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
"So, you never doubted him?" The moment Sierra heard Clarissa's question, bewilderment and confusion filled her eyes. "Why should I suspect him? He is the person who treats me the best in the world. There's no reason to doubt him." Her innocent look gave Clarissa a headache. Feeling helpless, she sighed, "Well, even so, why are you running away from me? I know that you are leaving in a hurry because of me." When Sierra heard that, she nervously interlaced her fingers, as if the lies that she had tried so hard to hide were exposed. "I... I didn't mean to hide from you. I am just afraid..." "Afraid?" Clarissa raised her brows. "What are you afraid of?" "I..." At once, she panicked, and her eyes darted around as if she was looking for something. Clarissa knew that she was looking for Robert. It seemed like Robert was her backbone right now. If he left her sight, she would lose her composure. Although Clarissa was not a psyc
What if Clarissa forced her to do something that triggered her panic attack? If that happened and he wasn't there, that would make him an unloyal friend. Therefore, regardless of being awkward, Mr. Jenkins chose to stay behind. On the other side, Clarissa and Sierra came out of the reception room after having a chat. As soon as they pushed the door open, they realized that the three men were waiting outside. Immediately, Robert stood up and rushed over to Sierra. After pulling her to a corner, he asked with concern, "How is it? Are you alright?" Currently, Sierra was much calmer than before, and she smilingly shook her head. Then, she turned to look at Clarissa and smiled gently, "Clarissa, are you free tomorrow? I heard that there are several scenic spots in the suburbs of Flaucford. Can you bring me there?" Right away, Clarissa nodded. "Sure! Let's go tomorrow." Upon seeing this, Anderson raised his brows, and a hint of a smile fl
In the past, she didn't know that Sierra was in Flaucford. Now that she knew, how could she let her mother stay in someone else's place? Thus, she held Sierra's hand and whispered, "Mom, if you don't mind, why don't you come and stay in our house for the next few days?" Upon hearing her suggestion, Sierra was a little puzzled. "Why would I live at your house?" With a smile, Clarissa said, "Well, I am your daughter after all. Since you've come to the city I live in, shouldn't you stay at my house?" Sierra was confused. Although she understood what Clarissa meant, she was a bit indecisive. On the other hand, Robert frowned. Then, he uttered, "That's not necessary. I know both of you are doing this out of goodwill, but Sierra hasn't fully recovered, and she's already used to living here. If we keep changing her environment, it'll affect her emotions negatively." Hearing that, Clarissa was dumbstruck. She didn't quite understand what he meant.
Standing at the side, Anne heard Clarissa speaking on the phone. So, she ran over and asked, "Mommy, are you going on a business trip?" Looking down at her, Clarissa said with a smile, "Yes." Then, she stretched her hand and stroked Anne's hair. Gently, she said, "Five days from now, Mommy and Daddy may be going abroad for a few days. When we are away, take care of your little brother. You can discipline him if he is naughty. If someone else bullies him, then you've to protect him. Is that all right?" Anne nodded her head furiously. "Don't worry, Mommy. I'll take care of him." Clarissa planted a kiss on her forehead and said with a grateful smile, "All right. Let's go for dinner." The family had a happy dinner together. In the evening, Clarissa returned to her room, checking out all the interesting places near Flaucford. Then, she called Millie in the office and told her to manage the company while she was away. When Anderson came out from the
