Chapter 1157
When Karl arrived home, it was already evening.
Before he came back, Alyssa sent him a text message, asking him when he would return, and determined the time when Karl would return. Alyssa went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Grace was very happy when she saw her coming back, and kept clinging to her. While she was cooking, Grace graciously laid hands on her.
“Mom, do you want a plate now?” Seeing that she had cut a carrot, Grace stepped on a small chair to get the plate from the cupboard.
Alyssa stopped cutting vegetables, and said with some worry, “Grace, be careful.”
“I know.” Grace held the plate in one hand. The other hand closed the cabinet door, stood on the chair, bent over and placed the plate on the counter before jumping off the chair.
The little person started doing things clean and tidy, Alyssa couldn’t help smiling, and took the plate that Grace handed over: “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Grace’s head tilted and smiled sweetly.
The shiny eyes are bent into the shape of a crescent, and the face is carved and jade like a sweet elf.
Alyssa held back her hand and touched Grace’s head, how could her daughter be so cute.
Suddenly, Grace’s eyes lit up: “Dad is back!”
“Where?” Alyssa glanced behind her, but didn’t see anyone.
“I heard the sound of the car!” Grace said, turning around and ran out.
The two short legs ran fast, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Alyssa’s body now returned to the stage of walking. She couldn’t walk as fast as she could, and it was impossible to catch up with Grace.
She didn’t worry, she washed her hands slowly before going out.
…
Karl had just got out of the car, with a suit jacket hanging from one arm, and walking into the villa while unbuttoning his cuffs with the other.
The bodyguard at the gate stooped to call him: “Sir.”
As soon as he took a big step, Karl heard Grace calling him.
“Dad!”
Karl paused and looked up into the courtyard.
Soon, Grace wearing turmeric sportswear appeared in the field of vision, and ran towards him like a whirlwind.
Karl stopped, and only felt that in the blink of an eye, the little turmeric dumpling had arrived.
Grace looked up at him: “You are back!”
She ran in a hurry, her bangs were messed up, her face flushed, and she gasped a little. Although she didn’t directly jump on him, she couldn’t hide the expectation in her eyes because she was a child.
“Yeah.” Karl replied and looked at her.
Afterwards, he lowered his head and took out something from his suit pocket and pinched it in his hand, slowly squatting down in front of her: “Come here.”
“Huh?” Grace looked at him with a puzzled look, but still got closer.
Karl stuck the hairpin on her head. Fortunately, he had taken care of Grace alone for a while, and he was not too unfamiliar with this kind of thing.
Grace reached out and touched the hairpin on her head, widened her eyes and said with surprise: “Little Moon.”
Karl laughed extremely faintly.
“Boom!” Grace held Karl’s face and tweeted, “Thank you, Dad.”
Karl didn’t say anything, just reached out and touched the saliva on his face.
Upon seeing this, Grace straightened her face, and took the initiative to pull his sleeves and said, “Dad, I will help you.”
She wanted to be nice to him because her father gave her the beautiful little moon card.
“No, go in.” Karl picked her up and walked into the villa holding her.
Chapter 1158
Grace put her arms around Karl’s neck, blinked, and asked quietly, “Dad, are you unhappy?”
Karl was stunned. Since he was holding Grace, the sights of the two were not much different, and they could meet the dark and bright eyes as soon as he turned his head.
She blinked her eyes and looked at Karl. At a young age, she naturally didn’t understand birth, old age, sickness and death, and the impermanence of the world, but she was sensitive to his emotions.
This is probably the blood connection.
The only person in this world who has the same blood flowing in his body but cares about him.
His daughter.
Alyssa gave birth to her for him.
The tired heart was comforted in this way.
Karl’s expression eased, and he answered earnestly, “Yes.”
Grace asked him again: “Why?”
“It’s my Mom’s business.” His mother’s experience over the years made him unable to let go.
There are some people whose sins are unforgivable, and the hatred in their hearts cannot be solved even with thousands of cuts.
Grace tilted her head and thought: “Is that my grandma?”
Many of her classmates in her kindergarten will be picked up by grandparents when school is over. She has never seen her grandparents, and her parents never mention them to her. Sometimes she is curious but never asks.
Karl answered her: “Yes.”
“Are you going to take me to see her?” Grace said with some distress, “Will grandma like me?”
Karl paused slightly: “Do you want to see her?”
“Yes.” Grace began to count her fingers with a serious face: “Dad’s mother must be as gentle and beautiful as Mom, and can cook delicious dishes. Mom can write TV shows and…”
Grace was talking babbledly, Karl listened in silence, but his steps were getting slower and slower.
Seeing that the father and daughter were too late to come out, Alyssa in the room couldn’t help but wanted to find out.
When she walked to the door, she saw Karl walking towards this side slowly holding Grace.
Grace was talking, although Karl’s expression looked normal, but when she took a closer look, she found his red eyes.
Alyssa was startled and walked towards him.
Karl seemed to feel something, and raised his eyes to look at Alyssa.
“Grace.” Alyssa approached, coaxing Grace to get off Karl, “Can you help mother go to the kitchen to wash the vegetables?”
“Okay.” Grace almost never refused Alyssa’s request.
As soon as Grace left, Alyssa stepped forward and hugged Karl gently: “I was cooking in the kitchen. I will cook your favorite dish tonight.”
“I’m fine.” Karl knew her worry.
Alyssa sighed, at this moment he still said that it was all right.
The next moment, she felt Karl tighten his arms around her, and his voice was so low that she could hardly hear him: “I am just a little sad.”
His breathing sounded full of depression.
Alyssa was also saddened by him.
But fortunately, he was finally willing to show her his fragility, instead of taking on everything alone as before.
Alyssa gently stroked his back comfortably: “I know.”
How could he not be sad?
He has been too tormented all these years.
It took a long time for Karl to let go.
The eyes look redder than before.
Alyssa reached out to touch his face, her eyes full of distress: “You go take a shower first, and eat after the shower, okay?”
The tone of the question seemed to coax the child.
Karl nodded, very obediently.
“Go.” Alyssa stretched out her hand and led him into the room.
