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
But she didn't think too much. After all, in the circumstances, it would be best if Lara was willing to think like this and wrong herself for the time-being. Erin called Freddie soon. Freddie didn't answer her directly, but just let her ask Alvin on her own. He had lost the bet, so naturally he wouldn't intervene in the casting. Alvin would decided everything by himself. Erin had no choice but to call Alvin again. Although Alvin was not easy-going, he concerned with facts and not with individuals. Knowing that Lara wanted to play the supporting role, he only thought for a moment and then agreed. In fact, when he agreed, Freddie was next to him. He was asking Alvin to return the computer to him. Seeing Alvin hung up the phone, he asked with a faint smile, "Don't you like Lara? Why did you agree to let her play the supporting role?" Alvin was taken aback and said, "I didn't say that I didn't like her. I'm not familiar with her."
Beside her, Evelyn's expression changed when she saw Marty. Clarissa noticed the change of her expression and asked in a low voice, "Do you know him?" With a complicated face, Evelyn nodded. Clarissa didn't think too much. After all, the entertainment circle was not big, and maybe they had seen each other somewhere else before. Marty quickly saw them. He immediately pushed his way through the crowd and ran to them, as if he had seen a savior. "Clarissa!" Clarissa's expression changed. She pulled Evelyn's arm and whispered, "Hurry up and go!" They quickened their pace. But they were wearing high heels, how could they be faster than Marty? Soon, he caught up with them. Marty gasped and said, "What's wrong with you two? Didn't you hear me calling you? You walked faster and faster!" Clarissa and Evelyn turned around with fake smiles. "Mr. Blaine, what's the matter?" Marty was stunned and rolled his eyes at them angrily
"Yeah. She hasn't become famous yet, but she dares to insult you like this. If she really becomes famous, she will definitely look down on you!" "Right. You made your debut many years earlier than her, and you are her senior. She didn't respect you at all." Jennifer glanced at them. "Do you want me to deal with her?" They nodded together. Jennifer suddenly sneered. "Do you think I'm stupid? Marty is protecting her now, but I rush to make trouble for her? Do you want me to offend Marty completely or want me to be banned?" Hearing this, the expressions of those women suddenly changed. "Jennifer, that's... not what we mean." "You know what you mean!" She sneered, "I have been in this circle longer than you, so don't try to stir me up. You want me to be cannon fodder? Don't think about it!" After speaking, she snorted madly, turned around and left. ...... Clarissa and Evelyn were taken to the outdoor garden by Ma
Evelyn sighed softly, rubbed her red wrist, and checked her dress. She borrowed the dress from a sponsor in the company, so she couldn't get it dirty. Fortunately, the waiter reacted quickly. After realizing that he had hit her, he immediately turned the plate in his hand. Therefore, even if she fell to the ground, her dress didn't get dirty. She felt lucky. Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief. She was all right and was about to leave. Not far away, Marty wanted to follow her when he saw that she was leaving. However, at this moment, several businessmen walked to him. "Mr. Blaine, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I heard that you have become the president of the Blaine Group. Congratulations." "Mr. Blaine, since we meet today, you have to drink with us, right?" "Yes, we always want to find you, and we have something to talk to you, but we didn't get a chance. No matter what, you have to talk to us today." Marty
She turned to look at Evelyn, and Evelyn shook her head at her desperately. She endured her panicked tears, gritted her teeth and said, "Clarissa, it's not mine. Someone wants to frame me." Needless to say, Clarissa knew that. Obviously, Evelyn was framed. She knew Evelyn's personality well, and it was impossible for her to take drugs and ruin her own future. Moreover, how could she bring it to the party so stupidly? Clarissa took a deep breathe and said to the police officer, "I'm afraid that there is a misunderstanding. I believe that this is not hers." The police officer sneered, "Whether it's hers or not, we will know it after we go back to the police station and investigate. You can't decide it." After that, he ignored Clarissa and waved his hand, "Take her away!" "Wait!" Clarissa's expression changed, but she and Freddie couldn't stop them. Seeing that Evelyn had been taken out in handcuffs, Clarissa couldn't care about anythi
"Alright." Marty interrupted him. "I know that it was not easy for you to work. This matter has happened and the losses are irreversible. I don't blame you for this, but..." He paused slightly and looked at him with apathetic eyes, "You will find out the one who reported the false case, right?" Eddie was shocked. Logically speaking, it was not a false case, because they really searched the meth on the spot. But they needed to find out who really owned the meth. Thinking like this, Eddie heard Marty's voice the next second. "Since it's not Evelyn's, it must belong to someone else. Such a thing appeared for no reason, and you should find out who took it to the party, shouldn't you?" Eddie nodded in a hurry, "Yes. Please don't worry. We will definitely find it out." Marty nodded in satisfaction, "Can she leave now?" "Of course. Mr. Blaine, goodbye." Only then did Marty leave with Evelyn. As he expected, as soon
"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
