Chapter 97
As soon as he finished eating, “Luther” drove Peter away.
Peter grabbed the door frame and didn’t want to leave: “It’s so dark and so cold, can’t you keep me for one night?”
It is difficult for Alyssa to associate Peter, who is holding the door frame like a puppy, and not letting go, with the well-known President Grant of AdamPic Media.
He may be possessed by something strange.
Peter felt Alyssa’s gaze, and immediately let go of her hand after a light cough: “In fact, it’s not too cold. I’m leaving now.”
After Peter left, only Alyssa and “Luther” were left in the hall.
Alyssa glanced at the door, wondering in her heart, why hasn’t Karl returned?
Where does he often go out with?
“I’m going up first.” Alyssa glanced at “Luther” before turning around to go upstairs.
“Luther” suddenly stopped her: “Alyssa.”
“What?” Alyssa stopped to look at him.
She was already very white, under the light, her face was more like a layer of a fine powder, and a pair of cat eyes fixedly looked at him.
“Hunt’s matter…” Karl paused deliberately in the middle of speaking. Seeing that Alyssa’s eyes were a little bit nervous, he curled his lips and smiled: “Need help?”
When he said the first half of the sentence, Alyssa’s heart jumped, thinking he knew something.
After hearing the second half of his sentence, her heart fell to the bottom of her heart again, but her expression was always uncomfortable, and she smiled a little reluctantly: “My dad, he will find a way, after all, this kind of thing happened in the factory. It’s a scandal for the company, and they have to solve it themselves.”
“Luther” tilted his head, and responded with a smile, “Oh.”
Alyssa nodded and went upstairs dingy.
When she returned to the room, she felt a little relieved.
After all, she is a member of Hunt’s family. She calculated Hunt’s family, and the fewer people knew the better.
Tina is her best friend, so she naturally didn’t need to keep it secret.
But “Luther” is different, no matter what he helped her, after all, he is from the Adams’ family.
Sometimes adults are so complicated, and it is difficult to trust a person.
…
The next morning, Alyssa got up in the morning and stopped when she passed Karl’s study.
Karl’s whereabouts were too secret, she didn’t ask about Karl’s situation in the past two days, and no one would actively tell her that he was completely invisible in this family.
On the contrary, “Luther” looks more like the boss here.
Although Alyssa was puzzled, she didn’t think much because she was going to work.
When she arrived at the company when Alyssa passed the public relations department, she saw a large group of people sleeping on the table, and two colleagues with dark circles came out of the pantry making coffee.
It seems that the colleagues in the public relations department stayed up all night last night.
Even if they stayed up all night, things at the factory have already become a big deal. It’s not like Isabel’s indecent video that can easily be publicized.
As soon as Alyssa sat down in her cubicle, someone came to notify her to go to a meeting.
Alyssa was purely watching the excitement today, so she followed to the meeting room.
It is nothing more than arranging some tasks to stabilize the customer.
When the meeting ended, Alyssa was about to leave with the others, and Colin’s secretary did not know when he would come.
The secretary nodded slightly: “Miss Alyssa, the chairman wants you to come over.”
“What’s the matter?” Alyssa asked, walking out slowly.
The secretary remembered the last time that Colin asked her to come to Alyssa. Alyssa walked away with no face. She stretched out her arm and said helplessly: “You can go there. The chairman was also the same last night. I didn’t sleep late…”
“Then you let go…” Alyssa originally wanted to see Colin and the others desperate.
She has to admit that her heart is actually quite bad.
At the door of Colin’s office, the secretary knocked on the door and said, “Chairman, Miss Alyssa is here.”
As she said, she opened the door for Alyssa and respectfully made a gesture of invitation.
“Thank you.” Alyssa smiled at the secretary, raised her foot, and walked in, closing the door smoothly.
Colin raised his head from behind the desk, with a gentle smile: “Alyssa is here, have you eaten breakfast?”
There are also a few breakfast boxes on the desk, and the logo on them is familiar. They are from nearby restaurants.
“I’ve eaten, what’s the matter with my dad?” Alyssa sat down opposite him with a serious expression.
Colin’s complexion did look haggard a lot, and she could see that he hadn’t slept all night, he shook his head, his expression was a bit vicissitudes of life: “You know what happened to the company, a colleague from the public relations department. Yesterday I was busy all night and I didn’t see any results. Yesterday someone went to smash the company’s store…”
Colin put on a bitter face and complained to Alyssa, which seemed a bit pitiful.
But Alyssa knew that Colin’s call for her early in the morning was not just a simple complaint, he must have some purpose.
Sure enough, as Colin was talking, he got involved with her: “The Hunt’s” is our own company. Although you are married, you are still a member of this family. Now that the company has such a major event, most people can’t keep wandering. Anymore, unless…”
Speaking of what he said, he already understood very well, that he wanted Alyssa to help him seek Adams’ family.
Alyssa was the initiator of this incident, how could she help Colin.
As if she didn’t understand, she said with a serious face: “Yes, this is a serious matter. Yesterday, I saw that all of them were scolding our company on the Internet. In this way, we have to make corrections. To be forgiven by consumers…”
This is simple to say. The most important issue for Hunt’s right now is that all partners have to terminate their cooperation, and even can sue Hunt’s. This is nothing but worse for them.
However, at this time, if the Adams’ family could come out and say something to the Hunt family, those partners would not dare to terminate the cooperation.
After all, no one can provoke the Adams’ family.
Colin saw that Alyssa was so inadequate, his complexion changed slightly, and his tone became serious, and no longer obliquely said, “These are secondary. The most important thing now is to maintain the normal operation of the company. You let Karl send someone Just come out and send a message, and our family will be able to overcome this difficulty.”
Alyssa’s eyes lit up: “That’s all right?”
Colin thought he had touched Alyssa, so he nodded and said: “Yes, it’s that simple.”
But soon, Alyssa’s face collapsed again, and she was a little bit horrified: “He gave me the black card before, but the kidnappers cheated it away. I haven’t dared to tell him that, if he knows this, he will definitely not let me go…”
Chapter 98
While talking, Alyssa paid attention to Colin’s expression.
When she mentioned the black card, she clearly saw a guilty conscience on Colin’s face.
Know your guilty conscience now?
However, it was too late.
Seeing that Alyssa’s fear was not pretending, Colin felt a little embarrassed, and said, “Don’t tell him about the black card first.
Alyssa sneered in her heart, it was the time, and Colin didn’t want to hand over the black card.
Although she thought so in her heart, the panic on her face became deeper and deeper.
She quietly pinched her leg, tears swirling in her eyes with pain, and then squeezed hard, tears came out.
Alyssa said with tears in her eyes, “That black card was just that Karl lent me, and I have to return it to him later. Even if I don’t say it, he will know it sooner or later…”
As if thinking of something terrible, Alyssa cried even harder: “You don’t know how terrible his person is. He is simply a devil. He will definitely not let me go…”
Alyssa couldn’t stop crying, she only now knew that her lacrimal glands were so developed.
Maybe she can really try it out in the entertainment industry.
Colin was upset at first, but he had been so warm to Alyssa because he was asked to pretend to be deliberate because of something. Now seeing her crying all the time, he is even more upset.
“Don’t cry!” Colin yelled at her angrily.
Alyssa stopped crying immediately and burped.
Colin saw a little contempt in her eyes. A fool is a fool. Even if it becomes beautiful and normal, it is still useless.
He thought that Alyssa had already turned Karl’s fascination around, so she got the black card from Karl, but he didn’t expect it to be just borrowed for use.
Alyssa felt a little disgusted with herself, and she didn’t want to be like this, she just cried too much.
Colin seemed to have made some major determination, and asked, “If the black card can be retrieved?”
“Can you get it back?”
A look of surprise appeared on Alyssa’s face, but it quickly disappeared. She gave a bleak smile: “Where can I find it back? I don’t even remember what the two kidnappers looked like…”
Colin silently observed Alyssa’s expression, and made sure that he really knew nothing about the truth of Rachel’s kidnapping, then frowned and said, “I’ll find a way.”
…
Coming out of Colin’s office, Alyssa went to the bathroom to wash her face.
Fortunately, she didn’t wear makeup today, otherwise, this face would not be able to be seen.
After washing her face, she found that her eyes and nose were still red.
She just cried so much.
She returned to her position, and the colleague next to her saw her look like this and asked her concerned: “Alyssa, what’s wrong with you?”
Alyssa shook her head: “It’s okay.”
The colleague didn’t ask more, but another colleague who had seen Colin’s secretary come to Alyssa before whispered, “The chairman was looking for her.”
“What is the chairman looking for?”
“I don’t know, it may be because of the factory. Didn’t she marry Karl? The chairman might want to borrow this relationship…”
“…”
Alyssa listened silently, feeling that the people in the project department were still very good, and they could all guess right.
What they said later, Alyssa didn’t hear clearly, but vaguely heard the words “too much…how could the chairman be like this…”.
Alyssa was a little curious about what the two colleagues had made up.
But they seem to be saying bad things about Colin?
…
AdamPic Media.
“Karl, should I ask Best Day to bring food over at noon?” Peter’s most positive thing every day is eating.
Karl did not raise his head: “No.”
Peter asked him: “Where are you going?”
Karl ignored him.
Peter rolled his eyes angrily. If he hadn’t known Karl for so many years, Karl’s personality, as cold as a refrigerator, would have long been beaten by him.
Karl just finished doing what he was holding. He looked up at Peter’s expression and said in a chilly tone: “You can beat me?”
Peter looked at him like a ghost: “Damn, I can’t beat you! Can you guess what I think?”
Karl laughed, picked up the phone, and walked out.
Peter has always been a talkative and active personality. He often fights in groups when he was a teenager in Secondary Two, and people who are familiar with him can easily guess his thoughts.
Karl drove to Hunt’s family.
The Hunt’s factory was exposed yesterday. After a night of fermentation, the world has already known it, and it is difficult for Colin to jump over the wall and guess that the person behind the scenes is Alyssa.
He was not at ease, so he planned to go to the Hunt’s to see the situation.
He drove the car to the parking lot and took out his mobile phone to call Alyssa, but no one answered.
He got off the car and went directly to the company.
Because of the factory, access to the Hunt’s has become stricter.
As soon as Karl entered, he was stopped by the security guard: “Who, who are you looking for?”
Most of the security guards are on the third and outer floors because they are afraid of making trouble.
Karl is tall, and most people have to look up at him when standing in front of him.
He bowed his head, his expressionless face was not angry and arrogant: “Find someone.”
The security guard felt that this person’s aura was too strong, and he was a big shot, so he didn’t dare to neglect him, so he took him to the front desk directly: “Tell them who you are looking for.”
The lady at the front desk was also ready today and was almost caught in by the reporters. At the moment, she was already in the dark.
But when she saw Karl’s face, she was a little stuttered: “Excuse me…who are you looking for?”
“Alyssa.” Karl lowered his eyes, hiding his impatience.
His patience has never been very good, but when he encounters something related to Alyssa, he finds that his patience will be higher.
“Alyssa?” The lady at the front desk felt that this sentence was familiar.
Before the lady at the front desk spoke again, a familiar female voice came into Karl’s ears: “Luther?”
Karl turned his head and looked around, just in time to see Alyssa coming from not far away.
She walked slowly, as if not sure if it was him, and then trot in his direction.
It was lunch break, and Alyssa was about to go out for dinner, but as soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw a tall and tall man who was suspected of “Luther” standing at the front desk to be questioned by the front desk lady.
How could “Luther” kind of arrogant man willing to accept cross-examination from the front desk lady?
But the more they looked more and more like, she called his name aloud.
Unexpectedly, it was really “Luther”.
Alyssa ran up to him with a face full of doubt: “It’s really you, why are you here?”
When the receptionist on the side saw Alyssa, she also recognized her and said with a smile, “Miss Alyssa, this gentleman is here to see you.”
