Chapter 723 Very Smart

Author: Lisa Christiana
Finally, Clarissa stopped laughing and asked Nora, "Do you think that if we beat up the old couple downstairs, we can escape?"

Nora blinked in surprise as the answer was obvious to her.

However, Clarissa shook her head and disagreed,

"No, you are wrong. Even if we beat them up and tie them so that they cannot come after us, we still cannot escape."

Puzzled, Nora asked, "Why not?"

Clarissa thought that it would be difficult for her to explain. Therefore, she related how in Kuddelkogh Village, Aunt Anne used children to keep surveillance on her.

Then, she further elaborated. "Do you get it now? Although we are in Uncle Jasper's hands currently, the truth is that the whole village, even the few nearby villages, are working together."

"The moment we try to escape, one yell from Uncle Jasper will bring out the entire village to help him capture us."

    Uncle Jasper and Aunt Emma were talking furtively in low voices. Clarissa could not hear what they were saying as she was standing on the other side. The small hill where Clarissa was had lots of flowers, and she was picking flowers of various colors. As Uncle Jasper watched her, he scoffed at her naivety and remarked, "What a naive little lady. She is still picking flowers under such circumstances." His words sent a chill down Aunt Emma, but she remained silent. When Clarissa had picked a big bunch of flowers, she ran over and chirped with a smile, "Uncle Jasper, Aunt Emma, don't you think these flowers are beautiful?" Uncle Jasper broke into a big smile and answered, "Yes, indeed." "Can I take them back and brighten up the living room?" Clarissa asked innocently. "Sure, it's up to you," Uncle Jasper replied. They thought that it was only natural for Clarissa, a young lady, to like flowers. Little did they know that the

    All of a sudden, Aunt Emma stopped dead in her tracks. Immediately, Clarissa, who was walking behind her, also stopped. Clarissa cried out in surprise, "What's wrong?" In response, Aunt Emma turned around and faced Clarissa. She looked perturbed and asked, "Where are you from?" It was such a simple question. Clarissa smiled and answered, "Ascijan. Do you know where that is?" Clarissa's answer appeared to surprise Aunt Emma as her expression changed. Aunt Emma knew that people from different countries in this Meshistan region shared common facial features.  When Clarissa and Nora first arrived, they spoke foreign language fluently. To further disguise her origins, Nora even spoke in the Ashax country language. This led Uncle Jasper and Aunt Emma to believe that they were from Ashax Country. Since Clarissa and Nora were good friends and were on the trip together, they were presumed to be from the same country. When Aunt Emma hea

    The man rubbed his hands in glee and replied with a grin, "No rush. I'm just here to look around." He walked around the kitchen as he spoke. After a few rounds, he walked behind the stove. "Hey, aren't you the lady Uncle Jasper rescued? What's your name?" He was talking to Nora. Reluctantly, Nora raised her head and shot him a contemptuous, sarcastic look and asked in return, "What's that got to do with you?" The man was thrown off-guard. He did not know how to react for a moment.  "What did you say?" "You can't even understand what I said, yet you want to ask for my name?" Nora retorted. The man froze. There was no mistake what she meant this time. Perhaps he had never met such a fiery personality, for it took him a while before he snickered, "Pfft. You're hot-tempered, huh. I like it." Nora glared fiercely at him again. How she wished she could hurl the fire tongs at him. But for now, she had to

    "What?" Nora was stunned and propped herself up in bed. Once again, Clarissa pushed hard to open the door, but still, the door didn't budge. It was then she knew she was not mistaken—the door was indeed locked from the outside. Frustrated and angry, she turned and walked back to the bed, ranting pensively, "Things are looking bad. I suspect they found out that we are not who we say we are." Nora was equally frustrated and whinged, "Oh no. What should we do?" Before she answered, Clarissa thought for a while. "Let's not rush. Let's see what they are up to first. If it turns out bad, then..." If it turned out bad, then it would be a head-on fight. Even when the situation turned for the worse, Nora and she must not separate at all cost. Suddenly, Clarissa remembered the piece of paper that she hid in the corner of the bed. She took it out and examined the map that she had drawn on the paper. When she was done, she folded it and p

    When Uncle Jasper finished talking, he stopped his pacing and thought for a while before he continued talking again, "Well, I'll find a solution. If it doesn't work, then I'll get a car and transport them to town. There are collection syndicates. Although the price is lower, that's not a concern now." His words made Aunt Emma turn pale and tremble with fear. However, she did not dare to face her callous husband, so she bowed her head and kept quiet. The light in the room was only put out in the middle of the night. The next morning, everything went on as usual. Clarissa and Nora did not get much sleep the night before, fearing that something might happen. It appeared that Clarissa was correct in that Uncle Jasper would not make a move as soon even though he found out that they were not who they seemed. But, some things did change. From that day on, they were not allowed to have dinner downstairs. They could not even go downstairs, m

    They used wet cloths to cover their noses and mouths. After a while, the smell faded, and followed by the door pushed open from the outside. They quickly removed the wet cloths on their faces and threw them into the corner. A row of lights lit up the room as two men sneaked in. They looked carefully at the girls in bed. Clarissa felt a light shone briefly on her face as well as a draft of breath. A low, hoarse voice sounded, "They passed out. Come on over and inspect them!" As he spoke, the sound of footsteps could be heard. The sound was more than one set of footsteps. Bright lights were trained on their faces, and Clarissa could feel the warmth of the lights on her cheeks. At the same time, her heart went cold. She heard a strange male voice say, "Well, not bad, both of them are good stuff." Uncle Jasper smiled nervously and asked, "Then, the price..." "We'll go with the price you asked! Help me carry her to the

    Meanwhile, another man who was smoking gave a smile. When he squinted, there was a familiar glow in his gaze. "What a good deal!" Hearing that, Clarissa looked at him and frowned slightly. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that the man in front of her looked somewhat familiar. Clearly, it was a face that she had never seen before, but the gesture of holding a cigarette, the smile on his face when he narrowed his eyes, and... She shook her head to get rid of these thoughts. No, that was impossible! He couldn't be here. Clarissa and Nora were not given a chance to speak. After glancing at them, the two closed the door of the carriage. Then, they went to the front seat and started the engine of the car. As they continued to drive along the rugged mountain roads, Clarissa and Nora kept quiet. Because of that, the two men did not pay much attention to them. Seeing the submissive look on Clarissa and N

    "I can't hold it any longer. My stomach really hurts. Is your brother back yet?" The man's impatient voice was heard. "He is back. He is back." As he spoke, he walked to the back of the carriage. Crack—! The door opened. Suddenly, a bright light shone through. Only then did Clarissa and Nora realize that they were still surrounded by a vast desolate field, and they couldn't make out where they were. In front of Clarissa stood the man who had talked to her just now. Looking at the ladies, he asked impatiently, "Who's going to the toilet?" Immediately, Clarissa raised her hand and said, "It's me. I need to go." She looked as if it was urgent. With a beautiful face and a slim figure, she resembled a flower with dewdrops. Previously, it was too dark, plus it was midnight, so the men only had a rough glance at the ladies with a torch. As long as they made sure Clarissa and Nora had no defect, they were fine with it. In fact,

    "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
