Chapter 397
Alyssa only glanced roughly, and then sat down on the bed.
Grace took off her shoes, climbed onto the bed and sat side by side with Alyssa.
In the past, Alyssa felt that Grace was too cute, not to mention that she now knew that Grace was her biological daughter, and she felt so cute no matter how she looked.
Alyssa touched her head, bowed her head and k!ssed her face.
Grace opened her eyes wide, and lifted up to k!ss Alyssa’s cheek.
She giggled after k!ssing, probably thinking it was funny.
Alyssa k!ssed her again, and Grace crawled on her.
The two rolled into a ball on the bed, and Grace giggled when Alyssa was scratching.
When Grace was tired from playing, Alyssa lay on her side holding her little hand.
Feeling that someone was looking at her, Alyssa stood up and saw Karl who had been standing by the door without knowing when.
Alyssa sat up, pulled Grace up, and said warmly: “Dad is here.”
“father!”
Grace called him excitedly, then rolled over and got out of bed neatly, ran over and hugged Karl’s leg.
Grace is as small as a puppet on Karl’s lap, but the picture is strange and harmonious.
Karl lowered his head and saw her staring at him, so he leaned over and hugged her.
Grace put her arms around his neck and sniffed him.
Karl raised his eyebrows: “What do you smell?”
“There is no sourness.” Grace said with a puzzled face.
Karl sat down with her on the side and asked patiently, “What’s sour?”
Alyssa already knew what Grace was going to say, and hurriedly wanted to stop it.
“You will be sour when you are jealous.”
“Grace!”
But she was still a step slower than Grace.
After Grace finished speaking, she said with a look of offering treasures: “Aunt Alyssa said you are jealous.”
Alyssa: “…”
Karl gave Alyssa a meaningful look, and it was hard to guess his mood at this time.
Alyssa sorted out her clothes, sat on the edge of the bed, watching her nose, but not looking at Karl.
The next moment, she heard Karl’s low voice slowly sounding: “It’s not aunt, it’s mother.”
“mom?”
Grace pouted, pulled Karl’s tie, and retorted him in a serious tone: “Auntie is not a mother.”
Her words made Karl and Alyssa startled.
Although Grace was just over three years old, she couldn’t be treated like a kid who didn’t understand anything.
She already has her own ideas.
It takes time and appropriate methods for her to accept Alyssa’s new identity.
Don’t be too impatient.
After a brief period of depression, Alyssa calmed down.
If she really died three years ago, let’s not even ask Grace to call her mother, and she won’t even be able to see Grace’s face.
Moreover, Karl and Miana have been with Grace for the past three years. She and Grace just met soon, and they wanted Grace to change their mouths. They were too greedy.
Alyssa stood up and walked over: “What does Grace want to eat tonight? I will make it for you.”
After tossing all afternoon, it’s almost dinner time.
Karl sat on the single sofa holding Grace, Alyssa walked over and squatted on the edge of the sofa, her sight was just level with Grace.
Grace leaned against her chest, and said with a pleasant expression: “Eat meat.”
Alyssa touched her face: “Okay.”
After speaking, she couldn’t help but k!ssed her on the cheek.
After k!ssing Grace, she raised her eyes and met Karl’s dark black eyes.
His eyes were as black as ink, and the dark tide surging inside, as if he could suck people in in the next second.
Alyssa was startled.
The two of them stared at each other at a very close distance, and she even noticed that Karl’s face got closer and closer, until Karl’s breath was already close enough to spray her face…
“You want to k!ss?”
Grace’s voice pulled the two of them back.
Alyssa seemed to be awake suddenly, and she backed away suddenly.
She stood up and said hurriedly: “I will go down and see what to cook for Grace.”
After Alyssa finished speaking, she stood up and hurried out.
Grace rubbed her fingers and turned her head blankly to look at Karl.
She saw that father was not looking at her very well.
Grace shrank her neck, sat down obediently, and exclaimed, “Dad.”
“Yeah.” Karl didn’t say a word, and responded with a breath.
Grace tilted her head to the left and then to the right, as if she was finally sure that Karl was not angry, then smiled and said, “Dad and Aunt Alyssa just k!ssed…”
Karl gave Grace angrily, “No.”
Grace exaggeratedly covered her mouth with one hand, while shaking the other hand, pointing at Karl and said, “Yes!”
Karl seemed to have exhausted his patience, lifted her by the collar, and said, “Didn’t you not k!ss me?”
“Oh.” Grace followed behind him, quickly forgetting what had happened.
Karl had long legs and walked quickly on purpose.
Grace followed him, the stairs were a bit high, and she was a little scared, so she held on to the handrails and sat down on the stairs, facing downstairs.
Seeing that Karl had already walked into the hall, his face wrinkled with anger, “Kalr, hug!”
Karl looked back at her: “Own way, go by yourself.”
Where did Grace know “my own way”, she only knew that Karl let her “go on her own.”
She squeezed her mouth, turned her back to the downstairs for a while, and then faced the downstairs, walking down the stairs with her hands and feet together.
A servant came over to hug her midway, she shrank her hands and shook her head.
…
Karl went directly to the kitchen.
He has bought this villa for a year or two, mainly because he has never liked the old house, and always feels that something is wrong every time he stays in the old house.
Some time ago, he would move to live next door to Clifford, mainly because he was a little curious about Alyssa. The villa was too big, and even he and Grace moved in.
Now it comes in handy.
He stopped at the door of the kitchen and didn’t go in again.
Alyssa turned her back to him, holding two boxes of meat in her hand, as if she was identifying the type of meat, her expression was very serious.
Her long hair was neatly tied into a ponytail and tied behind her head, and her sleeves were rolled up, revealing her thin forearms.
She put down one of the boxes of meat, then stood on tiptoe to look for something in the locker, arms raised above her head, the fabric of the clothes was pulled tight, and the waist line was thin and distinct.
Inexplicably exciting.
Karl kept his eyes solemn, stretched out his hand to hold the position of his left chest, and his expression was dark.
At this time, Grace’s voice sounded behind him.
“father!”
Karl turned his head and saw Grace running over with excitement: “Dad, I came down by myself!”
When Alyssa heard the movement, she turned her head, her eyes fell on Grace, and a smile appeared in the corner of her eyes.
Chapter 398
Alyssa asked Grace: “Where did you come from?”
“Downstairs,” Grace said, pointing to the ceiling.
Just now Alyssa noticed that the stairs in the villa were high and long. After hearing Grace’s words, she turned to look at Karl.
Seeing Alyssa staring at him, Karl frowned, not knowing where he found a candy and handed it to Grace.
Then, he said quietly: “Reward.”
Grace took the candy happily, pulled it twice and found that it couldn’t be torn apart, and put it back into Karl’s hand. The little milk said sweetly, “Daddy help me open it.”
Karl tore open the sugar paper and fed the sugar to Grace.
Grace ran away contentedly with the sugar in it.
Now that Grace had discovered it, Karl walked in furiously and asked Alyssa, “You used to cook too?”
Alyssa glanced at him with a cold tone: “don’t know.”
She has lost her memory, how can she remember the past?
Karl was choked by her answer.
Alyssa thought for a while and asked him: “You really can’t remember anything?”
“Otherwise?” At the mention of this, Karl’s complexion became not very good, and there was a faintly dark atmosphere between his brows.
However, Alyssa was strangely not afraid, on the contrary, there was a feeling of “shared adversity”.
While cutting vegetables, Alyssa said, “I had an accident three years ago, and you had amnesia three years ago, so maybe we encountered the same accident?”
Clifford’s “fiance” identity is fake, and the things he told her before must also be overturned.
Karl was noncommittal: “Check it and you’ll know.”
Alyssa stopped the movement in her hand and raised her eyes to look at him.
Karl’s wealth is in great shape, even after three years, it is easy to check these things.
Clifford was right. She promised Karl’s condition, which actually had more advantages than disadvantages.
She can accompany Grace, and she can also know the past events.
Alyssa did not speak any more.
Karl knew this kind of thing, so she didn’t need to talk too much.
Karl seemed to find it interesting and stayed in the kitchen to watch her cook.
Alyssa almost ran into him when she took the plate, and said angrily, “Don’t get in the way here.”
Karl folded his arms and said, “My house, where I want to stay.”
This unreasonable tone…
Alyssa thought he was boring and didn’t bother to talk to him.
…
An hour later, Alyssa made the meal.
When he was at the table, Karl found that the three or four plates were filled with lovely and appetizing dishes.
There is no doubt that this is all for Grace.
The remaining two dishes and a soup are probably the dishes for him and Alyssa.
Karl put his chopsticks aside: “Alyssa!”
“Huh?” Alyssa replied absent-mindedly, and gave Grace some dishes with a smile: “Look if this is good or not, right?”
Karl stretched out his hand and pressed his eyebrows, his voice was filled with a thin layer of anger: “There is no food in the refrigerator, or do you think I am going bankrupt? The shabby ones can only eat these two dishes?”
Alyssa didn’t look up, and said indifferently: “If you don’t want to eat, let the servant do it without forcing you to eat.”
When Karl heard the words, his eyebrows were twisted. Before he could speak, a servant came over and whispered, “The time comes.”
Karl glanced at Alyssa, then got up and went out with a cold snort.
After he left, Alyssa raised her head and glanced in the direction where he left.
This man doesn’t seem so scary.
In the study.
Smith brought people, holding a large pile of materials, waiting for Karl to come over.
Karl came over and was taken aback when seeing so much information.
He previously ordered Smith to organize his previous events and the events with Alyssa into data for him.
But he did not expect to have so much information.
Karl stretched out his hand and tapped twice on the profile, then said, “Is all here?”
Smith respectfully said: “This is only a relatively important part. If Boss wants more detailed information, it may take more time to organize it.”
Karl turned two pages casually and said, “I see.”
After Smith left, Karl began to read the information in the study.
The above is unthinkable, it’s like looking at other people’s affairs.
Would he be so bored, pretending to be a cousin to lie to Alyssa?
Also, this Alyssa is boring enough, and still pretending to be ugly?
It’s not easy to see where to go without pretending to be ugly… Well, she’s just a little more pleasing to the eye than other women.
From this look, Karl had never been out of the study.
In the restaurant downstairs.
Grace had already eaten and went to play, and Karl did not come down, Alyssa couldn’t help being a little surprised.
Is Karl really not coming to eat?
So stingy?
Alyssa asked a servant, “Where is Karl?”
The servant respectfully said, “Sir is in the study.”
Alyssa hesitated, but decided to go upstairs to find him.
She walked to the door of the study, raised her hand and knocked on the door.
After a while, a man’s low voice came from inside: “What’s the matter?”
Alyssa said, “It’s me.”
The next moment, dull footsteps sounded in the room, and then the door was opened from inside.
Karl stood at the door, and didn’t mean to let her in. He only asked indifferently, “What’s the matter?”
Alyssa asked tentatively: “Aren’t you going to eat?”
Karl seemed to think for a few seconds, and said, “Boil a bowl of beef noodles.”
“Beef noodles?” Is this asking her to cook him noodles?
As if thinking of something, Karl added another sentence: “Spicy.”
After he finished speaking, he pointed at Alyssa with his chin, indicating that she could go down.
Alyssa subconsciously turned around to go downstairs, and then suddenly turned around: “Karl, what do you think I am? I am willing to cook for Grace. Why should I cook for you?”
“Didn’t you ask me to check the past? Do you want to see it?” Karl stepped back a little bit, and the large pile of materials in the study appeared in Alyssa’s sight.
Alyssa asked, “What are those?”
Karl curled his lips, his smile was a bit unspeakable, “You want to see it.”
Alyssa took a deep breath, turned around and went downstairs to the kitchen without saying a word to cook noodles for Karl.
It is hard to see that a person so cold as Karl still likes spicy food.
Alyssa wanted to chop a handful of millet peppers and put it in his bowl, but after thinking about it, it was all over.
She held her face, and reluctantly put it in front of Karl: “Your face.”
Karl didn’t say anything, and sat down to eat noodles.
However, he just took a bite and was startled.
It is a familiar taste.
He couldn’t help turning his head to look at Alyssa.
Alyssa was just looking through the pile of information and seeing the content of the first page, she turned her head to look at Karl: “Naive.”
