Only then did Old Madam Jordan realize that she had overreacted and frightened Anne.

She quickly held back her anger and said softly, "No, I'm not angry. I'm just worried about you. Our little angel is so cute and obedient, yet there are still vicious people out there who want to hurt you. Don't worry, I'll definitely find the culprit who tried to harm you and won't let her off easily!"

Anne didn't quite understand, but she was relieved after she found out that Old Madam Jordan wasn't angry with her.

Clarissa frowned.

"Anne, are you sure it was someone who pushed you down just now?"

Anne opened her eyes wide in bewilderment, looked at her before looking at Anderson, who was standing next to her, frowning.

Finally, she shook his head.

"I'm not sure."

Although Anne was still young, she knew that she shouldn't wrong others at will.

Therefore, she just told them truthfully, "At that time, I just felt that I couldn't stand firm under my

    Gabriela's expression darkened. "Are you pitying me?" Clarissa raised her eyebrows. "If I said no, would you believe it?" "Of course not!" Gabriela quickly took a step back away from her after she had done tying the string for Clarissa. She said coldly, "In the past, I could still say that I am the only daughter of the Levine family. But I can't say the same anymore. " "Originally, the Levine family adopted me just to make up for the regret of the loss of their child. But now that Lara is back, I don't think I have any use now. I don't even know what I am to the Levine family anymore now. If you want to see me make a fool of myself, I can understand, because if it was you who was reduced to this kind of circumstances, I'll be celebrating. But this does not mean that everyone can laugh at me and I can just simply find someone that I don't like to marry." Clarissa tidied up her clothes and turned to look at her. "I'm not laughing at y

    Clarissa once saw a "e on a book. "When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." Therefore, the real culprit would be Lara! Although Clarissa didn't understand why Lara would do something to a child on such an occasion. However, she understood that other than Lara, there was no one else who bore any ill will against her and Anne. What's more, if she remembered correctly, Anne suddenly became nervous as soon as she saw Lara. She then told Clarissa that she needed to go to the bathroom. All these led to the conclusion that it was Lara's doing. Clarissa would not be bothered if Lara was coming after her. After all, it was all between them adults. There was nothing to do with right or wrong, but taking sides. But Anne was different. She was just a child. How could Lara be so sick as to lay a finger on a child? This was totally unacceptable to Clarissa! Gabrie

    Old Master Levine had his own reasons for making such a big deal out of this incident. At present, the relationship between the four great families was very complicated. Every little action by any of them could cause a chain reaction. Although the Levine family had decided to unite with the Holland family by the ties of marriage, it didn't mean that they wanted to fall out with the Jordan family. It would be the best for the Levine family to stay neutral and stable without getting on the Jordan family's bad side.   As everyone knew how serious the incident was, they had no objection to Old Master Levine's request. There were even a few people, who wanted to curry favor with the Jordan Family, enthusiastically volunteered to assist in the search. Soon, half an hour had passed. The outcome of the search was nobody had a remote-controlled toy or anything similar in their possession. Clarissa stood by and watched them coldly without saying a

    "Miss Lara, please save me! I was wronged! Miss Lara, please save me!" At this critical moment, Maggie rushed to Lara, trying to ask her for help. However, before she could get close to Lara, Maggie was dragged away from Lara. Seeing this, Lara looked disconcerting, as if she couldn't bear to see Maggie being treated this way. "Grandpa, maybe Maggie was not thinking straight at that moment, or..." "Don't beg for mercy for her!" Old Master Levine interrupted her words and said angrily, "There is no place for a person like her, who would be ruthless enough to lay a finger on a six years old child. Our family will never cover up for such a sinner!" When Maggie heard this, she started to cry in despair. Lara sighed. She said softly, "I'm sorry, but I can't help you. You... You'd better pray for yourself." As Lara spoke, she turned her head to the side. Someone in the crowd said sarcastically, "What a vicious woman. Why did M

    Old Master Levine said in a deep voice, "Clarissa, this butterfly toy was found in her room. Isn't it just a proof that the murderer is her? As for motive, it doesn't matter if she refuses to say it now. When she suffers a little later and knows that it's useless to quibble, she will naturally spill it out." Clarissa frowned. She didn't expect that Old Master Levine was a person who would make decisions arbitrarily.  Clarissa shook her head and said in a deep voice, "No, you're wrong. Although this butterfly toy was found in Maggie's room, it doesn't mean that it belongs to her." As soon as she said that, everyone was confused. They all looked at her with confusion and didn't quite understand what she meant. Gillee sneered and said, "If that doesn't prove that she is the culprit, then what can?" "Of course, we have to look for more detailed evidence!" Clarissa held up the butterfly toy and showed to everyone. She said loudly, "Look at it

    Lara was crying loud. But among all the guests present, except for Old Master Levine, no one sympathized with her. They were all looking at her in disdain.  After all, Lara was the one who was persuading the maid that she should correct her mistakes and be brave enough to confess them. "And she even pretended to plead mercy for Maggie to win a good impression on herself." It would be horrifying if Lara were to successfully fool everyone and no one had found out the truth. As a result, everyone started to express their contempt for Lara. Anderson had long known the truth. When Clarissa spoke up for Maggie, he had roughly guessed who the real culprit was. However, since there was Lara who stood up for Maggie, he didn't have to chime in anymore. Old Master Jordan and Old Madam Jordan were very surprised. After listening to the truth, they were both shocked and angry. They couldn't wait to tear Lara into pieces. After all, t

    "Since you trust Lara so much that you don't think that she will do something to harm others deliberately, shouldn't you let the criminal justice system intervene and find out the truth, to prove her innocence?" Old Master Levine was suddenly at loss of words. There were also a few guests on the side, who appeared to be enjoying the show. "The Jordan Family and the Levine family seemed to be going head-to-head with each other." "Only because of a child? Or is there something else?" At this moment, Old Master Levine's expression suddenly changed. He held his chest as he gasped rapidly. His face suddenly turned red, as if he couldn't breathe. When all of the Levine family saw this, their faces suddenly changed as they all rushed over at once. "Old Master Levine!" "Dad!"  "Grandfather!" "Quick, call the doctor!" Fortunately, the doctor of the Levine family was always standing by. He did not leave immediately after see

    "So, today, I just want Lara to learn her lessons. If she makes a mistake, she has to admit it. If she doesn't want to lower herself, she'd better not make such a mistake. Am I right?" Gimmy was speechless for a moment. After deliberating over her words, Gimmy felt that they sounded quite reasonable. As a result, he did not say anything further. Clarissa smiled as she looked at Lara. "So, now, please start to apologize!" Lara's face turned from pale then livid. Looking at Clarissa's smug smile, she couldn't wait to charge forward and tear her apart. She bit her lower lip and turned to look at Old Master Levine in humiliation. But she saw that Old Master Levine's face was livid and tense. He didn't even want to look at her. Lara's heart was pounding. She looked at Gillee again. He nodded slightly to her. That was when Lara knew there was no turning back. Although Lara was extremely reluctant, she could only step forward a

    "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.

    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
