Chapter 229
Karl was annoyed by her question, turned around and squeezed her chin and k!ssed: “Okay.”
“…” She didn’t let him k!ss her again.
Karl looked at Alyssa’s shocked expression for a moment with satisfaction, and the corners of his lips were raised as if there was nothing, and he led her forward.
Clayton and Smith are waiting for them.
“Sir, Young Lady.”
“Karl.”
Alyssa nodded at Smith, and then greeted Clayton: “Lawyer Clayton.”
Clayton smiled relaxedly, and walked to Karl to talk to him about the case.
“Because of the particularity of this incident, to the greatest extent, Isabel can only be sentenced to three years in prison…” Clayton said and glanced at Alyssa.
Alyssa looked down at herself: “What?”
Before the group of people entered, Clayton suddenly took out a piece of gauze from his briefcase and handed it to Karl: “Tangle it.”
Of course, this was not for Karl to be entangled, but for Alyssa.
Karl frowned: “No need.”
Clayton shrugged: “None of you were injured originally. The lawsuit seems easy this time. I also fought very hard.”
Karl said coldly, “boring.”
He didn’t think so much at first, turning his head to look at Smith: “Smith, go back to the car with Miss.”
“Yes.” Smith replied respectfully.
“Then I’ll wait for you in the car.” Alyssa also understood the bends inside, so she didn’t ask much.
When Isabel was sued, it was in the name of the crime of intentional harm, and it was not impossible for Alyssa to appear in court intact, but it might cause unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, Clayton is a very strict person at work, and it is impossible for him to let Alyssa appear in court like this.
The best choice is if she doesn’t go in.
But Karl didn’t care about this. Hunt family was also there today. What he worried about was that Hunt’s family would lose control of their emotions and hurt Alyssa.
Since Isabel’s incident happened last time, he has never dared to take it lightly, and has a little slack.
This is also the reason why he does not easily let people into the villa.
He wanted to put an end to everything that might harm Alyssa.
Alyssa turned around and walked into the car with Smith. When she was halfway through, she suddenly looked back.
Karl was tall and slender, even though she was separated from him by such a long distance, she could feel his unique and awe-inspiring field.
Except for a strange temper sometimes, Karl is really an impeccable man.
Alyssa sometimes feels like she is dreaming, and feels that there is no real sense of all this.
“Young lady?”
When Smith’s voice sounded, Alyssa regained consciousness, only to realize that she had just walked in the direction of Karl.
“Let’s go.” She recovered, and returned to the car with Smith.
In the carriage, Alyssa looked at the door of the court and asked Smith: “Will Isabel really be sentenced?”
“Yes, Mr. Cox has never failed.” Smith’s tone was very positive.
Alyssa leaned back, took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Tina about it.
Tina immediately returned a message to her: “Heaven is a reincarnation!”
Yes, there is permanence in heaven.
Those who do bad things will be punished.
She thought about Karl’s mother again. After so many years, she vaguely felt that it was too difficult to find the real murderer behind the scenes.
Moreover, Karl himself said that the real murderer may be “someone from the Adams’ family”. Even if he really finds the real murderer, will he be more painful then?
Alyssa thinks it might be related to pregnancy, and has always been thinking about it recently.
She looked up and found that Smith was looking down at her phone.
Alyssa leaned over quietly and found that what she was looking at at night was a photo of a woman and a child.
Alyssa asked in surprise: “Smith, are you married?”
Smith fiercely covered the phone screen: “Yeah.”
“Your son is very cute, how old is he?” Alyssa didn’t know anything about him, and asked this because she just thought his son was cute.
When Smith mentioned his son, the corner of his eyes was stained with a smile: “Four years old, he’s a ghost.”
Alyssa found that when Smith talked about his son, the words became more frequent.
So she talked with him about this topic.
“Then he should go to kindergarten?”
“Well, he just went there in the second half of this year.”
“…”
Alyssa is pregnant now, and is just interested in the topic of the child.
After Smith got divorced, he became more and more taciturn. Following a boss like Karl who cherishes his words like gold, he finally got someone who could talk about his son, and he also talked more.
The two talked until Karl and Clayton came out.
“They are back.”
Alyssa discovered them first.
She helped Karl open the car door directly inside.
After Karl got into the car, he pulled his tie, his complexion was not very good.
Clayton sat in the front passenger seat.
Seeing Karl’s face cold, Alyssa looked up at Clayton.
Clayton turned around and spread his hands.
Looking at Clayton’s face as usual, it doesn’t look like the lawsuit has been lost. What happened to Karl?
“What’s the matter?” Alyssa asked him in a low voice.
Karl shook his head and said nothing.
At this time, the car window next to Alyssa was knocked several times from outside.
When she turned her head, she saw Gerald’s gentle and harmless face.
Alyssa frowned, finally understanding why Karl’s complexion was so ugly.
Alyssa lowered the car window. Before she could speak, Gerald smiled and said, “Alyssa, I heard you are pregnant? Congratulations.”
Alyssa was expressionless: “Thank you.”
Gerald raised his head to look at Karl again, and said slowly, “Karl, don’t forget to invite me to drink full moon wine then.”
Karl glanced at him coldly, without speaking.
Alyssa quickly raised the window, urging Smith: “Let’s drive.”
She now feels uncomfortable seeing Gerald, and always feels that Gerald’s hypocritical face is more terrifying than angry Karl.
“Karl, what’s the matter with you and Gerald Cain?” Clayton is the legal counsel of AdamPic Media, and he doesn’t know much about public relations and celebrity online public opinion.
Some time ago, he had also heard of it, but he just didn’t know what was going on.
There was no outsider here, so he asked directly.
“Go back first.” Karl looked reluctant to say more, and Clayton didn’t ask too much.
When Alyssa returned home, she also saw Gerald and Isabel close together. Today, when Isabel’s case is in court, it is not unusual for Gerald to come.
However, just seeing Gerald wouldn’t make Karl change his face.
Suddenly, there was a flash of light in Alyssa’s mind, and Gerald was considered half of Adams’ family. Karl could send Isabel in, and Gerald naturally had a way to get Isabel out!
Chapter 230
When Alyssa thought of this, her face was no better than Karl.
Gerald was really determined to fight against Karl.
She couldn’t understand the reason why Gerald could stand on the opposite side of Karl in such a brazen manner.
The atmosphere in the carriage is a bit stagnant.
Their plan in the morning was to go to Best Day for dinner after the matter was over.
Smith drove the car directly to Best Day.
Peter had already been waiting for them in the box.
When Alyssa and her party entered, he was ordering food.
She hasn’t seen Peter very much during this period of time. He still looks like a foolish man. He pulled out the chair and squeezed his eyes towards Alyssa: “Alyssa, come and sit here.”
His level of enthusiasm surprised Alyssa: “No matter how you please me, I won’t be able to help you speak nice things in front of Tina.”
“Don’t think about me being so utilitarian. You are a treasure now, and we all have to offer you the best service.” Peter said and looked at Karl: “Karl, don’t you think?”
Karl ignored him, took the chair for Alyssa, let her sit down, and then sat down beside her.
Feeling bored, Peter approached Clayton and asked him: “What’s the matter? Aren’t things going well?”
Clayton spread his hands.
He thought it was going well, but after Karl saw Gerald, his expression was not right.
The group had finished eating, it was already eight o’clock in the evening.
Peter and Clayton had a meal, and Karl and Alyssa went home directly.
…
When she got home, as soon as Alyssa entered the hall, she saw Mattie who was mopping the floor.
It’s hard to see.
When Mattie saw the two coming in, she called out: “Sir, Young Lady.”
Although Mattie’s face was swollen, Alyssa could still see her reluctance.
Mattie’s forehead was swollen and blue, with several bandages on her face, Alyssa couldn’t help asking, “Are you okay?”
Mattie seemed to be taken aback for a moment: “It’s okay.”
Karl didn’t look at Mattie, and directly took Alyssa upstairs: “Go up and rest.”
At the corner of the stairs, Alyssa turned her head and saw Mattie squatted on the ground again and wiped the floor.
“…” Mattie’s brain was broken, and she was going to be a servant seriously?
Alyssa was taken aback by this thought.
When the two returned to the room, Alyssa went to take a bath, and when she entered the bathroom with her front foot, the phone vibrated.
Karl glanced subconsciously and saw the message “Grandpa” displayed on the lock screen.
He remembered that Mr. Adams and Alyssa had added WeChat before.
Glancing in the direction of the bathroom, there was the sound of water.
Only then did Karl take the phone and open WeChat to read the news.
Karl clicked to listen to the tone of the message sent by Mr. Adams.
“Alyssa, today Anya caused you trouble.”
When Karl heard this, he just curled his lips for unknown reasons.
Elder Adams protects his shortcomings. Although Alyssa is pregnant now, he is happy, but Anya is also his granddaughter.
Anya must have run to Elder Adams and filed a lawsuit. Although Elder Adams is not a person who doesn’t know right from wrong, he still has to beat Alyssa when something like this happened.
Karl deleted the message from Mr. Adams and directly clicked on the video call.
Archer at the other end was also a little surprised that Alyssa would take the initiative to start a video with him.
He still clicked to accept.
After receiving the results, after the video was connected, where Alyssa appeared on the screen, it was clearly Karl’s face that upset him.
“Why are you? Alyssa?” The Elder Adams grinned, his face is clearly written that he did not want to see Karl.
Karl switched to a rear camera and pointed at the closed bathroom door: “She’s gone to take a shower.”
Elder Adams curled his lips: “I have nothing to say to you, I will call her tomorrow.”
Elder Adams said that he would turn off the video. At this time, Karl said leisurely: “If you are really bored, you can go back to the company and continue to work. I think your son must be happy to give you the position.”
Mr. Adams’ face suddenly became sharp: “Karl!”
Karl picked up his mobile phone and walked out, curling his lips mockingly: “When the granddaughter-in-law was pregnant, I stuffed my grandson’s villa with a woman. Is this someone like you who used to talk foolishly?”
This incident really angered Karl. He and Mr. Adams were indeed very close when they were young, but the last time he went back to the old house and asked him not to check his mother’s affairs, there was a gap between the two.
It’s just that the old man’s attitude towards Alyssa was good, and Karl didn’t make it clear, and he didn’t want to do anything.
But he didn’t expect that Elder Adams would come here again.
Elder Adams trembled with anger, and then said earnestly: “Karl, I am also doing this for your own good. You must inherit this family’s huge family business. You can’t put your mind on a woman. Don’t be like your dad…”
In the eyes of Mr. Adams, the noble son of a wealthy family, women by his side are naturally indispensable. This is all commonplace.
However, his most beloved Trevor, after his wife’s accident, has never had any woman, and has been depressed all these years.
He spent half his life, but gave birth to an infatuated son.
When Karl took Alyssa back to the old house, he saw the baby in his eyes, and he had other thoughts in his heart.
Karl sneered, “Like my dad? Are you sure he can’t forget my mom, isn’t it because there is a ghost in his heart, guilt?”
“Karl, how many times have I told you that there was no inside story about your mother’s affairs, it was just a simple accident.” A touch of tiredness appeared in Mr. Adams’ voice.
“You-mum grew up when I watched. You don’t know what kind of feelings your dad had towards you-mother, Karl, you have checked it out for so many years. What did you find out? I haven’t found out, those are what you originally imagined…”
Elder Adams was still talking about it, and Karl did not interrupt him.
Only when he finished speaking, Karl asked slowly: “Auntie will come back for the New Year this year? She hasn’t been home for the New Year for many years.”
After Karl finished speaking, he squinted his eyes and watched the expression of Mr. Adams expression calmly.
However, there was no other expression on Mr. Adams’ face except a trace of emotion.
Karl frowned slightly, could it be that Douglas lied?
In essence, he also didn’t want to believe that the aunts had something to do with things back then.
“Karl?”
Alyssa’s voice came, breaking Karl’s thoughts.
Karl turned his head and saw Alyssa put on her pajamas, with a thick coat wrapped tightly.
