In order to thank Aidan, Lauren asked him to stay for dinner. But Aidan declined. Clarissa didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Aidan was a little abnormal recently. He used to be gentle, elegant, and high-spirited, but he always frowned and looked a little depressed these days. Clarissa saw him off, she asked with concern, "Doctor Leonard, have you been in any trouble recently? Why do I feel like you have something on your mind?" Aidan was stunned and forced a smile. "No." "Is that so?" "Yeah." He paused for a moment, suddenly thought of Natalia's pretty face and frowned slightly. Seeing that he was unwilling to say it, Clarissa couldn't ask more. After sending him to the car, she waved her hand and watched him leave. Time passed by quickly. In the blink of an eye, Joy was one hundred days old. Although Lauren didn't have many friends and relatives in Flaucford, this was a very important
Hearing this, Rick sneered, "Come on. You're just making yourself look fat by slapping your own face. Do you think I don't know the truth?" His words nailed Ray's lie. Ray's face turned a little livid and he looked a little embarrassed. Rick asked again, "Tell me! Do you really want her?" Ray hesitated for a moment, and then muttered, "Of course. But she is very stubborn and doesn't want to talk to me at all." Rick raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you want her to be obedient to you?" Ray raised his head and looked at him with puzzlement, "Sure." Rick nodded, "In this case, I'll teach you." Ray asked with joy, "What should I do?" Rick took out a pack of white powder from his pocket and put it in front of him. He whispered, "Put this in her wine later. I'm sure you will be satisfied tonight." Ray's face changed as he forced a smile and said, "Rick, no kidding. I really like her. Will she talk to me in the future if I do this to her?"
His rough hand was a bit hot, stimulating her slightly cold skin. Natalia subconsciously thought of the coquettish sound of the woman just now. She was disgusted in heart and shook off his hand with great strength. "Doctor Leonard, this is a public occasion. Please remember your identity. I am not an entertainment woman like her!" After that, she left in a hurry without looking back. Her words made the woman's face turn cold. She rushed forward and shouted, "Stop! I'm not an entertainment woman!" However, Natalia ignored her and left quickly. The woman still wanted to make a fuss, but she immediately fell silent and dared not speak anymore when she saw Aidan's gloomy face. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Doctor Leonard, I'm sorry. I just..." "That's enough!" Aidan said with an extremely angry face, "Our families are old family friends. Therefore, when you said that something bad had happened to you, I happened to be nearby so I came to ha
"Ray! What do you want to do? Don't you know that this is rape!" "Ha! So what? If you want, you can sue me after you sober up tomorrow. Dare you do that? If you sue me, I'll make this matter public. At that time, no one will marry you anymore!" "You're so... shameless!" Natalia was so angry that she raised her hand and wanted to slap him in the face. However, her wrist was grabbed by him in mid-air, and then he pressed her hand over the top of her head. Ray pressed her against the car door and kissed her recklessly. Natalia felt so disgusted as she struggled desperately. She waved her hand and then slapped him in the face. Ray felt painful and went ballistic instantly. He gave her two slaps in the face fiercely, and her cheeks swelled up. Natalia's head was buzzing, and she couldn't see anything in front of her clearly, but she could hear the sound of him gritting his teeth. "How dare you slap me? I don't believe I can't make you ob
However, before he could finish his words, Natalia suddenly approached his face and kissed his lips. Aidan's eyes widened. Her movements were unskilled and clumsy, but somewhat stubborn. With her eyelashes trembling slightly, she kissed him eagerly, just like a traveler who had been thirsty for a long time in the desert, absorbing the nutrients restlessly and hastily. Aidan only felt that his whole body was tense, and his mind suddenly went blank. Natalia was not good at kissing, and she failed to have a tongue kiss with him after trying for a long time, so she groaned and said anxiously, "I'm so uncomfortable. Oh..." Aidan's body shook violently, and he became more sensible. He quickly pushed her away and said hurriedly, "Natalia, you can't do this. Hold on, and I will send you to the institute now. There is medicine there, and you'll soon feel better." Natalia shook her head and was about to cry, "No, I don't want to go there..." As she
At this moment, Aidan was sitting at the dinning table. His heart was beating fast. He secretly thought that since he saved her last night, she might see him in a different light. Even though Aidan knew what kind of clothes she liked and her size, he still worried that the clothes he had bought for her last night didn't suit her. While he was thinking, there came the sound of footsteps. He looked up and saw Natalia coming down from the stairs. In an instant, Aidan's eyes lit up. The red sweater complemented her complexion, making her look fresh. Her slender legs were wrapped in a black slim-fit pants, which made her look petite and tender. As Aidan looked at her, he couldn't help but be mesmerized by her. Natalia noticed that he had been staring at her and did not say a word to her. Her heart tightened slightly and she asked uneasily, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with me?" Aidan finally came to his senses, looking a little embar
Natalia put on a self-mocking smile and said, "Thank you, Aidan. However, I don't think we are suitable for each other, am I right?" Aidan could not help but be stunned by her words. He was in a panic for a moment, but soon he calmed down again. "I admit that I am a dull person. If you don't mind..." "No, I'm not talking about that." "Not this?" Aidan was stunned for a moment before he thought of something and smiled. "If it's not because of this, then you don't have to worry about anything else, especially my parents. They would like anyone that I like. As for your parents, I still don't know if they would accept me. After all, compared to the Holland family, our family actually..." Natalia smiled and said, "As long as I insist, my parents shouldn't oppose it." Aidan was stunned when he heard this. He was overjoyed. "So you have agreed?" Natalia's face suddenly turned red. She pursed her lips to try her best to restrain herself, but she
Leaving Natalia's and Aidan's marriage aside, Clarissa heard about something strange a few days before the Christmas day. The missing daughter of the Levine family was suddenly found! The news had begun to spread two days ago. It was precisely because of this that the Levine's family could not be bothered to intervene in Natalia's marriage. By right, it was not surprising that the Levine family had found her as they had been looking for their missing daughter for so long. What was strange was that Clarissa knew the person they had found! Looking at the pile of information Nora had just found on the computer in front of her, Clarissa could not help but sneer. Lara was a tough nut to crack who always seemed to be able to survive in any situation. "The missing daughter of the Levine family?" "Pfft! How is that possible?" Others might not be familiar with Lara, but Clarissa was the one who knew Lara the best. Lara was not a hidden
"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
