Chapter 975
Karl felt the look in Grace’s eyes when she looked at him, full of sympathy and affection.
He returned her chicken wings with a black face.
Grace looked puzzled: “It’s delicious, don’t you really eat it?”
Karl said coldly, “I don’t eat.”
Grace picked up the chicken wings and looked at it seriously. It was the same as before.
She tasted it again, and it was still as good as before.
Why is she so disgusted by your father?
Grace took two bites and handed it to Karl: “Dad, you can try it, it’s really delicious.”
Karl’s face got even worse.
Give it back to him.
However, looking at Grace’s clear eyes, Karl could not say anything to refuse.
He lowered his head blankly and took a bite.
Grace was very happy, her eyes lit up, tilted her head and asked Karl, “Is it delicious?”
Karl was about to speak when he felt that someone was watching him.
He turned his head and took a look, and found that Luther and Alyssa were both looking at him together, not knowing how long they watched.
The expression on Karl’s face was stiff for a moment.
Immediately, he turned his head as if he was okay, and slowly swallowed the food in his mouth.
Grace who didn’t get the answer was still chasing after him: “Dad, is it delicious?”
She thought the chicken wings were delicious, and wanted to find a sense of identity in Karl.
“Yes.”
Karl nodded, “It’s okay.”
Hearing his answer, Grace happily stuffed the unfinished chicken wings into his mouth.
Luther whispered to Alyssa, “I never dreamed of seeing him like this before.”
Luther was referring to Karl who was so approachable and like an ordinary father.
Alyssa just smiled and did not speak.
Karl lost his mother when he was young and went through cruel things.
Because of his unfortunate experience, and because of his introverted temperament, others think that Karl is a weird person.
When she first met Karl, Alyssa felt that Karl had a strange temperament and it was difficult to figure out.
But after the two were together for so long, she gradually understood that his requirements for life were actually very simple.
He is undoubtedly confident and intelligent.
Dare to be the risk taker.
Also arrogant.
But such a wanton Karl was once again constrained by Clifford because of her.
Alyssa really felt tired.
The bad things are endless.
Luther felt that Alyssa’s mood seemed a little wrong, and whispered to her: “Sister Alyssa, what’s wrong with you?”
“Think of some of my past.”
Alyssa smiled and changed the subject calmly.
Luther laughed along with her: “That’s definitely not a good thing…” Alyssa: “You are actually very good.”
Luther snorted: “I am a man now, and a man can’t be described as a good man!”
Alyssa laughed: “Well, let’s eat, or it will be cold later.”
…
Although Karl and Alyssa were separated by Grace, he was still paying attention to Alyssa.
Recently, he has been closely following Alyssa’s situation.
How much she eats at each meal, when will she go to bed, when will she wake up… and many other trivial matters are within Karl’s observation range.
Alyssa really ate a little more today than before.
He called Luther back, which was also a good decision.
At the end of the meal, Peter came as scheduled.
He already drank at the previous dinner, his tie was loosened, and his hair was messed up by himself.
Chapter 976
Peter sat down on the chair beside Karl grinningly.
He felt weak, and when he sat down he made a lot of noise.
A full body of alcohol.
Karl frowned and turned his head to look at him: “How much did you drink?”
“Half a bottle…” Peter’s expression was a bit dumb, staring at Karl for a long time before these words popped out.
Then he tongue-out and said: “Not too much.”
Peter kept his tongue out, and turned his head to make faces with Grace.
Grace curled her lips and said with a bit of disgust: “Uncle Grant, you are so naive.”
Peter smiled “hehe”, the whole person looked a little silly.
Karl’s eyebrows were tightened, and he looked at Luther: “Go to the waiter and ask them to cook a bowl of sober soup and bring it over.”
“No, no…” Peter immediately interrupted when he heard the words, propped up and sat up: “No!”
He leaned to Karl’s ear and whispered, “I’ll be here when Tina is down.”
Karl: “…” Although Peter was whispering to Karl, he was already drunk and forgot to lower the volume. Everyone in the box heard him talking.
Grace’s eyes lit up after hearing this: “Aunt Tina is coming?”
“Shhh.”
Peter put his index finger between his lips and made a silent motion.
Grace turned her head to look at Alyssa inexplicably, her small face was full of big questions.
Why is Uncle Grant so weird?
Alyssa just smiled and said to Grace: “This is Uncle Grant’s secret.”
“Secret…” Okay, don’t ask.
… Karl doesn’t care what Peter said.
He still asked the waiter to come over and let them cook sober soup for Peter.
“I don’t want it! I don’t want to drink!”
Peter splashed on the chair like a child.
Karl couldn’t stand it anymore, and kicked him when he raised his foot: “Be quiet.”
Peter “hissed” and hugged his feet with his head down.
Alyssa glared at Karl: “Why are you kicking him?”
“Making him sober.”
Karl glanced at Peter coldly: “It’s useless to pretend to be drunk, it’s better to drink another bottle.”
Peter became stiff and raised his head with a light cough.
He smiled: “Karl, don’t demolish my station like this, really…” Peter sighed, looking helpless.
“Aren’t you drunk?”
Alyssa looked at Peter in surprise.
Karl explained in a low voice, “Drinking has been practiced since childhood, and it’s not that easy to get drunk.”
Alyssa was a little speechless: “What do you want to do?”
“I don’t want to do anything, just…” Peter scratched his head and said embarrassingly: “She has ignored me for several days.”
The scene was a little weirdly silent for a while.
Everyone turned their attention to Peter.
“What do you think of me like that, I just…” Peter suddenly lowered the volume when he said, “…see there is no way.”
Alyssa leaned back lightly, not knowing what to say.
The two people go around, but they are not together.
Luther looked at the show and said in surprise, “You haven’t chased Sister Tina yet?”
Peter was choked, and then said coldly: “Shut up, brat.”
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.
Peter immediately leaned back on the back of the chair, with both arms drooping weakly, pretending to be drunk, and turned to them and said, “She’s here, don’t do anything bad.”
After speaking, Peter closed his eyes and pretended to be sleeping.
The next moment, the door was pushed open.
The people who came in were not somber.
