"But what should I do next? Sebastião definitely wouldn't like this child. If he finds out about the existence of this child, maybe I can get rid of him. And I also don't have any savings, so I gave my salary and compensation for leaving my job during this period to my parents, allowing them to save for the house renovation. It's not good for me to ask them to return, and I can't find an excuse..."—However, after a brief moment of happiness, Alice realized another problem."Alice, you don't need to worry about money. You just need to relax and let the child be born." Clarice comforted her.Alice knew she had good intentions, but she had already received a lot of help from Clarice before. She had to pay the medical fees when she was in the hospital, and for the divorce, she had to pay the lawyers' fees. The money she owed in the two previous times was enough for her to raise her own child for many years."I have to hurry and find a job, no matter how hard it is, and earn it first, my c

"Julie, according to what you said, can I start preparing now?" Jessica thought for a moment before replying.What Julie had just said, publicly and secretly indicating that Olivia agreed with this method, was only because of her own image and was not easy to agree with."I think so," Julie nodded, and after hearing this, Jessica clenched her teeth, her expression becoming extremely sinister and fierce."Alright, then I'll prepare properly for it."At that moment, Clarice, who had returned to the nursery, had no idea she had been deceived. When she saw Sara sitting in her room and secretly wiping her tears, her heart ached. Walking over to her, she grabbed Bella's chubby little hands, gently wiped the tears from Sara's face, and spoke in a gentle tone."Sara, what's wrong? Who bullied you? Don't cry, Bella loves you." When Sara saw Bella in front of her and then saw Clarice comforting her like this, her originally aggrieved heart warmed for a moment, and she cried even harder."Madam,
Nicholas returned home around 9 o'clock at night and found that all the children had gone to bed, and Clarice was sitting on the bed, looking at her phone."What are you doing?" He walked to the bed and sat down beside her, reaching out and pulling her into his arms, his eyes falling on the cellphone screen in front of her.She was reading a message."Just received it. It's from my mother, and she's asking me to go to the Golden Hotel tomorrow morning," Clarice said with a strange smile."Your mother?" Nicholas realized from her look that her smile wasn't quite right. "Tell me, what happened?""I can't tell you right now. You'll find out tomorrow, and I've prepared a surprise for you," Clarice said mysteriously."A surprise?" Nicholas chuckled as he looked at her. "Alright, alright, don't worry, I'm not the weak Clarice anymore. You've seen how brave I am. Hurry up and take a shower. We'll have to wait and see a good show tomorrow," Clarice said with a smile.She didn't want to say, b
"Real Group"Around 10 in the morning, Nicholas had just finished his executive meeting and returned to his office, and his phone was ringing. Looking at the caller ID, he frowned, and Luna, who was beside him, noticed his expression and asked."What happened?""Answer it for me!" Nicholas tossed the phone back to her, and she picked it up, taking a look at the name on the phone, she immediately understood and answered the call."Hello, Miss Johnson, are you looking for Nicholas? Nicholas is in a meeting right now and doesn't have time to take your call. I'm his assistant, yes, what? You mean, Clarice? That's..." After Luna finished speaking, she covered the phone with her hand and reached for Nicholas's ear, whispering a few words into it, and upon hearing this, Nicholas's eyebrows instantly furrowed as he looked at her suspiciously."Is what you said true?" He took the phone and placed it beside his ear."Nick, this is true, after all, if it wasn't true, would I have reason to call
"Aunt, you..." Jessica never thought Olivia would actually want to give up on her. If she wasn't mistaken, what she had done was just something she approved of; at least, that's what Julie told her."Alright, Jessica, I treated you well while you were in our house, now that things have turned out this way, let's not touch on this subject anymore. Since you've returned home, I hope you won't mention this to your parents," Olivia warned her.Jessica understood that she had completely given up on her. She wasn't willing to give up; she was a worthy young lady, she was willing to let herself be deceived to flatter Nicholas, but in the end, it was she who suffered, and looking at Clarice, she was protected with great effort.Why? How could she receive Nicholas's love?!"Luna, let's go." Nicholas helped Clarice up from the bed and after instructing her, he left, and Olivia didn't want to stay any longer, so she turned around and left.Only Jessica and the man were left stunned, not knowing
"Clarice, why are you here? I was just about to call you." Alice was surprised and happy to be invited into the living room."I have good news today, so I'm bringing them to celebrate with you. I brought a lot of good food." After Clarice entered through the door, she picked up the large bags and took them to the kitchen.At this moment, Bella was sound asleep in the stroller, while Bryan was obediently guarding his sister's side, helping to push the stroller.Sara entered the kitchen to prepare dinner, and Alice pulled Clarice aside and said with a slightly happy tone."In fact, I have good news to tell you too.""What great news?" Clarice immediately asked. "Has Sebastian agreed to let you give birth?""No, it has nothing to do with Sebastian. It's something I need to do at work." Alice waved her hand and said. "You wanted to send me abroad before, right? There's a chance I might go abroad, but I'm still a bit hesitant.""What is it?" Clarice asked curiously."Kael told me that the
In the main house of the Murray family.Since Jessica left, the whole mansion had become exceptionally peaceful and calm. Olivia no longer looked at Clarice with a cold face, especially with her two sons reconciling with each other, their relationship had improved greatly, and they could even talk together occasionally.Since then, Julie never caused any trouble with her, and every time she stared at her, she would be very polite. The household staff also saw the change and treated Clarice with a completely different attitude; it was as if she was the half owner of the house.This was the day Clarice had longed for, and even though being happy wasn't easy, her heart was filled with gratitude to the heavens. At the very least, she had finally reaped what she had sown.Where there was joy, there would be sorrow.On the other hand, the Johnson Family was enveloped in shadows due to the dissatisfaction of their eldest daughter, Jessica, and even in her dreams, Jessica had never thought th
