Chapter 243
Mr. Adams frowned and said, “Let’s eat first.”
The lunch at noon was announced early in the morning for everyone to eat together.
Although Mr. Adams has retired, he is the head of the family and has absolute authority and right to speak in the family.
Everyone must respect him.
Of course, except for Karl.
Even Elder Adams couldn’t help Karl.
Mr. Adams is conservative, especially fancy New Year.
When Alyssa came here in the morning, Elder Adams sent someone to say that today and tomorrow, if there is no big business, be sure to have dinner with everyone in the old house.
Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, and the day after tomorrow is New Year’s Day.
The Adams’ family is a big family, there will be many guests coming and going at the beginning of the New Year, everyone is busy.
But Gerald did not eat at home at noon today, so Father Adams was naturally unhappy.
Alyssa thought maliciously, if Elder Adams knew that Gerald was going to pick up Isabel from prison today, she didn’t know what he would be angry with.
Will it be so angry that people directly beat Gerald?
It wasn’t until they finished their meal that Gerald hurried back.
“Grandpa.”
Gerald walked in from the outside and looked like he was in a hurry.
A large table of people have eaten and have not left.
Mr. Adams raised his head and glanced at Gerald, with a deep voice: “I know you’ll be back!”
He has a straight face, his brows are raised high, and he sits upright in the upper position without anger.
Alyssa couldn’t help but straightened her back and sat upright, and she found Gerald’s whole body trembled.
Older gingers are more spicy.
It turned out that Gerald would also be afraid of admiring the old man.
“I’m sorry, grandpa, there was a delay in work.” Gerald lowered his head and looked obediently educated. On the contrary, Mr. Adams calmed down.
Although Mr. Adams had deflated, his tone was still a little harsh: “The entertainment industry is smoggy, and every day there are unconventional news coming out. Sooner or later, your reputation in that circle will be ruined. It is better to withdraw early and do something else!”
Alyssa squeezed Karl’s hand under the table.
Karl turned to look at her.
Alyssa opened her mouth and said silently, “What about you.”
Karl founded a film and television company, and Mr. Adams also looked down upon it.
Karl squeezed Alyssa’s finger, and gave her a warning look.
Alyssa squinted her eyes and smiled silently, Karl turned his face away, and said to Elder Adams: “Grandpa, I’m a little tired. I’m going back to the room first.”
After he finished speaking, he pulled Alyssa to get up and left without waiting for Mr. Adams to answer.
Elder Adams couldn’t control Karl, he was very satisfied that he was willing to come back to his old house for the New Year, and naturally he would not care about Karl’s own way of doing things.
Gerald turned his head and glanced at the two, with a slight unwillingness in his eyes.
He just didn’t come back for a meal, and was about to be reprimanded by his grandpa, but Karl could be unscrupulous.
Grandpa always loved Karl.
Alyssa was led by Karl, obediently like a quail, following him without squinting.
When the two were about to walk out of the restaurant, they heard Trevor’s voice behind them.
“Dad, I don’t want to let Gerald go to work in Adams’ family. He has been close to Karl since he was a child. It hasn’t been long since Karl came to Adams’ family, and there are not a few trusted people around him. “
If it was a month ago, Alyssa would have heard Trevor’s words and would definitely agree.
However, the things that Gerald has done recently indicate that he is going to fight against Karl and to fight against Karl everywhere.
And when he was in the old house last time, Trevor also mentioned this.
At that time, Trevor was able to say that it was almost meant to make Karl and Gerald look after each other.
And Trevor had clearly confessed his attitude, but he didn’t expect that Trevor would come out in front of Mr. Adams today.
Isn’t it obvious that Karl was forced to work with Gerald with the help of Mr. Adams?
Alyssa couldn’t figure out what Trevor was thinking.
The relationship between Karl and Trevor has not been very good over the years, and Trevor seems to want to repair the relationship between the father and son.
But sometimes, what Trevor did was not like he wanted to repair the relationship with Karl.
The Karl in front of him had already stopped.
Alyssa looked up at him, and saw him turn around.
She thought he would say something, but Karl just sneered at Trevor.
When the two returned to the room, Karl took off his jacket and sat on the sofa, his eyes were a little empty, he didn’t know what he was thinking, and it seemed that he didn’t think of anything.
Alyssa asked him: “Thinking about what your dad said just now?”
“No.” Karl shook his head.
“Then what are you thinking?” Alyssa walked to the side and sat down, looking at him sideways.
Karl directly fished her into her arms and held her, resting his chin on her forehead, and said softly, “It’s nothing.”
“Lying.” Alyssa stretched out a finger, pressed her tightened eyebrows, shook his head and said, “You have been betrayed here.”
Karl stared at her for two seconds, then suddenly laughed, holding her arm tightened for a few minutes, half-joking and half-seriously saying: “I regretted it, I should have tortured Isabel to death. To eliminate the troubles forever.”
Alyssa was startled, her face suddenly changed.
Isabel wanted to kill her, and she also hated Isabel, but she never thought about how to kill Isabel.
Life should be respected, and no one has the right to end the lives of others casually.
This is a concept deeply rooted in Alyssa’s heart.
Moreover, after all, Isabel is a relative of hers.
She would try her best to get Isabel to be punished by law, and she didn’t want to watch Karl use his own means to deal with her.
“Is this scared?” Karl reached out his hand and touched Alyssa’s face: “You haven’t seen me murder.”
His voice was very soft, and it even sounded softer than the usual cold voice without emotion.
But she heard a sharp cold feeling in her ears.
Alyssa tried to find a reason to convince him: “She will receive the punishment she deserves, you…”
“The punishment?”
Karl laughed, his tone was mocking and cold: “The punishment that should be given is to go in for ten days and be released?”
It’s just been locked for more than ten days, how can he calm the anger in his heart?
Almost, his wife and child were gone.
Alyssa couldn’t find anything to refute him.
She felt that everything shouldn’t be like this.
She also felt that Isabel’s punishment was too light, but she felt that Karl could not always deal with the problem in this violent way.
Karl k!ssed her on the forehead, his voice was a little gloomy: “She has to pay the price.”
Chapter 244
Alyssa opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Karl let go of her, with a rare gentleness in her voice: “You should take a nap.”
After Alyssa became pregnant, she had the habit of taking a nap.
Her mind was also a little confused, so she nodded: “Yeah.”
She lay down on the bed, closed her eyes and thought that she would not be able to sleep, but after a while she fell asleep.
Seeing Alyssa fell asleep, Karl tucked the quilt for her and got up and went out.
Karl carefully closed the door and walked under a jujube tree in the yard.
It was planted by his mother when he was very young. He doesn’t remember exactly how old he was.
It was deep winter at this time, the jujube tree was bare without a leaf, and there was not even a dead leaf under the tree, because the yard was cleaned by servants every day.
There was a sound of footsteps behind him.
Immediately afterward, Gerald’s voice sounded: “Others say that we are very close, and they only see the surface. Both of them are about the same height and body shape. Standing facing each other, they are evenly matched. feel.
Gerald laughed, and his tone was as gentle as usual: “You have to cancel the contract with me for the sake of Alyssa, and you don’t hesitate to buy trolls to bring me a rhythm on the Internet, and our brotherly feelings are nothing more than that.”
Karl didn’t even blink his eyes, and didn’t move at all: “You can step on your feet with dignity for Isabel, and you are nothing more than that.”
——You are nothing but that.
This sentence severely impacted Gerald’s eardrum.
His expression became very ferocious in an instant: “Why do you look down on me?”
Karl still had the expressionless appearance: “I really look down on you. I really want to deal with me, so you just rush to me. Don’t attack a woman, especially a pregnant woman.”
Isabel drove to hit Alyssa, but was instigated by Gerald.
It was because of this incident that Karl was completely angered.
“Also, I don’t need you to do things like hacking you. After leaving AdamPic Media, who do you think you are? You are just Gerald. Who knows how those people want to deal with you?”
There was no contempt in Karl’s tone, but Gerald felt Karl’s disdain for him.
Gerald clenched his fists, suppressed his anger and said, “Uncle let me come to Adams’ family!”
Karl replied lightly, “It’s up to you.”
After he finished speaking, he looked down at the time.
Alyssa’s nap usually lasts forty minutes to an hour, and now he smokes a cigarette before going back, she almost wakes up.
Karl took out the cigarette case and lit a cigarette without anyone else.
Seeing that Karl completely ignored him, Gerald didn’t take his own humiliation here, took a deep look at Karl, then turned and left.
Because of his mother, Karl had become taciturn and difficult to get close to him since he was a teenager. Later, because of Luther, he and Karl gradually got closer.
Later, it was Karl who set up a film and television company. He joined AdamPic, and the relationship between the two got closer.
Ten years ago, he was just an adult.
Even though they have been obedient children since childhood, at that age, most of them have a bit of rebellion in their bones.
So he entered the show business behind his family.
In the beginning, he didn’t hold Adamsch hope, had no purpose, and didn’t love that line. He didn’t think Karl could make AdamPic Media much bigger.
Many things in life are unpredictable.
It’s like he didn’t intend to enter the show business circle, but it was ten years after he stepped in.
After ten years, AdamPic Media has become the leader in the entertainment industry.
Ten years has also strengthened his relationship with Karl.
in case……
There is no if in this world.
At this time, Gerald had already reached the door of his room.
He pushed in and locked the door, walked straight to the safe, took out the key and opened the safe.
There are two DNA test reports lying quietly inside.
He curled his lips, the curvature of the corners of his lips was very cold.
He took out the two DNA test reports, walked into the bathroom, and ignited the two DNA test reports with a lighter in front of the sink.
He watched the test reports that made his life fall into the abyss of hell burned to ashes, and turned on the faucet blankly, allowing the water to wash away the black ash.
Life is really boring.
As if he lived for twenty-eight years seriously, it was just a joke in the end.
Ah.
…
Karl took only two puffs of the cigarette, and then it was pinched out.
He glanced in the direction where Gerald had disappeared, then turned and walked back.
With a casual glance, he saw a figure swaying beside a bunch of evergreen plants.
Karl strode over and saw Luther who was about to sneak away.
“Still running?” Karl narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
Luther hurriedly turned around, smiling to please: “Cousin.”
“What do you hide here for?”
“No, nothing.”
“Ok?”
Karl’s suspicious look forced Luther’s truth out.
“I passed by before and saw you and my brother here, and then…” I couldn’t resist hiding here to eavesdrop.
From the dialogue between Karl and Gerald, Luther could hear that the two had completely broken apart.
Luther was a little sad, and whispered: “You and my brother, why did this happen? can’t you guys be good as before…”
Karl didn’t want to pay attention to Luther’s question, but seeing Luther’s sad expression on his face, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said, “You have to ask your brother.”
Luther looked at him with a confused look. He also knew a little about the Internet, but he couldn’t figure it out.
Karl thought this kid was annoying.
But he still patiently explained to him: “Alyssa will join him on the trending search, it is all arranged by him, and later he was scolded by the him…”
Luther went to Gerald’s during that time, and read these things on the Internet. At that time, he also joked to let Alyssa be with his brother.
“Why did he do this?”
“You have to ask him.”
Karl did not tell Gerald instigated Isabel to hit Alyssa.
Luther is still too young. Although he is annoying, he is the kind child he grew up with.
Karl sighed inaudibly, and touched Luther’s head: “Go back to the room, it’s cold outside.”
He walked two steps forward and was stopped by Luther: “Cousin.”
When he turned his head, he saw Luther frowning and saying, “Before the scandal between him and Sister Alyssa became serious, he had been to the hospital several times, but during that time he was not sick, as if he was investigating something.”
Karl’s expression was horrified, and then he nodded.
