Anderson said in a deep voice, "She's fine. Bring a basin of hot water to my bedroom ." Penny replied quickly, "Okay." After Anderson took Clarissa back to the bedroom, Penny brought the water. Anderson asked her to go out, and then used the hot towel to wipe Clarissa's face and hands, as well as her body. Fortunately, after his check-up, although Clarissa was unconscious, she didn't seem to have suffered any injuries. Anderson breathed a sigh of relief. Before long, David brought the doctor here. After the doctor gave Clarissa a check-up, she said that there was nothing wrong with Clarissa. Although she was drugged, the drug effect was not potent, and it was not harmful to her body. After all, the Chapman family could be regarded as a respectable family. Naturally, they wouldn't prepare potent aphrodisiac at home in ordinary times. The doctor gave Clarissa an injection of antidote, and then brought down her temperature before she l
"Alas! I can't say this, but it's really too astounding. You know what? Her family said that she is kept as a mistress by a man, and she disgraces her family. She became a man's mistress for money, being disobedient to elders and framing her younger sister. Anyway, it's so shocking." "No way! I don't think President Chapman is that kind of person." The receptionist said again, "I don't know, but I think what they said was well presented, and it might be true. They also said that they managed to find a good family for President Chapman and asked her to go back for a blind date, but President Chapman was unwilling and actually beat the man." "She is so rude!" "Yeah! It is said that her sugar daddy was so powerful that even her families dare not offend him." "Who is her sugar daddy?" "I don't know. But since he dares offend the Chapman family, he should be a very powerful man!" "Tut... This is too disgusting! How could she be like this?" "Ye
She stood up, stared at Clarissa with shrewd eyes, and said in a cold tone, "You mother died when you were young, so I can't bear to blame you all the time, but I didn't except you to become so vicious and stubborn!" "Mr. Duncan and Lara love each other. You are not only jealous of Lara, but also try to ruin their relationship. Besides, you always bully Lara, saying that she has stolen your boyfriend!" "Clarissa, how can you be so heartless? Lara has always been nice to you, and she bear disgrace and a heavy burden at home, but what about you?" "You're arrogant, wilful and unreasonable! What's more, you even beat Mr. Hemsworth and he is lying in the hospital now! What on earth do you want? " Outside the office, a group of employees who came over to listen to the gossip were a little surprised when they heard the words, and then looked at Clarissa with contempt. They thought, "President Chapman looks so gentle and reasonable on the surface, and I really di
This time, Clarissa smiled. She looked at Lara and whispered, "It's not good to be a mistress... Is this your personal experience? After all, you had been a mistress for so many years, and you should have some experience and understanding, right?" Lara was stunned. Her colour came and went. Clarissa smiled again, "But you know yourself well enough. You know that you don't deserve to be with Anderson, so you simply gave up. But you don't have worry about me! If you have the energy to worry about me, it's better to worry about yourself. After all, you have no child now, and you don't even have the only bargaining chip to marry into the Duncan family. I don't know what you should do if Elliot breaks up with you!" Hearing these words, Lara's expression changed completely. "Clarissa!" She gritted her teeth, "The reason why Elliot hasn't married me is that I am not ready yet! It's not because he is unwilling!" Clarissa shrugged her shoulders unconce
Only then did Chloe looked a little relieved, "It's good that you understand. Mr. Hemsworth is generous, so he gave you this opportunity to apologize. You should be grateful to him." Clarissa smiled mockingly. She looked at Willy who was lying on the hospital bed with a calm and gentle smile on her face, but there was no smile in her cold eyes. "Willy, I don't know why you're so shameless to think that I will definitely like you, and even marry you. Oh, maybe it is Mrs. Chapman who makes you so confident!" "After all, just now she persuaded me earnestly in the car that you are very useful to the Chapman family, and your power can make the Chapman family develop better and better in Visstead without begging others." "If it weren't for this, she wouldn't pay attention to such a rude and arrogant b*stard like you!" ''She also said that you lost your wife in your early years and lost your son in the middle of your life. Now you are alone and it seems tha
"Grandma, what should we do now?" "Let's stop making trouble with Clarissa for the time-being. I have to think about how to apologize to Willy, and let's talk about other things later." "Okay." They left the hospital. At the same time, Clarissa also got on the car and answered the phone that had been vibrating for a long time in her bag. "Are you still in the hospital? Did you handle the matter smoothly?" As soon as the phone was connected, Anderson asked her straightforwardly. Clarissa was stunned, feeling a little surprised how he knew her whereabouts. "I just came out of the hospital. Well... I handled it smoothly, I think! I guess that people in the Chapman family must be very angry now." Feeling the joy in her tone, Anderson also smiled and was finally relieved. "I will deal with Willy. As for the Chapman family, what do you want to do?" Clarissa was stunned. Just as she was about to ask him not to interfere in this
Clarissa cleared her throat and said with an apologetic smile, "I'm sorry. I've been busy recently..." "Ha!" Anderson sneered on the phone. Hearing this, Clarissa knew that this reason did not work. She changed the topic in a hurry and said, "Well, I planned to go home today. I was about to leave when you called me!" Anderson said in a mocking tone, "Is that so?" "Well... yeah!" "Ha... good. If you don't get home in half an hour, you will be at your own risk." After speaking, he actually hung up directly. Clarissa looked at the dark screen, and felt somewhat speechless. How could Anderson be so domineering! Half an hour? It took more than 20 minutes to drive to Estdal Manor from here, so she had to leave right away. She looked at the desk piled high with papers in front of her... Clarissa rubbed the place between her eyebrows tiredly and sighed. Forget it. Do it tomorrow! Thinking of this, she turned of
Clarissa frowned, subconsciously disliking his overbearing tone and the gesture. "But you are very busy in ordinary times, too! I have just been busy for such a period of time, not always busy." "I don't like it." In some respects, he was terribly domineering. He said in a deep voice, "Because I am a man, and I should be responsible for my family. That is what I should do. But you are different. You only need to be my Mrs. Jordan. If you are interested, you can develop your own hobby or career, but that's not the most important thing in your life." Hearing this, Clarissa was not convinced. "You mean that your job is very important, and my job is dispensable? Anderson, you are too macho!" "I told you a long time ago that I am not a canary that you keep in a cage, and you don't have to request me with your standards." "Yes, maybe my job is not worth mentioning in your eyes, but it is very important to me. I don't want to be an accessory to
"Hey, what are they going to talk about?" Being asked, Lauren looked at Clarissa before turning to look at the door. Then, she lowered her voice and explained, "Jameson wants to move his headquarters back to Ascijan, and recently, he has been battling with the elders of the Ethanbez Family. Most probably, he is here to ask Anderson for some advice." As everyone knew, the Jordan Group did not develop well when Carlos was managing it. After all, Carlos used to be in the military. Although he was skilled in leading his troops into battle, he didn't have much potential for doing business. Moreover, he was magnanimous, so he always put favors before money in business. If it weren't because of his rich family background, it would be hard to sustain his business. On the other hand, Anderson was different. He was a real businessman that was nimble-witted and vicious. Most of the time, when there was a crisis, he could easily turn the tables.
"I'll call you when I'm done," Clarissa added. Seeing how embarrassed she was, Anderson laughed. "Alright, be careful then. Call me when you're done." "Alright." After that, he opened the door and left. About three minutes later, Clarissa's shy voice came from inside. "I'm done." Upon hearing that, he opened the door again, tidied her clothes, and carried her out. As soon as Clarissa lay on her bed, the twins were awake. Then, Anderson carried them out and followed Clarissa's instructions to change their diapers and feed them. In fact, she couldn't feed the twins alone as they were barely a week old. So, they were fed with half breast milk and half baby fomula. Fortunately, they were in good health. When they were holding the milk bottle, their hands gripped it so tightly that sometimes Clarissa could barely take the bottle away. For the past two days, Carlos and Matteo also came. They were here to visi
After sitting down, Clarissa and Sierra held each other's hands and began to chat happily. The topics of their conversation were nothing more about children and families. Unlike Clarissa, Sierra was a housewife who didn't have much opinion. She not only had a gentle personality, but her thinking was also traditional. To her, the man had all the say. That was the reason Gianni and Chloe had the chance to ill-treat her. Last time, Clarissa didn't understand her thinking. Why didn't she fight back when her father was so mean? Even so, after having her own child, Clarissa could gradually understand Sierra's thinking. In fact, she was lucky to meet a nice man like Anderson. After they got married, she hardly suffered any injustice. However, not everyone in this world was this fortunate. In fact, most people led an extremely ordinary life with grievance and joy. Although their lives might be on the tougher side, they end
Anne rolled her eyes. "Don't you know that all newborn babies are small? You were this small when you were young." When Marf heard this, he became more shocked. Although he was intelligent, he was still young, and he was yet to learn some general knowledge. Besides, he lacked of life experience. Therefore, to him, it was surprising that there was such a small child in this world. As for Anne, she was there when Marf was newly born. So, she knew it. While clinging on the cradle, Anne and Marf kept staring at the twins with interest. Out of curiosity, Marf even poked his younger sister's face. When he felt the incredibly soft sensation of her skin, he was so surprised that he immediately withdrew his hand. With that, the baby twitched her lips in dissatisfaction. It seemed like she was going to cry, but she was too drowsy. Hence, she continued to sleep. For a while, Anne and Marf looked at her before being called over by Clariss
Staring at her, Anderson didn't know what to say. Instead, he asked with concern, "Are you hungry? I'll ask someone to prepare you some food." "Okay." Clarissa nodded. After Anderson went out, she scooted over, propped herself up, and looked at the twins in swaddling clothes. At that moment, the two plump babies were clenching their small white hands while sleeping peacefully. Looking at them, Clarissa was overjoyed, and all the negative emotions caused by the pain instantly disappeared. More than ten minutes later, Anderson returned with her food and a doctor. When the doctor saw that Clarissa was awake, he checked her wound and her condition. Once he made sure that she was fine, he called a lactation consultant to help her with breastfeeding. Then, he gave them some important advice before leaving. After that, Anderson placed the food on the small table in front of her. When Clarissa was about to sit up, he stopped he
Anderson looked at her, and after a long while, he realized that his whole body was trembling. Right away, he nodded. When Nora heard their conversation, she pursed her lips and stepped on the gas. At the same time, Clarissa directed Anderson to call their family. Well, since her amniotic fluid was broken, she would have a premature delivery no matter what because the expected delivery date was actually two weeks away. Therefore, they not only had to let Carlos and Matteo know, but they also had to ask Sierra and Robert to come over. Clarissa wanted to call Robert because he could help out if anything went wrong with her labor process. As for Sierra, her presence alone could calm Clarissa down. Besides, asking Sierra to stay by Clarissa's side was better than letting her imagination run wild at home. Anderson listened to Clarissa and did as he was told. After he called everyone, the car arrived at the hospital. Before th
Compared to her life, all the things that happened in the past were not important anymore. Now, Jara's biggest wish was to let Emmeline live healthily. As long as his wish could come true, he was willing to pay any price. After Coby's death, they found some Way Tree from his residence. However, those trees were only enough to last her for a year, and some members of the Marsh Family—who heard about Coby's death—had snatched the rest of the trees. As this tree could affect someone's life, no one would take it out again. Besides, Emmeline couldn't keep relying on Way Tree to survive. Therefore, they must try all ways to develop the antidote. However, a few months had passed, and yet, there was no progression. With that, Jara became anxious. On the other side, Clarissa's belly was getting bigger, and she was going to deliver in half a month. Because of this, Anderson rarely went to his company these days and accompanied her
With a serious look, he stared at Clarissa's belly and said, "I will make a few great robots. When they come out, I'll give the robots to them." Hearing that, Clarissa laughed, "What if your little sister doesn't like it?" Instantly, Marf's eyes widened. Because he was a big fan of robots, he thought that robot was the best gift in the world. So, it was hard for him to imagine that there were people who disliked robots. When Clarissa saw how cute he was, she giggled. On the other hand, Anderson also laughed, "It doesn't matter. If your little sister doesn't like it, you can give her a gift she likes." "As long as it is a gift from you, I believe she will like it." Only then, Marf understood what was going on and nodded. Then, with an earnest look, he promised, "Daddy, Mommy, don't worry. I will take good care of them!" When Anderson and Clarissa saw him acting like a little adult, they felt warm. Since Marf had made a pr
For a moment, Clarissa was stunned as she didn't quite understand what Lauren meant. Her love life wasn't perfect, and in the past, she even been in a relationship with a jerk like Elliot. However, since she got together with Anderson, their relationship had been smooth sailing, and they hardly encountered any setbacks. So, she thought that was how love usually worked. For Cara, Coby had actually persisted for a thousand years. This sounded like a scary and insane thing to do. However, thanks to his love for Cara, he did it. Therefore, if he didn't love her, how did he survive through those years? Seeing that Clarissa was confused, Lauren knew that Clarissa hadn't understood her words. With that, she let out a helpless sigh. "Actually, it's a good thing that you don't understand. It means that you've been living happily. If one day you understand, I will feel sorry for you," she uttered. Once again, Clarissa was dumbfoun
