Chapter 405
Karl said last night that someone would come to see them off when they went out.
Alyssa only thought it would be the driver’s bodyguard or something, she did not expect that Karl would send Smith to see them off.
Smith saw her holding Grace out, and smiled and shouted, “Miss Alyssa.”
Then he turned his head to look at Grace, and shouted with a smile, “Grace.”
Grace still remembered Smith, when she called out sweetly: “Uncle Smith.”
Alyssa didn’t expect it to be Smith, so she asked directly: “Mr. Smith, how could it be you?”
“Maybe it’s because Boss trusts me more.” Smith showed a very shallow smile, looking very calm.
Alyssa thought about it, after all, she was going out with Grace, and of course Karl would send them a relieved person.
Thinking about it this way, it makes sense.
Alyssa nodded slightly: “Then I will trouble you.”
Smith narrowed his eyebrows and smiled and opened the door respectfully.
Alyssa hugged Grace and got into the car.
…
The place where Tina and Alyssa met was still in Best Day.
Under consideration, it is safer to meet at Best Day.
Smith sent them to Best Day and left, and returned to office to find Karl.
Because Karl had clarified Grace’s life, Claire had come to see Karl not less these days.
When hg pushed open the door of the CEO’s office, he heard Claire’s sharp voice: “What’s wrong with me signing this contract? Don’t think that only you have the decision-making power. Adams’ half is mine!”
Then, Smith heard the voice of Karl calling the inside line to speak to the secretary: “Come in and invite Vice CEO out.”
“Karl, don’t go too far!”
Claire was so angry that she threw the file in her hand to the ground, and she went out angrily before Karl’s secretary came in to drive her out.
Smith retreated to the door, lowered his head slightly, and let Claire go out first.
Claire noticed Smith when he was standing by the door, and sneered, then snorted: “Stray!”
Then she hurried away.
He closed the door without changing her face and strode to Karl’s desk: “Sir.”
Karl was not affected by Claire, but still focused on the documents in front of him.
Hearing Smith’s voice, he did not look up either, but asked aloud: “Sent them over?”
“Yes.” Smith said with his head down slightly.
At this time, Karl raised his head and asked him, “Is there any news about the brain specialist I asked you to contact before?”
When Smith heard the words, his face was stunned: “If there is news, he will have time tonight. It has already been arranged. You can go directly at that time.”
“Ok.”
Karl responded and stopped talking.
But Smith hasn’t gone out yet.
At this time in the past, he had finished talking to Smith and went out consciously long ago.
Karl raised his eyes to look at him, “Is there anything else?”
Smith hesitated for a while, but still asked the doubts in his heart: “Sir, have you…recovered your memory?”
He didn’t doubt it for nothing.
Mainly because Karl asked him to pick up Alyssa and Grace’s behavior, which was too abnormal.
It was so abnormal that he had to make such a guess.
Karl squinted his eyes slightly, a gloomy look appeared in his eyes, and soon disappeared: “I remember some, but it’s very fragmentary.”
Fragmentary and incomplete memories are difficult to piece together.
A look of surprise appeared on Smith’s face.
On the contrary, Karl’s expression became more gloomy.
He stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and then slowly said, “Alyssa has a physiological amnesia. She slept for three years. Although her body is healed, her amnesia can be reasonably explained. I looked for it before. After a detailed examination by the doctor, my injury was not that serious.”
The subtext is that he has lost his memory and human factors cannot be ruled out.
Smith naturally heard the deep meaning of Karl’s words.
Before the showdown between Karl and Claire, Karl had made Smith Alyssa’s three years of investigations clear, so Karl was also very clear about Alyssa’s condition.
Karl was cautious, he checked everyone connected with the incident before finding Claire for a showdown.
However, he needed to be more careful.
…
As soon as Alyssa took Grace into the Best Day, Peter walked towards the two of them.
“Alyssa!”
Although Peter was calling Alyssa’s name, his gaze couldn’t help looking at Grace.
Alyssa noticed his eyes, and pulled Grace behind her: “Mr. Grant.”
“Hehe.” Peter saw her little movement and smiled awkwardly: “Tina is waiting for you in the box.”
After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Grace, with a smile that he thought was very gentle: “This is Grace, I’m Uncle Grant!”
Grace opened her head from behind Alyssa, and said in a low voice, “Yes.”
Peter’s face turned into a flower with a smile. He didn’t know where he took out a rainbow lollipop and handed it to Grace. His voice became softer: “Eat candy?”
If it weren’t for Alyssa and knew that Peter was not short of money, she would have thought that Peter was a bad uncle who abducted children.
When Grace saw the rainbow lollipop, her big eyes went straight.
There is no baby who doesn’t like sugar.
Grace’s little hand lifted up, then retracted again.
She raised her head to look at Alyssa, and yelled softly, “Mom.”
Grace is using her method to seek Alyssa’s advice.
Alyssa pursed her lips and hugged her up: “Grace can take the candy that Uncle Grant gave, but have to say thank you.”
Grace took a look at Peter, stretched out a small hand and quickly took the sugar over, and said happily, “Thank you, Uncle Grant.”
Peter’s emotions were all written on his face.
“Grace, uncle here not only has sugar, there are also so many delicious fries, all kinds of candies…”
Peter said a lot later, but Grace only remembered French fries and sugar.
She lowered her head and glanced at the rainbow lollipop in her hand, leaning contentedly in Alyssa’s arms, obviously lacking interest in what Peter said.
Peter looked a little injured.
Alyssa said in time: “Let’s go to Tina first, Grace is still young, and there are so many things she can’t eat.”
Peter nodded and took them directly to the box where Tina was.
When Tina saw Alyssa and Grace coming in, she ran over with bright eyes: “Grace hugs Auntie.”
Grace hesitated for a moment, and stretched out her hand towards Tina.
Tina hugged Grace with surprise on her face: “Grace asked me to hold her and didn’t recognize the baby? So cute…”
Tina couldn’t help but k!ssed her face several times.
Peter on the side saw this, took a deep breath and silently turned his head.
Chapter 406
Alyssa vaguely understood that Grace was actually a face-seeing kid.
Children will always be closer to women.
Tina enters the entertainment circle, looks naturally good, and Grace easily has a good impression of her.
Tina sat down with Grace in her arms, turned her head to look at Peter, and said with a smile, “Mr Grant, are you free?”
Peter pretended that he didn’t understand the deep meaning of Tina’s words: “I am very busy, but today Ms. Grace is here, so I have to take a break.”
Want to drive him away? nonexistent.
Alyssa looked at Tina and then at Peter, smiled and said nothing.
She turned her head and saw Grace looking at her nervously.
Alyssa called out: “Grace?”
The expression on Grace’s face became more tense, she twisted around Tina, as if she wanted to come down.
Wasn’t she okay just now?
Tina also noticed that Grace wanted to go down, so he let go and put her on the ground.
As soon as Grace landed on her feet, she ran up to Alyssa and plunged into her arms.
Alyssa felt a little funny.
She hugged Grace, pressed her smile, and asked her in a low voice, “What’s the matter?”
Grace took a very cautious look at Tina, quickly turned around and hugged Alyssa’s neck, and whispered, “Auntie blame.”
“Who?” Alyssa was taken aback, and asked her: “Is the aunt who hugged you just now?”
Grace twisted her fingers and nodded nervously.
Alyssa opened her mouth, not knowing why.
Tina held her face and looked at Grace excitedly, and asked Alyssa, “What did she say?”
Alyssa blinked and shook her head with a smile.
Immediately, she lowered her head and asked Grace in a low voice, “Why do you say that Aunt Tina is a strange aunt? Don’t you think she is very beautiful?”
Grace glanced at Tina, then met Tina’s smiling eyes.
She leaned in Alyssa’s arms again, and the little milk said softly, “Pretty.”
“Then why is she blamed auntie? She likes you very much, did you know?” Alyssa touched her hair, temptingly.
“Dad said… blame Auntie.” The words in the middle of Grace were too quiet, Alyssa could not hear clearly, but it did not prevent her from understanding the meaning of Grace’s whole sentence.
Alyssa couldn’t laugh or cry after hearing this.
She raised her head and asked Tina, “Have you met Karl before?”
“Yes, last time he took Ms. Grace to dinner in Best Day, I happened to see him.” Tina said, blinking at Grace: “Ms. Grace is also here, and you are also greeting me.”
After listening to Tina’s words, Alyssa couldn’t help reaching out and supporting her head.
This Karl is really…
Alyssa lowered her head, and said to Grace in a warm voice: “Aunt Weber is not a strange aunt, she knows your mother, she is a friend of your mother, a good aunt, she likes you very much.”
Grace stared at Alyssa with her big eyes open, as if she didn’t understand.
Alyssa held her little hand and asked her: “Aunt likes me so much, do you want me to praise her?”
Grace blinked, turned her head to look at Tina, and said, “You are so beautiful.”
“what–“
Tina exclaimed and asked Alyssa: “What did you teach her to say?”
Alyssa stretched out her hands and shook her head to indicate that it was not what she taught Grace to say.
Tina smiled mysteriously at Grace: “Grace is so good, Auntie has prepared gifts for you.”
Hearing the word “gift”, Grace’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Tina stretched out her hand towards Grace: “You come here first, and Auntie will only show it to you.”
Grace looked at Alyssa expectantly.
Alyssa put her on the ground: “Go.”
Grace happily ran towards Tina, and Tina pretended to be mysterious, pulling Grace secretly and giving her gifts.
“Grace, you stand here, don’t let mom see it.”
“Ok.”
Grace cooperated very well with Tina, looked back at where Alyssa was, and stretched out her small hand, intending to block Alyssa’s sight.
However, Alyssa still saw the gift Tina bought to Grace.
It is a doll that most little girls will like, and a beautiful wishing bottle with gorgeous colors.
Not a lot of special gifts, but Grace smiled so that her eyes were bent, and she obviously liked it very much.
“This will change color when you turn it, like this…”
“so beautiful!”
Karl was so busy, he probably didn’t have time to play with Grace.
She vaguely understood the reason why Karl would let her live with them.
Grace took the wishing bottle over with joy and showed Alyssa: “Mom, look!”
“So beautiful? Do we want to thank Aunt?” Alyssa nodded in cooperation.
“Thank you.” Grace ran to Tina, thanked her sweetly, and leaned in to k!ss her again.
Tina slumped on the chair, pretending to be weak, and said, “Suddenly my head hurts, so I need Grace to k!ss me.”
Grace looked ignorant, and she leaned in and k!ssed her again.
Peter on the side looked very jealous.
He cleared his throat and said, “Order something.”
As he said, he handed the menu to Grace: “Grace can order whatever she eats.”
Grace glanced at him and pushed the menu to Alyssa.
With a smile, Alyssa helped her order a cup of juice and French fries, and ordered for herself a cup of coffee, and then pushed the menu to Tina.
Maybe because Peter was also in the box, the things they ordered came up quickly, almost without waiting.
Grace sat in the children’s dining room, eating fries intently.
Alyssa briefly talked about recent events with Tina.
After hearing this, Peter asked Alyssa gossipingly: “Karl and his sister really fell out?”
“Forget it, I’m not very clear.” It seemed that Karl and Claire had fallen out on that day, but after all they were brothers and sisters. It is difficult to say whether they will reconcile in the future.
Peter beamed his brows after hearing her words: “Wait, if Karl recovers his memory, Claire will feel better.”
Alyssa was taken aback for a moment when he said this sentence without beginning and end, and asked, “How to say?”
Tina kicked Peter under the dining table: “You should go now, you are so busy…”
Although Peter was reluctant, he got up and went out.
As soon as he left, Tina moved to her side, and asked her: “What is the big boss doing to you now?”
“Not very bad.” Alyssa thought for a while: “It’s pretty good to be able to live in peace.”
Tina nodded and asked: “You hate him?”
“If you can’t say it, it feels like you are not all the way.”
Alyssa pursed her lips, a hint of curiosity flashed across her face. She glanced at Grace and asked Tina in a low voice, “How was my relationship with Karl before?”
“Of course your relationship was very good and affectionate, otherwise how could there be such a cute little Grace.” Tina said, she couldn’t help but hold her chin and look at Grace and exclaimed, “It’s so cute.”
