Compared to Clarissa who was embarrassed, Anderson was more than happy to kiss her for ten minutes. Hence, he laughed softly and said, "Darling, one cannot go back on one's word. We can't be a sore loser. We must admit defeat when we lose in a game." After that, he pressed the back of her head and kissed her. The crowd burst into an uproar. Clarissa blushed and wished she could find a hole to hide in. Fortunately, Anderson did not intend to put on a show for everyone to see. He just pressed his lips against hers and did not do anything further. However, this was not exciting enough for everyone present. It didn't take long for them to cry out unhappily, "Anderson and Clarissa, you're not taking this seriously. You are just pressing your lips against her. Is this even a kiss?" Anderson glared at them, but he didn't say anything. Clarissa was embarrassed. She stepped back a little and said, "You didn't say how shall we kiss. We are free to do what we w
Anderson knew that Clarissa was angry. He smiled and grabbed her hand as he gently kissed her. He said gently, "Sorry, I didn't control myself last night. I will learn my mistake next time." In the face of Clarissa's angry glare, he paused for a moment and said with a smile, "Lie down for a while. We still have time. I'll bring breakfast to you. Have a rest for a while before we leave." Clarissa snorted coldy and let him leave. At the same time, on the other side. The warm morning sunshine shone through the white gauze curtains of the ceiling-to-floor window, seeping into the room. On the luxurious carpet, clothes were scattered all over the floor, all the way from the living room to the bedroom. On the big bed in the bedroom, a pair of people were sleeping soundly. The sun was shining on the girl's fair and flawless face. If one looked at it carefully, he could see the peach fuzz on her face, just like an angel. Evelyn was awakened by the pain
But no matter how awkward it was, Marty had to be responsible for what he did. Marty sighed. "Last night, I was really drunk. I apologize to you for offending you. But you see, since we can't change what has already happened, why don't you and me make do with it?" Evelyn's eyes widened. She couldn't believe that he dared to say such a thing. "Make do? F*ck you!" She was so angry that she kicked Marty out of bed again and roared, "I won't be with you even if all the men in the world are dead. Make do? Make do on your own!" After that, she ignored him. Wrapping herself in the blanket, she jumped out of bed and stormed to the bathroom. Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Holding his painful knee, Marty stood up with a grimace. As he looked in the direction of the bathroom, his eyes darkened slightly. It didn't take long for Evelyn to finish her shower. When she rushed out, she was only wrapped in a bath
Yasmin seemed to have just seen Clarissa at this moment. "So you're Anderson's wife, right? Hello, my name is Yasmin Paisley. You can just call me Yasmin." Clarissa put on a faint smile. Her attitude was not particularly warm. "Hello." When Elicia saw this, she asked Anderson and elders of the Ethanbez Family to play chess in the back of the house while the ladies would stay at the front hall and chat. Clarissa wasn't bothered by this arrangement as most men and women did not share common topics to talk about. As for Anderson, before he left, he was afraid that she would not feel too comfortable staying behind, so he secretly gripped her hand. "Stay here for a while. I'll come back here after a few words with them." Clarissa nodded. After Anderson left, she walked over to the sofa. The sofa was already full of people. So a maid brought over a cushioned bar stool for her. Clarissa sat down on it as she quietly listened to them speak.
As she spoke, the two of them arrived at Yasmin's bedroom. Although Yasmin looked very handsome, she was still just a little girl in her early twenties. The room was painted pink, which made it look very girly. Clarissa simply took a glance at it and didn't look at it anymore. Yasmin took a new dress out and said, "Wear this. I just bought it and haven't worn it yet." Clarissa smiled faintly. "Okay, thank you." "You can get changed here. I'll go out first." "All right." After Yasmin went out, Clarissa changed her clothes in the room. After changing, when she went out again, she did not see Yasmin. She could not help but frown. For her, the Ethanbez Family was a completely unfamiliar environment, because there were many rooms in the villa and the layout was complicated too. Moreover, if she remembered correctly, the two of them had walked for a long time to get to Yasmin's room, which meant that Yasmin's room should be very far away from t
Elicia's words made Yasmin blush a little, as she stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. A lady present tried to smooth things over for her. "Yasmin is still growing up, it's good that she likes to eat." "You guys are just spoiling her!" The group of people laughed happily. Soon, the servants came to remind everyone that the meal was ready. Elicia then took everyone to the dining room. After entering the dining hall, Clarissa saw Anderson. At the same time, she also saw a young man following behind Anderson. It was a young man who was as pale as a ghost. He was about eighteen or nineteen years old and had bright eyes. He was polite and modest, and his body was thin. Due to his long-time illness, his face looked sickly pale. Sitting in a wheelchair, he was pushed forward by a servant. He seemed to be on a good term with Anderson. Sitting in a wheelchair, he smiled and said something to Anderson. Anderson was also surprisingly patient with him. He even
For example, the mistress went to pick flowers, but suddenly fell into the water, the wife was wrongly accused to be the one who pushed her into the water, and there were only two of them around. The wife couldn't come up with other explanations. Clarissa turned her head and looked around. It was true that there were only the two of them, and there was no one else around. She took a step back. "Uh, don't pick it! It looks so beautiful. It's a pity to pick it like this." "Puff—" Yasmin laughed out loud, "Clarissa, it's just a flower. There's no need to get sentimental over it." After that, seeing that Clarissa didn't want to help her, Yasmin didn't force him anymore. She leaned against the railing and stretched out her body to reach the flower. Seeing this, Clarissa touched her nose and realized that she was a bit narrow-minded. "I got it! Look, it's really a water lily. It's the first time that I've seen a water lily in August." Yasmin h
It was sent by Luke, with only one sentence. The corner of Anderson's mouth curled up coldly. His eyes were as cold as ice. Clarissa had been half-awake all the time. After a while, she dreamed that Yasmin had forcefully handed her a water lily with a strange smile on her face. After a while, she dreamed that another man in black was chasing her. She tried her best to run, only to be thrown to the ground by that man. The man took out a knife and smiled cruelly at her. "You know too much. Go to hell!" Clarissa was so frightened that she jolted awake. When she opened her eyes, the first thing that caught her eye was the complex and beautiful ceiling above her head, and then the luxurious room. There was only an orange light in the room. Anderson leaned against the head of the bed with a laptop in hand, busy dealing with something. When he saw Clarissa open her eyes, he asked softly, "You're awake?" Clarissa let out a sigh of relief, got
"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
