Chapter 225

Aurora looked at the person in the car with a surprised expression.

The lights were a little dim and she couldn't see that person's face clearly for a moment.

The next moment, the door was opened from the inside. The person got out and walked to Aurora. "Auntie, it's me, Henry."

"Henry?"

Aurora roughly felt that this man was very familiar.

She looked at him carefully. Isn't this man Henry Grant who was previously engaged to Skylar?

Henry had also been to the Moore family a few times and Aurora had an impression of him. He was a handsome young man. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten Skylar's favor.

After so many things had happened, Skylar and Henry didn't interact much. Instead, she had taken a fancy to an actor.

"Why is auntie still here at night?"

Aurora was embarrassed by Henry's question. She hesitated for a moment and was naturally embarrassed to say what was going on.

Even if she didn't say it, Henry could guess something.

"My house is not far from here. Auntie, if you don't mind, you can come to my house tonight." After Henry finished speaking, he saw Aurora's troubled expression and said very thoughtfully, "It's my house."

Aurora going to Henry's house like this was definitely not suitable.

When she heard him say it was his house, Aurora's face revealed a smile. "How is this appropriate?"

"Nothing is inappropriate." Henry said and politely opened the door for her.

Aurora smiled and got into the car.

Along the way, the two of them chatted.

Unknowingly, Henry started to talk about Alyssa.

He asked unintentionally, "I haven't seen Alyssa for a long time. Is she okay recently?"

"You know Alyssa too?" After a short moment of surprise, Aurora remembered Skylar had complained to her before that Alyssa wanted to steal her boyfriend.

Skylar's boyfriend at that time was Henry.

Alyssa had liked Henry before?

"Yes, I am her senior. We have known each other for a long time." There was a trace of nostalgia in his tone, as if he had a good relationship with Alyssa.

Aurora could not help but ask, "Who are you helping me for? Alyssa or Skylar?"

"Of course it is because of Alyssa." Henry added, "She is a good girl."

At this time, they had arrived at the residential area where Henry lived.

Henry parked the car and opened the door for Aurora. "This is the place."

After he finished speaking, he opened the trunk. "Please wait for me. I need to get something."

Henry took the things and led the way.

Aurora followed behind him. She looked at his back and thought, ‘It would be great if he was her son-in-law.’

Such a polite and refined young man, he was many times better than Emmett.

When she thought of Emmett, she shivered and followed him inside.

…

The next day.

When Alyssa entered the dining room, she saw Amelia carrying breakfast to the dining table.

It wasn't that she deliberately wanted to see Amelia, but that Amelia was too conspicuous.

Although Amelia wanted to snatch Emmett from her, she had to admit that Amelia was not bad looking. Coupled with her temperament and specially put on makeup, even if it was just an ordinary maid uniform worn on her, it could still make her stand out.

After yesterday's incident, Amelia calmed her heart and planned to take it slowly step by step.

Seeing Alyssa come in, she slightly nodded, "Young Madame."

Emmett was already sitting in front of the table.

She got up a little late recently. Emmett had to go the company, so he woke up very early, but usually after he finished his breakfast and almost leaving that Alyssa woke up.

Sometimes when she went downstairs, Emmett was already gone.

As soon as she sat down, she heard Emmett say, "Today is the verdict. I might come back later."

He was talking about Skylar's case.

The indictment was intentional assault, but Alyssa wasn't injured.

However, the lawyer was Arthur. Skylar's sentence was already set.

Alyssa thought about it and said, "I will go too."

She just wanted to see if Skylar had any regrets.

Emmett frowned. "I will go alone."

Alyssa's expression changed. She put down the spoon in her hand and narrowed her eyes to look at Emmett.

This request was not too much. Why did Emmett not let her go?

Moreover, Amelia was still here. Wasn't he not going to give her face?

The reason why she kept Amelia was because she wanted to see how sincere Emmett was to her.

She believed in Emmett, but occasionally she felt uneasy.

No matter how she looked at it, she was not good enough for Emmett.

All her confidence was because of Emmett's sincerity.

Emmett's brows knitted even tighter. "It's cold. It's not convenient for your body."

Alyssa didn't back down. "I can wear more. The doctor said I'm healthy."

She was still a little upset about Emmett not letting her go out. The two of them did not mention it again, but it didn't mean that the matter had passed just like that.

Emmett looked up and stared at her for a few seconds. "I will come back to pick you up."

Alyssa thought of what had happened earlier and felt a little stifled. She lowered her head and continued to eat. However, the words that came out of her mouth urged him to leave. "Alright, you can go to work."

Emmett pursed his lips and went out with a cold face.

Amelia only looked at Alyssa with ridicule after Emmett went out.

In her opinion, Alyssa was too arrogant and dared to go against Emmett.

Alyssa felt that someone was looking at her. She raised her head and looked at Amelia. She hooked her lips and said faintly, "I know what you are thinking."

Amelia's expression changed at first and then returned to normal. "Is that so?"

She didn't believe that Alyssa knew what she was thinking.

"Emmett is an excellent man. Everyone knows this. That's why all of you are attracted to him. It is not hard to understand, but…"

Alyssa paused slightly and her expression became more serious. "Everyone is an individual and not someone's accessory. You have thoughts and ways of doing things. When you are with a man who is better looking than you, do you have to lower your attitude?"

Amelia's expression changed slightly and she pursed her lips, remained silent.

Alyssa felt it a little funny. "Perhaps you did not fall in love with Emmett at all. You just feel that Mrs. Lawrence's identity is very glorious. You are not the only woman who thinks this identity is good. Since so many have this idea, where did you get the confidence that Emmett will fall in love with you?"

Amelia was seen through by Alyssa and her tone was somewhat anxious. "Alyssa, shut up! You speak so righteously and you are still the same!"

Alyssa curled her lips, "Of course I am different from you guys. After all, I am Mrs. Lawrence now."

Seeing Amelia so angry that her face turned red, Alyssa felt that it was quite fun.
