Chapter 197
Karl looked at Alyssa with a sinking face: “Blame me?”
Karl didn’t come last night, Alyssa was indeed a bit to blame for him.
But after he explained it later, Alyssa didn’t blame him anymore.
But the tone of her speech just now sounded uncomfortable.
“No.” Alyssa didn’t want to talk to him more, turned over and got out of bed holding his clothes and went into the bathroom.
Karl’s previous tone was as if he wanted to go on a trending search with Gerald.
She said that she could prepare to debut after a few trending searchs, and she was making just a joke.
Alyssa was angry, and after washing and changing clothes, she went downstairs without paying attention to Karl.
During the breakfast, the two of them went to work in the company without saying a word.
When Alyssa came to AdamPic Media, she met Tina.
Tina pulled her aside directly: “Have you eaten with Mr. Cain?”
Tina would ask this, it must be because she saw the trending search again.
Alyssa nodded without any energy, “Originally, Karl had an appointment with eldest brother to have a meal. Karl was in the company, so I went ahead of time.”
She briefly explained what happened last night to Tina.
Tina scratched her hair in disregard of her image: “But, how could Gerald Cain be so careless? You have been photographed recently…”
Yes, Gerald has been in the entertainment industry for ten years and should be very sensitive to paparazzi.
However, he has been photographed frequently recently, and the photos are still so clear…
The more she thought about it, the more weird Alyssa felt.
While talking with Tina, she walked towards the elevator entrance.
The elevator door opened, and Gerald and his agent Ruba came out from inside.
With no outsiders, Gerald smiled and shouted, “Alyssa.”
Alyssa glanced at him with complicated eyes, and said “Um” with a sense of distance.
Gerald’s eyes flickered, but he didn’t say much.
When he turned to leave, Alyssa suddenly stopped him: “Big Brother, when you were in Best Day yesterday, did you really not notice anyone taking photos?”
Gerald turned his back to her. He didn’t turn his head back, but his body obviously paused slightly.
On the contrary, Ruba, who was walking beside him, looked back at Alyssa with surprise in his eyes.
After two seconds, Gerald turned his head back, with apologetic eyes: “Sorry, I was careless, but I will take care of this matter.”
His smile and tone were still gentle, but Alyssa frowned when she heard what he said.
When Gerald was far away, Tina leaned against Alyssa’s ear and said, “The big movie emperor is different, gentle and generous, so I look for a boyfriend like this.”
Alyssa retracted her gaze, shook her head and said, “I don’t think so.”
“Of course you don’t think, after all, you have our big boss…”
Tina was chattering in her ears, but Alyssa had no intention of listening.
From the first meeting, Gerald gave her the feeling that he was gentle and generous, and she felt very good, and she was someone who couldn’t help getting close.
However, recently, when she saw Gerald again, she always felt that he was weird.
In retrospect, she realized that she had never seen Gerald angry, even when he changed his face.
There is always a smile on his face, it seems that no matter what happens, he will not be angry, and he will always be so calm.
No one knows what makes him angry and out of control.
No, she saw it once, at the entrance of the tea house.
Thinking about it this way, Alyssa realized that after the teahouse meeting, when she saw Gerald again, he was different.
Smile when you meet people, and still be gentle when you talk to people.
But she is very sensitive-feeling that something is different.
Is it because she has always been thinking about the tea house, and is she admiring it for psychological reasons?
…
In the morning because of the trending search, Alyssa and Karl left unhappy.
The two were busy with their work all day long, and neither had time to contact anyone.
At night, after Alyssa fell asleep, Karl returned.
He walked in gently, and saw Alyssa put one hand outside, and the phone fell beside her hand.
It should have fallen asleep looking at the phone.
Karl put his mobile phone aside, put his hand back, sat on the bed and stared at her for a while before getting up and going into the bathroom.
Hearing the sound of the bathroom door closing, Alyssa, who was still asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
Recently, Karl came back late, and he told her not to wait for him, but she would still wait for him to come back subconsciously, so she slept very lightly and didn’t feel at ease. She woke up at the slightest movement.
She turned over and went back to sleep with her back to the bathroom, but she became more sober as soon as she closed her eyes.
Before long, Karl came out of the bathroom.
He had only turned on a small wall lamp when he came in before, and did not turn on the headlight in the room. He was afraid that Alyssa would wake up if the light was too bright.
The light in the room was dim at this moment, and he also noticed that Alyssa turned over.
He tucked Alyssa’s quilt, and lay down on the bed from the other side, habitually reaching out and hugging her into his arms.
But he soon felt the body in his arms stiff.
He noticed that Alyssa was mostly awake, but there was no sound.
After a while, Alyssa couldn’t hold back, pretending to turn over, and got out of his embrace.
Feeling his arms empty, the aura on Karl’s body became cold and severe.
This woman is angering him.
He stretched out his hand to hug her again, and it didn’t take long for Alyssa to repeat the same trick.
After going back and forth several times, Karl’s patience finally ran out.
In the dark night, his voice was deep and cold: “Alyssa, what are you making?”
Alyssa didn’t pretend to sleep anymore, and said quietly, “No.”
The voices of both people were sober, and they didn’t seem like people preparing to sleep at all.
Karl was silent for a moment, and continued: “I’m very busy these days, you behave better.”
“Oh? Do you think I’m not good enough?” Alyssa sneered, “I’m busy too.”
The little conflict between the two in the morning is not even a quarrel.
It’s a small matter, if Karl coaxed her, it would have passed.
But his tone now sounded like he was blaming her.
Sometimes, after the conflict between two people deepens, it is difficult to distinguish right from wrong.
Both of them have been very busy recently. Karl came back late, and he basically couldn’t sleep well, and she wasn’t much better than him.
Isn’t she good enough not to be noisy?
He can only make her behave, but he can’t coax her?
Anger was fermenting in heart, Alyssa lifted the quilt and got out of bed: “I’ll go to sleep in another room and calm down.”
Chapter 198
After Alyssa finished speaking, she turned on the lights and reached for her mobile phone to leave.
Karl said he was tired, but she was not tired.
In this case, it is the best result to calm down.
But Karl refused to let her go like this.
He had long legs, got off the bed, walked in front of her three or two steps and blocked her way: “Don’t make trouble at night.”
“It’s you now.” Alyssa raised her head to look at him, her expression as cold as his.
Karl stretched out his hand and squeezed his eyebrows, his eyes were full of fatigue: “Because of the morning?”
Alyssa didn’t speak, the matter in the morning was just a fuse.
Both of them have been too busy recently. Even if they live under the same roof, they can only meet when they wake up in the middle of the night.
Yesterday, when they had dinner in Best Day, Alyssa thought that Karl would be there on time, but he was still late.
But he also explained that there was a small car accident and traffic jam on the road. Alyssa was not an unreasonable person, so naturally she didn’t care.
But early this morning, she and Gerald went on a trending search again, and she was depressed at first, and Karl’s tone of accusation made her unbearable.
Emotionally, women care about the attitude of men most of the time.
“It’s too late today, I don’t want to talk about it again.” Alyssa really didn’t want to tell him about it in the middle of the night.
After all, she still has to go to work tomorrow. Karl has been too busy recently. She hopes that the small conflict between the two can be eased and talked about later.
However, during this period of relaxation, sleeping in separate rooms for two people is undoubtedly the best choice.
Otherwise she is really worried that the two will quarrel.
Karl said blankly: “Okay.”
Then he picked her up and hugged her back to the bed, domineeringly circled her in his arms: “Go to sleep.”
Alyssa found that reasoning with Karl was completely unworkable.
The next morning, Alyssa was awakened by Karl.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she faced Karl’s deep black eyes.
“Woke up?”
He said to proceed, and a pair of generous hands was swimming along the curve of her body-walking.
She reached out and held his hand: “What are you doing!”
Morning’s voice was slightly mute, sounding a little childish.
Karl’s eyebrows moved slightly, he leaned over and k!ssed her, followed her flushed cheeks to the base of her ears, and panted and said, “I have been too busy these days to exercise.”
“Only yesterday…”
“It was the night before.”
Karl interrupted the words behind her, sliding his long fingers across her lower abdomen and leaning down.
Alyssa panted slightly: “Hurry up, go to work…”
At this time, he is still thinking about going to work. It seems that he has been too busy recently.
Karl’s movements this time were much gentler than before.
To be too gentle is…torture.
He showed more patience than ever before.
Finally, when Alyssa couldn’t help gasping and screaming, he lowered his body, but didn’t go !n immediately. Taking advantage of her confusion, threatened and lured: “Are you still talking about sleeping in separate rooms?”
Alyssa was tortured and trembling slightly at this time, biting her lip and shook her head: “No…”
“Really good.” After Karl said, he went in calmly.
The suffocating squeeze made Karl sigh, and the gentle and patient disguise all retreated in an instant, like a hungry wolf, as cruel and anxious.
Alyssa was rendered helpless by him, and could only be forced to bear it.
In a daze, Alyssa remembered that she and Karl were still arguing…
Why did they roll together again.
In the end, she didn’t figure out this question, because she was so tired that she fell asleep.
Karl hugged her and took a shower. She woke up in the middle and said dazedly, “Go to work.”
Karl applied shower gel to her, his voice was rare and gentle: “I have asked you for a leave.”
“Oh.” Alyssa responded, and closed his eyes groggyly.
After holding her back to the bed and covering with the quilt, Karl sat on the side of the bed and stared at her.
He hadn’t been sleeping well all the time, but with Alyssa in his arms, he slept peacefully.
As long as his arms are empty at night, he will wake up, and then pull her into his arms.
When he slept until midnight last night, he felt Alyssa break free from his arms and fell asleep to the other side. He woke up and put her in his arms again.
As a result, Alyssa’s first reaction turned out to be to push him.
She wouldn’t be like this before.
This made Karl panicked.
He has been too busy lately. The two of them can only meet in bed after all day. The day before yesterday, they finally found time to have a meal together, but they encountered a small car accident on the road.
When he arrived at Best Day, seeing Alyssa’s disappointed eyes, his heart was extremely irritable.
However, when he entered the Adams’ family, he had too many things to deal with, and he had to put the power in his own hands to make it more convenient for him to check his mother’s affairs in the future.
The next day he saw Alyssa and Gerald on the trending search again, his boredom escalated, and he couldn’t help but speak.
Alyssa is delicate in mind, even if he is angry, it is not a quarrel, but terribly calm.
If she makes a big quarrel, he can better coax her.
But she was very calm and sensible, even thinking about working the next day and sleeping in separate rooms.
Sleep in separate rooms?
impossible.
It’s impossible in this life.
Buzzing–
Karl’s cell phone rang.
Trevor came here.
Trevor asked aloud, “Why did you ask for leave?”
“I don’t feel well.” Karl’s voice was still a little hoarse because he had just done “vigorous exercise,” and it did sound like he was sick.
When Trevor heard this, he didn’t ask much, but only asked him: “Get a good rest.”
After hanging up the phone, Karl smiled mockingly.
He felt that he might have been poisoned by Alyssa, and he could not see her upset.
…
Alyssa woke up faintly and smelled the fragrance of the food.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Karl playing with his chopsticks at the small table.
Alyssa likes to see him drooping in home clothes, because he doesn’t look cold at all, but rather gentle.
It is the gentleness that only she can see.
It’s just…how did you get together again! ! !
Karl had already noticed that she was awake, raised his eyes and smiled at her: “When you wake up, come and eat.”
Alyssa turned her head, not wanting to look at him.
Unreasonable men, the way to deal with things is to go to bed? ? ?
In the next second, Alyssa suddenly bounced off the bed: “What time is it?”
She still has to go to work!
Karl said quietly, “I have asked for leave.”
Only a few days after Alyssa went to AdamPic Media, did she ask for leave because of this kind of thing?
She checked the time, it was too late, it was already ten o’clock.
The two sat face to face at the table for dinner, the atmosphere was still a bit weird.
Alyssa hesitated for a moment, and asked the question from the bottom of her heart: “What kind of person do you think Big Brother is?”
