Chapter 749 Let Her Stay

Author: Lisa Christiana
However, in front of Jara, she was at a loss for words.

In the end, she could only stamp her foot and scream in anger, "I hate you, you heartless jerk!"

After that, she ran toward the door while covering her head.

Her retreating figure could be seen storming out the door and ran into the corridor.

Once she was gone from Jara's sight, the smirk on his face gradually faded away, and he became indifferent.

Meanwhile, Uncle Poick, who was waiting outside, came in after he saw Kayla leave.

Seeing Jara sitting on the sofa, he respectfully stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Holland, Miss Burke..."

"She said that she would devote herself to me," Jara uttered faintly. With his eyes lowered, he was playing with the ring worn on his finger.

Hearing that, Uncle Poick didn't know what to say.

If he heard these words before what happened just now, he would have been thrilled.

After all, Jara was already 30 years old this year!

    In Kayla's opinion, Uncle Poick was just a butler. To put it bluntly, he was just a high-ranking servant. So, she thought even if he was offended, she didn't have to worry about it. However, she had no idea that Uncle Poick was not merely a butler in this castle. He was also Jara's only family member, relative, senior, and even... benefactor. Therefore, he owned an extremely high position in the castle and a special place in Jara's heart. When Kayla was daring enough to offend Uncle Poick, she must have never thought of how miserable her life would be in the future. Even so, Uncle Poick was a man of dignity and integrity. So, despite hating Kayla, he still maintained a distant and polite expression. "Miss Burke, what can I do for you?" Looking at him, Kayla was a little embarrassed. After all, she had just disrespected him, so she didn't think it was appropriate to ask him a favor. Nevertheless, she had no other way. Just now,

    For no reason, Jara felt a dull pain in his heart. At this moment, the night wind blew open the door to his memory, and all his heart-piercing memories were revealed. October 23rd, 2019. Four years ago, on a night with heavy downpour, a woman stood in the rain and told him that she would be released on this day four years later. By that time, she would come and find him. It had been years, and he would recall that night from time to time. Especially the woman's cold eyes and her determined look in the heavy rain. Even though she was so thin like a piece of paper that could be washed away in the rain any time, she was calm and resolute like steel that could withstand enormous heat, and a leopard that was crawling silently on the ground, waiting for an opportunity to ambush its prey. Jara closed his eyes and slowly recalled that scene. After a while, he burst out laughing. However, he didn't know whether he was laughing at her o

    The jailor didn't think too much. After all, in the past four years, Emmeline had behaved so well. In fact, she was so obedient that she didn't look like a vicious criminal at all. Instead, she was like a gentle little girl that made people want to protect her. Sometimes, the jailor would even sigh in her heart. "Look! What an obedient girl, but her life was destroyed, just like that." When comforting Emmeline, the jailor said that she was still young and her future was bright. However, the jailor knew well that Emmeline's charge as a murderer and her identity as an ex-convict would greatly affect her future. Thinking about that, the jailor could not help but sighed. After releasing the handcuffs, Emmeline returned to the cell and sat on the bed. On the other hand, the jailor locked the door and turned to leave. Once again, the cell quieted down. With her legs crossed, Emmeline sat there quietly. Her body was so thin and

    So, Kayla made up her mind last night. If there was a chance, she must come over to find Uncle Poick and apologize to him face to face. Having that thought, Kayla smiled gently. Then, she immediately replied, "Uncle Poick, I'm not here to see Mr. Holland. I'm here to see you." Upon hearing this, Uncle Poick froze. He was a little surprised. "Looking for me?" "Yes, you've heard it right," Kayla replied. After that, she wanted to hold Uncle Poick's arm, but he dodged her without batting an eyelid. At once, he took a step back, politely bowed, and said, "Miss Burke, I'm just a servant here, while you're an honored guest. So, please be self-cautious and don't make things difficult for me." Instantaneously, Kayla's hands, which were in mid-air, froze. Originally, she did not have any other intention. She just saw that Uncle Poick was old and had the urge to please him, so she subconsciously treated him like how she did with her grandpare

    "Yes, Mr. Holland." Uncle Poick quickly responded in a respectful manner. As he could feel Jara's displeasure, his heart skipped a beat. After giving his orders, Jara turned around. However, he did not return to his study. Instead, he took his coat and walked toward the main door. Stunned, Uncle Poick followed him and asked, "Are you going out?" "Yes." Jara gave a bland response and ordered, "Get someone to prepare the car. I'm heading somewhere." Hearing that, Uncle Poick stopped dead in his tracks once again before replying respectfully, "Alright." ...... A black Rolls-Royce drove out of the castle gate. Meanwhile, in a guest room at the side building of the castle. Kayla stood in front of the window. Using a pair of binoculars, she peered at the luxurious car that left. Then, she scoffed. After that, she put down the binoculars, and her fingers unconsciously tapped twice on the windowsill. Enraged, she clenched her te

    In addition, those provocations from Mr. Murray's sisters and relatives made him strongly believe that Emmeline was the reason for his family's difficult life. "I hope she would disappear from my family!" For more than once, this thought flashed across Mr. Murray's mind, but he dared not do anything to her. Until one day, he heard that a human trafficker had come to town to abduct and traffic children under ten years old. When those with children in their family heard this rumor, they felt insecure. Then, they would watch over their own children as they were afraid that there would be an accident. But for Mr. Murray, his eyes lit up after hearing this news. He thought that it was a great opportunity. And soon, he came up with a trick. One morning, Mr. Murray, who had always been strict with Emmeline, was suddenly kind to her. After approaching her, he asked if she wanted to visit the county. In the county, there was a lot of delicio

    Emmeline didn't love Mr. Murray, but before that, she thought that even if he didn't treat her well, he was still her family. However, he abandoned her, and yet, she had to go back, respect him as her father, and live under the same roof as him. Not only that, but she also had to be his dependant, which she hated to do so. Therefore, she did not agree but rather sat there silently and pursed her lips, just like a stubborn mule. At a glance, Mrs. Illington could tell what she was thinking. After all, a mother knew her daughter best. Therefore, she became anxious and tried her best to persuade Emmeline, followed by giving her righteous speech. That time, she kept talking about how a woman would suffer if she had to live by herself. After that, she mentioned that Emmeline should understand her and give Mr. Murray a chance. She also insisted that he didn't abandon her on purpose. In any case, Mrs. Illington had said a lot, but Emmeline

    Right there, she met the person whom she would never forget for the rest of her life. So, how was her first encounter with him? Now that she thought about it, she would describe it as extremely ordinary. There was no special scene, no extraordinary appearance, and even less of a unique identity and aura. That day, in the backyard, she saw a boy around eleven-year-old sitting under a grape rack while being engrossed in reading his book. Although he was a boy, he was as delicate and beautiful as a girl. His eyes were big, his eyelashes were long, and his skin was as fair as snow. That time, he was wearing a neat suit, together with a pair of leather shoes. Besides, his hair was neatly combed. Even when he was studying, he looked different from a normal child, as if he was a teenager or there was an older soul living in that tiny body. The moment Emmeline saw him, she was stunned. Just then, the young boy put down his book and raised his hea

    "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.

    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

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
