161 Confusing dinner
It is indeed possible for a person to change his temperament after being strongly stimulated.
But it's unusual to change so quickly and obviously like Alyssa.
When he saw Mrs. Chelsea in the evening, the other party threw a look at Mellen.
As if asking, why did her daughter suddenly become so "cheerful"?
Mellen, who was sitting across from her, blinked, but didn't say anything.
His eyes couldn't help but glance at the teacher's lower abdomen.
It was covered with the black fabric of the worsted waist, of course, and there was nothing to see, but it made Madame unconsciously reach out to cover it, as if she was sensitive to it.
However, the situation of the two of them "eyebrows and eyebrows" was interrupted as soon as the signs appeared.
"This table is so small."
The slender blonde girl was sitting on the side of the two at this time.
After raising her hand and touching the delicate square dining table in front of her, which was covered with neat cloths, she looked up at Mrs. Chelsea.
"But I think it's so much better than the one we're used to, Mom."
"Your grandmother likes small ones."
Mrs. Chelsea replied in a sturdy tone.
"When she was alive, most of the manor was vacant and we only lived in a small house."
Mrs. Ran was obviously suspicious of her daughter's current attitude.
But when facing her daughter, she often posed as an elder.
However, thinking of Alyssa's previous claim that she saw the "rescue" process, Mellen's eyes became strange when she looked at the teacher.
Mrs. Chelsea was unaware of this.
Sitting opposite Mellen, she looked dignified and determined at the moment, her words and deeds were elegant and measured, and she had the demeanor of a mature mother, and she couldn't see that she could ever do that kind of "dirty" behavior to students.
"It's nice to have a small style once in a while, but it's actually inconvenient to do it all on a daily basis."
"Can we eat here all the time until school starts, Mom?"
The girl asked.
Her voice was not loud, but it was full of coquettishness, which made Mrs. Chelsea unconsciously stunned, and then nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Then she turned to look at Melen.
"About your departure from the manor, I-"
"Leaving the manor?"
Alyssa suddenly interrupted her mother's words with a surprised expression, "Why did he leave the manor?" ”
"Because your father has something to do, of course."
Madame said, "He's been very busy all these years, and you should have heard those special noises before." ”
Now that Mellen has already done what he has done, he can't be debunked anymore.
So why Melen wanted to mix with a group of "juniors" as Iger became a matter that needed to be explained.
At the same time, bringing up the subject, although it would ruin the current harmony, can observe the girl's reaction to it - her attitude is really abnormal, and Mrs. Chelsea urgently needs to understand what is going on.
It's just that, to her surprise, after this sentence, the girl's face did not show any doubts or even annoyance, but she glanced at Mellen in a low tone.
"What needs to be so busy? It's hard to get together, can't we wait until after school starts......"
This seems to be a longing for family affection?
Madame raised her eyebrows when she saw this, but she vaguely felt that this was not possible.
However, before she could say anything more, the black-haired boy who had been silently peeling a shrimp from a tableware suddenly spoke.
"Then let's stay until school starts, although there are some urgent matters, but if you think about it, it doesn't really matter."
These words made a smile bloom again on the face of the girl with a depressed expression.
Mrs. Chelsea glanced at Mellen and said nothing.
So the tone of the dinner was roughly set.
The introverted blonde girl is now the most active person at the dinner table, constantly asking her mom all sorts of questions.
Occasionally, he would focus on Melun, who was much quieter than usual.
But the remarks involved are basically related to Mrs. Chelsea -
She seems to be deliberately trying to match her mother with Melen.
This attitude has been discovered by Melen before.
Because if it weren't for that, there would be no need for the girl to run to him to expose Madame's "lies", let alone offer to get the three of them together for dinner......
"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"
What did she know?
Or are you going to do something?
Mellen was puzzled by this.
This doubt even washed away the joy he had felt before because he knew the truth.
However, he didn't say anything about it, except for a sentence or two when he was asked about himself, and most of the time he observed.
Time flies.
The milky white dining room, which had been clearly carefully decorated, was brightly lit, and the three of them sat around the square table and ate their dinner slowly.
One of the two blonde ladies asked questions frequently and the other responded patiently, looking more like a pair of sisters with some age gap than mother and daughter.
And Merron, who sat on the side, was like a taciturn brother - he had a tender face, and he didn't even look as old as Elisa.
At least Alyssa jokingly said that it would be nice if Melen were her brother.
It was also the most outrageous sentence she ever said at this dinner.
In addition, the girl behaved exactly what a daughter should be.
"But she never called you Dad."
When dinner was over, Mrs. Chelsea pulled Melen into her study, her usual hoarse voice full of seriousness.
"What do you think she's thinking?"
Blood relationship does not mean family affection, if there is no emotional foundation, of course, the girl will not be called Mellen's father casually.
But looking at her previous behavior, it seems that she agrees with Mellen's father's identity.
This is very wrong.
"I'm not sure, but at least she's consciously avoiding suspicion."
Melun, who was sitting in the old seat, muttered: "When we met in the afternoon, she even knew to take the initiative to resolve some misunderstandings. ”
The resentment in her heart is called resentment, and being able to say it calmly has proved that the girl will no longer be obsessed with something that has happened.
With her previous act of burning books, she was really decisive.
But even if this daddy buff is destined to have such an effect, it is impossible to play so quickly.
So in the middle, there must be something that the two of them don't know about.
"If she was just an ordinary girl, I would even suspect that she couldn't stand the blow and wanted to kill herself."
"But as your daughter, she shouldn't be so vulnerable," Mellen said. ”
When he said this, he was actually reminding the teacher in disguise that he could not rule out the possibility of this.
After all, a large number of young people are not very mature in their thinking, and it is very easy for them to get into the horns and then make some radical behaviors.
Even, not only young people, this kind of situation is unavoidable for many middle-aged and elderly people.
As a modern-day traveler, Mellen is well-informed.
"There was no way she would have killed herself because of this."
Mrs. Chelsea is sure of this, "Alyssa is very introverted, but not world-weary, and there are some things that she may run away from, but certainly not at the cost of her life. ”
"If it's not an internal personality reason, then it's likely to be an external situation."
Mellen turned to say, "For example, her bloodline? ”
Judging from some previous events, the girl's bloodline does affect her temperament.
But this influence only made her more "extreme", but never showed signs of becoming more "sensible" or even more mature.
Mrs. Chelsea frowned.
"I don't rule it out, but I always feel that it won't be like this."
What could that look like?
Melen hesitated for a moment when she heard this, and then said, "Maybe you should tell me, what is going on with Alyssa's bloodline?" ”
