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
Pattie paused. She gritted her teeth and cursed herself for being ignorant in heart, regretting coming here at this moment. She knew that Mr. Jordan and Mrs. Jordan were in the study. Since a handsome man and a beautiful woman stayed in a room together in the middle of the night, they must do something torrid. How could she bring them supper at this time? For Mr. Jordan, how could the supper be more attractive than Mrs. Jordan? Pattie blushed, turned around and walked in awkwardly. "Mr. Jordan, Mrs. Jordan, I came here to bring you supper." She smiled stiffly and looked at Clarissa, who was still forced by Anderson to sit on his lap. Clarissa covered her face with her hands and buried her head in Anderson's arms with her back to her, looking so shy and embarrassed. Pattie smiled more meaningfully. With a trace of relief in her eyes, she put the tray on the table next to her. Anderson didn't say anything else, but only ordered, "When I stay in t
In fact, it was because she had finally dealt with everything after having been busy for such a long period of time, and her tense nerves finally relaxed. It happened to snow yesterday. After dinner, Clarissa took Anderson out for a walk in the yard and had been in a draught for a while, but she didn't expect herself to get sick. She knew she was wrong, so she didn't dare speak any more. After the doctor dispensed and brought in the medicine, she took it obediently. Seeing that her lively face looked so weak and ill, Anderson knew that she was not feeling well and didn't say much. He asked her take a good rest at home, and ordered Pattie to take good care of her, and then went out. Clarissa lay on the bed dizzily for a long time. At noon, she finally felt better, but there a loud noise coming from downstairs. Clarissa was a little surprised. As Anderson's private mansion in Visstead, apart from servants, very few outsiders came in.
Everyone was shocked. The tea was so hot that people would get scalded by touching it, let alone be splashed with a cup of it! Everyone looked at Clarissa nervously, only to see that she had stepped aside and didn't get hurt, while the teacup fell on the opposite wall and broke into pieces. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. When they looked at Chantel again, their eyes became even unhappier. Clarissa got a little angry. The reason she respected Chantel and didn't want to argue with her was that she had raised Anderson. But this did not mean that Chantel could do whatever she wanted in front of her and aimed at her for no reason again and again. With a cold face, she said in a deep voice, "Auntie, you're already in your forties, but don't you even know that you should drink the tea after it becomes cold?" "Even a child in the kindergarten knows this, but you don't know, and you even blame me. Could't you see the white steam above t
