Chapter 1223
When Clifford was speaking, Daisy kept looking at him, her eyes focused and gentle.
When she heard the last two sentences from Clifford, tears flashed in her eyes with a trace of pity.
When a woman begins to pity a man, that is also the beginning of a relationship.
It’s just that Daisy’s pity for Clifford started a long time ago.
Most of the children whom Wilfred admired and adopted had a bad life experience, and Daisy was the same, but she pityed Clifford, a man who was good at calculating and perceiving people.
Maybe this is destined.
“I won’t come to see you often, you can call me if you have anything.”
Alyssa turned to look at Daisy again: “Or, let Daisy call me.”
Daisy was stunned, then turned to look at Clifford.
Clifford moved his lips: “Okay.”
“Then I’m leaving now.” Alyssa straightened up, her expression is cold.
Clifford turned his head to look at Daisy.
“Daisy, see off Alyssa.”
He still called her “Alyssa”, as if the two were still as close as before.
Alyssa is soft-hearted but stubborn, some things can pass, and some things cannot pass.
Daisy naturally listened to Clifford’s words and got up to send Alyssa out.
Her injury was much lighter than Clifford’s injury, but she is also a patient now, and there are still two bottles of medicine hanging on the mobile infusion stand next to her.
Alyssa refused: “No, you can rest well.”
Daisy still helped the mobile infusion stand to walk out.
Alyssa was helpless and stopped talking, and went straight out.
After leaving the ward, she quickened her pace.
However, when she speeded up her pace, the rolling sound of the wheels of the infusion stand behind her also became faster, and Daisy caught up with her and followed her to talk to her.
“Miss Alyssa, thank you.”
Alyssa thought that Daisy thanked her for saving Clifford, and said without looking back, “I owe Clifford a life. This is what I should do, no thanks.”
There was a moment of silence behind her, but the sound of rolling wheels and footsteps were still there, so Daisy was still following her.
When Alyssa was wondering what Daisy was going to do, she heard Daisy’s very depressed voice: “He actually doesn’t want to live anymore.”
“he?”
Alyssa turned back: “You said Clifford?”
“Otherwise, how could Alvin be his opponent.” Daisy gave a bleak smile.
This statement does make sense.
She knew that Alvin was the one who won, and she was a little surprised in her heart, but she didn’t think too much about it. She didn’t bother to worry about unnecessary people.
“Then why does he call me again and ask me to save him?”
Daisy looked at Alyssa carefully, and said inexplicably, “You look so beautiful.”
“It sounds like you are complimenting me.” Alyssa raised her eyebrows, with no expression on her face.
The corners of Daisy’s lips raised a very shallow arc: “You look very similar to Mr. Adams.”
Alyssa had never had such a peaceful conversation with Daisy, and found it interesting, and chatted with her seriously: “It’s probably a husband and wife.”
“The elevator has arrived.” Daisy looked behind Alyssa and reminded her.
Alyssa paused for two seconds before turning around and entering the elevator.
Daisy stood there until the elevator door closed.
Seeing the ever-decreasing floor numbers on the elevator, she recalled the words Alyssa asked in her mind.
——Then why does he call me again and ask me to save him?
She and Clifford have been together for so many years, of course she knew why Clifford called Alyssa.
Chapter 1224
Neither Daisy nor Clifford was a child who grew up in a normal family. It was something they learned from the beginning.
Clifford’s mind is really hard to guess.
But if it is related to Alyssa, his mind becomes easy to guess.
Because Alyssa is not a complicated person, she has a soft temperament but has a firm heart and is a simple person.
Clifford made the phone call to Alyssa at such a juncture. It was nothing more than he wanted to see her.
…
After Alyssa left the hospital, she called Karl.
“I will go to AdamPic now.”
After she made it clear with Karl, Karl did not stop her from coming to see Clifford, and asked the driver to drive her to see him.
Karl’s temper has improved a lot now, and he is not as domineering and easy to get angry as before, but instead she loves to report to him.
Karl was very quiet on the other side: “Well, just go to Peter when you arrive. The people at the front desk will greet you, and they all know you.”
The waiting driver saw Alyssa coming and quickly opened the door. Alyssa bent down and got into the car: “How do you say hello?”
Wouldn’t it mean she and Karl’s wife?
Karl didn’t know what he thought of, and chuckled lightly: “The screenwriter Alyssa is a distinguished guest of CEO Grant.”
“I think you are hurting me.” Alyssa couldn’t help laughing after hearing what he said.
“No.” Karl’s tone became serious: “It’s pretty good.”
Alyssa knew he was referring to the good script she wrote, but deliberately asked, “What’s good?”
“I’m going to have a meeting.” Karl didn’t continue to say anymore, as he was ready to hang up at any time.
Alyssa didn’t plan to let him go just like that, she smiled and said, “I know, did you say that the drama I wrote is good? No wonder you secretly chased the drama in the study in the middle of the night without going back to your room to sleep.”
There was dead silence on the other end of the phone.
He didn’t say anything, but Alyssa could already imagine Karl’s expression now.
It must be whitewashing one’s uneasiness with indifference.
She debunked him on purpose.
After a long while, Karl coughed lightly, and asked her uncomfortably, “How do you know?”
“Because I am Mrs. Adams, what does Mr. Adams do at home, can I not know?”
“…”
“You have a good meeting and have dinner together at noon.”
Alyssa hung up the phone with a big smile.
It’s rare to be able to catch Karl’s braids. It would be good if he was face to face, and she could see his slumped and calm expression.
As for Karl, the older he gets, the more naive he is.
Also… the cuter.
…
Karl put the hung-up phone aside.
He raised his eyes and looked at the executives who were sitting on the opposite side preparing to report to the work, and said indifferently: “Go on.”
One of the executives asked him cautiously: “Mr. Adams, are you going to have a meeting next time?”
Just now Karl said to Alyssa: “I’m going to have a meeting” on the phone.
Karl raised his eyes and said coldly: “If you put the energy of eavesdropping on other people’s phone calls on your work, you won’t be able to make your performance look like this.
The executive who was being trained was a bit wronged.
He also didn’t want to eavesdrop on Karl’s speech, it was Karl who asked them to wait here. What could he do if he accidentally heard him?
“The meeting will be held in the afternoon, you should go out first.” Karl looked down at other documents, indicating that they could go out.
Several senior executives looked at each other and couldn’t believe that Karl was so gentle now. If he left it before, he would have thrown something.
