Chapter 27
Rachel stood up and said, “I’ll let the servant prepare the food.”
Isabel didn’t even look at her, and Colin just nodded at her.
Rachel’s complexion became a little ugly, but she didn’t say much.
When she passed by Alyssa, she stopped and said quietly but solemnly: “Come out.”
Colin and Isabel were already sitting together, and they didn’t know what they were talking about in a low voice.
She glanced at them and followed Rachel out.
Rachel pulled her into her former bedroom, and looked at her with a serious face as soon as she closed the door: “Did you let the video be taken?”
Alyssa was slightly startled, she did not expect that Colin would believe her, but Rachel did not believe her.
In her impression, Rachel is a woman who is completely dependent on a man, pinning all her hopes on Colin, weak and without opinion.
“No…” Alyssa shook her head like a rattle, her eyes were clear and bright.
Rachel is indeed a woman with little opinion, but she is Alyssa’s biological mother, and the mother and daughter are connected, she always feels that this is not that simple.
“Your dad and your sister trust you very much, don’t lie to them.” Rachel frowned, in a earnest and serious tone.
Rachel was in a bad family when she was young, but she was a beauty and was good at taking care of others, so Colin married her.
When she was young, she didn’t understand anything, but when she grew up, she understood that Colin would marry Rachel, but he wanted a woman to help him properly take care of the two children left by his dead wife.
To put it bluntly, it’s just a bed-warmer.
She wondered what magic power Colin had that could make Rachel step on the ground so desperately.
“I’m a little hungry.” Alyssa lowered her head and looked at Rachel again, she was not sure what she would say.
After Rachel forced her to marry into Adams’ house, her tolerance for Rachel became less and less.
Rachel felt like she was going too far when she saw her.
She looked at Alyssa, her tone softened a bit, “Come down.”
As soon as Alyssa left the room, her cowardly and aggrieved expression disappeared cleanly.
After she married into the Adams family, she didn’t want to be involved in the Hunt’s family anymore, she just wanted to live a quiet life.
However, the this family refused to let her go.
In that case, let’s just wait and see.
…
When she passed the study, she found that the study door was ajar and there was no one in the room.
Did the father and daughter also go downstairs?
Only when Alyssa walked to the top of the stairs, she vaguely heard someone talking downstairs. Apart from the voices of Isabel’s father and daughter, there seemed to be other men’s voices.
Who else will come to Hunt’s house at this time?
She walked down the stairs curiously, and when she finally saw the man’s face, she was confused.
Colin had already seen her, and he waved at her to sign her over, his tone was uncharacteristically gentle: “Alyssa, come here, Karl asked his cousin to pick you up.”
Alyssa didn’t expect to see “Luther” at Hunt’s house, her face was too surprised to hide.
He wore a very sturdy suit today. The tailoring is very expensive at first sight. There is a smile on his handsome face. He sits there casually, but exudes a strong aura.
Probably because he felt her gaze, he also raised his eyes to look at her: “Cousin, cousin asked me to pick you up.”
When he spoke, the smile on his lips deepened a bit, and his voice that was so low that there was no emotional ups and downs sounded a kind of inexplicable ambiguity.
Alyssa opened her mouth and said with great difficulty: “Oh.”
But Isabel seemed to be thinking of something suddenly, leaning to Colin’s side, whispering something, and while she was talking, she glanced at Alyssa.
Without listening, she could guess that Isabel must have said nothing good.
Karl took advantage of this gap to look at Alyssa, and when his eyes scanned her red and swollen face, a shadow of evil prey flashed quickly in her dark eyes, and her hand on the arm of the sofa tightened unconsciously. A bit.
No matter how ugly and not good looking, Alyssa is a woman!
He hadn’t done anything to her himself, and these people dared to do it to her.
Karl glanced at Colin and Isabel who were sitting there, then turned to look at Alyssa, with a low tone: “Come and sit.”
Alyssa didn’t really want to sit there, but the unscrupulous behavior style of “Luther” made her a little hesitant. She didn’t know what he was doing in Hunt’s house today, so she decided to follow him first.
She didn’t believe that Karl would let “Luther” pick her up.
She just sat down next to “Luther” and saw him turning to look at her, with a faint tone: “Cousin’s face is so swollen, I almost can’t recognize you.”
Only then did Alyssa remember that she had been slapped by Isabel before, and her face was swollen long ago. Isabel hit so hard that she was numb with pain, and for a while, she forgot about it.
When Karl spoke, he deliberately or unintentionally glanced in the direction of Isabel and Colin.
Isabel was originally a little scared because of the powerful aura exuding from Karl’s body. At this moment, when she saw him asking about Alyssa’s face, her heart trembled, and she cast a threatening look at Alyssa.
Alyssa’s eyebrows moved, showing a look of fear, pursing her lips and explaining to “Luther”: “I accidentally… fell.”
Such a bad lie can be broken without scrutiny.
Karl narrowed his eyes, leaned forward and approached Alyssa, saying unclearly, “Really?”
Alyssa didn’t dare to look at him, lowered her head with a guilty conscience, “…Yes.”
Karl laughed and stopped talking.
Alyssa deciphered four words from his laughter: ignorance of good and bad.
“Luther” came in the name of picking her up. From another aspect, it can be regarded as showing Karl’s importance to Alyssa.
Whether he was sent by Karl or not, Alyssa knew that if she told “Luther” that her swollen face was beaten by Isabel, he would definitely help her.
Alyssa felt that she could handle the Hunt family’s affairs well. On the other hand, it was because “Luther” was too dangerous and she didn’t want to involve him too much.
Colin was very satisfied with Alyssa’s answer, and his tone became more gentle: “Master Adams came to Hunt’s house specially, so let’s go after dinner together.”
Karl leaned on the sofa and said casually, “Okay.”
For Colin, this was indeed a surprise.
Although “Luther” is just a sideman of the Adams family, it’s not wrong to flatter yourself.
The servant took Colin’s mobile phone and said that there was a call for him to answer. Colin got up and went out to answer the phone. Isabel was uneasy and found an excuse to leave.
For a time, only Alyssa and Karl were left in the hall.
Alyssa looked around, frowned and asked him in a low voice, “What are you doing?”
Chapter 28
Hearing this, Karl turned his head slightly to look at her, his expression still sloppy: “I came to pick you up.”
Alyssa pursed her lips, and whispered like a thief: “Don’t be fooling around.”
“Whatever you think.” Karl smiled, seeming not to care what she thinks.
He did not make a special trip to pick up Alyssa.
He just wanted to come to visit the Hunt family for a while, and the online incidents were a bit big. Although it didn’t affect him much, it was troublesome.
Alyssa is a troublesome wife, but if Hunt’s family is too troublesome, he doesn’t mind solving it by himself.
Alyssa wanted to say something more when she saw Rachel and Colin coming down from the stairs, followed by Isabel.
The two didn’t know what they said, and Alyssa’s eyes were not friendly.
“Isabel, come over and chat with Young Master Adams.” After Colin finished speaking, he looked at Alyssa: “Alyssa, dad wants to tell you something. Come with me.”
Alyssa glanced at Isabel, got up and followed happily.
Isabel walked to the side of Karl and was about to sit down where Alyssa had sat before. Unexpectedly, Karl suddenly said coldly, “Stay away from me.”
Isabel’s face became stiff. She remembered that the last time she saw this man, she took the initiative to invite him into the villa and sit down. This man also showed no mercy.
This man is simply unkind!
I don’t know what is so good about Alyssa’s bun, he is still willing to pick her up.
…
Alyssa followed Colin to the study.
Colin asked her with a serious face: “What is your relationship with that Luther?”
“It doesn’t matter.” Alyssa shook her head, looking innocent.
“The last time you came back to Hunt’s house, your mother and Isabel both saw what you did in the car!” Colin slapped the table with anger.
With a loud “pop”, Alyssa shrank her neck in fright.
“If you are married to Karl, you have to be what you are meant to be with peace of mind. What is it that you hook up with his cousin?”
Alyssa sneered in her heart. She had never seen Colin caring about her so much before.
When she raised her head, an innocent expression was put on her face: “I don’t have one.”
Colin looked at Alyssa, his eyes fell on her face, a touch of disgust floated in the bottom of his eyes.
He and Rachel have both outstanding looks, how could Alyssa be such an ugly daughter?
Had it not been for DNA testing, he would have suspected that Alyssa was not his own.
She grows up like this, indeed she has no capital to hook up with men.
These thoughts in his heart will naturally not be expressed, after all, Alyssa is still useful to him.
“If you don’t have it, you can take your sister to Adams’ house if you have time, so that she can get to know more friends.” As soon as the voice changed, he said casually, “Karl’s cousin is also good.”
Colin had said this before, and Alyssa asked him with a ignorant expression: “Doesn’t she have a lot of friends with her sister? She still has Norris.”
“What do you know!” Colin glanced at her coldly, “Go down.”
“Oh.”
Alyssa shrank her neck, turned around and went downstairs with a frightened look.
…
At the dinner table, Colin kept asking Karl’s position in the company and who his parents were from the Adams family.
“I haven’t seen Master Adams before in Rostenvel. Have you just returned from abroad?”
Karl raised his eyelids, glanced at Colin, and said slowly: “I just returned to the country and got a job in the company.”
There was a glint in Colin’s eyes and a gentle smile: “Then where are your parents? Are they still abroad?”
Karl was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore, and handed the bowl to Alyssa: “Cousin, help me serve the soup.”
Alyssa looked up and saw a bowl in front of her.
His fingers are clean and slender, and they look very nice when they are clasped on the edge of the white porcelain bowl.
Alyssa was taken aback, and she realized once again that “Luther” was a real family prince with arrogance from head to toe.
She took the bowl, raised her eyes, and saw impatience looming in his eyes.
She didn’t say anything, she got up and filled him with a bowl of soup and put it in front of him.
“Thank you.” If the corners of his lips were raised seemingly, as if he was smiling, but there was no obvious curve.
Alyssa looked at him blankly: “You’re welcome.”
Is this kind of family prince who can act like this?
Colin’s words were ignored by Karl, his face was not very good.
He could vaguely see that “Luther” seemed a little close to Alyssa. As a result, he felt more and more that it was the right way for Alyssa to link Isabel and “Luther”.
As for Isabel’s current boyfriend Norris, he is just a spare tire.
Colin thought about it and wanted to talk.
Karl glanced at Colin calmly, rushed to Alyssa and said, “I’m full, let’s go.”
After he finished speaking, he stood up and said, “Thank you for your hospitality.”
Although he said thankful words, his expression seemed to be giving orders instead.
This kind of aura is innate.
And his defiant appearance is very arrogant.
But it is also very charming.
Alyssa felt that she might have been slapped by Isabel’s slap, otherwise how could she find the young master “Luther” very charming?
“Dad, then I’ll… leave first.” Although Alyssa wanted to leave a long time ago, she still had to do a full set of acting.
Colin didn’t have time to say what he wanted to say, and he was a bit aggrieved at first, and Alyssa directly hit the muzzle.
He glared at Alyssa and yelled at her with anger: “Don’t go!”
Alyssa hung her head patiently and walked out with her bag.
Colin and the three also went out to send them off.
I have to say that power is a good thing. Even if “Luther” didn’t give Colin face, Colin still wanted to greet him with a smile.
A family of three stood in front of the villa: “Master Adams, come again next time.”
Karl glanced at them with a smile, and then turned to look at Alyssa who was standing in front of the car, with a low voice, “Not coming up yet?”
Alyssa heard this, opened the door to get into the car, but found that she couldn’t open it at all.
She looked at “Luther” in surprise.
Karl frowned, and his eyes flashed impatience: “Fool, you still want me to be your driver?”
She just didn’t want to sit next to him!
But when he said so, she had to open the door of the co-pilot and sat in.
The car drove out slowly, and the cabin was quiet.
Alyssa always felt that “Luther” came to Hunt’s house today inexplicably.
“Really Karl asked you to pick me up?” After thinking about it, she couldn’t think of any other purpose he could come to the Hunt family.
Karl looked ahead without squinting, and said indifferently, “Otherwise? Do you think I wanted to come by myself?”
“Oh, all right.
