CEO's Substitute Bride

Chapter 284

Alyssa narrowed her eyes and looked at the child in front of her.

It was said that a newborn baby would be wrinkled up and looked ugly, but surprisingly her daughter did not look ugly at all. Instead, she was very very beautiful.

The doctor at the side could not help but say, "It's rare to see such a beautiful baby. She is really beautiful."

Alyssa pursed her lips and smiled softly. Then she weakly closed her eyes.

When she woke up again, it was already night.

The room was bright.

Alyssa was lost for a moment before her consciousness completely returned.

Justin, who had been standing by the side, saw her wake up and quickly walked over to the bed, "Miss Alyssa, you're awake. How are you feeling now?"

Alyssa did not speak but only looked at him in silence.

Justin frowned and understood her meaning. "Cousin has not answered the phone."

Alyssa's eyes darkened when she heard that.

"Mrs. Lawrence, would you like to have some water?" Seeing Alyssa wake up, the maid at the side

walked over.

Alyssa nodded and drank some water. She looked around the ward and found that she did not see her child. She turned her head and asked the maid, "Where is my baby?"

The maid said, "The child just started crying. They were afraid that she would disturb you so they carried the child out."

Alyssa heard this and frowned slightly, "Let them bring the child back."

"Yes."

Not long after the maid went out, she carried the child back.

Alyssa leaned against the bed and took the child in her arms.

The baby was already asleep. Her face was only the size of a palm and her facial features were wrinkled. The baby looked… different from what she had seen in the operating theatre before.

Her baby was beautiful with not a single wrinkle on her face, but now the child’s face was full of wrinkles.

Alyssa carefully looked at the baby's face. The more she looked, the more she felt that this child did not look like either of her or Emmett.

After a while, Alyssa put the child down and said with a pale face, "This is not my child."

"Miss Alyssa, what are you talking about?" Justin walked over and looked at the baby. Newborn babies all looked the same, didn’t they?

At this time, there was a commotion outside. "Where did you guys take my child? I'm going to sue you guys. I'm not done with you guys…"

Alyssa ordered the maid, "Go and take a look. What's going on?"

The moment the door was opened, Alyssa heard the woman’s voice again.

The woman was saying that her child was missing.

Alyssa looked at the baby lying on the bed and found that there was a name tag on the baby's clothes. The name of the baby was written on it.

"Justin, let that woman in." Alyssa reached out and touched the baby's name tag.

Justin was a little worried when he saw Alyssa behaving so abnormally, but he still said, "Okay."

That woman quickly walked in.

Alyssa asked her, "What's your baby's name?"

The woman said a name that was exactly the same as the name tag. Alyssa's voice was trembling. "Take a look and see if this is your child."

The woman walked over and saw the baby. She cried and laughed at the same time, "Yes, it is my child. There is a black birthmark on the sole of her foot. Take a look."

As she said that, she even showed Alyssa the child's feet.

Even if the woman did not say that there was a birthmark under the child's feet, Alyssa knew that it was not her child.

Although she had only seen her baby once, her feeling would not be wrong. Alyssa was sure about her instincts.

"Miss Alyssa, could it be a mistake? She is taking the child away…” Justin could not help but ask when he saw the woman carry the child away just like that.

Alyssa did not answer and asked, "You can’t get through to Emmett, can you?”

Justin hesitated for a moment but he still chose to tell the truth, "No, I can’t."

Alyssa suddenly laughed in a low voice. Then her laughter became louder and louder. The more she laughed, the more miserable she became. In the end, she even laughed until she burst into tears.

Was this what he said to believe him?

She was surrounded by the people who worked for Emmett everywhere. Now her baby had disappeared and she could not get through to him at all.

What did this mean?

This meant, her child must have been taken away by him. There was no other possibility.

Justin was loss for a moment and did not know how to persuade Alyssa, "Miss Alyssa, don't be like this…"

The maid at the side also tried to persuade Alyssa, "Mrs. Lawrence, you have just delivered the baby. You should pay attention to your health."

Alyssa covered her ears with her hands and screamed at the top of her voice, "Don't call me Mrs. Lawrence! It’s disgusting!"

At this time, with a bang, the door was pushed open from outside.

Alyssa looked up with teary eyes and when she saw that familiar tall and straight figure, she was momentarily stunned.

Their gazes met in the air but neither of them took the initiative to speak.

Hearing the door open, Justin turned his head to take a look and called out happily, "Cousin!"

"I was wondering why I couldn't get through to you. It turned out that you were on your way to Sydney." Justin walked towards Emmett as he spoke.

Emmett ignored him and walked straight to Alyssa's bed.

Alyssa's face was as pale as a sheet of paper and her hair was messy. There were still tears on her

face and she looked very bad.

Emmett sat down in front of the bed and reached out his hand to touch Alyssa's face. Alyssa waved his hand away. She looked at him and gritted her teeth. "You despicable man! I will never believe you again!"

Emmett's face darkened when he heard this. His voice was a little hoarse. "Alyssa, what are you talking about?"

"Are you still acting dumb in front of me at a time like this? Where is my child? Where did you take her? Return my child to me!" Alyssa had already lost her mind. As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed Emmett's clothes tightly.

Emmett's expression suddenly changed. He turned around and asked Justin, "What's going on?"

Justin looked at Alyssa and said. "Miss Alyssa just woke up and said she wanted to see her child. But when the maid carried the child over, she said it was not her child. And she even let someone else take the child away."

Emmett's expression instantly became terrifyingly gloomy. He called out in a deep voice, "Frank."

When Emmett came just now, Frank also came with him. It was just that he did not make a sound, so no one noticed him. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes." Frank knew that Emmett wanted him to investigate the matter about the child, so after receiving the order, he went out at once after saying yes.

Emmett turned around and saw Alyssa staring at him coldly. Her eyes were red and there was a trace of hatred flashing in her eyes.

His expression changed slightly. Then, he reached out and stroked her messy hair. "I will get the baby back. You should have a good rest now."

Alyssa knocked his hand away and slapped him fiercely on his face. She said hatefully, "If you admit that you took the child away, I will admire you for being a man."

Both Justin and the maids were stunned when they saw this scene.

Alyssa used all her strength to give Emmett a fierce slap. Emmett was caught off guard and his head was tilted to the side by her slap. A red mark immediately appeared on his white face at once.

Emmett maintained his posture of tilting his head. He said in a somewhat cold but strangely calm voice. "You guys go out first."

"Cousin." Justin was a little worried about them. So he stood still without moving.

Emmett did not even bother look at him. So Justin had no choice but to walk out unwillingly.

Once Justin and the maid went out, Alyssa and Emmett were the only ones left in the room.

They had not seen each other for more than half a year. Emmett didn’t expect that Alyssa would be so hostile to him when they met again after so long.

Emmett turned his head and looked at Alyssa's weak appearance. His voice could not help but become

much gentler. "You should have a good rest first. We’ll talk about it later. Everything else can wait until you have gotten better."
