Chapter 157
Luther looked up and looked carefully at Alyssa’s face.
Finding Alyssa’s face as usual, she continued: “Sister Lisa was a photographer. Once she went to take a snow scene and encountered an avalanche. The search and rescue team never found her…”
Speaking of the back, Luther’s voice became quieter.
Alyssa was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what to say for a while.
“When did that happen?” Alyssa asked him, raising her head.
Luther said: “Five years ago.”
“Your brother and her…”
Luther pursed his lips and looked a little sad with the corner of his eyes hanging down: “She was my brother’s fiancee.”
Alyssa opened her mouth, feeling a little dumb for a moment.
She lowered her head and glanced at the message that her cell phone friend Gerald had sent her, and moved her finger to reply: “Okay, I will talk to Karl.”
In the avalanche, the search and rescue team did not find anyone. To a large extent, they had already lost their lives. They were buried in the snow and could not be found.
Alyssa felt a little congested in her heart, all the previous emotions were gone.
Long ago, Alyssa had vaguely felt that Karl seemed to dislike her too much contact with Gerald.
Thinking about it now, that’s probably the reason.
Alyssa asked Luther again: “I really look a lot like her?”
Seeing Alyssa’s face as usual, Luther said truthfully, “I think you look alike.”
Alyssa fell silent and stopped talking.
…
Before eating lunch, Karl came back.
The lunch was made by bodyguards, and Alyssa is now a wounded woman, so it is naturally impossible for her to cook.
Karl put down his chopsticks without eating much, and Alyssa didn’t eat much, only Luther ate the most vigorously.
Luther had eaten in two and then went out.
Karl and Alyssa were still sitting face to face, and Karl suddenly said, “What do you want to say?”
Alyssa looked up in surprise, she didn’t even speak, he knew she had something to tell him?
Karl could see her thoughts from her expression: “You are writing all over your face, you have something to tell me, you have a question to ask me.”
“…” Alyssa touched her face, is it so obvious?
Alyssa cleared her throat: “Can I ask anything?”
Karl picked it up slightly. When he was going out in the morning, when the woman was talking to him, she wanted to bite him. Now that she was hesitant to talk, he was even more suspicious.
Karl curled his lips and looked at her with a smile, “Since you know that you can’t ask, then don’t ask.”
“Only you are allowed to investigate me, I can’t ask you questions?” Alyssa also smiled with her lips curled, and stared at him with bright eyes: “You also think I look like Lisa, don’t I?”
Karl’s originally laid-back expression on his face suddenly constricted, and his expression became a little gloomy: “Luther told you?”
“If it is something that I really want to know, even if others don’t tell me, I can still find it!”
After Karl heard this, he had determined that Luther had told her about this. He narrowed his eyes and said, “He told you that you are very similar to Lisa?”
Lisa?
It’s so kind.
Karl always called her “Alyssa”, and when she wanted her to attend the dinner, he called her “wife”.
Alyssa felt that she was ridiculous, and she was jealous of a woman who was most likely not in this world.
Alyssa pursed her lips, her face stretched without speaking.
Karl suddenly said, “I don’t think you are alike at all.”
He dropped these words, got up and left.
…
Because of the mention of Lisa, Alyssa and Karl hadn’t eased the relationship, and they became more stalemate.
Staying with Karl, Alyssa felt that everything was not right. At night, she simply hugged her pillow and went to sleep in the room she had previously lived in.
She just lay down on the bed, and Karl found her.
He stood at the door, embracing his arms and looking at her blankly: “Alyssa, are you going to sleep in a separate room without me?”
Karl’s expressionless expression made Alyssa a little embarrassed.
She hesitated for a while, and found an excuse to say: “I have a foot injury, I am afraid you will not pay attention to touching my foot at night.”
Karl heard the words, and the corners of his lips curled up in a mocking arc: “You fainted in the bathroom last night. I didn’t even touch your feet. Can I touch them after I sleep?”
“…” Alyssa’s face flushed, her lips opened, but she couldn’t find what she wanted to say.
She threw the small pillow next to Karl, “You go out!”
Karl avoided lightly, his tone lightened slightly: “Stop making trouble, go to the room to sleep.”
Obviously she had been making faces for him all day, although he usually didn’t have any expressions, but today is very different, with fewer words, colder expressions, and occasionally walks away.
He was fine when he came back, and since she mentioned Lisa to him, he was not right.
Do you really think she can’t tell?
He could check her out and everything that happened to her since childhood, but she just asked him about his cousin’s fiancee, and he was so abnormal.
Because other women are so abnormal, can’t she express dissatisfaction and unhappy?
Does this seem to be nonsense in his eyes?
What he does is right, she expresses her dissatisfaction is just a fool?
fck him-fcking bullsh!t!
Alyssa thought more and more angry: “Don’t go back!”
And what happened at the banquet that day was also Alyssa’s heart knot.
“At the dinner that day, the eldest brother just held my hand, why are you reacting so strongly? What are you suspicious of! What are you angry about? Even if you are angry, you can go and fight with your elder brother! You toss me What kind of act is that?”
The more Alyssa thought about it, the more she felt wronged and unwilling, her voice was sharp and a little aggressive.
Very few people and events can affect Karl’s emotions, and his series of inexplicable reactions are all related to Lisa.
“Your reaction is so big because you think I look like Lisa a long time ago, right? And Gerald also thinks I look like Lisa, so he held me in a loss when he drank alcohol. Didn’t let go of my hand, you just know this and you get angry!”
“Karl, ask yourself whether you are angry that Gerald shook my hand or that Gerald shook Lisa’s hand!”
“You said that you don’t think I and Lisa look alike, it’s a lie at all, you are lying to me!”
Alyssa finished speaking in one breath, feeling a little agitated, and she felt a little panting.
Karl stood at the door with his face sinking like water, and only after a while said aloud, “Do you think so?”
“It doesn’t matter what I think, the key is what you think in your heart!” Alyssa smiled sourly: “When I first married into Adams’ family, although you acted like you disliked me, you always teased me because of my looks like Lisa, right?”
This time, the gloominess on Karl’s face gradually cracked, revealing a hint of panic: “Alyssa, don’t talk nonsense!”
Chapter 158
Alyssa held the corner of her mouth with a cold smile: “You dare not answer, because you know very well in your heart that you will approach me only because I look like Lisa Palmer.”
Luther said that Lisa’s surname was Palmer.
Karl was kind to her, and special to her, never because she was Alyssa, but because she looked like a woman named Lisa Palmer.
He kept showing her, then looked at another woman.
His kindness to her was also passed on to her by his longing for another woman.
She hadn’t owned anything, all of this belonged to the woman named Lisa Palmer.
Even though Alyssa had already understood all this in her heart, she still hoped to get a negative answer from Karl in her heart.
She hoped to hear the word “no” in his mouth.
However, Karl did not.
He turned around and slammed the door out, hurriedly back.
Alyssa leaned her head back against the bed and looked at the ceiling with her eyes wide open.
Looking up, the tears won’t fall as expected.
…
on Monday.
Alyssa went to work with a cane.
Because Mr. Hunt came back to take charge of the overall situation, the entire company was reorganizing and everyone was very busy.
Alyssa injured her foot and was still assigned to work, but it was relatively easier.
Busy time is always fast. When the busy time is over, it is already seven o’clock in the evening.
Other colleagues next to her are discussing where to go for dinner.
Seeing that Alyssa was still there, they asked whether they were polite or sincere: “Alyssa, do you want to go together?”
“Okay.” Alyssa said with a smile.
They froze for a moment, seeming to feel a little surprised.
In the end, Alyssa could not go to dinner with them, because Tina called her and asked her to help Tina send a set of clothes.
When Alyssa heard this, she felt that it was not easy: “What happened to you?”
“It’s a long story. Anyway, I’m stuck in the locker room, and someone may come in at any time.”
Tina’s voice still sounded very calm, and Alyssa felt a chuckle in her heart: “Send me the address, and I’ll be there soon.”
She suddenly remembered that when Tina first entered the circle, she often complained to Alyssa, how those people rectified new people, how shameless.
Tina even said: “Leave the circle and forget it, anyway, I can live a leisurely life without doing anything while lying at home.”
As a result, she got up early the next morning and went to make an announcement.
Because she likes acting.
A person who has no desires can live his life very simple.
However, if you have what you want and have extravagant desires, you are destined to embark on a difficult journey.
Just like when she decided to accept Karl, she has embarked on a road that was destined to be uneven.
Even if she gets hurt, falls down, and gets abandoned, that’s her own choice.
If she decides to leave now, will she be able to return to the original point and everything will be the same?
Without thinking about it, Alyssa took a taxi to the mall, and quickly bought a set of clothes for Tina inside and out.
…
The place where Tina shot the advertisement was in a temporary studio, and even the dressing room was temporarily constructed, which was not safe.
After Alyssa got in, it took a while to find the locker room.
She whispered all the way: “Tina?”
Tina was finally found in the small dressing room in the corner.
“Alyssa, are you here?” The calm voice sounded a little hoarse.
When Alyssa first came in, she felt it was cold in the dressing room, and those people even turned off the heating. This is a change of tricks and wanting to die!
Alyssa passed the clothes in.
After a while, she heard Tina’s voice: “Damn, my hands are frozen and I can’t put on clothes…”
“…” Alyssa suddenly felt that her worries were unnecessary.
Alyssa had to go in and help her get dressed.
After getting dressed, Tina said with a grin: “If you were a man, I would marry you.”
“I am beautiful.” Alyssa snorted, “If I were a man, I must find a woman like me.”
Tina: “…”
When the two were about to go out, they heard the sound of dialogue outside.
“Which locker room is Tina in?”
“Look for them one by one. The room is so cold, where can she hide without clothes?”
“These women’s methods of punishing people are really the same every day…”
“I’ve seen Tina movies, and she has a good body…”
When Tina heard this, she couldn’t help it anymore, raising her foot and rushing out.
Alyssa stopped her and said in a low voice, “Wait for them to find it, then beat them and send them to the police station. You will scare them away if you go out now.”
Tina then retreated angrily.
Soon the two men found the locker room where Tina and Alyssa were.
Two men walked up one after another, and the man behind was still holding a camera.
Tina had long been unable to hold it back anymore, and greeted the man directly with a punch. The man with the camera behind him saw that the situation was wrong and wanted to run away.
Alyssa jumped over with a cane and hit him hard on the head.
Tina solved the two men two or three times, carrying one in her hand and stepping on one under her feet: “The person who hired you to take pictures of me must be a fool? Isn’t it just taking a picture? It costs such a big time.”
Hearing what Tina said, Alyssa felt lingering fears.
Fortunately, the person who wanted to harm Tina was a fool.
…
Tina and Alyssa called the police and went to the police station together.
The police looked at Alyssa and Tina, who were intact, and at the two men who were already black and swollen and wanted to take a sneak shot. Their expressions were a little weird.
The little girls nowadays, their fighting power really cannot be underestimated.
Karl and Peter arrived before the two of them finished the transcript.
Peter seemed to have rushed over, with messy hair and a coat on him. The collar of the turtleneck sweater inside rolled in and turned out.
He ran over to Tina and asked nervously, “Tina, are you all right!”
Tina pinched her throat and said softly: “It’s okay…I just feel terrible…”
Alyssa trembled all over, although she had just heard Tina speak in this tone, she still felt goosebumps all over her body.
But Peter believed that it was true: “Don’t be afraid, I will kill them for you!”
The police said: “This is the police station.”
Tina turned her head to look at the policeman, sniffed, and said softly, “I really didn’t beat them, but they fell.”
The dramatist who talked nonsense with his eyes open said that it was so cold.
“Yes, how could we two girls beat them like that, besides, my feet still look like this…” Alyssa said with a serious face, the police actually believed it.
