Chapter 373
Karl looked like an outsider, watching Claire’s pale and weak rebuttal.
In his indifferent gaze, Claire’s excuse that she wanted to say later was cut off.
“Done?” Karl said mockingly.
Claire moved her lips and was speechless.
Karl sneered, then turned upstairs and went to the study.
He closed the study door and paced to the French window.
Outside the window is a cold rainy night, the street lights in the courtyard are dim, the trees overlap each other, and the shadows are heavy.
The rain is still falling and the wind is blowing.
Karl stared out of the window for a while, and suddenly there was a scene of Alyssa and Clifford standing together.
That picture was extraordinarily…dazzling.
…
After Alyssa and Clifford returned home, she took a hot bath and changed her clothes.
When she came out, Clifford had already cooked her a bowl of ginger soup.
Clifford brought the ginger soup to her and said, “It might be a bit spicy.”
Alyssa picked up the spoon, something flashed through her mind.
It seems…someone has cooked ginger soup for her before…
With a dull pain in her head, the spoon in her hand fell back into the bowl with a “ding”, she closed her eyes and covered her forehead with her hands.
“What’s the matter?” Clifford saw her reaction in his eyes, and leaned forward to look at her quickly, with concern in his tone.
Alyssa’s voice was a bit weak: “It’s a little headache…”
When Clifford heard the words, his eyes flashed slightly: “What did you remember?”
“Not…”
The dull pain came and went quickly. She shook her head blankly, then turned to ask Clifford, “Have you ever made ginger soup for me before?”
Clifford said with great interest: “Guess?”
Alyssa laughed, Clifford had always been cautious and thoughtful, and rarely joked with her like this.
She smiled: “You know I don’t remember anything.”
“Those are not important.” Clifford finished speaking and urged her: “Hurry up and drink.”
After Alyssa drank the ginger soup, because it was too late, she hurriedly cooked two bowls of noodles as dinner for two.
During the meal, Alyssa thought of Karl and Grace, and said casually: “That Mr. Adams looks inaccessible, but he’s kind to her daughter.”
Clifford paused with the chopsticks in his hand, and asked calmly, “What do you think of others?”
“As a father, I can see that he loves his daughter a lot, but he has a weird temper.” Alyssa said as she nodded her head to agree with him.
“Really.” Clifford replied, not speaking.
Alyssa raised her eyes and saw Clifford’s contemplative look.
“What’s wrong with you?” Alyssa rarely saw Clifford showing this way, and asked: “What’s wrong with you? Is work not going well?”
“No.” Clifford smiled and shook his head: “Let’s eat.”
Alyssa continued to eat noodles, the contemplation in Clifford’s eyes became heavier.
Judging from today’s situation, the two did not recognize each other.
…
The next day.
As usual, Karl took the car to go to work.
However, when the car was halfway through, Karl told the driver: “Go to AdamPic Media.”
Because of yesterday’s matter, the driver did not dare to ask more, but said: “Yes.”
It didn’t take long for the car to stop across the road from the entrance of AdamPic Media.
Karl glanced at the door of AdamPic Media and told the driver aloud: “Come on. When you see Peter, you tell him that I am looking for him.”
The driver got out of the car and left.
Before long, he walked over with Peter.
There was a man behind Peter.
The man had a stern face and seemed to be a cautious and steady person.
When seeing Karl himself, Peter was still a little bit disbelieved: “Karl, are you looking for me?”
Every time he had looked for Karl before, but hadn’t he been driven away by Karl, he didn’t expect that Karl would take the initiative to look for him one day.
People really will be constantly tortured by reality and constantly lower their requirements.
He used to feel that Karl was ruthless if he didn’t ask him to eat, but now it’s not easy to meet him…
Karl retracted his gaze and responded, “Yes.”
Peter pulled the car door and sat in, turned to look at Smith, take a break, and said to Karl, “Let Smith come in too? You may not remember him. He was your former special assistant for many years.”
After Karl’s accident, Claire dismissed Smith.
Smith was fired and went to AdamPic Media to work under Peter.
Karl returned his gaze to the man with a rigid expression, and nodded invisibly.
Peter, who had been turned away by Karl, felt a little flattered. He couldn’t believe it and said, “Did you…recover your memory?”
Karl said coldly, “No.”
“Then why are you looking for me?” Peter said cautiously, he felt like a concub!ne summoned by the emperor in the cold palace at the moment.
Karl asked him directly, “We used to have a deep friendship?”
“Yeah.” Peter sighed: “Just your bad temper, only I can stand, who else wants to be friends with you, really…”
Halfway through, he felt that the air pressure and temperature in the compartment seemed to have become lower.
Although Karl had amnesia, his temper had not changed at all.
He smiled chastely: “Let’s tell you this, except for me, Smith is the one who has the deepest friendship with you. After all, he has been working under your hands for many years.”
After he finished speaking, he pushed Smith who was sitting aside: “Smith, you say yes.”
Since he was fired by Claire, this is the first time he’s seen Karl in the news in the past three years.
After all, the status disparity is too big, there is no chance to meet at all, and no chance of encounter.
Thinking of these things, he nodded with mixed feelings: “Yes.”
Karl’s gaze swept back and forth over the two of them, then took out a business card and handed it to Smith: “I’m missing a special assistant now, so you thought it out and call me.”
Peter widened his eyes blankly, didn’t Karl specifically come to him today?
How did it become Smith’s business card now?
Smith received the business card in a fright.
Karl retracted his hand and said faintly, “I’m going to the company now.”
This is an order to dislodge a guest and let Peter and Smith get off the car.
Peter and Smith stared at each other. Although they didn’t understand what Karl meant, their obedience to Karl obediently caused them to get out of the car without questioning.
Karl looked at the backs of the two through the car window, thoughts flashing in his eyes.
He woke up three years ago and there was only one Claire beside him. He lost all his memories. Of course he chose to believe in Claire who was blood related to him.
But recent events made him feel that Claire was not so credible.
Chapter 374
When Karl returned to the Adams’, he saw Claire in the president’s office.
When he entered, she was sitting on the sofa with a sullen expression on her face. It was obvious that she was waiting for a long time.
As soon as Karl entered the door, she asked aloud, “Where have you been?”
“Where do I need to report to you?” Karl glanced at her, walked straight to the boss chair behind the desk and sat down.
Claire was completely ignored.
Claire was so angry that she got up and stepped on her high heels and walked to him angrily: “Karl, we are brothers and sisters. We have a relationship of blood thicker than water. We should trust and support each other.”
“Trust each other?” Karl asked her mockingly as if he had heard something funny, “Have you lied to me?”
Karl stared at her sharply, a panic flashed in her eyes, barely maintaining the smile on her face, and tentatively asked: “Who said something to you?”
Karl did not answer, just stared at her.
Claire was stared at by him uncomfortably, and the fear that the lie might be exposed made her not even know how to let it go.
Why should she feel guilty and afraid?
Everything she did back then was for Karl, for this Adams’ family!
Thinking of this, the look on Claire’s face returned to normal again: “No matter what others say to you, don’t believe them. Our family can go to this day. How many pairs of eyes are staring at us, wishing us the two siblings are fighting each other, so they can take advantage of it!”
It’s not the first time that Karl heard such words from her, and said without emotion, “Really?”
Claire said with certainty: “Of course!”
Karl stopped looking at her, lowered his head and turned on the computer: “I want to work, you can go out.
Claire was not sure if Karl believed her, but she had to turn around and go out.
After leaving the president’s office, Claire’s face was stained with doubt.
Karl had been fine for the past three years. He didn’t think of anything before, and didn’t have much contact with Peter’s group. Although he didn’t get close to her much, he still listened to her.
But recently, she found that Karl was getting more and more difficult to control.
Where is the problem?
While thinking about it, Claire went back to her office, and then dialed an overseas phone.
The phone rang several times before being connected.
As soon as the phone was connected, Claire said angrily: “Dr. Dixon, my brother has been out of my control recently. He doesn’t listen to what I say. I suspect that your hypnotism has a loophole! “
The phone is very quiet.
After a while, a slightly hoarse male voice sounded: “Hypnosis is not soul-satisfaction. Even if he is hypnotized, he still has his own thoughts and ideas. If you want him to obey you and control him, you can rely on your own skills.”
There was no strange emotion in Dr. Dixon’s tone, but Claire felt that he was mocking her.
Claire clenched her fists and said with an ugly expression: “Are you mocking me for not having the ability?”
Dr. Dixon said in a hurry, “In three years, you were the only one who could gain his trust, but you have played a good hand so badly, that’s a kind of skill.”
“you……”
Claire has always been proud, and rarely puts anyone in her eyes. Hearing such words, she naturally wanted to lose her temper.
But when she thought that she has to rely on this Doctor Dixon, he forced his anger back.
She closed her eyes, calmed down her emotions, and asked again: “Doctor Dixon, is it possible for my brother to remember what happened before?”
“I have no absolute answer to this question.”
“You mean, he might think of the past?” Claire’s expression changed drastically, “Didn’t you say that it would be foolproof?”
“That’s just what you think is foolproof, I still have a job, goodbye, Miss Alyssa.”
After Dr. Dixon finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
“Doctor Dixon? Hello? Hello?” Claire couldn’t believe that this broken doctor would dare to hang up her phone.
She was so angry that she dropped the phone and walked anxiously around the office.
No, you can’t just sit and wait like this, and you can’t remind Karl of the past.
As long as he is not allowed to contact the people before, he will definitely not remember the past.
Hasn’t it been this way for the past three years?
The more Claire thought about it, the more she felt that her ideas were correct.
Thinking about this, Claire called inside and called Karl’s driver over.
Claire asked, “Where did Karl go in these two days?”
The driver lowered his head and said hesitantly, “He didn’t go anywhere.”
Hearing this, Claire sneered: “Did he go to AdamPic Media to find that Peter?”
The driver said quickly: “…Yes.”
Claire glanced at him warningly: “Look closely.”
…
Because Grace was taken out by Miana before and almost lost, Karl did not work overtime, and left the company to go home as soon as it was off work.
He walked out of the Adams building with his front foot, and Claire followed with her back foot.
“Karl.”
She quickly followed and called Karl’s name.
Karl turned his head, staring at her with a calm expression: “Something is going on.”
Claire stepped forward and took Karl’s arm, with an int!mate look: “Let’s go home together.”
Karl gave her a weird look, then pulled out his arm, and strode towards his car.
When Claire saw this, her complexion was not very good, but she was not easy to suffer, so she had to follow.
The driver opened the car door for Karl. Just as Karl got in, Claire followed him into the car.
Karl frowned slightly, but didn’t say much.
He bowed his head and took out a document to look at.
Claire was a little embarrassed.
Only then did she realize that she and Karl couldn’t find a topic to talk on, except for their disagreement.
This recognition aggravated the anxiety in her heart.
She thought for a while, and said, “Karl…”
“I want to read the information, don’t disturb me.” Karl didn’t look up, his tone indifferent as if talking to a stranger.
His words are for this reason, and Claire will not continue to talk to him without asking herself.
The car stopped at the door of Adams’ Old House.
When Karl got out of the car, he noticed a white car parked in the parking lot in front of the door.
That is Miana’s car.
Miana often comes to Adams’ house, because of Grace, he used to close one eye.
He had a good memory in the first place, and after seeing more, he naturally remembered Miana’s car.
He said yesterday that Miana should not come to the house in the future.
Did she completely ignore his words?
