Chapter 621
However, before the servant had gone far, he heard Karl’s voice: “Wait!”
The servant hurriedly stopped and turned to look at Karl, “Sir, do you have any more orders?”
Karl pondered for a moment, then asked in a deep voice, “Has she eaten yet?”
The servant was stunned for a moment, and it turned out that Karl asked about Alyssa, nodding slightly, and said, “Madam has been waiting for you to come back. She hasn’t eaten dinner yet.”
When Karl heard the words, his expression was slightly stagnant, and then he told the servant: “Send it to her room.”
“Yes.” The servant replied, and was about to get some food for Alyssa.
The servant packed the food, and heard Karl add another sentence: “Don’t say I asked you to serve it.”
“……Yes.”
The servant took the food upstairs and freed a hand to knock on the door.
When Alyssa heard the knock on the door outside, her first reaction was to think of Karl.
But after another thought, with Karl’s temper, how could he take the initiative to come to her?
Even if Karl came to see her, he couldn’t knock on the door.
Alyssa didn’t move, and only said aloud: “Come in.”
The servant came in with the food and opened the door. Alyssa only glanced at it, then looked down at the phone again.
The servant put the food on the table and turned to Alyssa and said, “Madam, you didn’t eat tonight. I brought you some up. You can eat as much as you want.”
“I see, you can put it there.” Alyssa said without looking up.
After the servant put down the food, he turned and went out.
As soon as the servant went out, Alyssa put down her phone and glanced at the food on the table.
No appetite at all.
Thinking of Karl’s saying, “The stupidest thing I have ever done is to indulge you too much”, Alyssa got a headache with anger.
She threw the phone aside, got up and went to the bathroom to wash.
…
When Karl returned to the room, Alyssa was already lying down.
The room was dark, Karl felt a small lamp turned on based on his memory, and went to the bathroom lightly.
However, when he came out, he saw Alyssa sitting up and leaning against the window, looking at him faintly.
The two looked at each other in the dim light for a few seconds, and Karl looked away and lay on the other side of the bed.
“When will you take me to see Grace, or if you tell me where she is, I can go by myself.” Alyssa maintained her previous posture without even blinking her eyes.
“Not now.” Karl replied.
“Why not now? I want to see my own daughter, so I have to choose a good day?” Alyssa finally turned to look at Karl, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
Karl’s voice was low, with a hint of forbearance anger: “Alyssa.”
Alyssa was not afraid to offend him, and said bluntly: “Whatever you say, but I want to see Grace.”
Karl lay down directly, and went to sleep with his eyes closed.
Alyssa looked angry, but was helpless against him.
She lay down angrily with her back to Karl.
The two slept like this all night.
…
The next day.
When Alyssa woke up, Karl also just got up.
The bathroom door is not closed, and the bed is just right where you can see the sink in the bathroom not far from the door.
Karl stood in front of the mirror, adjusting his tie, but he didn’t know why, he couldn’t tie it all at this time.
Alyssa stared at him for a long time, and saw that he was repeating the action of tying and untiing his tie tirelessly, and finally couldn’t stand it anymore, so she got up and walked over to him.
Seeing her coming, Karl turned his head and glanced at her, then continued to tie his tie.
Alyssa picked up the toothbrush, planning to leave him alone.
But her mind had already made a decision one step ahead of her, and the toothbrush she had just picked up was put back. She raised her head, reached out and waved Karl’s hand away, and took over the job of tying his tie.
Karl did not refuse, but just looked down at her.
The air was strangely quiet.
In such small and delicate matters, women are more comfortable than men.
Alyssa pinched the tie with her slender fingers, tied the knot flexibly, and went back to get her toothbrush.
When she brushed her teeth, she felt Karl was still looking at her.
She simply lowered her head. She was wearing slippers and was a lot shorter than Karl. She deliberately lowered her head so that Karl could not see her face.
Until Alyssa brushed her teeth, she turned to look at him: “Are you OK? Go out when you are done, don’t take up space here and get in the way.”
When Karl heard the words, he was stuck in his throat, unable to get up or down.
This woman is really…
Karl gave a cold snort, turned and walked out.
It’s just that his footsteps are deliberately put a little heavy, full of anger.
Alyssa snorted lightly: “boring!”
When she finished washing and went downstairs, Karl was about to go out after breakfast.
As usual, Smith drove to pick up Karl to the company, and was waiting for Karl in the lobby.
When he saw Alyssa he nodded slightly at her: “Madam.”
Alyssa’s eyes flashed, thinking of something, and said with a smile: “Mr. Smith is so early, have you had breakfast?”
Smith did not notice Alyssa’s abnormality, and said with a smile, “I have eaten.”
“That’s good.” After Alyssa said, she didn’t talk to Karl, and went directly to the restaurant.
Smith keenly noticed something, he looked at Alyssa, then looked back at Karl who had already walked towards him.
Understandably, this is another quarrel?
don’t know what the quarrel was about this time.
Smith is also wise not to ask much.
Alyssa sat alone at the dining table, seemingly eating breakfast, but was always paying attention to the movement outside.
After a while, she heard the sound of a car ringing outside before putting down her knife and fork.
If Karl doesn’t take her to find Grace, can’t she go by herself?
If Karl doesn’t tell her where Grace is, can’t she think of a solution by herself?
…
In the afternoon, Smith went out to work.
As soon as he walked to the parking lot, he heard the sound of high heels behind.
“Sound” is very crisp, getting closer.
When Smith turned around, he saw Alyssa who smiled gently at him.
“Madam?” Smith froze for a while before asking: “Are you here to find Sir? He is in the office now, so you can go directly to him.”
Alyssa embraced her arms and walked to Smith: “I’m here to find you.”
Smith’s mind turned abnormally fast, and he understood in an instant, what Alyssa was looking for, he hurriedly said: “I have something to do. Madam, if you have something to do, please call me again.”
As he said, he was about to drive away.
However, Alyssa has been waiting in the parking lot for most of the day, how could Smith leave like this?
Alyssa slowly said, “Stop!”
Her tone was light and shallow, but Smith felt a kind of self-arrogance similar to Karl.
Chapter 622
Smith stopped helplessly and looked back at Alyssa.
Alyssa didn’t talk nonsense, and asked directly: “Let’s talk, where is Grace.”
Smith shook his head: “I don’t know.”
Alyssa twitched her lips: “If you really want to count, the time you spend with Karl is much longer than the time I spent with Karl. He trusts you the most and everything will let you Do it, now you tell me you don’t know?”
Karl believed Smith, almost everything would go through Smith’s hands.
Alyssa is sure that he must know where Grace is.
Even if Smith did not deal with this matter, Smith must know the inside story.
Smith looked startled, and sighed slightly: “But I really didn’t do this thing, it was all done by Boss himself.”
“Karl did it by himself?” This surprised Alyssa.
But after thinking about it, she thinks it makes sense.
Karl’s attitude towards Grace has changed, and it is understandable to arrange for Grace personally.
“Yes.” Smith squeezed a sweat silently, so he can always leave, right?
Of course Alyssa couldn’t just let him go.
She tilted her head slightly and said slowly, “Even if he does it himself, you can’t know anything!”
He stopped talking.
Alyssa understood now, she was right.
In the end, Smith was too helpless by Alyssa, so he told her an address.
This address is a small town several hundred kilometers away from Rostenvel.
The town is famous for planting flowers. Alyssa visited once when she was in school. It is a beautiful town.
She didn’t expect that Karl would arrange Grace to that small town.
She originally thought it might be a city several thousand kilometers away from Rostenvel. Unexpectedly, it was just a small town a few hundred kilometers away from here.
Even if Clifford knew that Grace was still alive by then, I am afraid that Karl would put Grace directly under his eyelids.
…
Alyssa went to the bus station and took the bus to the town.
The town is colder than the city.
Alyssa looked for the house number in the cold wind, and when she found it, her nose was red with cold.
It is an unobtrusive old villa. A little farther away, you can see the weeds growing in the flower beds in the yard through the courtyard wall.
After Alyssa approached, she found that the courtyard wall was still a little high and could not see what was inside.
She stood in front of the door and knocked on the door.
After knocking twice, Alyssa stood outside the courtyard door and waited.
It took a long time before someone came to open the door.
Accompanied by the “cang-dang” door opening, the man’s rough voice also rang: “Who?”
The door was opened, and a tall man wearing a thick black down jacket walked out.
The man has a beard and looks very rough.
He stared at Alyssa up and down for a moment, his eyes widened, although a bit impolite, there was no other meaning in his eyes.
After looking at it, he frowned and asked her impatiently: “Who are you?”
“I’m looking for someone.” Alyssa didn’t know who he was, and even concealed what he said: “Is there a person named Adams who lives here?”
She was talking about a person with the surname “Adams”, but in a man’s ears, she might not know which “Adams” it was.
The man’s gaze fell on her face, and then he said, “There is no one with such a name”
After speaking, he closed the door.
With a “bang”, the heavy iron door was closed in front of Alyssa’s eyes.
Alyssa took two steps back dangerously, otherwise she might be hit by the door.
She heard the footsteps inside. Did that man really leave?
Alyssa had been in the car for several hours, but she didn’t expect it to be like this.
She thought that if it was the person arranged by Karl, at least he should also know her.
Did Smith give her the wrong address?
Or is it that Karl cheated all the time to ensure that the confidentiality work is in place?
Alyssa thought about it, but couldn’t think of a reason.
Since she is here, she must see Grace.
Alyssa stood at the door for a while, and suddenly heard a familiar but somewhat unfamiliar voice behind her: “Alyssa?”
Hearing this, Alyssa turned around abruptly, and saw an unexpected person.
“Claire?” Alyssa looked at Claire who was wearing a long black coat in disbelief.
When Karl and Claire broke apart, didn’t Claire have already left for another country?
At this time, how could she appear here.
“Why are you here?” Claire walked to Alyssa, her eyes full of scrutiny.
She was looking at Alyssa, and Alyssa was also looking at her naturally.
Claire was wearing a thick scarf, her coat extended to ankles, and a pair of snow boots that looked very warm and bloated.
This suit is even simpler than Alyssa, but still has an outstanding temperament.
The two women looked at each other for a while, and Alyssa asked, “Then why are you here?”
Claire didn’t say much, walked to the door and knocked on the door, before turning around and saying to Alyssa, “Come in with me.”
There was no response inside for a long time, and Claire raised her foot and kicked on the iron gate, her tone a bit domineering: “You roll over and open the door!”
“…”
Alyssa looked at Claire in astonishment.
The Claire in her memory is an elegant woman who always carries the identity of Miss Alyssa.
Claire is a woman with pride in her bones, with a natural aristocracy.
It is difficult for Alyssa to associate Claire in front of her with the Miss Alyssa in her memory.
Soon, the iron door was opened from the inside again.
The same bearded man just now.
He opened the door and saw Claire, holding the iron gate blankly, letting Claire enter.
“Let’s go.” After Claire said to Alyssa, she lifted her foot in.
When Alyssa passed by the bearded man, she glanced at him again.
The previous time when he opened the door, Alyssa didn’t look very carefully, but with this look, she could clearly see the sharp beard eyes.
Reminiscent of Claire kicking the door just now, Alyssa faintly felt that the relationship between this bearded man and Claire did not seem to be very simple.
There is heating in the room, which is much warmer than outside.
“Sit down.” Claire walked in and took her scarf and coat.
Alyssa sat down on the sofa and looked up and saw that beard also came in.
Claire looked at the bearded man, “Go and pour tea.”
She looked natural when she said this, as if she often ordered the bearded man to do this kind of thing.
The bearded man didn’t say much, and turned around to pour tea for them both with the teapot.
A man who seems to be so rough, when he starts to pour tea, he is very careful.
