As Clarissa looked at the lights in the distance, her mind was in a trance. Anderson noticed that something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong? What's on your mind?" Clarissa came to herself before she shook her head with a smile. "Nothing. I just remembered that Harrison came to me over and over just to talk me into admitting my identity as a descendant of the Hampden family, but I refused him every time. Moreover, I won't even accept the jade disk he gave to me, even though he had told me that it is my father's relic because I didn't want to have anything to do with the Hampden family. Isn't it a little too heartless of me to do this?" Anderson looked at her in surprise. Clarissa smiled and said, "Do you feel surprised that this is what I thought?" Anderson didn't hide anything and nodded his head honestly. "You hated them very much before, so... it was quite unexpected." Clarissa let out a sigh. A gentle smile appe
Anderson asked in a low voice, but one could tell from his slightly hoarse voice that he had just woken up. Clarissa responded with a "Yeah". Since he had woken up, she didn't have to worry about him anymore. "I want to drink some water." "Don't move, I'll get it for you." As he spoke, Anderson turned over and soon poured a glass of warm water for her. Clarissa held the cup and took two sips. Just then, the rumbling sound of her stomach could be heard. Clarissa's face suddenly turned red. Anderson was stunned at first, then smiled and looked at her with his eyebrows raised. "Hungry?" Clarissa blushed right away and hemmed and hawed. She didn't know whether to say "Yes" or "No", In the end, she nodded her head honestly. Anderson patted her head. "Sit down. I'll get you something to eat." Clarissa was stunned. "You want to cook?" "What else can we do?" Only then did she realize that it was already 12 o'
As Clarissa ate, she asked, "Do you have any upcoming series?" Evelyn put a piece of meat into the hot pot and replied, "Yes! I have taken up a role in a spy drama a while ago. It's quite exciting." When Clarissa saw Evelyn's calm composure, something occurred to her as she paused for a moment. "Hey, don't you have some news for me recently?" She blinked at her. Hearing her words, Evelyn was stunned and felt a little confused. "What news?" "Heh! You still want to hide it from me? Do you think that I don't surf the Internet?" It was only then that Evelyn came to her senses and couldn't help but smile. "You said the one in the trending topics? It's fake!" As a young and promising actress of her generation, Evelyn had now made the big time. She had become an A-lister in the country. Following her high popularity, there were all kinds of titbits. Although most of them were just rumors and attempts by the media to boost thei
As soon as they entered, there was a large and beautiful flower garden. The flowers in this garden were all in various shapes and forms. They looked as beautiful as ever, even though it had already been autumn. Stepping on the stone road and passing through the flower garden, they saw a rock garden inside. After they passed through it, they finally arrived at the main hall. The main hall was very large, decorated in oriental style. There were a maroon color rosewood table and also chairs. A sandalwood of top notch quality was placed on the table. The smoke was curling up in the air, making the hall look like a place out of this world. Sitting on the chair was an old man with grey hair and beard. He leaned on the chair with his eyes closed, enjoying the fragrance. He heard the footsteps coming, but he didn't open his eyes. Instead, he asked calmly, "Ken, who's here?" The butler hurriedly replied, "Old Master Biden, it's Young Master Jeffrey and Young
Evelyn was at the end of the line. Jeffrey deliberately slowed down his footsteps and walked side by side with her. He asked in a low voice, "Did you know him before?" Evelyn had no expression on her face. "No, I don't." Jeffrey looked at her and did not doubt that she was lying. After all, although she was a popular actress in the industry, she should have no relation with such a figure as Harrison because of her background. In the end, Evelyn did not stay in their manor in Islington District. Since today was her birthday, her fans had organized a birthday party for her. She needed to show up. Therefore, at eight o'clock at night, Evelyn had told her assistant to pick her up from the manor. The Biden family was rather reasonable. Although no one in this family knew of her birthday today, they didn't stop her when they saw she was busy with her work. Clarissa called her at 10 o'clock at night. When she received the call, the event had jus
When Clarissa's fist landed on his body, it felt more like a tickle to him. After a while, Clarissa was tired, so she stopped and took a rest. Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, more than three months had passed. Clarissa was about to give birth to the baby. During the same month, Anderson stopped going to the office and let David handle the affairs of the company. Otherwise, he would work from home just to stay with her at home. Today was Old Master Blaine's 60th birthday. Marty had informed them a few days ago that they had to be present on time. So on this day, after Anderson and Clarissa got everything ready, they went to the Blaine family in a car. The Blaine family was one of the four great families of the Flaucford, of course, they had to make a big deal out of Old Master Blaine's birthday. The eldest son of the Blaine family and Marty had both been assigned to entertain the guests. Naturally, it was the Old Madam Blaine and M
"It's getting late. I have to go." With these words, Leonardo stood up and was about to leave. Marty grabbed hold of him. "Hey, why are you leaving? You'll be alone at home, hugging yourself and crying. Can you man up? It's just a woman. You could never progress unless you leave the past behind!" After he finished speaking, Marty winked at Anderson. "Anderson, am I right?" Unexpectedly, Anderson only replied with an expressionless face, "I don't have anyone else. I only have one." After that, he took Clarissa into his arms as if she was his prized possession. Leonardo's heart sank. How was this comforting? This was practically shoving their romance in his face! Weren't they afraid of karma for being lovey-dovey in front of someone who had just fallen out of love? Leonardo was so angry that he was about to get up with a cold face. Marty hurriedly held him down when he saw this. "It's not a life and death situation
Pattie also said, "Old Master Jordan, don't worry. Fortunately, everything has been arranged in advance. Young Master Jordan, where are the things? Have you brought them over?" Anderson said in a low voice, "I was in a hurry when we left the house, so I didn't have time to think about it. I've already sent someone back to retrieve it." "Alright, everyone, don't worry too much. Young Madam is so strong, she will definitely be able to survive. Everything will be fine." Although she said that, Pattie had been pacing back and forth in the corridor. From the looks of it, she was the one who was most worried about Clarissa. Anderson sat on the bench, holding his head. For the first time in his life, he was so nervous that even his fingertips felt tense. He was a little impatient because of Pattie. He said, "Pattie, could you stop pacing back and forth?" Pattie glanced at him and didn't dare to move anymore, so she could only sit down. After a while
"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
