Chapter 47
Alyssa left the villa and ran a long way before stopping.
She must stay away from “Luther”, he is too dangerous.
This thought came to her. A car stopped next to her. She turned her head and looked around. Karl just lowered the car window to look at her.
The eyes of the two collided in the air, and Alyssa was taken aback for a while and quickly moved away, and the steps under her feet moved faster.
Karl drove the car slowly, following Alyssa, keeping the car parallel to her, with a commanding tone in his low voice: “Get in the car.”
“No need.” Alyssa turned her head and said, then went on.
Karl understood that Alyssa wanted to draw a clear line with him.
Alyssa walked, feeling that his car hadn’t followed, she paused slightly, and still couldn’t help but glance back.
She saw Karl getting out of the car and walking towards her, her face cold.
The other person had tall legs and walked up to her in a few steps. He didn’t say anything, but directly picked her up and threw her into the car.
Alyssa was shocked, this man is really…
She was very angry and smiled: “Luther! Don’t make trouble, okay?”
“Who is making trouble?” Karl glanced at her coldly and then continued to drive seriously.
Alyssa: “Of course you are making trouble!”
Karl didn’t hear it, and didn’t pay much attention to it at all, just asked: “Address.”
Alyssa didn’t say anything, Karl directly took out her mobile phone from her jacket pocket, and flipped through the message Rachel had sent her.
“Are you eavesdropping on my phone?” How else would he know that she was going to see Rachel?
…
Soon, they arrived at the restaurant Rachel said.
Before Alyssa got out of the car, she saw Rachel who was already waiting there through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the restaurant.
Rachel was sitting on the card seat by the window. She glanced at the time from time to time and then looked outside. There was no one else besides her.
Karl saw that Alyssa was just looking at Rachel, and did not intend to go down to see her, and asked, “You plan to sit in the car and watch her all the time?”
Alyssa glanced at him, but said nothing.
Let Rachel also taste the taste of the others.
Karl looked out the window and found that the opposite was also a restaurant, so he drove the car directly to the parking lot of the opposite restaurant, and pulled Alyssa from the car into the restaurant.
He took Alyssa directly to the second floor, and also chose a card table by the window. From here, she could see Rachel.
The waiter brought the menu to them, and Karl directly pushed the menu to Alyssa.
Alyssa looked up at Karl. Although she didn’t say anything, he seemed to know what she was thinking.
“See what? Order.”
Karl’s voice sounded, and Alyssa returned to her senses. She was obviously looking down at the phone. Could it be because of eyes that she knew she was looking at him?
It’s all here, Alyssa no longer feels awkward and just ordered the food.
Then Karl also ordered two.
Before the dishes came, Alyssa couldn’t help but turned to look at Rachel in the opposite restaurant, with a somewhat complicated expression.
Except when “Luther” threatened her, she actually said very little the rest of the time.
“This is the first time she asked me to have dinner.” As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a car stopped at the entrance of the restaurant, and Isabel’s figure came out of it.
She sneered, and then said, “I knew she couldn’t just invite me to dinner.”
Isabel went directly to the card table where Rachel was at. Due to the distance, she could not hear what the two were talking about, but based on their actions, she could tell that Isabel was losing her temper and Rachel was comforting her.
After the two argued for a while, Rachel lowered her head and picked up the phone. After a while, Alyssa’s phone rang.
She answered the phone: “Hello?”
“Alyssa, why haven’t you come yet? Didn’t you say it’s good to have lunch together?” Rachel’s voice was suppressed with anger, as if he was already a little impatient.
Alyssa said lightly: “I’m still on the bus, the road is a bit blocked.”
Rachel’s tone was obviously relieved: “Then you hurry up.”
After hanging up the phone, Alyssa saw Rachel talking to Isabel again, and then Isabel turned and left the card table, but did not leave the restaurant.
When something like that happened last night, Isabel couldn’t wait to let Rachel ask her out.
If this is the case, should she really show up to hit Isabel?
At this time, the waiter began to serve food, and Karl’s voice pulled her thoughts back: “Eat.”
Alyssa regained consciousness, suddenly remembering that he was still calling “Mom” last time when he was so ill, and asked “Luther” curiously: “You have been living in Karl’s house, where are your parents?”
When the voice fell, she clearly saw the action of “Luther” picking up vegetables stopped, and his expression was not quite right.
Alyssa felt that she had asked him something that shouldn’t be asked, so she quickly picked up some dishes for him, which was quite flattering: “You eat more.”
The two finished the meal in silence.
When paying the bill, Alyssa wanted to buy it in front of him, but Karl pulled her behind with one hand. After buying the bill, she turned her head back and said: “It is only natural for a man to pay for a meal with a woman.”
Alyssa looked serious: “The elder sister-in-law is like a mother, and it is only natural for the sister-in-law to pay.”
“I have already paid if you really feel bad about it…” Karl leaned closer to her and whispered, “Just k!ss me.”
“…” it’s better to let her die.
Alyssa shook her hand and left the restaurant.
Karl looked at her back with a deep smile.
…
In the end, Alyssa didn’t go to the other restaurant to see Rachel, she and “Luther” went home directly.
Rachel kept calling her, but she never answered.
She thought it was over, but early the next morning, she received a call from Colin.
“Alyssa, are you looking for a job recently? How nice it would be that you simply come to our own company!” Colin said sincerely, and Alyssa was almost convinced.
Alyssa replied casually: “But I have already found a job.”
Between Hunt’s family and AdamPic, she would naturally choose AdamPic without hesitation, without even considering.
Colin was silent for a moment, as if he had made up his mind: “If you come to work in the company, how about I give you shares?”
Shares?
Alyssa couldn’t help but straightened up, somewhat suspecting that she had heard it wrong.
Isabel and her brother both hold shares in the Hunt family and get dividends every year. Even Rachel has some shares. Although it is pitifully small, but they do.
Chapter 48
In the entire Hunt’s family, only Alyssa was excluded and no shares were allocated.
She once hoped that Colin could give her her share of shares, even if it was only 1%, at least she could feel that she was part of the Hunt’s family.
But now, she didn’t care about that share, and Colin wanted to give it to her instead.
Thinking about it, she still feels a little ridiculous.
Alyssa really laughed. Although she knew that Colin might have another purpose, she still asked, “How many shares does my dad plan to give me?”
Colin said vaguely: “It must be more than your mother. Don’t worry, Dad will not treat you badly.”
More than Rachel? That is very little.
Since Colin was here, how could Alyssa not kill him?
“Anyway, I am also the young lady of the Adams’ family now. If you really want to give me shares, just give me 15%. If you say too little, you will be laughed at.”
Although she does not have Hunt’s shares in her hand, she is very clear about the distribution of shares.
Colin holds 30% of the shares, Isabel and her brother hold 10%, and Rachel holds 5%. This adds up to 55%.
The rest are other shareholders.
If Colin allocated 15% of the shares to Alyssa, it would become very dangerous.
When the next shareholder meeting elects the chairman, if Alyssa does not vote for him, he will most likely not be the chairman.
15% of the shares are not a small amount.
Naturally, Colin knew the stakes in this very well, and he stubbornly angered and said, “Alyssa, your father is not thin to you, your request is a bit excessive.”
Not thin to her?
Alyssa smiled and said, “Dad, when you’re old, don’t always be angry and irritated. It’s bad for your health. I’m just talking casually. It’s okay if you don’t agree. I can get a job anyway. I still have problems. Goodbye.”
What happened to the Hunt’s family?
Colin used shares to entice her and wanted her to go to work in the Hunt’s family. What did she do?
…
the other side.
Colin was hung up by Alyssa, and almost threw the phone with anger.
He put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the office: “I think her wings are stiff!”
Isabel poured a cup of tea for Colin: “Dad, don’t be angry about such small things, it’s not worth it.”
Colin was getting angry, and did not take the tea that Isabel handed over. He hated iron and steel and pointed to her and said, “How many times have I told you, it’s okay. Don’t go to those smoky places to play, even if you want to. I’ll be more careful! Now, the Weber family has already agreed to the marriage. If something like this happens, will the Weber family still want you!”
The Adams’ family has been short of capital chain recently, and originally planned to marry the Weber family and let the Weber family invest money for them, but after the Isabel incident, he doesn’t expect the Weber family to invest money.
Therefore, he cast his gaze on Alyssa’s body.
Alyssa has been married to Adams’ house for two or three months, and it’s okay. She must get along well with Karl. Now if he pleases Alyssa, she may still be able to convince Karl to vouch for them with money.
“Dad, Alyssa must have done it. She wanted to ruin me.” After Isabel finished speaking, she said with a mysterious expression: “But I have already reported it back.”
When Colin heard her say revenge, his expression changed, and he said, “What did you do?”
“She ruined me, and I naturally wouldn’t let her feel better. I want to ruin her. I led her to the ZVR Club…” Isabel said happily. Before she finished speaking, Colin slapped her face. Hit her in the face.
Snapped!
A crisp and loud slap.
Isabel turned her head to one side when she was beaten. After a while, she looked back at Colin with a look of disbelief: “Dad! Are you hitting me?”
Since childhood, Colin has been angry with her only a few times, let alone beat her.
Colin was very angry just now. After all, this time the Adams’ family was facing bankruptcy or being acquired. At this point, Isabel even went to offend Alyssa.
Colin loves his dead ex-wife very much, and he also loves the two children left by her, especially Isabel, because she looks a lot like her mother.
Colin looked at her hand, sighed deeply, and involuntarily calmed down: “Isabel, anyway, Alyssa is now Adams’ daughter-in-law. You have to look at the owner when you hit the dog. Don’t rush to deal with her for a while. She has been married to that house for so long and is alive and well. Maybe she will get Karl’s favor in the future?”
Isabel retorted unwillingly: “Even if Karl’s favor, he is a waste!”
She didn’t agree with Colin’s words at all in her heart, even if Isabel married into the Adams’ family, she was not a poor creature whose biological mother didn’t love her!
But she knew that Colin was still angry, and she couldn’t say that Alyssa was bad.
“Even if Karl is a waste person, he is also the young Sir of the Adams’ family. He will inherit the Adams’ family in the future, and we are short of capital chain now. If Alyssa can help us find Karl for a fund, then our problem is solved!”
Isabel was moved by Colin. She felt that his words made sense: “Then let her ask Karl for funds!”
Colin thought of the phone call just now, and his face sank, and said, “I think she has hardened wings now, and she dared to hang up my phone just now, so she dared to ask me for 15% of the shares!”
“Then give it to her!” Isabel was displeased: “Aren’t you going to let her come to work in Hunt’s family? Then we can just find an opportunity to let her return the shares again.”
Hearing what she said, Colin fell into deep thought, and then smiled: “It’s still my baby girl who is smart, but it’s not your father just now…”
“Dad, I’m fine.”
…
No matter what Alyssa thought, it was impossible to think that Colin’s purpose was to make her ask Karl to invest money in Hunt’s family.
What she has to do today is to go to AdamPic for an interview.
Before going out, she received a call from Colin again.
“Alyssa, I considered your previous request, and I promised to give you 15% of family’s shares. When will you come to to work?”
Alyssa frowned and was puzzled, and Colin promised to give her 15% of the shares.
It was weird enough that Colin wanted her to go to work in the family business, but she did not expect that he would actually give her shares.
Want it or not? Go or not?
15% of the shares are more than Isabel has. How could she agree?
There must be something tricky in it, but she is not afraid.
“When will you transfer the shares to me, I will come to work then.”
