She agreed quickly, which surprised Anderson a little. Then he smiled. "But I have my conditions." "Tell me!" "Firstly, you're not allowed to announce our relationship before I agree. Secondly, you're not allowed to touch me without my permission!" The smile in Anderson's eyes turned cold, "Anything else?" Clarissa thought for a moment, but she couldn't think of anything else. She shook her head and said, "No." After a pause, she added, "I will tell you if I think of another condition." Anderson said in a deep voice, "So you want me to live like a monk?" Clarissa was stunned. "Mrs. Jordan, I am a normal man. If you always don't allow me to touch you, I can't sleep with you for the rest of my life." As he spoke, he got closer to her. Clarissa could only try her best to shrink in the corner. "That's not... what I mean..." The reason why she made such requests was that she subconsciously felt that their marriage would
She was in a dilemma as well. On the one hand, she didn't dare offend Anderson. On the other hand, Matthias betrayed her. No matter how she explained, she was in the wrong. She would never dare offend Anderson, so she had no choice but to sacrifice Matthias. As long as she insisted that Clarissa was in a relationship with Matthias, everything she had done would be reasonable. Besides, Anderson would think that Clarissa cheated on him. How could a powerful man like Anderson allow his woman to be disloyal to him? At that time, Clarissa would not only have something to do with Matthias, but she would also be wronged by Anderson. Chloe decided to give her a lesson at that time! Thinking of this, the expression in Chloe's eyes became colder. However, the next second, Matthias explained in a hurry, "Mr. Jordan, she's talking nonsense! I've never seen Miss Chapman before, so how could I have anything to do with her? If you don't believe me
Matthias turned around, looked at Anderson flatteringly and said anxiously, "Mr. Jordan, I really didn't know Miss Chapman before, but I heard a lot about her. So when this old woman sent people to find me, I was really moved." "Tonight, I arrived here in advance. They came to me and told me about the specific plan. They wanted me to drug Miss Chapman's wine, and they would tell everyone that I was in a relationship with her, and then they asked me to take her away in chaos." "In this way, I could sleep with her. Even if she didn't want to admit our relationship, she had no choice. The reason why they did so was that Miss Chapman's ex-boyfriend was Elliot!" "Miss Chapman's younger sister seduced Elliot and Elliot betrayed Miss Chapman. This old woman is partial. She came up with this evil plan in order to make sure that Lara could be with Elliot reasonably." "I am just used by her, and the whole plan has nothing to do with me!" "Moreover, I helped Miss Cha
Chloe calmed down and began to say it. In fact, there was nothing fresh. That night, Clarissa talked back to her in front of everyone in the Chapman family. After that, Clarissa left. Although Chole knew that Clarissa would definitely attend Lara's birthday banquet for her mother's remains. She knew Clarissa's character and knew that she would never be obedient as she expected. Therefore, she decided to be ruthless and ruin Clarissa's life completely! Everyone was well aware of what kind of person Matthias was. If Clarissa was taken away by him, it was almost impossible for her to escape! At that time, even if she wanted to explain to others, no one would believe her. As for Lara, she could continue to be Mrs. Duncan without any worries. If Lara's reputation was preserved, then her position in the entertainment circle would be preserved. This meant that she could continue to act and continue to make money. Only in this w
Clarissa seemed to have heard a joke. She looked at Elliot sarcastically, "Do you mean that it's all their fault and you didn't do anything wrong?" Elliot was slightly stunned. He took a deep breath and explained, "Last night, I didn't know that you were drugged. At that time, I did realize that there was something was wrong with you, but I didn't know you were drugged. Besides, I wanted to help you at that time, but Lara's belly suddenly ached and I couldn't leave her alone." Clarissa raised her eyebrows, "Then what happened? Did she miscarry?" Elliot went blank for a moment, but he answered, "No." "Since she didn't have a miscarriage, how could her belly ache for no reason? Besides, she looked so healthy just now, and she didn't show any sign of miscarriage!" Elliot's face turned cold. "What do you mean?" Clarissa sneered and said, "Nothing. I just feel surprised that you could even be fooled by such a poor acting skill. Elliot, i
Anderson looked at her with a faint smile, "Are you ready? Can you call me now?" Clarissa let out two awkward chuckles. Seeing that he had been waiting for her, she had to force herself no matter how unwilling she was. After trying hard for a long time, she finally said, "Honey." Her voice was so low that it almost could not be heard. Anderson raised his eyebrows and moved his ears closer to her, "What did you call me?" Clarissa gritted her teeth. She raised her voice. "Honey." "I didn't hear you clearly." Clarissa felt so speechless. She thought, "Forget it. Don't care about that much now!" She simply put her arms around his neck, suddenly leaned close to his ear and shouted, "Honey!" After that, she let go of his neck in a hurry and shrank back. Anderson was stunned. He turned around and stared at her in disbelief. Clarissa turned her head and pretended to be calm. In fact, she was in a st
Anderson led Clarissa to the servants and said in a deep voice, "Let me introduce her to you. This is my wife, Clarissa. From now on, she will be the hostess of this house. You must respect her as you respect me. Do you understand?" The servants replied in unison, "Yes!" Only then did Anderson nod his head in satisfaction. He held Clarissa's hand and walked inside. Clarissa was a little confused. She hadn't come to sense yet. Why did she went to Estdal Manor with Anderson? When she entered the bedroom, she finally came to sense and pulled him in a hurry. "Well, I... came here..." "From now on, you'll live here." Anderson looked at her seriously. Clarissa's heart skipped a beat. Only then did she really believe that he was not kidding, and he really wanted to marry her. Anderson raised his hand and called a maid. In a deep voice, he said, "Pattie, take Mrs. Jordan to get familiar with the environment here." The maid
Her whole body was tense and she felt so nervous. However, Anderson did not do anything else. He changed into pajamas and lay down next to her. Then he wrapped his arms around her body from her back and held her in his arms. Clarissa's back was stiff. The air was filled with the faint scent of pine woods, and she could smell his pleasant smell on the pillow. Moreover, she felt his hot body behind her back. She felt that she was surrounded by his pleasant smells, and she was like his prey in his arms. Fortunately, Anderson was a man of his word. Although she felt a little unaccustomed because she was held by him in this way, he didn't do anything else. She was too sleepy. At first, she forced herself to stay awake. But then, when she heard his steady breathing, she was getting sleepier and soon fell asleep. When she woke up, it was at dusk. Clarissa didn't expect that she would sleep for so long. When she woke up, she was shoc
"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
