She paused and sighed. "She is a filial child, but it's a pity that she is a girl, and she will marry someone. She is not qualified to inherit the business of our family." Gianni's back stiffened, and he looked at her cautiously. Chloe picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and then said to Gianni, "Magnus is coming back soon, right?" Magnus Chapman, Gianni's nephew, the only child of Chloe's second son, and he was also her grandson. When Gianni was a poor university student, he married Sierra who was the daughter of the richest family in Visstead at that time, and the Chapman family climbed up the social ladder rapidly. But there were not many children in the Chapman family. In that era, a couple would give birth to four five children, but Chloe only had two sons. His younger brother Toby Chapman died early because of illness, leaving behind her pregnant wife. Sierra felt sympathetic to them, so she took them to Visstead and bought them a house
After that, she didn't want to stay at the door all the time because they couldn't find the old lady so soon. So she took Anne to the backstage lounge. It happened to be the intermission. Antonio walked out of the stage. After changing his clothes, he still had several minutes left, so he took a bottle of water to drink. Seeing that Clarissa came in with a little girl in her arms, and the girl even called her mommy, he was so shocked. "Well... Clarissa, don't tell me that this is your child. I only heard that you have got married, but when did you give birth to this child?" Clarissa glared at him, "You'd better shut up." "Hey, where did you get this little girl?" Clarissa put Anne on a chair and then sent someone to buy children's favorite drink. Then she explained, "This girl is very fated with me, and I've met her twice. Every time I met her, she got lost. Since I met her, I can't let her stay outside alone, right? I've sent someone to find h
Clarissa's heart softened immediately. When she looked at the old lady again, she found that she was looking at her with a pleading face. How could she bear to refuse them? Finally, Clarissa concealed the appointment she made in the evening, and drove them to a parent-child restaurant in the downtown area. This parent-child restaurant was of a warm style, and Clarissa came here for the first time. In addition to them, many parents brought their children to eat here. The dining tables was on one side, and the other side was decorated as a small playground. After ordering the meal, Clarissa encouraged Anne to play with the children over there because they had to wait for the meal to be served. But Anne shook her head and looked at the children playing over there with a look of disgust and alert. Clarissa found that although Anne looked very enthusiastic on the surface, she had an indifferent character. She wondered what her parents wo
"Excuse me, are you the guests of Room 6602?" The three of them were stunned. The old lady said quickly, "I... we have something urgent to do right now. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it later!" After speaking, she pulled Clarissa and Anne and ran inside. However, they were stopped by the staff again. This time, not only the staff in the hall, but also two security guards stood in front of them. Their faces all looked serious. The staff stared at the old lady and said in a deep voice, "Sorry, your room has been in arrears for two days. You said that you would renew it today, so we allowed you and your granddaughter to live here, but we couldn't contact you since this morning. If you don't pay the bill today, I'm afraid that you and your granddaughter can't live here anymore." Clarissa was surprised. She turned to look at the old lady. An embarrassed expression appeared on the old lady's face. "Well... I originally pl
Although Pattie felt sympathetic to Clarissa, she dare not to say anything in Matteo's stern eyes. It didn't take long before Anderson came back. He naturally received Clarissa's message, but he didn't think much. He thought that one of her friends came here to sleep for one night. As for who her friend was, he was not interested. However, he was completely shocked when he entered the house. In the living room, Matteo and Anne were sitting on the sofa. It was not time to go to bed yet, and Clarissa was taking a bath, so Matteo was sitting there and playing a rope game with Anne. Pattie stood by and looked at them with a smile. Anne's favorite cartoon was playing on the TV. The atmosphere was very warm and harmonious. "You…" "Oh, you must be Miss Chapman's husband! You're so handsome!" Matteo suddenly stood up from the sofa and looked at Anderson with a smiling face. Anderson was confused. Feeling so speechless, Pattie we
Looking at Anne's quiet and cute sleeping face, Clarissa's heart softened. When she put down Anne gently, Anne murmured vaguely and unconsciously hugged her hand, whispering, "Mommy..." Clarissa was slightly stunned, and she felt a stabbing pain in her heart. She felt more and more distressed for Anne, so she sat there and patted Anne's body gently with her hand. When Anne was fast asleep, she withdrew her hand, turned off the light, and left. Matteo was standing outside the door. When she saw Clarissa come out, she immediately smiled at her. "Anne has fallen asleep. Don't worry. Go to bed early." Matteo nodded, "Young girl, you are a good person." Clarissa was stunned and then smiled. A good person? She didn't think so. However, she had an inborn kindness to Anne indeed, maybe it was because Anne treated her very enthusiastically when she met her for the first time! Clarissa didn't think too much. After saying goodbye to Matt
Only then did Chantel react, and said in a hurry, "Yes, that's right. I just came to see the scenery." Matteo gave her a suspicious look, "Really? Why do I think you are lying?" Chantel was speechless. Chantel was her own biological daughter, and Matteo knew her temperament well. Seeing her her reaction, Matteo knew that she was not telling the truth. She sneered, "Chantel, did you go to find Anderson's wife?" Chantel was stunned, and she subconsciously wanted to deny it. Matteo interrupted her suddenly, "Alright, it doesn't matter if you don't tell me the truth. Anyway, I have seen his wife. She is a very good child, and I like her very much, so you are not allowed to interfere in their matters anymore, and you can't make trouble for them. Understand?" Hearing this, Chantel got so mad. "Mom, how can you say that? Did I make trouble for them? Do you know what kind of woman she is?" "Of course I know!" Clarissa was a kind and
"Ah! Don't come here!" All the lights in the room were turned on at once. Lara was hiding in Chloe's arms. Chloe patted her on the back lightly and sighed. "I really thought that there was something strange in your room. Look at it carefully. It is the curtain. You sleep without closing the window. The wind blows in and blows up the gauze curtain. The hand you mentioned is just the gauze." As Chloe said this, she asked Lara to see it herself. Lara looked at it carefully for a while, only to realize that the ghost that she had been mistaken for was really just gauze. She breathed a sigh of relief. "Did I really misjudge it?" "Maybe it was because you have been under too much psychological pressure recently." In fact, Chloe was somewhat speechless because Lara got frightened by a curtain and awoke everyone in the house in the middle of the night. But seeing Lara's pale face, she couldn't blame her. She just patted her han
