Chapter 1705
The phone hung up, Alice asked the people in the beauty salon to remove the props and equipment, and looked at herself in the mirror She had changed a lot, her black hair was slightly curled and naturally draped over her shoulders, thick and shiny, very good.
"Sure enough, it's still beautiful with black hair, compared to what gold, grandma gray, brown, it's much better-looking" Picking at his hair with self-satisfaction, he nodded and stood up, "Let's go, Shaffer, it's time to go to the appointment, see what advice does that Mrs. Kyle have"
"Okay, Miss" Shaffer put his things in his bag, etiquette was paramount, nodded to the people in the beauty salon, and turned away.
In the branch of the New York Hotel, in a private room of the restaurant, the decoration is magnificent, whether it is the door panels, the vase decoration, and even the ceiling is covered with gold and gorgeous oil paintings, and even the water glasses are made of sparkling crystal.
What a place where there is no humanity.....
Alice stood at the door, stiffening her knocking arm, looking at her own mother Xu Lina and Lady Kyle, who were drinking tea inside, and....
Her son, James...
This inexplicably feels like being pitted when the situation is going on.
"Ellie, what are you doing, come in quickly" Xu Lina saw Alice coming back, smiled and waved her hand to let her in, and patted the seat next to her.
"Good evening, Mother... Mrs. Kyle, uh, and, good evening, Officer James" Alice's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and she withdrew her arm slightly, turning back to give Shavre a hint of a look.
Shaffer, if I can't get out, you must kick in the door and save me!
"Ellie, don't be in a daze, come in" Xu Lina actually understood the meaning in Alice's eyes, and silently gave Shafer a hint with a look, if you dare to disturb us, I will kill you!
Shafer received their meaning at the same time, and a drop of cold sweat hung on his forehead, and he lowered his head and closed the door.
After sitting down, Alice looked at Mrs. Kyle's appearance, a middle-aged woman with a considerable temperament and literary atmosphere, and the wise eyes of a businessman, the standard American lady looks, a perfect woman.
"Alice, I haven't seen you for a long time, it seems that your recent situation is better than I thought" Mrs. Kyle's voice is very good, at least, very gentle, tender like water, seeing that Alice is still a little slow, pursed her lips and smiled, "Last year, on Mr. Xu's birthday, I appeared, and then on your birthday, I also gave you a gift, that famous painting by Peter Paul Rubens, annunciation, you who enjoy the name of angels in the entertainment industry, will like this painting I gave you"
"Oil paintings.... Of course I like "How could Alice's poor memory remember this thing, the gifts I received at that time were really a lot, and the only thing I remember was Leon given by my grandmother.... As for oil paintings, we laymen really don't know.
Xu Lina glanced at Alice's expression, and knew that she definitely couldn't remember, but this polite remark had to be said to the end, and said with a smile, "Don't embarrass my daughter, she only thinks about how to maintain her in the entertainment industry, like those literary and artistic design items you like, oil paintings, and ancient decorations, which are not suitable for her at all."
"Yes, but, King Lionheart's ring, it seems that Alice keeps it very well" Mrs. Kyle's eyes lingered on the ring on Alice's hand for a while, and teased her, "It is rumored that at the Paris auction, Alice bought this ring at a fixed price in order to make Mr. Xu happy, but I didn't expect that a person like Mr. Xu, who is reluctant to give up the lion's things, will reluctantly cut his love."
"Hehehehe, it's not, grandpa likes me more, don't tease me, madam, this ring, I also listen to the meaning of the nurse, and I protect it every day" Alice smiled shyly, using this smile to disguise the embarrassment in her heart.
"Okay, let's call someone to serve the food, I'm hungry, I just came back from Las Vegas, I'm going to be here, I'm already hungry" Xu Lina waved her hand and shook the rattle on the table, and observed Alice's expression, cleared her throat, and said, "Ellie, just finished getting a hairstyle?"
"I'm going to a meeting for the new movie tomorrow, and I'll dye it back when my new hair grows some back," Alice adjusted her chair and gently wiped her fork with a napkin, observing Mrs. Kyle, who had been smiling lightly, and Officer James, who remained silent and calm.
This picture seems to be déjà vu.....
After the waiter had prepared all the dishes and poured the wine, Alice used the excuse of a bathroom to send dozens of messages to Xu Lina, asking what the situation was.
"Mom, tell me the truth, this is a Hongmen feast, right?"
"The people of the Kyle family have never had anything to do with our family, why did they suddenly ask me to dinner, and besides, they even brought you?"
"And that James, oh my God~ I wish I hadn't seen him, this cold ice cube, almost didn't freeze me out of the cold"
'Message me back!'
'Message back to me!!'
Xu Lina looked at so many messages and a lot of expressions from Alice, and chuckled a word back to her.
Blind`date
"Oh God.... Blind date?"That's right... This means a blind date.
"I knew that Officer James wouldn't stay in South Korea and run back to the United States, there must be something going on, wait.."
Alice suddenly remembered something, rubbed her chin and thought for a while, and soon figured out how this blind date came about.
"Alas~ Why did I come here so obediently, is it too late for me to change the hotel now?
"It doesn't seem to work, Miss Lina said that if you run away without permission, your black card and bank card will be frozen, and you don't have enough cash on you."
"You ......"
Alice helplessly held her forehead, is this really my real mother? Am I really not the one she picked up?
Returning to the private room, he sat down on the chair in front of the eyes of the three people, awkwardly picked up the fork and knife, and ate the steak that was originally delicious but now like chewing wax.....
"Alice, may I ask you a question?" said Lady Kyle suddenly.
"Well, of course, of course" Alice was interrupted by this, and her whole mind was disrupted.
"I heard Lina say, you're still single, I think, you're in your youth now, and James is a little old, do you have any ideas to get to know him?" Talking so directly, I really don't mind if this is the first time we have officially met.
"Uh-huh... Ahem, I seem, I've met Officer James" Alice instantly understood what Mrs. Kyle meant, and my heart refused!
And he is still the one who my little sun sister has been chasing hard for more than half a year and still refuses to give up!
Not to mention that this officer is still the one who had a crush on his mother before.
"Ahem, maybe you don't know my situation very well, I'm inconvenient, I have too much contact with the opposite sex, you also know, in this society, the news and the paparazzi are very scary" Alice smiled a little embarrassed, if the media photographed herself standing with James, let alone the fans, the first one to come and besiege her was Sister Little Sun.
Moreover, going on a blind date with a man who has a crush on his mother, won't it be too complicated!
"Catherine, you don't have to tie up with my daughter for the sake of your son's future" Xu Lina held the wine glass in one hand, drank lightly and looked calmly at the elegant woman opposite.
Alice blinked, it turns out that Mrs. Kyle's name is Catherine, but this sentence seems to be correct in my thoughts and guesses.
It was said before that if Officer James never returned to his own territory, it would mean that the position of the heir of the family would be lost, and now it seems that it is no longer guaranteed, otherwise he would have thought of this.
Marriage, ah, this is the plan.
"The Kyle family is a military family, and the relationship with Minister Liliana is also very cordial, no worse than the French officer family who only knows how to please the president, Lina, and the children of the Abu family, no matter what, are not as good as James" Mrs. Kyle smiled, and she really didn't mind whether Alice agreed or not.
"Come on, I know my daughter, she doesn't like this kind of tone, and, I think, you definitely don't know about her situation" Xu Lina will still think about Alice, and besides, it doesn't matter if there is a soldier brother entangled in France on the French side, there is no more on the United States side, besides, which mother wants to see her daughter's future partner is a cold ice cube who is born and dies and is particularly impersonal.
Besides, this goods.... Alas~
"Minister Liliana agrees with this," Mrs. Kyle actually got up and moved out of Liliana.
"But my father still prefers the freedom of children, Catherine" Xu Lina calmly accepted the pressure, and threw the big stone of Xu Jianlin over.
The two of them are at least middle-aged women, and now they are still staring at each other with big eyes, and no one is willing to soften their tones.
Alice reached out and grabbed the cold sweat on her forehead, thinking of her little sister Sun, she silently gave Officer James a look, suggesting that he also said something, don't always be like an ice cube like this, don't say a word.
Officer James was still eating steak calmly as if he hadn't seen it, and he could be Alice's uncle regardless of his age, so he should not speak, so as not to be implicated.
