Chantel was also stunned for a moment. Then, she carefully looked at Clarissa. Through Clarissa's serious expression, she could roughly tell that something was wrong. Therefore, she waved her hand and asked the beauticians to leave. After that, she put on a smiling face and asked, "What's the matter, Clarissa?" Being asked, Clarissa took the jade pendant out from her bag and looked at her with a stern expression. "Aunt Chantel, where did you get this jade pendant?" Chantel was shocked. Staring at the jade pendant, she felt guilty. With that, her eyes flashed. "Oh... I bought it from the jewelry department, of course. But why are you holding it? I gave this to Anne." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to grab the jade pendant, but Clarissa nimbly avoided it. Clarissa didn't want to waste much time on Chantel, so she went straight to the point. "Which jewelry department? Take me there." Upon hearing that, Chantel came to a reali
Indeed, fate was a strange thing. Not long ago, he mentioned that he didn't know when he would see Chantel again; moments later, she was here. Right away, he enthusiastically welcomed her. "Welcome, Miss Jordan. Please come in." Unexpectedly, Chantel looked displeased today. As Mr. Jenkins had great life experiences, he was shrewd, and it took him quick enough to notice that she was not alone today. However, this time, instead of her young boyfriend, she brought a young and beautiful woman. The woman was dressed in a casual suit. Regardless of her exquisite and stunning facial features, her eyes were sharp. At first glance, he could tell that she was tempered in an elite surrounding. After studying Clarissa, Mr. Jenkins relaxed his eyebrows and smiled. "Miss Jordan, are you here to discuss the cooperation?" Chantel rolled her eyes. "Of course. Otherwise, why would I come here then?" After saying that, she paused and turned to introd
Clarissa didn't say her thoughts out loud. After all, she was not familiar with Mr. Jenkins, and she did not know what kind of person he was. Besides, she couldn't rely on Chantel's information because Chantel couldn't even tell if the people she knew were good or bad. Thinking of this, Clarissa replied, "Since this jade pendant belongs to her, please arrange a meeting for us so that I can personally return it to her." Mr. Jenkins nodded. Although he felt that Clarissa was a bit strange, he didn't think much about it. Instantaneously, he called Sierra to explain this matter. On the other side, when Sierra just arrived home, she received Mr. Jenkins' call. Knowing that he had found the jade pendant, she was pleasantly surprised. "Really? That's fast!" "Yes. She is now in the reception room, waiting to pass the pendant to you personally. So, you may come over with Robert now." Excited, Sierra nodded profusely. "Sure, I'll
Clarissa asked in return, "Not in a good health?" Then, she lowered her gaze to Sierra, who was hiding behind Robert. Meanwhile, Sierra was grabbing Robert's clothes while hiding behind him and looking at Clarissa with fear. Suddenly, Clarissa laughed. She laughed in an ironic and sad way. "Are you... afraid of me?" Sierra didn't say anything. As she stared into Clarissa's eyes, she grew more and more terrified. At the same time, Robert looked uneasy. He kept Sierra closely to his back as if Clarissa would hurt her out of the blue. Seeing this, Chantel went forward with embarrassment and tried to pull Clarissa back. "Cut it out, Clarissa. We're here for business..." "Shut up!" All of a sudden, Clarissa let out a furious roar. Chantel was dumbstruck. For so many years, although there were many conflicts between her and Clarissa, this was the first time Clarissa publicly yelled at her. Hence, Chantel's te
Finally, one day, Sierra's detective brought her a piece of news. According to the detective, Gianni had gone to Lena's villa. So, he urged Sierra to bring a camera there and capture the proof of Gianni having an affair. Right away, she drove there. At first, it was a smooth journey. However, as soon as her car went on the overpass, it lost control, crashed through the barrier, and fell to the bottom of the bridge. In fact, the river beneath the overpass was the most torrential and dangerous in Visstead. Moreover, it was flood season, and the tide was rising. If the car crashed into the river, she would have low chances to survive. In the end, the car crashed, and she was gone. As for what happened after that, Clarissa knew it well. After Robert told these, he explained, "We only found out later that Gianni bribed the private detective. He was also the one who tempered the car to create an illusion of an accident." Hearing that, Cha
In fact, that sadness in her was overwhelming, as if someone had taken away the most important thing from her heart. Noticing that Sierra was gloomy, Robert asked with concern, "Sierra, are you alright?" Upon hearing his voice, she shook her head and answered with a soft voice, "I'm tired too, Robert. Let's go back and rest." Robert nodded. Seeing this, Mr. Jenkins immediately took the jade pendant from the table, handed it to her, and smiled. "Have a good rest in the manor. We shall talk about other things later." After Robert responded with a nod, he held Sierra and left with her. ...... Today, Anderson worked overtime and had meetings the whole day. By the time he reached home, it was already nine o'clock at night. As his children had school tomorrow, they had gone to bed. After entering his house, he changed his shoes. However, he didn't see Clarissa in the living room. Instead, he saw Pattie, who was cleaning the living room al
"You can be mad, but besides being angry, aren't you supposed to be happy for her too? After all, she is now living a peaceful and happy life that you've always prayed for her to live in." Upon hearing his words, Clarissa stared at him blankly. After a while, she broke into a smile. "Well, you're right." Lovingly, Anderson caressed her head. "So, can you tell me what's going on?" She contemplated before explaining to him what had happened today. After listening to her explanation, Anderson was bewildered. For a while, he was quiet before he said, "So, what are you going to do now?" Clarissa shook her head. "I have no idea. She doesn't remember anything now, and she doesn't know me. So, I don't know how to tell her." "Don't worry." Anderson consoled her. "Those past incidents have deeply hurt her, so, understandably, she isn't willing to recall. Luckily, she's still alive, and destiny has brought you to her once again. No matter what happe
After listening to what Mr. Jenkins said, Clarissa nodded. "So, is this how she was when you first met her?" Mr. Jenkins furrowed his brows and sighed, "Yes. Since the first time I met her, I felt that she was different from ordinary people. Although she was full of kindness, she was also sensitive and easily frightened. That time, I suspected that she had a trauma." Then, he smiled awkwardly and added, "But of course, this is her private affairs, so I didn't ask nor pay much attention to it. Only through yesterday's incident, I found out the actual reason." For a moment, Clarissa was silent. "Actually, I have a presumptuous request. Hopefully, you can agree to it." "Please go ahead." "Although I am her daughter, she doesn't remember me now, so she isn't comfortable with my presence. However, I am still worried about her. Yesterday, I saw her condition was unusual, and I would like to find a doctor to give her a thorough check-up." "But o
