Chapter 990 Will Not Let Kindness Down
Marco was silent for a moment, and then said a little embarrassedly: "I work as a construction worker in the dock area, responsible for mixing concrete..."
Alvin hesitated for a moment, looked at Marco, who seemed to be determined to take the right path, and said: "There is still a position for school security, 5,000 yuan a month, the salary is not high, but Emma can study in the school, in She doesn't have to spend a penny there.
Do you think you can support Emma like this? "
Marco rubbed his hands excitedly after hearing this, turned around a few times, then looked at Emma with a grin and said: "I can, I can, actually I don't have to spend any money myself, I will definitely be able to save enough for Emma's college. tuition fee……"
Alvin looked at Paxton and Annie and said with a smile: "Forgive me for being arbitrary, but I don't think you will refuse to let Emma return to her father, right?"
Annie covered her mouth while crying hard under Alvin's stunned gaze, and nodded and said: "Yes, yes, we are very happy that Emma's father can take her back..."
As she spoke, Annie seemed to think she had said the wrong thing. She stood up and ran to Emma, hugging Emma who was a little thin because of love, and cried while saying: "I'm sorry, I'm just glad you found your father. We still love each other." you……"
Emma seemed to be very used to Anne's temper. The 7-8-year-old girl patted Anne's shoulder comfortingly and said with a smile: "Thank you, Anne's mother. Now I have two fathers and one mother. Isn't that right?" It means I will be happier..."
Annie wiped away her tears and nodded desperately, then held Emma's cheek as if she couldn't get enough of it...
Shangqi looked at Anne who was kind-hearted and a little too kind. He finally began to wonder whether he was doing the right thing or not. It was impossible for such a kind person to hurt Lucy and Sam...
Just when Shangqi couldn't help but want to say something, Lao Cheng, who had been silent the whole time, walked up to him and pulled him, sighed and said, "Don't hesitate, you are Xi Jinping." Martial people cannot hesitate in anything!
Watch how Alvin handles today's affairs, and then keep it firmly in mind. "
As he spoke, Lao Cheng sighed a little sadly and said: "Originally, I, the old uncle, should have come forward to help you solve these things, but I don't have the energy I had back then!
Sam is a fool, and when you want to help him, you have an extra burden on your shoulders.
This is not a problem that can be solved by taking Lucy back...
That's just a starting point, the result may be good or bad...
We Chinese people pay attention to helping people to the end, sending Buddha to the West, and doing things halfway will make everything go beyond your imagination.
You are kind-hearted. Now that you have decided, you are responsible for the father and daughter. Otherwise, you would never have imagined the consequences!
In fact, you are not ready at all..."
Shangqi looked at Uncle Cheng with a complicated expression, and then turned to look at Alvin who was smiling bitterly. He suddenly realized that Alvin was going to help him take over the responsibility that should have been his...
Lao Cheng looked at his unlucky nephew and sighed helplessly. This kid still wanted to be a man in the world, but now it seems that he is not even qualified to walk around the world.
If your heart is not hard enough, your courage is not bold enough, and your will is not strong enough, then you are still messing around? Let’s do a good job as a waiter honestly!
Alvin looked at Sam who was about to tear his uniform apart due to anxiety. He smiled bitterly and said, "Sam, do you know how to be a good father?"
Sam looked at Alvin with a confused look. He opened and closed his mouth a few times subconsciously, and then said in a firm tone with his tongue wide open: "I, I will spend a lot of time thinking about how to be a good father...
That requires patience, listening, and pretending to listen even when you can’t.
I'm not a perfect father, but I'll do my best! "
The bitter smile on Alvin's face grew wider, and he then asked: "When one day you find that even though you try your best, you still can't take good care of Lucy, what will you do?"
After hearing this, Sam turned his head sadly and looked at Lucy, who had her hands clasped and looked at him with encouraging eyes, and said with some difficulty: "I don't know..."
Lucy's sad tears instantly flowed out. She looked at Sam who was at a loss and shouted, "Sam~"
Sam clenched his fists with both hands and hit his head twice. The boss stuttered for a long time with his mouth open, then looked at Lucy and said sadly: "I can only try my best, but I really don't know. Everyone said I can't be a good father...
Sorry Lucy, sorry!
I can only try my best, I can only try my best..."
Lucy jumped off the high stool and ran to Sam, tugged on his clothes and made him squat down. While wiping his tears, she said comfortingly: "No, Sam, I am very lucky. You are not the same as someone else's father." Likewise, no one's dad can always go to the park.
Don't be sad, in my heart you are the best dad..."
Sam shed tears like a child and nodded, saying: "I know, I know, you are the best Lucy..."
As Sam held Lucy as if he were holding his own treasure, he looked at the Paxtons and said, "I'm not as good as you in many places, but there are also some places where I'm better than you..."
As he spoke, Sam looked at Alvin with a complicated expression and said nervously: "Stronger than any of you."
Alvin looked at the father and daughter and sighed with emotion, and murmured to himself: "Yes, 'love' does not require IQ. What's wrong with me? When did I start to hesitate? ?”
Glancing at the crying Annie and the complicated-looking Paxton, Alvin smiled bitterly and shook his head. It turned out that he couldn't bear to let good people down. Their kindness would make him start to examine his own actions and make him hesitate. …
"Annie~"
Alvin looked at Anne with red eyes and was about to say something, but Anne cried again and said with a choked voice: "Lucy is a good child, but I can't watch her live with Sam, otherwise she will have no future at all... …”
Before Annie finished speaking, Lucy screamed angrily at Annie, "No, Sam is the best dad..."
Annie was stunned for a moment by Lucy's scream, and then she fell into Paxton's arms and cried loudly~
Alvin collapsed and looked at Annie who seemed to be made of tears. He glanced at Paxton sympathetically and said with difficulty: "Man, if I swear that I will take good care of this father and daughter, are you willing to believe me?
I will find Sam a suitable apartment where they will be safe.
Then Lucy can go to my school, which will take her through grade 12! "
Paxton obviously didn't expect Alvin to say that. He looked at Alvin a little at a loss and stammered: "But, we swore an oath to God~
The judge will not agree to hand Lucy over to Sam..."
There was a little blond girl next to her who had been silent. At first, she just bit her finger and looked at the crying Annie stupidly. It was not until Paxton spoke that she turned to Lucy and said, "Lucy, Are you leaving? Then there will be no one to play with me, and my mother will be sad. She will cry every day when she is sad..."
Alvin watched Lucy apologetically find the little blond girl. The two girls gathered together and kept whispering. The big one covered his head and sighed a little desperately.
Thinking about it, in the end, it seems that the Paxtons paid the most and then gained nothing. Maybe their sense of responsibility will make them worried about Lucy.
For the first time, Alvin discovered that "good people" were so difficult to deal with, because he seemed unable to bear to let them down.
Looking at Paxton who kept comforting Annie, Alvin thought for a while and said seriously: "Where do you live and where do you work now?
If possible, would you mind having an idiot neighbor? He may even have a daughter with him! "
Paxton smiled a little awkwardly and said, "We have no place to live now. We rented the previous house. After the rat disaster, I guess the landlord there will no longer rent to us.
But I was working as a trader at a stockbrokerage firm on Wall Street, and I was able to find a new house pretty quickly. "
Alvin looked at the good-tempered Paxton in disbelief and said, "You don't even have your own house?"
Paxton glanced at Marco with a slightly embarrassed look and whispered: "The previous house was mortgaged to the bank because I wanted to treat Emma, and then the devil invaded. The price of the house... so I chose to give up there... …”
Alvin had the urge to take a look at Paxton's head. What kind of person would mortgage his house for someone else's child to live in his home?
Of course, losing the house was an accident, but being able to make that decision was really...
"How did someone like you get on Wall Street? How is your current job?" Alvin asked curiously.
Paxton rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "Actually, it's not bad. The boss is a good friend of my mentor at Princeton University. He treats me well..."
Alvin looked at Paxton and knew that his job might not be as good as he said.
Of course, having a regular job on Wall Street is not bad. At least it should be no problem for them to establish themselves as a middle-class person in New York.
"Do you know a guy named Jordan Beckford? He told me he's famous on Wall Street!"
Paxton was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Of course, The Wolf of Wall Street, he is the idol of all traders, and almost everyone on Wall Street has a copy of his autobiography!"
Alvin breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "He is working for me now, are you willing to change your job?
Then I will find you a good house in Hell's Kitchen, close to Manhattan, and rent it to you, of course..."
As he spoke, Alvin glanced at Sam, shook his head helplessly, and said, "But you will have one more neighbor, what do you think?
Let us take time to prove what is best for Lucy...
She does need a complete family, but it seems that she needs a father who only knows how to love her...
I am not a judge, and I have no right to decide where Lucy belongs, but I believe you are all doing it for her own good.
To be honest, your kindness makes me a little ashamed!
It's never been my style to disappoint good people...
Hell’s Kitchen is no place for kindness!
But if you decide, I will say to you, ‘Welcome to Hell’s Kitchen! ’”
