"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
Clarissa looked at him suspiciously. "Really?" "Yes, it's true. I swear by myself." "Well, I believe in you." Anderson accompanied her for a while and fed her the liquid diet according to the doctor's advice. In the afternoon, a nurse came over to help her with breastfeeding. Naturally, it was yet another round of torture for Clarissa. Fortunately, the nurse hired by the Jordan family was all experienced. They had done it within a few minutes, so Clarissa had endured less pain in the process. After the nurse left, Old Madam Jordan came over with Gimmy and the others. She also brought over some chicken soup that she went home to make. Clarissa had been hungry for a long time. Since she had just finished the operation, she couldn't eat too much food. As soon as she smelled the soup, she couldn't help but drool. However, as soon as she drank it, her facial expression suddenly changed. She glanced at Old Madam Jordan and asked
It wasn't that Harrison didn't know how cold she was to the Hampden family, or she had a mind of her own. However, before this, no matter how many times he was rejected, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. But today, all hope was shattered. He let out a sigh. "I admit that you are right. I was tired of the internal strife before and really didn't do my best to look for you. There were even several times that I heard about you, but because I was caught up with some other businesses, I've lost you again after I was done with those." At the beginning, I felt guilty. But later, after I saw that the Jordan Family had taken good care of you, I was relieved." "As for taking charge of the Sapphire family, frankly speaking, I did have the intention of doing so. But Clarissa, you have to understand. As a man, who doesn't want to be in that position?" "Your father was too caught up in his relationships. He was not good at it nor did he like to
Anderson didn't deny it either. He just continued to smile joyfully as he nodded his head seriously. "Well, I will only bully you." He said as he played with her fingers. The warm sunshine shone through the window, making them feel relaxed from head to toes. Clarissa felt uneasy because of him. She pushed him away with a smile and said, "Don't do that. It's itchy." "Honey... Are you feeling better?" Clarissa frowned. "What do you mean by that?" He suddenly pulled her hand. "You... " Clarissa's face immediately turned red. Just when she was about to stand up, Anderson grabbed hold of her. Anderson buried his face in the nape of neck as he breathed in the fragrant scent of her hair. It was a quiet and warm moment. "Don't go. Just stay with me for a while." He said softly in a gentle tone, and the surroundings were warm and quiet. Clarissa's back stiffened, but she didn't move anymore. She hugged his shoulder to comfo
The reason why Clarissa did not directly call on Harrison to be the heir was that her understanding of Harrison was very one-sided. For some things, it was the best to let nature take its course. If you meddled too much in it, it could be counterproductive. As soon as this video was released, the whole of the League of Sapphire was in an uproar. Harrison called her at first instance, sounding anxious and angry. "Clarissa, why are you doing this? Don't you know what it means?" At that time, Clarissa had just finished her dinner and was sitting in the courtyard to help with her digestion. The baby was in the cradle beside her, sucking on the dummy, making a squeaky sound. Anderson was in the study dealing with work. The servants knew that she liked to be quiet, so they were all busy. No one came to disturb her. She leaned against the bamboo chair and smiled warmly and languidly. "What's wrong with you, Harrison. The email I sent has p
Because Evelyn was really in need of money. Thinking of her mother who was seriously ill in bed and her adoptive father who was addicted to gambling, even when her manager behind her, Marissa, was extremely excited, her eyes were still full of sorrow. Evelyn kept her family affairs a secret. Even Marissa, who had always been a close friend of hers, did not know what was going on. Seeing that Evelyn was so depressed, Marissa came behind her as she leaned against the chair and looked at Evelyn, who was looking as alluring as she could ever be in the mirror. Marissa was very puzzled and asked, "Evelyn, it's your dream to attend this party. You should be happy. How can you still..." Evelyn forced a smile and said, "Nothing. I didn't sleep well so I'm a little tired." Marissa looked at her with a pained expression and sighed. "You should be feeling really tired." She knew too well how hardworking Evelyn was. Ever since she stepped foot in the indust
It was obvious that Marty was provoking them. Jeffrey kept a straight face on right away. "Marty, what do you mean?" Marty shrugged his shoulders. "You heard me." Evelyn cursed in her heart as she felt the conflict between the two of them. What the hell was Marty doing? She did not have time to think too much and quickly stepped forward and stood between the two. She smiled weakly and said, "Young Master Marty, you're really like to joke around. What do you mean by putting on a show? Jeffrey and I are already engaged. And Jeffrey, Young Master Marty is obviously joking with you. Why did you take it seriously?" It was apparent that Evelyn had a closer relationship to Jeffrey than Marty. Jeffrey seemed to be in a better mood right away. He smiled and touched Evelyn's head. "Evelyn, you're right. I'm being too serious. Young Master Marty, I apologize to you here." Marty's eyes suddenly darkened, like storm clouds before a thunder-storm
