Clarissa then reminded her of a few more items Millie needed to be aware of. Millie took note of them and then hung up the phone. As soon as she hung up the phone, Clarissa told Anderson about it. Anderson was better at locating people in the country. When Anderson heard the news, he immediately asked David to send him his orders. Soon after, his subordinates began to take action. At this time, on the other side. Today, Marty personally selected several eligible servants for the villa. When he was about to tell Evelyn the good news, unexpectedly, he received word that she had been kidnapped. Marty was shocked, and he dashed to the police station without hesitation. It didn't take long for him to understand what had happened. His sunny mood suddenly darkened. Carrie was terrified when she saw his sullen face. "Mr. Blaine, Evelyn...will she be fine?" she asked, her voice trembling. Marty then glanced at her with no e
As he spoke, he pointed at Evelyn. Looking at him impassively, Evelyn did not make a sound as her mouth was stuffed. Forbos's expression changed. "So what you mean now is..." The man with tattooed arms put his hand on Forbos's shoulder and said with a smile, "Brother, It's not that I want to say anything, but sometimes you are too soft-hearted. The mother and daughter don't even recognize you, and are trying to divorce you, but still, you want to hold on to your relationship and don't want to let it go. Why are doing that?" Hearing the words, Evelyn almost threw up. Not willing to let go just because he reminisced the relationship? The reason why he was unwilling to let go was probably because of the money! Even though she felt that these words were hypocritical, Forbos on the other hand was very pleased to hear them. So, he laughed and said, "After all, I am a good husband, and a father to this brat. Surely, I can't be too hard on
Hearing that, she could tell that Forbos's breath quickened. Looking back at the group of people standing outside the door, he whispered to Evelyn, "You promise to keep your word. Don't lie to me!" But Evelyn sneered. "What can I lie to you about? It's not like you don't know where I live. I can't hide from you forever." As soon as she said this, Forbos was convinced as expected. As she thought of it, legally speaking, he was her adopted father, so he was eligible to ask for money from her. If she didn't give it to him, he could sue her for abandoning him. Moreover, Forbos had been controlling her mother and her over the years, so he had gotten used to it psychologically. Obviously, his guard against them was very low. However, for the sake of his own safety, he decided to leave a way out for himself. "How about this? Tell me where is your mother, and when I confirm that there is no problem, I will let you go." In an instant
It wasn't until evening that Forbos finally appeared again. This time, there was no sound outside. It seemed that everyone had fallen asleep. In truth, Evelyn was not sure whether they had fallen asleep or left. In short, it was quiet outside. Furtively, Forbos walked in with a bunch of keys in his hand. Walking over, he untied the rope on Evelyn's body. As he untied the rope, he said, "Don't make any noise later. Just follow me. The car is parked on the road not far away. We will get into the car directly after we get there." The tape on Evelyn's mouth had already been torn off. When she heard that, she was a little worried and asked, "What about those people?" Suddenly, Forbos glanced at her. The glance was deep and mysterious. For some reason, Evelyn felt a sudden chill down her spine. It was like a cold and venomous snake, slithering onto her back. Then, she heard Forbos laughed sinisterly. "I've drugged them all and
Sneering, Forbos replied, "Of course, I like the most valuable item. Do you really think I'm collecting it for fun?" With a smile, Evelyn said, "Well, it's very simple. Things like jade pendants, or paintings are quite valuable, and it's easy to carry. You can have a look by then." Suddenly, Forbos felt that today's Evelyn was a little strange. She was being too obedient. She was obedient that it made him feel slightly unreal. But it was also true that because of the current situation, Evelyn might not dare to disobey him. However, she was so active in telling him where her collection was, and even invited him to take it. She also asked him what he preferred and suggested he should take something lighter. She must be out of her mind! Looking at Evelyn again, Forbos had become more suspicious. However, it seemed that Evelyn didn't notice it at all. She was so focused on driving, as if she was just giving a casual suggestion and did
No matter what he chose, it was equivalent to losing his long-term moneymaker—Evelyn. So, if Forbos had the choice, he certainly would not choose either of them. To maintain the current status and to get some money from Evelyn from time to time was actually the most advantageous way for him. However, those people were very tough. If he didn't do as they say, they might kill him on the spot. Those people had a strong background. He couldn't afford to offend them, so he could only do as he was told. However, when he was in the factory in the afternoon, and heard from Evelyn that there were a lot of jewelry and antiques at her home, he was attracted to it at once. With so much money, how wonderful would it be if he was to have it all to himself? Back then, he was afraid to offend those people who bullied him and asked him to return the money, as he was penniless and powerless. But with such a large sum of money, they wouldn't be afraid of
How much would he get from selling so many things? The set of jewelry alone was worth tens of millions of dollars, and not to mention that there were so many calligraphy paintings here. There might be several billion here! He really made a fortune, really made a fortune! As he realized the enormous surprises and wealth, Forbos was so excited that his face turned red. Evelyn, on the other hand, was tied up in the bedroom, and she could not move her hands and feet. Only the sound of Forbos scavenging over the boxes and cabinets could be heard in another room. There was a hanging clock on the wall, ticking away. She looked up feebly, and it had been four minutes since she entered the house. Although there were a lot of things, they were all placed neatly, so it was not difficult to pack them up. A few minutes was enough! Therefore, he might not be able to make it in time. Even when she had put in so much effort and think of every pos
At the moment, Marty had no idea that Forbos had killed so many people, as he thought Evelyn was scared because she had been kidnapped. Hence, with a nod, he reached out to hold her hand to comfort her. Then, he turned to Aria and ordered coldly, "Take him away and call the police. When they arrive, ask them to lock him up first and I will deal with everything later." Upon hearing the order, Aria nodded. "Yes." With that, he escorted the group of people away. While being escorted away, Forbos wanted to say something, but Aria immediately stuffed his mouth so he couldn't speak. As Marty looked back at Evelyn again, he asked with concern, "How do you feel now? Is there any injury on your body?" Hearing that, Evelyn shook her head. "I'm fine. He didn't hurt me." Except for the discomfort caused by her hands and feet being tied up for a long time, she was not injured at all. After knowing she was fine, Marty was relieved and ord
"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
