Chapter 22 Lie To Her
Madison was stunned, and Chloe's expression changed.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't..."
Clarissa interrupted her directly, "Grandma, I've broken up with Elliot because of a personality clash, so you don't have to worry about our business anymore."
Madam frowned and looked at Chloe with suspicion.
"Clarissa, did she ask you to say these words?"
Clarissa just smiled and didn't say anything. She didn't say yes or no.
Chloe got so annoyed, "Clarissa! What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ask you to say something like this? It was you who insisted on coming over and explaining to Mrs. Richardson, and you even said that only in this way could she forgive you. Have you forgotten?"
Clarissa smiled mockingly and said, "Oh? I don't know what mistake I've made. Why do I have to come and beg for my grandma's forgiveness?"
At this time, Lara held Elliot's arm and walked to them.
She stood by Lena's side and looked at Clarissa with an aggrieved expression.
"Clarissa, don't be stubborn and reluctant to admit your mistakes. Who doesn't know about the things between you and Matthias Neal? We don't want to ruin your reputation and want to keep it a secret. But Mrs. Richardson is so good to you. How can you lie to her?"
Clarissa frowned, and she suddenly had an ominous presentiment.
"Matthias? Who is he?"
"Don't act dumb! He is the second son of the Ecstatic Group, the famous playboy! Alas! It's my fault. I've been negligent in educating you all these years, and that's why you became so shameless. You actually abandoned Elliot and wanted to be with that kind of man."
Clarissa's expression changed slightly.
Matthias was the second son of the Ecstatic Group. He was a well-known playboy in Visstead.
Apart from indulging himself in alcohol and women, it was said that he even took drugs. He got married a few years ago. Later on, it was said that his wife was disabled by him.
Matthias was not imprisoned because the Neal family was rich and powerful. They compensated the woman's family for a sum of money and divorced her directly.
This matter had caused quite a stir in Visstead, so Clarissa knew a little about it.
But she didn't expect that Chloe would say that she had something to do with Matthias.
She sneered, "Mrs. Chapman, you should talk with evidence! How can you say that I'm in a relationship with Matthias?"
"You're really stubborn today. Fine. You will admit it later. Gianni, go and ask Matthias to come here."
As she said this, she sighed, "Since you're not willing to admit it, let's confront Matthias. Clarissa, yo forced me to do this. Don't blame me if you're shamed then."
Clarissa's face was livid. She glanced at Elliot who was standing behind Chloe. He turned his head slightly and looked away because he was guilty.
She suddenly sneered, "Well, I always thought that you asked me to come here today just to give them a way out. But now it seems that you are greedier and more selfish than I thought. You actually slander me for them!"
Chloe's face was expressionless, "Whether I am slandering you or not, we'll know it when Matthias comes."
Matthias came quickly with Gianni.
As soon as he saw Clarissa standing in front of him, his eyes lit up.
He had never seen Clarissa before, but he had heard her name because of what happened five years ago.
When Gianni discussed this matter with him, he was a little unhappy. It was not until he saw her photo that he was moved.
At this moment, when he saw Clarissa, he found that she was even more beautiful than in the photo. He felt happier in his heart.
He felt that he was so lucky and had got a big bargain.
Chloe looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Matthias, do you know the woman in front of me?"
Matthias looked at Clarissa's cold and delicate face with a wretched smile on his face.
"Yes, of course I know her. Not only do we know each other, but we're also very familiar with each other. Clarissa, am I right?"
Hearing what Matthias said, Clarissa got gooseflesh bumped all over.
She looked at Matthias in disgust and said coldly, "Mr. Neal, I have never met you before. Why do you say that you're familiar with me?"
Matthias rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Because I know both of your heart and body well..."
Chloe coughed.
Madison's expression had changed, and her face turned so angry.
Only then did Matthias realize the enormity of his faux pas. He returned to normal and said with a smile, "I'm just kidding. Ha-ha, please don't mind."
Then, he looked at Clarissa flatteringly and said, "Clarissa, that's enough. I know you've been neglected because I'm busy with my work recently, and you're a little angry. But as the saying goes, lovers' quarrels are soon mended. You've been angry with me for so many days. Can you forgive me now? Come back with me!"
Clarissa was so furious that she couldn't even sneer. She stared at him with a sarcastic look on her face.
"Matthias, you should be responsible for what you said! I don't know when we started dating. When did we become lovers?"
Matthias frowned when he heard this.
"Clarissa, it's okay if you want to quarrel with me, but you can't say this. We've been together for two years. Didn't you go back from aboard because of me? How can you say such hurtful words now?"
"Nonsense! I've never seen you before!"
"Alas! I'm so sad to hear what you said! Fine, since you insist on denying it, I have to show you the evidence."
As he spoke, he took out his phone from his pocket. He clicked something and then showed it to Madison.
"Mrs. Richardson, watch carefully. All these are photos of Clarissa and me. Over the years, we have slept together for many times, and she likes to take pictures on bed every time.
"Alas! I don't have any other merits, but I always spoil women, especially the woman I like. These are all shot by her. If you want to see more, I have lots of photos. Oh, by the way, there're many photos in my moments. Do you want to see them?"
As he spoke, he clicked on the screen.
Madison couldn't stand it any longer. Her face had turned red with anger.
Clarissa explained to her in a hurry, "Grandma, don't listen to him. I didn't..."
"That's enough!"
Madison suddenly shouted as she turned to look at Clarissa.
"Clarissa, tell me the truth! Do you have anything to do with this scumbag or not?"
Clarissa's eyes darkened and she said firmly, "No."
"Clarissa! There is a red mole on your left breast, and there is a small moon-shaped birthmark under your feet. How do I know this if you don't have anything to do with me?"
Matthias said loudly in a hurry.
Clarissa's face changed.
When she turned around, she saw Madison standing still with a disappointed expression on her face.
As her god grandmother who had watched her grow up since she was a child, Madison was the first one who bathed her in the hospital with a nurse.
How could she not know the birthmarks on Clarissa's body?
Only a few people knew the birthmarks on Clarissa's body, and even people in the Chapman family were not clear about them.
