Chapter 912 The Guardian Angels Are Watching Over Her

Author: Lisa Christiana
At the castle, Anderson and Clarissa completed their preparations and were waiting for Jara.

As soon as Jara stepped into the main hall, Anderson asked him, "How did things go at Luca's place?"

Jara threw his stuff on the table and said gravely, "Just as we thought. He isn't involved in this matter. Those men were under the immediate command of headquarters."

Wearing a thin smile, Anderson added, "I received news from the men I sent out. The three spies had informed them that they were ordered to kidnap Emmeline. The order was issued by Bret, one of the elders in the Marsh family."

Jara thought furiously with his brows knitted.

"Bret Marsh?"

"Yes, that's right."

Then, Anderson placed the information that had just come in on the table and explained quietly, "Beneath the tranquil facade of the Marsh family are many complicated and competing factions."

"Our investigations reveal that everyone swears allegiance to the head of the family,

    Ever since Emmeline was rescued, Jara kept vigil by her bedside. No one could get him to leave, not even when the doctor needed to examine Emmeline. Everyone let him be as they understood how difficult it was for him to snatch Emmeline back. They tried to persuade him, telling him that Emmeline was not in danger and needed to rest. At the same time, the hour was late and he should take a rest. However, all these fell on deaf ears. The doctor left after administering medicine to her and leaving the morning dosage behind. Finally, Jara was alone with Emmeline in the room. He was overcome by emotions as he sat by her bed and held her hand. No one knew that only now he found out how precious Emmeline was to him. These two weeks, he was beside himself with fear, although he appeared calm and composed as he planned the rescue. The fear that he failed to find Emmeline, something bad happened to her, or even worse, he only found her corpse.

    When Emmeline finished the bowl of medicine, Jara summoned the servants to clear the empty bowl. Then, he sat down by the bed and asked Emmeline, "How much do you remember what happened over the past two weeks?" As soon as he mentioned this, Emmeline's face turned pale. Her eyes were full of bewilderment staring at Jara. Her adverse reaction pained Jara, and his mood darkened. He knew that she would not remember much of what had happened. One of the puzzling questions was why Emmeline was left alone during the time she was imprisoned. Emmeline said that she was not abused, and no one interrogated her. Apart from these, she could not recall anything else. She did not know why or what happened during those two weeks. Of course, Jara did not know either as he did not know what she went through. For the moment, Jara had not brought this up with anyone, not even Anderson or Clarissa. Then, there was another more important que

    To relieve stiffness, Emmeline stretched her arms above her head as she walked. As she was doing this, she replied to Clarissa, "Quite good. I don't particularly feel anything bad." Clarissa remembered what Jara told her. "The doctor mentioned it will take a few days for the residue effects of the sleeping pills to go away." "Is that so?" Emmeline thought for a moment and smiled. "Maybe. I don't feel anything now but a little drowsy, and I just want to sleep." "That's the residue effects." There were a few minutes of silence. Suddenly, Clarissa asked, "By the way, I'd like to find out from you. Were you tortured or otherwise abused when you were kidnapped? Or were you just locked up in the room all the time?" Before the rescue, Jara had explained the situation to Anderson and Clarissa. Jara wanted to discuss the rescue with Anderson and Clarissa as they were just as experienced as he was. His discussion with them would help to strengthen his re

    Jara reassured Emmeline, "You don't have to worry. Their target is the Lost Vanguard and not you. Likewise, when Clarissa was attacked, the target was not her but the Jordan and the Sapphire families." "Emmeline, I have been through hundreds of battles, and live to this age. I used to believe that I have no vulnerability. But now, I know that you are my vulnerability. Take good care of yourself, and don't expose yourself to any danger for my sake. All right?" Emmeline looked at him earnestly. Never before had she seen such a tender look in his eyes. She was still a little dazed, but inexplicably her heart was pounding away. She touched his gaunt cheeks weathered by hard work, and answered, "All right, I will." With her assurance, Jara smiled in relief. Something crossed Emmeline's mind, and she said, "Oh right. There's something I have to tell you." "What's that?" "Yunne is from the Icarus Association. I was trapped by the

    There was a small wooden table beside him. The agarwood smoldering in an incense burner filled the room with a fragrance smell. After his subordinate finished his report, the man closed the folding fan and put it away. He said impassively, "So, they divided all the Icarus Association's territory?" With a respectful bow, the subordinate replied, "Yes." Then, the subordinate asked his boss with a confused look. "Boss, we don't understand. Since you helped to destroy the Icarus Association, why don't you... " The man gave a cynical smile. His handsome face seemed to radiate an unusual glow. Then, he mused, "Am I short of money?" Hearing that, the subordinate was stunned into silence. He did not know how much money his boss had, but there was no lack. Naturally, he shook his head. Again the man asked, "Is there anything else that the Marsh family needs to prove its capability and influence?" Again the subordinate

    Coby waved his hand to dismiss Rowan and said, "You may go." Then, Rowan bowed and left. After Rowan had left, Coby sat for a while. Then, he got up and walked to the back of the house. The manor was old and designed in a bygone era. There were many rooms in the front and a big garden at the back. The garden was full of rare flowers with several ancient trees. There was also a rock formation giving an ancient aura. There was a stone path that Coby followed to a rocky outcrop in the middle of the garden. Then, he pressed against the rocky outcrop a few times. Suddenly, the rock split apart to reveal the entrance to a tunnel. He quickly walked into the tunnel. The air inside the tunnel was cool and moist, and he could feel a cool breeze blowing against his face. He followed a winding stone path that headed downwards. After a couple of minutes, he reached the end of the tunnel into a cavern. The cavern was a big stone house packe

    Aron did not know what to reply. He opened his mouth, "...." Lauren laughed out loud, "Anderson is right. Tonight you should drink more and keep quiet. When you marry this beautiful girl beside you, then you can talk." Furious, Aron downed a glass of red wine. Then, he turned to Jara and complained, "Dude, you better hurry up. You don't get married or cannot get married is up to you. These people are ganging up on us. Once you get married, I'll do the same right after you." Jara glanced at him but did not rebuke him. The atmosphere over dinner was lively and fun. This was the first time that Lauren was here. So, she was not familiar with the social customs and culture. After dinner, she clamored to go out and have fun. However, Clarissa, Aron, and the others were not keen to go out. In the end, Jameson had no choice but to accompany Lauren out. After she left, Clarissa and the others started to play cards in the living room. They played a

    Jara brushed her off with a cursory, "Oh!" Then, Anderson asked her, "Aren't you playing cards? How come you're out here? Is the card game over?" His question reminded Clarissa why she was there, and she answered, "Oh, the game is over. We're a bit hungry and ready for some snacks. Do you want something to eat? We'll ask the kitchen to cook more if you want." Anderson looked at Jameson and Jara for their opinions. For some reason, Jara was sweating profusely. While he used a towel to wipe his sweat, he answered, "I'll have a bit." Then, Jameson also nodded, "I'll have some too." Everyone had replied, so Clarissa said, "All right, I'll go and tell them." Then, she turned and went inside. However, she had hardly taken a few steps before Jara called out. "Hey, wait a minute." Hearing that, she turned and asked, "What's wrong?" With a huge smile, Jara replied, "When you go inside, ask Emmeline to come out. Just say I a

    "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
