Lauren paused for a moment. She was a mother of a child. How could she be still young? However, the shop assistant's words obviously pleased Jameson. He curled his lips a little and didn't even ask about the price. Waving his hand, he said, "Pack it up!" Lauren quickly stopped him. "Don't I have to try it on?" This dress was very narrow at the waist, so she was worried that it wouldn't fit her. Jameson gazed down at her and sized her up. He said, "There's no need to do that. You can definitely fit in it." She didn't know why, but when he finished his words, Lauren's face suddenly turned red. The shop assistant asked with a smile, "Sir, are you paying by card or cash?" "By card." "Okay, sir, this way please." Jameson followed the shop assistant to pay the bill, while Lauren stood in the same spot and waited patiently. Soon, he came out with the shopping bags. There was only one dress, but there were three shopping bags. W
Next to Gilly was a man who looked extremely young. He was wearing a dark red suit and gem earrings. His peach blossom eyes seemed to be smiling when he gazed at people. The corners of his mouth were upturned with a hint of evilness. One could tell from his well-groomed appearance that he came from a rich family. He seemed to notice that Lauren was looking at him, so he turned his head slightly and looked at her. Marty turned his head and looked at Lauren too. Marty's face lit up with joy when he saw a familiar face in the crowd — Lauren. Lauren raised her glass to him from afar, gesturing to him that he could continue with his conversation with the few gentlemen by his side. At this time, Uri appeared, walking arm in arm with Claus. They immediately became the centre of attraction of the party. Uri was wearing a purple dress tonight. She was looking elegant and graceful. Uri was led by Claus though the crowd, her demeanor was neither servile nor o
After hanging up the phone, Clarissa gave Old Master Levine a call. Of course Old Master Levine was extremely worried about her. When he received her call and learned that she was safe and sound, he was finally relieved a little. Clarissa then asked about his health. Old Master Levine was able to look on the bright side of things now. After all, now that he had no more regrets in life, he could finally skip through life without a care in the world. Besides, Clarissa had married into the Jordan Family, and Old Master Levine was very satisfied with Anderson. Therefore, although he was not in good health, he was in a much more relaxed mood than before. Listening to his cheerful laughter on the phone, Clarissa couldn't help but smile too. "Grandpa, take good care of yourself. I'll go visit you once I'm back in Ascijan." "Well, okay, you too. Take good care of yourself. If Anderson dares to bully you, you can tell me. I'll fix him." Clarissa
Anderson was stunned. He looked at her indifferently and asked seriously, "Are you very familiar with each other?" Clarissa paused for a second. Recalling how Anderson had been jealous over Jara's matter, she immediately laughed dryly. "No, not at all." Anderson said indifferently, "Didn't he save you?" "Well... although that's the case, he actually wants to use me to do things for him. Hehe, who knows that I'm so talented in racing?" Clarissa smiled awkwardly. She was shrewd enough to put an end to the conversation. She looked at a modified car parked not far away and said, "There's a car over there. I'll go and see if it still works or not. If it is still working, I can still race in it." As Clarissa spoke, she walked towards the car on the other side. There were a lot of things left here along with some abandoned vehicles, because they left in a hurry. As this place was remote and everyone knew that it was the Lost Va
The woman in front of them looked young, and her face looked comely at close range. However, at this time, she was looking at Clarissa coldly without any expression on her face. The little girl next to her tilted her head and looked at her curiously. She didn't seem to understand why Clarissa had stopped them. Clarissa looked at them and felt her throat tighten. Although there were a lot of things she wanted to ask, she couldn't say a word at this time. After a while, she asked softly, "Are you Mark's family?" The other party's face tensed up, as her eyes revealed a hint of vigilance. "Do you know Mark?" "I... " Clarissa paused for a moment, and then said, "I was his friend. We used to race together before..." However, before Clarissa could finish her words, her face suddenly turned cold. "So you're someone from their side. What's wrong? You had been trying so hard to track us down back in Ascijan in order to elicit information from
Clarissa stroked her belly gently. Thinking that she would have a cute child like Anne soon, she could not help raising the corners of her mouth sweetly. "Anne, did great-grandma tell you that you're going to have a little brother or sister soon?" At the mention of this, Anne suddenly became excited. "I know. Great grandma said that the purpose of your trip this time was to pick a younger brother or sister for me. So when you come back, I will have a younger brother or sister!" As she spoke, she was also a little curious. "Mommy, where will you guys be making the selection? Can I come over and find one that I like?" Hearing her words, Clarissa was speechless for a moment. She didn't know what to say. She couldn't help laughing and said softly, "Anne, we don't get to choose. It's all in God's plan. In fact, no matter who they are, you will love them very much, right?" "Of course, that's for sure." Anne pretended to be a grown up. "I
Anderson nodded thoughtfully. Clarissa was really anxious about his condition now. She didn't want to bother to argue with him anymore, so she stood up. "Sit still and stop moving around. I'll call the doctor over." This time, Anderson did not refuse. The doctor quickly came over. After giving him a checkup, he confirmed that Anderson was having a fever because of the cold, but fortunately, the temperature was not too high. It was only 38.5 degree celsius. Because Anderson was injured now, he couldn't take medicine at random. Therefore, he only prescribed some mild antipyretics for him, and then told Clarissa to apply a cold towel to his forehead in the middle of the night to cool him down. After that, the doctor left. As a result, that night, Clarissa kept changing the towel to keep the temperature down. Anderson's heart ached for her. Afraid that she would be tired, he held her hand and said, "Let David help. Take a rest first." Clariss
As the hull swept across, the disk was shattered by the waves into pieces of golden debris. The sun was shining on her face while a gentle breeze was blowing on her face, which made her feel relaxing and comfortable at the same time. However, at this moment, a huge force washed over her from behind. Clarissa opened her eyes wide in horror as she fell down like a kite with a broken string. The golden sun pierced her eyes. She could not see clearly what was happening on the deck. She could only see a shadowy figure enveloped in golden light. "Plop", she fell heavily into the sea, as the sea water filled her ears, nose, and throat, making her choke so hard that she almost fainted. Suddenly, something grabbed her wrist. Someone lifted her waist and scooped her up with force. Clarissa forced herself to open her eyes and saw a familiar figure. The overwhelming seawater blurred his facial features, but somehow, she was still able to see the person in
"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
