Heavy drops of water did not stop falling from the sky Clarissa squatted down on the ground, trembling all over. The director and a group of staff immediately gathered around and asked with concern, "How are you? Are you alright?" Clarissa nodded. "Your hand is injured? Hurry up! Send Clarissa to the hospital immediately!" Clarissa had very little memory of what happened next. She didn't know what was going on either. She just felt dizzy and heavy-headed. Everyone was helping her to bandage the wound using strips of cloth, but it did not stop the wound from bleeding profusely. It didn't take long for her to lose consciousness. At the same time, on the other side. The Levine family's old mansion. Old Master Levine met Albetine. They had already run a paternity test on the two strands of hair and the results were out. This result, however, surprised everyone. Not only was Clarissa the daughter of Vivian, but al
Old Master Levine's persistence was unusual. Since he already said that, although Anderson suspected him, he knew in his heart that the possibility of this being true was very small. Firstly, for a person of a social standing like Old Master Levine, there was not necessary for him to deal with Clarissa for such a trivial thing. Besides, the ploy engaged was execrable, it didn't seem to be his doing. Thus, after a few seconds of stalemate, Anderson still made way. Old Master Levine hurried into the room. Clarissa hadn't woken up yet. Her treatment would require anesthetics and she had just had a high fever, so she was sleeping e. He looked at her from a distance and saw that half of her pale face was buried in the pillow. She looked so fragile and pitiful. His eyes could not help but turn red. "How are her injuries? Will she be fine?" Anderson's eyebrows furrowed deeper. He couldn't fathom out Old Master Levine's behavior now.
Gillee was so angry, but at this time, he could only listen to her. "Okay, I promise you. Tell me where you are now." "Before that, I have another condition!" "Another one?" Gillee felt it unbelievable. "Do you know that I am the only one who can save your life now? If people know that you are the one who was trying to murder Clarissa, what is the chance of your survival?" Lara sneered and said, "If I can't survive, you will not be able to survive too. Don't forget that you're the one who came up with this idea." As she spoke, she even played that recording at the other end of the line to remind him. Gillee couldn't bear it anymore, but afraid of the evidence in her hands, he could only hold back his anger in the end. "Fine! You win. Tell me! What's the condition?" "It's very simple. Prepare a sum of money for me, at least 50 million, and transfer it to my bank account abroad. You can't leave me impecunious while I'm abroad, can you?"
"Didn't you hear the doctor say that you can't move? If you need something, why don't you call Nora in?" Nora had been guarding outside the door, so that no one could disturb Clarissa from her sleep or Nora could take care of her if Clarissa was awake. Clarissa was a little embarrassed. "My hands are injured, not my legs. I don't need someone to help to get me a glass of water, do I?" Anderson sneered. "So you're going to use your injured hands to hold the cup, huh?" Clarissa looked embarrassed. After pausing for a few seconds, she said, "I'm sorry, I forgot about it." Anderson snorted and put her on the bed. Then he turned around and poured a glass of warm water before handing it to her. Clarissa took the cup from him and took a sipped while holding it. She looked at him and asked, "You haven't answered my question yet. Did you just come back from outside?" "Yeah." As he answered, Anderson grabbed her hand and rolled up the s
"Vivian, how nice would it be if you were here?" "You were the most considerate one since you were a child, and you were willing to compromise everything for your siblings too. You were more filial as well, but unfortunately... "Unfortunately, you met him!" "But you can rest assured that even if you are not here, I will protect your child well. From now on, as long as I am still alive, I will not allow anyone to touch even a single hair of hers on her head!" Although it was a little troublesome to deal with Gillee, with the help of Gimmy, things got a little bit easier. Old Master Levine did not hide this matter from Gimmy. Including Clarissa's and Lara's relationship with the Levine family, he told Gimmy everything. Hearing this, Gimmy was also shocked. But when he thought of the first time he saw Clarissa, he felt a sense of familiarity from her facial features. Everything then started to make sense to him. Gillee was effectively
Clarissa looked at the few simple words on the screen and couldn't help but burst into laughter. Hearing her laughter, everyone at the table turned to look at her in a daze. She quickly waved her hand. "Sorry, you guys continue to eat. I'm going to answer a call." After saying that, she took her mobile phone and walked to the corridor outside. Just as Clarissa was about to call Anderson, her phone rang and a call came through. She was slightly stunned and frowned when she looked at the unknown caller ID. Then, she pressed the button to connect. "Hello? Who's speaking on the line?" "Seven, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm back." ...... The staff of the film crew could tell that Clarissa had been in a bad mood ever since the dinner that night. She was always absent-minded while filming. Even after they wrapped up for the day, she no longer hung out with them like before. Every time she finished work, she would
After all, humans were all subjective. Sometimes, it took two to build trust in a relationship. He trusted her, even if he didn't really want her to be an actress, especially if she had to act in a romantic scene with an actor. Even though he knew it was fake, Anderson would still feel uncomfortable about it. But because it was something Clarissa was passionate about, so he chose to respect her. Since he had made such a compromise, Clarissa naturally couldn't let him down any further. Hence, she had to be careful to avoid certain things to prevent them from becoming the stumbling block of their relationship. On this day, Clarissa just finished a relatively intense fighting scene. As she was shooting a wartime drama, there were a lot of fighting scenes involved. Clarissa's hand was injured, so she could not hold the heavy sword anymore. Therefore, after a discussion, the director changed it to a prop whip. But the prop whip might seem easy and
Clarissa held back her laughter and couldn't help saying, "What kind of jealousy is this? I don't even know how he looks like. Besides, I'm not really going to accept such a valuable gift. I'm going to return it after I find out his identity." Anderson snorted again. Clarissa could only coax him. Fortunately, Anderson was not really angry. He was just a little upset by the fact that Clarissa was crazily pursued by another man. In the end, Clarissa finally managed to placate him. Anderson added, "You have no shooting tomorrow, don't you?" Clarissa was stunned and thought about it for a while. It seemed that there really wasn't any. Anderson said, "Come to the company to accompany me." Clarissa wanted to reject him right away. "It's not appropriate. You have to work..." "I have only one meeting tomorrow morning. I'll be spending the rest of the day in the office. You can stay by my side and accompany me." Clarissa hesitated for a mome
"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
