Chapter 956: Complicated Family Relationships
Alvin smiled and glanced at Sam, who was nervously spilling all the coffee beans on the ground, he shook his head amusedly, stretched out his hand to Lucy, and said with a smile: "Hello, I'm Alwin, I've heard of you."
But how did you get here, your adoptive mother?
It's not a good habit to say goodbye without saying goodbye! ”
Lucy wrinkled her little nose and bared her teeth cutely, and said, "Anne's husband took Anne and us into the garage.
It was Sam and Emma's dad who saved us ......"
As she spoke, Lucy pointed to a man and a woman cowering in a corner of the restaurant, and she made a grimace by her neck, saying, "If it weren't for them, we would have been eaten by rats......
But Sam is brave and Emma's dad is great! ”
Alvin was a little confused by the story of the little girl, Lucy, but luckily the man and woman around the corner looked like an adoptive couple......
Glancing at the nervous and busy Sam and Lucy with a sweet smile on her face, Alvin shook his head with a smile and said to Sam, "Hey man, get our guests a cup of coffee too, they look like they need this." ”
Saying that, Alvin glanced at Lucy, who was very precocious, shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's not a good choice to entertain your adoptive parents like this!"
I've heard that they're very nice to you......"
Lucy glanced at her adoptive mother who was huddled in the corner crying and the adoptive father who worked on Wall Street, she pouted and wrinkled her little nose, and said a little unconvinced: "But they separated me from Sam, and they thought I didn't have a father......"
Alvin smiled and reached out to rub Lucy's head, then looked at Russell and said, "I'm going to say hello, my waiter has caused some people to be troubled......"
Russell raised the whiskey in his hand indifferently and said with a smile, "I can have it, but you'd better ask the old ghost who watched us for almost an hour to find us a place to stay......"
Alvin stood up with a smile and looked at Russell, who was in a bad mood, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Old Kent is not spying on you, he is protecting you."
When I'm done with the problem, I'll give Harvey a call, it's a good day for that fat man, it's easy to find a hotel for you.
Or you can just stay at the Avengers' headquarters, but there's no one there, so it's not easy to eat or anything......"
Saying that, Alvin patted Russell on the shoulder and walked up to the couple, and said with a smile: "It looks like you're freaking, I'm Alvin, if it's my buddy who causes you trouble, well, I'm sorry!"
You are good people and you don't deserve to be treated like this! ”
As soon as Alvin finished speaking, the blonde woman lost control, her broken hands covering her cheeks and sobbing in a low voice, which made Alvin fear that she would faint from crying at any moment.
The husband, a middle-aged man of Latin descent, nervously glanced at the GIs who were entrenched around, then stood up and shook Alvin's hand, and said a little embarrassedly: "Hello, Mr. Tomahawk, you are my idol!"
I'm Paxton, Paxton?? Maggie, this is my wife Anne, Anne?? Maggie.
She's kind of, um, you know, the atmosphere here kind of scares her......"
Alvin smiled and nodded, motioned for Paxton to sit down, and then looked at Annie with tears streaming down her face?? Maggie, after a moment's hesitation, said, "If those GIs make you nervous, I can find someone to drive you home."
Now the rat plague in New York is basically under control......"
Annie?? Maggie cried even louder when she heard this, and while crying, she broke down and said, "I'm going to wait for news from my daughter......"
Alvin frowned and looked at Lucy at the bar and the little girl sitting with the striped man in the bar, and said, "You still have a daughter?" Then why do you have to adopt......
Saying that, Alvin raised his hand to comfort Anne, and said helplessly: "Then you want to tell me where your daughter is?" I'll get someone to pick her up, and then you can go home." ”
Looking at Annie, who couldn't speak, her husband Paxton was a little helpless and bent over her shoulders and whispered a few words in her ear.
Then he looked up at Alvin and said, "Anne's daughter, Casey, was picked up by her grandfather.
Actually, we were going to take Lucy and Emma on a vacation to a farmstead in New Jersey, but we realized we had forgotten something and turned back home......"
Alvin was even more confused when he heard it, what is Annie's daughter? Why is the relationship between this family so chaotic?
Paxton, perhaps aware of Alvin's confusion, put his arm around Anne's shoulders and said with a wry smile, "Casey is the child of Anne and his ex-husband, and I......
Anne loves children, so we want to adopt a child so Casey can have a friend. ”
As he spoke, Paxton glanced at the strong man, nodded gratefully to him, and then pointed to the little girl and said to Alvin: "Emma has a congenital disease, but long-term hospitalization is not good for her physical and mental health, so we accepted her as a volunteer family to come to our house for boarding ......"
Alvin looked at the ordinary-looking Paxton and the sentimental Annie, and shook his head with a little emotion, this couple is really good people.
Judging by their clothing, they are at most middle-class families, but they are full of love.
Paxton may be a bit of a hideaway, but he's very open, he wants to make his family whole by adopting a child or something.
If adopting Lucy was just to fulfill their own wishes, then sponsoring the little girl named Emma next to her would be enough to say a lot.
Looking at the crying Anne, Alvin smiled and said, "Give me an address, and I'll have someone pick up your daughter and your father together."
Why don't you give your dad a call?
Make sure they're safe and you don't have to worry......"
Anne looked at the gentle Alvin, stood up and grabbed his arm, and said with a burst of tears: "My father did not want to leave the farm, he insisted on staying there, and he called my husband a coward......
I'm worried about breaking down, those rats are really scary! ”
Alvin reluctantly patted Anne on the shoulder, he could be considered to have found the couple's small shortcomings......
Looking at Paxton with an embarrassed expression, Alvin said, "Where's the address?" What is Casey's full name? ”
Paxton rubbed his hands together and said a little embarrassed: "Rose Farm in Claywood, New Jersey." ”
Saying that, Paxton glanced at Annie, and then said a little frustratedly, "Kathy, Kathy??" Bright......
I'm sorry, Annie, I ......."
Alvin patted Paxton on the shoulder with a little emotion, and if this matter was seen alone, Alvin felt that he might look down on this man.
But now that I think about it, no one is perfect, and this Paxton has done everything he can.
At least he protected his wife and two adopted children in times of danger......
Looking at the anxious and helpless middle-aged man, Alvin thought for a moment and then turned to the group of soldiers who were drinking, and shouted with a smile: "I need a few volunteers to drive a helicopter to New Jersey ...... right now"
Saying that, Alvin glanced at the excited Paxton, and said with a smile: "By the way, bring this old man, we have to give him a strong momentum in front of his father-in-law, who hasn't looked down on his father-in-law, you say?" ”
A dozen or so GIs watched drinking, but they had been listening to the conversation between Alvin and the couple, and good people always got preferential treatment from these tough men.
And these GIs know very well that their future is in the Avengers, why not give Alvin a little face, which will be very good for their future work.
Soon four men stood up, and a middle-aged man walked up to Alvin and said, "That's what we're doing......
Saying that, the man glanced at Paxton, he patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, and said with a smile: "My buddy will give you makeup on the plane, believe me, if you want your father-in-law who is a farmer to be kind to himself, you better be 'tough'......"
The man looked back at his head when Paxton was grateful, and he smiled and said, "We're the best at 'tough' ......"
The big man in the striped T-shirt also stood up at this time, he walked up to Paxton, looked at him seriously and said, "You saved my daughter's life, that is, you saved my life, let me do something for you......"
Paxton was obviously a little scared of this big man, he nervously didn't know whether to nod or shake his head and said, "No, no, no, no, it was you and Sam who saved us, otherwise ......"
The big man shook his head helplessly, he glanced at Alvin, and then said seriously to Paxton, "My name is Flint??" Marco, Emma's dad.
I've been around there all the time, and I know what you've all done for Emma......
Emma was lucky to have met you, and I ......."
Speaking of Flint?? Marco said with a wry smile: "I was never a good dad, I could only watch Emma suffer in a hospital bed and send myself to prison......
Let me do something for you, it will make my heart feel a little better! ”
Alvin glanced at Paxton, who had a strange expression, smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Be brave buddy, the people here have no ill will towards you."
I'll find you a cooler combat uniform, give your father-in-law a little color, and at least let him know you're not a coward......"
