Chapter 5 Cut The Loss In Time

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
Clarissa leaned against the car window feebly. Looking at the night scene outside the window, her eyes misted with tears.

She kept thinking of Elliot, but she only felt that it was ridiculous.

Lara had bullied her so many times when her family members did not know, but she endured it in silence. She thought that Lara would let her go if she didn't fight back, but Lara became more and more arrogant.

She was not a naturally cowardly person, so she fought back when she couldn't stand Lara anymore. But Elliot thought that it was her who bullied Lara?

She was driven out of the Chapman family, and everyone in Visstead knew that she was a daughter that the Chapman family did not want. Elliot's grandmother was even more unsatisfied with her.

In order not to make things difficult for Elliot, she didn't want to appear with him in front of the public. But he thought that she refused to accompany him to socialize?

As for selling adult erotica products...

If her mother didn't die, and if the Chapman family was not selfish and partial, how could she live such a terrible life?

But Elliot thought that it was all her own fault!

Clarissa closed her eyes. She felt so melancholy and ironic.

A man's voice suddenly sounded, "Is it worth it to be sad for such a man?"

She was slightly stunned and turned around. With dizzy eyes, she saw a noble man sitting there with a straight back and a cold face.

It was only then that she remembered that she seemed to be in a man's car. The man helped her in the bar just now.

She didn't want to show her awkward and dejected face in front of others. She wiped the tears on her face, "I'm not feeling sad for him!"

Anderson raised his eyebrows and looked at her. His eyes fixed on her red but beautiful eyes.

Clarissa explained, "I didn't cry for him. I cried for myself."

For the past years which had been wasted and deceived.

Anderson nodded in agreement.

"Do you know what the best way to deal with the failure of investment is?"

"What is it?"

"Cut the loss in time."

He said these words in a low voice, which made her heart tremble.

She turned to look at him. Under the dim light, Anderson was tall and straight. The light cast a shadow on his side face, which made his facial features look more defined and noble.

She had seen good-looking men before. Elliot was one of them.

However, the man in front of her was much more handsome than Elliot.

Just like stars could not shine as brightly as the sun and the moon, the man in front of her was too charming. He was commanding and noble, just like a powerful eagle soaring in the sky.

Not to mention that he had a perfect face that was enough to make all the women scream excitedly.

She was attracted by him and an absurd idea flashed through her mind.

Staring at his handsome side face, she swallowed hard and said, "I see."

After a pause, she suddenly asked, "What do you think of selling adult erotica products?"

Anderson frowned, "It's a normal industry. It's just like other industries. I don't have any special opinions."

Clarissa smiled faintly.

At this moment, she was half drunk and half sober. In a light tone, she said with watery eyes, "I also think so."

Anderson suddenly smelled a fragrance. He tilted his head slightly and saw that she had suddenly sat up straight, and she was leaning the upper half of her body towards him.

"Do you think I'm beautiful?"

Anderson's back stiffened.

Undoubtedly, she was beautiful.

Not only was she beautiful, but she was also sexy and gorgeous.

Although she only wore a simple beige coat and a white singlet, she looked unemotional and attractive from the inside.

He suddenly thought that there were no most beautiful but only more beautiful women in the world.

He swallowed hard, but he didn't say anything.

After a while, he said uneasily, "Yeah."

Clarissa moved closer to him. She whispered in his ear and she thought that her voice was very low, "If I want to sleep with you, will you agree?"

"Puff!"

David, who was driving, couldn't help laughing.

The next second, he felt that Anderson was glaring at him with piercingly cold eyes.

He quickly stopped smiling and raised the baffle in the middle of the car.

Only then did Anderson turn his head to look at Clarissa.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said with meaningful eyes, "You have to pay the price for sleeping with me. Are you sure?"

Clarissa laughed, "Money? I have money."

As she spoke, she took out her wallet from her bag and took out all the cash.

"Count it. If it's not enough, I can transfer money to you."

Only then did Anderson realize that what she had just said was not a joke. She was serious.

He got a little nervous and rubbed the place between his eyebrows.

"Are you going to sleep with whomever saved you tonight?"

Clarissa shook her head.

She suddenly chuckled and reached out to pat his face.

"I'm not that stupid. I want to sleep with you because you are so handsome. Aren't they looking down on me? I'm going to find someone who is much better than him. I want to piss them off!"

Anderson didn't expect that her answer would be like this.

He felt a little helpless. Apparently, he didn't intend to take her words seriously.

At this moment, the car suddenly braked.

Clarissa was drunk, so she rushed forward because of her inertia. If Anderson hadn't pulled her back quickly, she would have fallen and hurt herself.

Anderson asked with his face darkened, "What's going on?"

David's voice came from in front of him, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jordan. We've arrived at Estdal Manor."

"Go back now!"

"Okay!"

The sound of the car door being closed came from the front. Anderson turned around and looked at Clarissa in his arms. When he saw that she was drunk and her beautiful face blushed, he frowned.

"Here we are. Get off the car!"

However, Clarissa did not move. She leaned against his arms and looked up at his noble face.

His face was detached and cold, but his lips were thin and sexy. As he spoke, he looked so attractive.

Clarissa was drunk and impulsive.

She put her arms around his neck and kissed his lips.

Anderson's back stiffened and he opened his eyes wide in surprise. The next second, Clarissa ended the kiss.

Clarissa giggled when she saw his stunned look.

"Your lips are so sweet."

Anderson was speechless.

Holding back the urge to throw her out of the car, he said in a low voice, "Let go of me!"

Clarissa didn't move and blinked her eyes. When she saw his handsome and cold face, her eyes suddenly glistened with tears.

"Do you also think that I am rigid, not gentle and not romantic, so you are not willing to sleep with me?"

Anderson said with his face tightened, "No."

"Then why don't you agree with me?"

She seemed to feel wronged all of a sudden. Tears kept running down her pale face, like glittering gems.

For some reason, he felt a little distressed.

Clarissa kept crying, and soon his clothes were wetted.

    He rubbed between his eyebrows helplessly. After a long time, he sighed lightly and said in a soft voice, "Let go of me and I'll take you upstairs to rest." "No." She held his neck tightly and buried her face in his chest, like a drowning man holding the last piece of driftwood. In the past six years, Elliot had never slept with her. She stupidly thought that it was because he respected and loved her. It was not until that day that she realized that he thought she was rigid and dull. In his eyes, other than her appearance, she was no different from a man. As long as she thought of this, she was left without a shred of self-esteem. As if she wanted to prove something, she hugged Anderson and kissed his soft lips again. She didn't just kiss his lips. She bit his lips and gently licked them. Her thick eyelashes trembled slightly, brushing against his face and making him itch slightly. Anderson's body stiffened all over. He couldn

    She gulped in surprise. "What? We? That's... impossible! I was drunk last night, so this document is meaningless!" Anderson looked at her with cold eyes and sneered. "When you wanted to sleep with me, you signed it. But you don't want to admit it since you've slept with me?" Clarissa was speechless. "Ha!" He sneered again with mockery. Clarissa didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long time, she said, "You were also willing to sleep with me. How can you let me take all the blame?" She thought, "I'm a woman. If he didn't agree, how could I force him to have sex with me?" Unexpectedly, in the next second, Anderson unbuttoned his shirt directly. "I knew you wouldn't admit it, so I keep the evidence." Clarissa looked at him. Anderson unbuttoned two buttons and revealed his delicate clavicles. Below the clavicles, there were so many ambiguous love-bites and scratches. It could be seen how torrid their sex was l

    At the same time, in the Chapman family. The living room was full of people, including Chloe, Gianni, Lena, Iliana and several good friends of Lara. Lara and Elliot were sitting on another sofa, and the atmosphere was a little muffled. "Lara, as far as I am concerned, you are too easy to bully! You and Elliot love each other. How can Clarissa do that so shamelessly? She knows that you are an actress, but she dared call the police to arrest you. She obviously wants to ruin your career." Iliana said. "That's right. She has just broken up with Elliot, but she flirted with a man in a bar, which showed that she was not a good woman!" One of Lara's friends said. "Lara, you suffer losses because you're a public figure. Everyone is discussing about you online now. They say that you seduced Elliot and his fiancee saw you having a love affair. They even say that you take drugs. These are all fake. You have to think of a way to solve this quickly." Lena said. "

    "How dare you!" Gianni got so angry because of her, "Tell me. Will you come back or not?" "No!" "Well! That's what you said! If your grandmother find trouble with you, don't blame me for not informing you!" Gianni felt that he really couldn't communicate with her because she was too apathetic, so he simply hung up the phone. Clarissa sneered and ignored him. She put the phone away and continued to eat the takeout food she had just ordered. Chloe sat in the dining room and saw Gianni coming in angrily, she frowned slightly. "How is it? Did you inform her? Will she come back tonight?" Gianni said with annoyance, "How can she listen to me? She is more and more impolite now. She won't come back unless I beg her to come back." Chloe's face changed. She slammed the chopsticks on the table. "How dare she!" Everyone in the dinning room was shocked. Since her husband died, Chloe had been in charge of the Chapman family. She

    Lara's face froze, and there was a hint of grievance in her eyes. "Clarissa, how can you say like this?" Lena forced a smile and said, "Clarissa, Lara is doing this out of goodwill. Why don't you two have a chat? If there's any misunderstanding between you, you can make it clear. We'll still be family in the future." "Family? Sorry! Everyone in the house can be my family, except you two." "Besides, I'm the only child of my mother. Lara is not my younger sister. Please don't try to build relationship between us, okay? Aren't you afraid that my mother will become a ghost and come to find you in the middle of the night?" "Ah!" Lara screamed because of Clarissa's cold and fierce look, and she hid in Lena's arms. At this moment, a shout came from the stairs. "Clarissa!" Clarissa looked up and saw Chloe walking downstairs with a cane. Even though she was old, she was in good spirits and her eyes were shrewd. At this moment, her face

    Clarissa's cold words did not make Elliot stop talking to her. He said seriously, "It's nice to see you here. I have something to ask you. Where did you go last night? Why didn't you answer my call?" The expression in Clarissa's eyes changed slightly. Last night, Elliot call her a few more times indeed, but she was with Anderson at that time, so she didn't hear it at all. She saw it this morning, but she didn't want to pay attention to it. No matter he wanted to care about her or scold her, it was inappropriate, because they had broken up. Thinking of this, she grabbed her hair and answered lazily, "Elliot, who do you think you are?" Elliot was stunned, "What?" "Why do I have to answer your phone when you call me?" Elliot was stunned for a long time before he finally understood what she meant. He immediately flew into a rage. "Clarissa! Don't be so ungrateful! I'm concerned about you!" "Oh? Does Lara know that you care a

    Anderson turned his head and finally looked at her face. Dressed up in the beige windbreaker, she still looked so clean and fresh, but there seemed to be a trace of sadness deep in her eyes, which was caught by his keen eyes. His eyes were a little serious, but he didn't say anything. He just nodded slightly. "Yeah, I drank a little." Clarissa forced a smile. Anderson was really good at telling lies. The smell of the alcohol was so strong. How could he only drink a little? Obviously, he had drunk a lot! However, she had no standpoint and was too embarrassed to care about him, so she pursed her lips and did not say anything. David turned around and asked her with a smile, "Miss Chapman, where do you live?" Clarissa told him a address and David searched it on the map. Then he started the car. No one spoke in the car. Clarissa put her hands on her legs with her fingers crossed and looked out of the window. Clarissa felt a l

    The next day, Clarissa arrived at the company early in the morning. As soon as she entered the office, she felt that the atmosphere was a little different. Everyone was whispering something in each other's ears. When they saw her come in, their faces changed slightly, but they all shut up at the same time, secretly glancing at her with strange eyes. Clarissa frowned and entered her office, looking steadily forward. As soon as she sat down, she used the inside telephone and called Millie to come in. When Millie came in, she looked a little nervous, and there was even a hint of sympathy in her eyes when she looked at Clarissa. Clarissa was amused. Leaning against the chair, she looked at her, "What happened? We haven't seen each other just for two days. Why are you looking at me like this?" Millie smiled awkwardly and said in a dilemma, "Miss Chapman, didn't you... receive any news in advance?" Clarissa raised her eyebrows, picked up the cu

    "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
