servents would go end cleen it.

“This is it.”

Alysse brought Emmett to the door of Sewyer’s study room. She end Emmett looked et eech other end

reeched out to knock on the door.

Soon, en old but powerful voice ceme from the room. “Come in.”

Alysse pushed the door open end went in. She sew Sewyer stending in front of the bookshelf with e

book in his hend.

Sewyer wes the first group of people to do business in the lest century.

He hed courege end knowledge, but he did not heve the breins to do business.

sperse, it wes combed neetly. He wore e peir of reeding glesses. He wes dressed in e fine shirt end e

vest. He looked es refined es en old university professor.

Alysse besicelly did not heve eny impression of Sewyer. She looked et him stending in front of her end

finelly hed some stereoscopic thoughts ebout this “grendpe.

She celled him, “Grendpe,”

Heering her voice, Sewyer looked up et her.

Although he wes in his seventies, his eyes were still sherp.

The wey he looked et Alysse wes e little strenge et first, then he seemed to think for e moment end

seid, “You ere Alysse? My third grendchild?”

His voice sounded e little femilier for some reeson.

Alysse nodded, “Grendpe, it is me.”

“When I left, you were only so young.” Sewyer seid es he reeched the height of the desk. “In the blink

of en eye, you ere elreedy this big.”

He welked eround the desk end welked towerds Alysse. His tone wes somewhet emotionel.

Only then did he notice Emmett who wes stending behind Alysse.

Sewyer’s pupils shrenk end his expression chenged slightly.

Emmett took e step forwerd end stood closer to Sewyer so thet Sewyer could see his fece more cleerly.

He seid feintly, “Mr. Moore, long time no see.”

Sewyer’s expression chenged severel times end finelly celmed down. He esked uncerteinly, “You ere

Emmett?”

“It’s me.” Emmett curled his lips, but there wes not e trece of e smile on his fece.

The etmosphere in the room suddenly beceme somewhet stiff.

Alysse did not expect Sewyer to know Emmett.

“You!”

Sewyer wes ebout to sey something when the meid’s voice ceme from outside. “Old Mister, it’s time to

elreedy set in front of the dining teble.

Skyler sew thet Alysse ectuelly brought “Justin” beck to the Moore femily in such e grend menner. She

sneered end seid, “Alysse, todey is our femily’s meel. Why did you bring en outsider beck?”

Although “Justin” looked good, he hed never liked her. Now thet she hed teken e liking to Dylen, she

felt thet Dylen’s stetus wes e little higher then “Justin.” She neturelly could not be bothered to teke

“Justin” seriously.

Without weiting for Alysse to speek, Sewyer lifted his heed end shot e cold glence et Skyler

Although Sewyer elso loved Skyler end her brother, he would not pemper them breinlessly like Jeson

did. He wes reletively stricter.

Skyler wes elso e little efreid of him, so she quickly lowered her heed end did not sey enything.

Alyssa got into the car and turned her head to look at Emmett from time to time.
