There was nothing wrong with the curtains. Except for the flowers and plants, there was nothing on the balcony. To make extra certain, Gianni even sent someone to climb out of the balcony to have a look, and there were no people below the balcony. In this case, there shouldn't be anything strange. Seeing this, Lara couldn't believe it. "How could it be? I clearly heard that the woman was crying miserably all the time as if someone was seizing her neck. Why was there no one outside?" She walked to the balcony in a daze and checked in a panic. But in fact, if a woman was hidden in such a small space, she would have been discovered long ago, and it was impossible for her to hide all the time. "Is there... really a ghost..." "Nonsense! I don't believe it at all!" Gianni got angry and pulled the curtains hard. But at this moment, a small black thing suddenly fell from the ceiling. Immediately afterwards, the sound of crying sounded
"You introduced Evelyn and Lauren to me, and I think they're both very good actresses. Now there are not many actresses who can be so young, capable, and hard-working. Especially Lauren, sometimes, she is so expressive that I can't believe she is so young." Clarissa listened to him quietly without interrupting, waiting for his next words. In fact, she had guessed what he was going to say. Sure enough, she heard Freddie say, "'Destiny Fragrance' will basically be finished in two months. One of my friends is about to film a new movie, but he is a young director and has no reputation. It's not a big-budget production, but he chose Lauren and wanted her to play the leading role. I know you have a good relationship with Lauren, so can you help me persuade her? Clarissa smiled. "Director Jordan, this is a good thing. Why don't you tell Lauren yourself? Don't you meet each other on the set every day? It is easier for you to talk to her!" Freddie was in a di
In the bathroom, Lauren vomited so uncomfortably beside the toilet. Clarissa ran in. When she saw Lauren's uncomfortable look, she knew that her guess was right, and she felt distressed. She went out in a hurry, and then brought her a glass of water and tissues. She patted her on the back and asked worriedly, "How do you feel? Are you okay?" Lauren waved her hand and shook her head. After a long while, she said with difficulty, "I'm fine. It's okay." Clarissa handed her the water. Lauren took a mouthful of water and swirled it around her mouth. Then she wiped her lips with a tissue and said, "I'm sorry. I disappoint you." Clarissa immediately shook her head, "What are you talking about? The most important thing is your body now!" After a pause, she asked angrily, "Why don't you tell me about such an important thing? What is going on?" Looking at Clarissa, Lauren knew that she had guessed it, and she bit her lip. After a while,
"What's more, this is a different film from 'Destiny Fragrance', and it's not a big-budget. Those famous actresses are not willing to play in it, and those who are willing to act are not good at acting. Lauren doesn't care about the budget and only values the content of the script. Few actresses can be like her." After he finished speaking, he sighed, and Clarissa didn't know what to say. After a while, Anderson added, "Actually, Lara has been contacting me recently, saying that she wanted to participate in this play and she was also very interested in the leading role. But I don't trust her very much because of her scandals." "Although she is pretty, and she should be better than others if we dress her up, but I don't believe her. I am afraid that she will be implicated in a scandal halfway through the shoot, and the consequence will be bad." Clarissa was slightly startled. She thought for a moment and asked, "Does Lara want to play this role?" Fred
After Freddie entered the office, he walked directly to the shabby sofa opposite Alvin's desk and sat down. Alvin sat behind the desk and glanced at him without speaking. He seemed to be writing something, and he kept typing on the keyboard. Freddie didn't bother him. He sat there with his legs crossed, lit a cigarette for himself and waited for him quietly. After he waited for about half an hour, Alvin stopped, stood up and poured a glass of water. "Why did you come here? Tell me!" Hearing his unceremonious tone, Freddie was annoyed and said angrily, "Can't I come here if I have nothing to do?" Alvin sneered, "You wouldn't come to me if you have nothing to do." Freddie was speechless. They were classmates in college, and they had been good friends since then. Both of them were talented people, and they appreciated each other. Compared with Alvin, Freddie was more diplomatic, so he had been famous since he became a direc
Alvin was shocked! It was her! It was her! He liked her eyes, her temperament, and her natural overbearing manner. She was the actress he was looking for! Alvin, who was listless on the last second, was suddenly inspired and cheered up. He held the computer happily and walked around the room. Then he stared at the screen and almost danced with joy. The video was not long, and it came to en end soon. He immediately called Freddie and asked him who the woman in the computer was. Freddie was a little confused when he received the call, "Who are you referring to?" Alvin explained to him impatiently, "The woman who played the female general." Freddie was even more puzzled when he heard that. He didn't remember that there was a woman who played a female general in his computer! The only person who played the female general was Lauren. But didn't Alvin know Lauren? How could he call him to ask this question?
Alvin was taken aback, and he didn't quite understand what she meant. Clarissa smiled with embarrassment, "To be honest, I got this script from Director Jordan. I didn't pay much attention to it at first. But after reading it carefully last night, I found that it is really a rare script, and I like the leading role very much." Alvin's eyes suddenly lit up. "You mean..." "I'm very willing to act in this play, and I hope we can have a happy cooperation." Alvin was stunned. He didn't expect it to go so smoothly! He couldn't react for a while. After coming to his senses, he immediately took Clarissa's hand with joy. "Okay, thank you so much for acting in my play." Clarissa was startled by his excited look, and Alvin also realized that his reaction was too much, so he released her hand in a hurry and scratched his head awkwardly. "I have been refused for so many times before, and I didn't expect it would go so smoothly today. Miss
At this time, Erin happened to have just called Freddie. Not long after she hung up, Lara called her. She was hesitating how to tell Lara this news! Hearing Lara's words, she sighed. "The leading actress of "Cannon Fodder Strategy" has already been decided, but it's not you." "What?" Lara was shocked. It was understandable that she was surprised. After all, many people still paid attention to her. Even if she was tainted with scandals, she had huge fan bases and many people would watch the drama she acted in. She was even willing to wrong herself and act in an unknown online TV drama. If Alvin wanted to conduct remuneration, she could accept it and it was not a big deal. But he really didn't choose her! Who the hell was it? Who dare to steal the role she wanted? Lara went berserk. Erin added, "In fact, it doesn't matter. It's just an online TV drama. Since we don't get it, we choose other scripts." "It's easy for you to say th
"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
