Chapter 177
Alyssa looked here and there in his room, looking very curious.
In the corner of the desk, she saw a picture of a woman and a child.
The photo was taken in summer. The little boy in the photo is very beautiful, wearing a school uniform with short-sleeved shorts, looking at the camera with a grin, and smiling very brightly.
And the woman next to him, in a white dress that fits snugly, smiles gently, and there is a bit of dust in her calmness.
“My mother.”
Karl’s slightly hoarse voice came from behind.
Immediately afterwards, his arms were wrapped around her waist, and his solid and warm chest was pressed against her back, and she was wrapped in the unique cold breath of Karl’s body.
With the free hand, he reached out to touch the woman in the photo, and slowly explained the source of the photo to her.
“On Children’s Day that year, she came to my school to participate in parent-child activities and took this photo after it was over.”
Alyssa glanced back at him, then set her gaze on the little boy in the photo.
The little boy in the photo smiled brightly, without a trace of haze under his eyes. It was hard to imagine that Karl would be like this in more than ten years.
He is handsome and extraordinary, but there is always a haze that ordinary people can’t understand, and his temper is uncertain. When he encounters something related to his mother, he becomes vicious and determined.
If possible, everyone wants to live happily.
However, Karl was also forced to become like this.
How bad can the human heart be?
Alyssa couldn’t imagine how Karl, who was only eleven years old at the time, looked at his own mother who was being abused and humiliated in front of his eyes to save him.
It is even harder to imagine how long it took him to come out later.
Although Karl’s temperament is unpredictable and he is not a kind person, Alyssa knew that he would never become the same as those who abused and insulted his mother.
If his mother’s case was really related to some people in the Adams’ family…
Alyssa couldn’t help but shudder.
Karl felt the subtle reaction of the person in his arms and asked her aloud, “The heating is too low? It’s cold?”
“No.” Alyssa shook her head, because of Karl’s affairs, her mood became a little depressed: “How many people are there in your family?”
Although she and Karl came in today, and only saw servants and bodyguards along the way, and then Elder man and Trevor, this house is so big that there should be others living there.
Karl shook his head: “don’t know, there are countless people living in old houses, resettled elsewhere, domestically, overseas…too many.”
Karl lowered his eyes, looked at the solemn expression on her face, and calmly changed the subject: “The red envelope the old man gave you, won’t you open it?”
Sure enough, Alyssa was immediately distracted by him. She took out the red envelope and said with a smile: “I think it might be a check.”
Karl also smiled: “The old man is a generous person.”
What he meant is, is he generous to give a check?
Alyssa really couldn’t understand the rich world.
Don’t all the rich people in TV series like to sign checks?
“Take a look.” Karl pulled her to the bed and sat down, staring at her with heavy eyes.
Alyssa opened the red envelope and pulled out a thin card from it.
After just one glance, Alyssa’s eyes widened in shock.
She knew this card, it was the black card that once shocked Isabel and Norris!
Without waiting for her to speak, Karl raised his eyebrows and said, “It’s still a bit sincere, the old man.”
“It is said that this is your Adams global limited edition black card?” After Isabel and the others defrauded the black card last time, Alyssa went to the Internet to check it, but it was only a sporadic statement, which was not accurate.
“Well, only people from the Adams’ family have it, but not everyone has it.” Karl took the black card over and took a look, and found it was a newly made card, and couldn’t help but laugh.
It seems that Grandpa had prepared the meeting ceremony early in the morning, and he already knew Alyssa.
Alyssa asked again: “Then how much money is there?”
Karl replied lightly, “don’t know.”
“I do not know what that means?”
“I have swiped this card since I was young, bought a car, bought a villa, and started a company, but I haven’t spent all of it.”
Alyssa: “…”
…
Alyssa and Karl stayed in Adams’ Old House for one night.
When Alyssa woke up early the next morning, Karl was no longer nearby.
Alyssa guessed that he might have gone to see Mr. Adams.
Karl’s room was very close to where Elder Hunt lived. After Alyssa finished washing, she went downstairs to look for him.
Halfway there, she collided with a woman who was coming.
Alyssa saw a woman walking towards her from a distance, and she let the woman pass by, but the woman seemed to have no eyes, as if she hadn’t seen Alyssa, and she meant to move away. Nothing, but directly hit Alyssa’s shoulder.
The woman raised her head, her delicate face was cold, and she glanced at Alyssa with disgust: “Are you a new servant? Do you know Adams rules?”
The woman in front of her was exquisite and well-dressed, and she knew which eldest lady from Adams’ family was.
Alyssa retorted with a cold face: “don’t know what the Adams’ family rules, I only know that you hit me first.”
There is no such servant in the Adams’ family who dared to confront the lady.
After hearing Alyssa’s words, the woman looked up at Alyssa.
When she saw Alyssa, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes. She was just walking and she didn’t realize that Alyssa was so beautiful.
But Alyssa looked at the woman in front of her at this time and found that she was a little familiar.
After searching her mind, she remembered that the woman in front of her was Anya Adams, the host of a popular variety show recently.
Anya came out suddenly. There was no news before. There have been speculations about her background on the Internet, and some speculation that she is from the Adams’ family, but it has not been confirmed.
“It’s not a servant at home, so don’t run around. The guest should have the self-consciousness that a guest should have. Don’t think that when you are brought back to this house, you can climb on the branch and become a phoenix.” A flash of disdain flashed in Anya’s eyes. , Turned around and left.
There are many men in Adams’ family, and occasionally they will bring women back home overnight. Anya is not surprised, and directly regards Alyssa as that kind of woman.
Alyssa naturally heard her voice.
She rolled her eyes and found that not all the people in the Adams’ family were as smart and thoughtful as Karl, but mostly self-righteous people who couldn’t figure out the facts.
Karl came out of the backyard and was about to ask Alyssa to have a meal, but he didn’t expect she had already found him.
Seeing that her expression wasn’t too right, he couldn’t help asking: “What’s the matter?”
“It’s okay.” Alyssa shrugged.
Karl raised his head and glanced at the other end. Just now Anya came to find the old man, and she was very likely to meet Alyssa when she came out.
Chapter 178
Alyssa and Karl had breakfast with the old man, and planned to leave.
Before leaving, Elder Adams stopped Alyssa: “You stay, I have something to say to you.”
After getting along this day, Alyssa felt that Mr. Adams was actually a nice person, maybe a bit weird, but it was not a problem.
Therefore, when she heard that he had something to tell her, she didn’t hesitate to follow him.
Unexpectedly, after two steps, he was held back by Karl.
Seeing that Mr. Adams’ complexion changed, Alyssa quickly winked at Karl, and said to him with her lips: “Let go.”
Elder man sighed with hatred for iron and steel, “I just need to say a few words to her, can I eat her?”
“Oh.” Karl replied unexpectedly and released Alyssa.
Elder Hunt glared at him, as if wishing to run over and beat him up.
Alyssa hurriedly walked over and helped Elder man into the room inside.
After entering, the Elder Adams changed his irritable appearance before, and his face became calm.
“I know, you weren’t willing to marry Karl at the beginning.” When he spoke, Alyssa was extremely frightened.
She didn’t answer immediately, waiting for him to continue.
“You are a clever child. Naturally, I can see that Karl cares about you. Since you are married to him, you will be the young wife of the Adams’ family in peace. Our Adams’ family will not treat your family badly.”
Although Mr. Adams was expressing his position, he was also threatening Alyssa.
If she had a double heart for Karl, he would not let her go without waiting for Karl to take action.
It can be seen that Mr. Adams really loves Karl.
It’s no wonder that Karl was so disgusted with Adams’ family, he was willing to come back when he knew that Elder man had called him back to the house.
Alyssa was not disgusted with the threats made by Mr. Adams. Instead, she smiled and said, “Grandpa, feelings are mutual. Between me and Karl, and you and Karl are the same.â€
Elder Adams was kind to Karl, and Karl naturally listened to him.
Karl treats her well, and she naturally has no other thoughts.
When Mr. Adams heard the words, he was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter: “The little girl is pretty good at bluffing people, all right, go, don’t let the stinky boy wait for a long time, or he will be anxious when you turn around.”
“Then I will go first, and sometimes I will see you.”
Alyssa went out, but did not see Karl’s figure.
When she got outside,she saw Karl and Anya standing together talking.
Adams’ family’s genes are really good, Anya looks exquisite, and Karl is the best among men. Standing together, the two are very pleasing to the eye.
Alyssa was planning to go over after the two of them had spoken, but Karl turned his head suddenly and looked in her direction as if eyes grew from the back of his head.
Alyssa had to walk over.
Anya also followed Karl’s gaze and looked over. When she saw Alyssa, she frowned slightly, a flash of surprise in her eyes: “She…”
Karl didn’t mean to introduce Alyssa to Anya, so he took her by the shoulder and walked out: “Let’s go.”
Anya subconsciously called to stop him: “Brother.”
Among the younger generations of the Adams’ family, Gerald is the eldest, followed by Karl’s twin sister. According to the ranking, Karl ranks third.
The family members younger than Karl, and they called him the third brother.
Karl left without looking back, but Alyssa looked back at Anya with a smile.
Anya remembered what she had said to Alyssa before, and her face flushed.
She had a good time with Karl when she was a child. Later, when Karl’s mother had an accident, he left the old house and the two of them became strangers. Later, she heard that Karl had been disfigured and had problems with his body. Karl has not been contacted.
Even when she went to a TV station as a host, she didn’t reveal that she was a member of the Adams’ family. She felt ashamed they would ashame her about Karl after others know about it.
After Karl’s true face was exposed a few days ago, her mind became active, thinking about finding time to meet him.
After all, Karl is the only orthodox heir of the family, and he will be in charge of the Adams’ family in the future, and their elder brothers and sisters will have his light.
Before she had time to act, she heard that Karl took his newlyweds back to the old house, so she came back and met.
But she didn’t expect that the woman she thought was brought back by her cousin for the night, turned out to be Karl’s new wife!
don’t know if that woman would chew her tongue in front of Karl…
Anya felt that she had to look for a chance to find Karl again, and try to get in touch with him…
…
In the car, Alyssa sat in the back row, leaning on the back of the seat, staring at the roof with her eyes open.
Karl reached out and touched her head: “Tired?”
“Somewhat.”
It’s not just a little bit, she feels tired.
Although Karl asked her not to have a psychological burden and just let her be herself, how could she not have a psychological burden.
No matter how much Karl resented the Adams’ family, he couldn’t break away from it. Although she was living with Karl, she still wanted to behave better and not trouble him.
Be cautious, afraid of making mistakes, she also has to be careful to deal with Father Adams question.
Karl fished her into his arms, and a low voice rang above her head: “I won’t go back to the old house if I’m fine in the future.”
“You won’t go back to see Grandpa? I think he wants you to go back to see him often.” Alyssa leaned on his chest, her voice muffled.
Karl’s voice suddenly added a hint of coldness: “Even if I don’t go back to see him, he will still eat and sleep.”
Alyssa straightened up and found that Karl’s complexion had indeed changed.
“What’s wrong?” Wasn’t it all right before?
Karl didn’t speak, but just turned his head and k!ssed her.
Alyssa pushed him, there was still some time driving ahead!
But Karl didn’t care, held her head and k!ssed it.
Sit tightly at night without squinting.
Who can understand the mood of a divorced young man at this moment?
When the k!ss ended, both of them panted a little.
Karl hugged her and did not speak, but he was a little lost.
In the morning, he went to see his grandfather in advance, just to ask some details of the mother’s case.
What did Grandpa say at the time?
“This has passed. People should look forward. If your mother is alive in the sky, I hope you can live your life well and look forward.”
What Elder man meant was to stop him from investigating his mother’s case back then.
Why not let him check?
Is he afraid that he will find out something terrible?
However, he wants to check.
