Chapter 26
What appeared in front of him at this time was Charlie, the editor in charge of the mv comics company, who often came in and out of his house because of discussing the plot.And the one opposite him is undoubtedly the mother of Adam's body, Catherine!
Dim lights, less than one meter apart, adult men and women, it's not obvious*!It's just that his father, Baker, passed away only half a year ago. Wouldn't it be too soon to start a new life like this?And the other party turned out to be his comic editor, which ruined Adam's three views in an instant.
"Adam! Things are not what you imagined." Catherine was obviously flustered, and he walked up to Adam to explain.
"What did I imagine?" Adam snorted coldly, turned around and closed the door, and replied angrily.
"Be lenient with your mother, Adam." At this moment, Charlie, who was standing in the living room because of embarrassment, suddenly interjected.
Adam frowned and glanced at him, and said in a cold tone: "What does it have to do with you when I talk to my mother?"
"Your father's death put a lot of pressure on her. She just wanted to relax a little bit." Charlie continued to defend Catherine as he walked towards Adam.
It was fine if he didn't speak, but when he spoke, Adam became even more angry, and immediately pointed his gun at Charlie, and said in a bad tone: "Ha, so you should become a psychiatrist instead of coming to my house to be a comic editor!"
"Adam! This is my business. I know it's a bit sudden to you, but I have nothing to apologize for!" Catherine interrupted the conversation between the two and said in a strong tone.
Hearing the aggressiveness in Adam's words, she knew that at least tonight, when Adam calmed down, it would be impossible to have a good communication.Besides, she knew that although this son was taciturn, it didn't mean that he was not good at words. If he opened his mouth to attack someone, it would be the rhythm of stabbing someone's heart with every sentence.
"Ha, if you can handle it well, I don't care at all! I'm not even interested in what kind of man you're looking for, I just want to know what Brett's expression will be when he finds out that you're looking for a new father for him." Adam He stared at Catherine with wide eyes, said with a sneer, and then went straight past him to his room, and closed the door.
"Cathy, maybe I should talk to him." Charlie watched Adam enter the room angrily, and Catherine, who looked disappointed for a moment, said with some guilt.
"Forget it, Charlie. You go back first! Thank you very much for paying me and Michelle a whole day today. It's the first time Michelle has had such a good time since Hader passed away." Catherine shook her head and said.
"Okay, but if you have any questions, you must contact me as soon as possible." Charlie glanced at Catherine with some concern, but still left Adam's home.
Not to mention the mood of Catherine outside the door, after Adam entered the room and closed the door, he sat on the chair in front of the desk, swept away the other party's stack of documents on the table, and thumped the table angrily.
However, after he sat there alone for half an hour, he suddenly shook his head helplessly.He discovered that in the past half a year or so of getting along, he had unknowingly regarded himself as the real Adam, not the foreigner who joined the family halfway.
So, when he found out that his mother, Catherine, was so close to a man who was almost a stranger without his knowledge, and even hated himself for him, he almost exploded with anger.
However, if you think about it from another angle, it is actually not a big deal.Firstly, old Baker passed away, and Catherine will have a new husband one day, which is inevitable after all; secondly, he and Brett have already left this house regardless of whether they want to go to college next year, leaving Catherine Widowed and orphaned with Michelle, it’s inconvenient after all; three times, although he didn’t ask about Charlie’s family background in detail, he knew that he was still single (it’s not unbelievable that manga nerds always find it difficult to find a partner) The matter.), and from such a long contact, I found that the other party has a very good temper, and it is quite pleasant to get along with him.
That being the case, Adam simply stopped thinking about these things, and it will be a matter of course.If they finally come to fruition, as long as Charlie does not disappoint Catherine, he has no need to object.
Having figured this out, Adam picked up the books and materials scattered on the table and piled them up again, so they can be used tomorrow.Then, I put on my clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower, and followed Carl to the city once. Not to mention anything else, the smell of oily smoke was enough to make people uncomfortable, not to mention... ahem, harmony, harmony.
Perhaps it was because there was still training the next day, so this time Brett did not stay overnight this time. After Adam took a shower, came out of the bathroom with his shoes squeaking, and was about to go to bed, he climbed into the room through the window.
"Adam, you're back? Where did you go today? I didn't see you." Brett scratched his head and said while patting the dust off his body.
"Going out for a stroll, how about you? Where did you go at night? I thought you wouldn't be coming back tonight." Adam climbed onto the bed, leaned against the head of the bed and put pillows on his neck, posing in a comfortable position. replied.
"Ha, this week is when the sequel to Elm Street is released. Of course, I went to the cinema with a few people from the team. I wanted to call Carol, but he said something was wrong. It's a pity. I remember him being crazy. Ghost fans." Brett turned the chairs in front of the table one by one, then sat down and said.
Adam's heart suddenly tightened. Although he knew that the other party must not have found out, he was still inexplicably uneasy, so he could only laugh and say, "Maybe, you know he is always busy."
"By the way, let's not talk about this." Adam was afraid that he would get involved, so he quickly changed the subject: "What do you think of Charlie?"
"Which one?" Brett didn't notice Adam's intentions, and frowned. The name was a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.
"It's the editor of the MV comics company in charge of my comics, Charlie." Adam reminded him a little.
"It's not bad, he's a good guy." Brett thought for a while, and then replied casually.
"If, I said if." Adam carefully chose his words and asked, "What do you think if he is with Catherine?"
"What? Are you crazy? How is it possible!" Brett frowned, looked at Adam seriously, and said incredulously.
"I know, I know." Adam felt like he was going to take another shower, but a few words made him sweat all over, and the skill of making conversation really wasn't something he could master: "I just said that if you would accept Is it?"
"Just don't let me see them making out, or I'll break his ribs!" Brett clenched his fists and said viciously.After finishing speaking, he looked at Adam and asked suspiciously: "Why do you think so? Do you want to introduce them? Don't even think about it!"
"Ha, how is it possible, I'm not crazy! Well, I'm asleep." Adam smiled exaggeratedly, then slid off the bed, pulled the thin blanket over himself, and pretended not to chat anymore.
Brett was baffled by him, sat in a chair in a daze, then shook his head to shake off the strange thoughts in his mind, got up and went to the living room to drink water.
Only Adam lay helplessly on the bed. It would be much better if Catherine was looking for someone else. What happened to Charlie?Although he thought he had been in contact with the other party for so long and didn't find any problems, but who knew?Isn't there a saying called 'knowing people, knowing the face but not knowing the heart'?
Such a person was suddenly sent to this small town because of work. Who knew his family background, behavior, and whether he had any bad love history.What's even more speechless is that if the two of them are together, how awkward it will be when he and Charlie get along in the future, it makes people scratch their heads just thinking about it.
Inexplicably, Adam thought about Catherine's matter again and again in his mind.In the end, it’s better to be still than to move, to open and close your eyes, and just pretend you didn’t see it.
Anyway, he himself is a mess, and the relationship between him and Carol is like a powder keg, which is no less worry-free than the other party's. If Brett and Michelle can accept it, he has nothing to be hypocritical about, after all, compared to their In other words, he who came in halfway has no right to speak.
