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
Anderson glanced at her blandly. "Oh? What did she say?" "She said that..." Gabriela hesitated, "Auntie was not as good as a child in kindergarten, and her eyes and fingers were of no use. She also said that Auntie was arrogant..." Chantel cried in grievance as she listened to that. "Anderson, how could she say those words to me? Even if she doesn't respect the Jordan family, she should be polite to me because I brought you up uneasily. But see what she did to me!" The more she talked, the more aggrieved she felt. Tears kept running down her cheeks. Gabriela quickly took a tissue to wipe her tears and comforted her, "Auntie, don't be sad. If you cry like this, Anderson will feel distressed." Chantel took the tissue and wiped her tears as she said, "Will he feel distressed about me? He has been bewitched by that b*tch. How could he care about me?" Anderson paused, and pinched the place between his eyebrows with fingers. "Aunt, tell m
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt warm behind her, and then her waist was hugged. Clarissa was taken aback. When she turned around with a scream, she saw Anderson's handsome smiling face. "Anderson?" Anderson breathed a sigh of relief, and said helplessly, "Why didn't you say anything when you came back? You scared me!" As she said this, she patted her chest. She wore a V-neck loose clothes, and Anderson could see her delicate collarbone when he lowered his head. Anderson's eyes glinted and he didn't speak. He lowered his head and kissed her lips first, and then kissed her eyebrows and eyes. Being suddenly kissed by him, Clarissa was at a loss. She was slender and she couldn't even struggle between the cooker and his body. She was forced to raise her head and could only let him kiss her. Anderson kissed her for a long time before letting go of her. He pressed his forehead against hers, and chuckled. Clarissa took a few deep
Hearing this, he looked at Lara nervously, "Lara, what the hell is going on? How could there be blood in the bathroom? It's too unlucky." Lara took a deep breath. "I don't know exactly what's going on. But since the blood appears at home, we just need to gather everyone together and investigate it." Gianni nodded. "You're right. Let's do as you say." At this moment, Chloe's old voice came from outside. "What happened? Why is everyone here?" Gianni immediately ran to her as soon as he saw her, as if the drowning person had seen the only life-saving straw. "Mom, you finally came here. Look at it. What the hell is this?" As he said, he leaded Chloe to the bathroom door. Chloe's face immediately changed when she saw the red blood all over the floor. She hit the ground with the crutch heavily, "B*stard! Who did this?" Lena explained, "We don't know yet. Lara found it in the morning when she was about to take a shower."
