Chapter 245 Somewhat Jealous
Clarissa nodded.
"That's not right." Matteo frowned, "Since Lara and her mother had come to your house and your mother knew that she would have an accident, it was impossible for her to only leave a necklace for you."
"Grandma, you mean that..."
"Listen. If I were your mother, and I knew that they came to my house not only for your father, but also for the properties."
"In this case, I would definitely transfer part of the properties to your name in advance. In this way, even if something bad happened to me in the future, you would not be bullied. Am I right?"
Clarissa was slightly stunned.
In fact, she had felt puzzled about this matter indeed, but her mother had passed away, so it didn't make much sense to think about it.
As far as she knew, when her mother was still alive, many of the properties of the Campos Group had been taken away by Gianni and Chloe.
Her mother Sierra was indifferent to fame, and she didn't like competing with others.
Therefore, even though Gianni and Chloe became greedier and greedier, and even renamed the Campos Group to the Chapman Group, she had no objections.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that her mother seemed to have something on her mind.
Sometimes, she felt guilty for Gianni unconsciously.
Perhaps this was why Gianni bullied her more and more severely.
Clarissa frowned and was lost in thought.
Seeing this, Anderson didn't want her to be sad about these past events, so he interrupted the topic.
"Alright, it's time for eating. Let's not talk about this. Come on, Clarissa, taste the hairy crabs here."
As he said this, he personally peeled a crab and put it in Clarissa's bowl.
Clarissa came to sense and nodded.
Opposite them, Anne said crisply when she saw this, "Daddy, I want to eat it, too."
Anderson glanced at her and gave her a small piece of crab roe from his bowl.
Anne looked at the little crab roe in her bowl, and suddenly became unhappy.
She puckered her mouth and said angrily, "I don't want it! I want you to peel a big crab for me. It should be as big as the crab in mommy's bowl!"
Saying this, she even pointed to the crab in Clarissa's bowl.
Clarissa suddenly burst into laughter.
Anderson put on a stern face.
"Don't you know that you're in poor health? The doctor said that you can't eat too much cold food. I allow you to eat this just for the sake of your mother. If you don't eat it, give it back to me."
As he said this, he really reached out to grab her bowl.
Seeing this, Anne quickly took away the bowl in front of her.
Her big eyes misted with tears as she puffed out her cheeks, looking particularly wronged.
"Bad daddy! You grab my crab. I don't want to sit with you anymore."
After speaking, she jumped off the chair, ran to Clarissa and sat down next to her.
"I want to sit with mommy."
As she said this, she raised her head very flatteringly and smiled at Clarissa.
Clarissa's heart almost melted because she was so cute. She touched Anne's head to comfort her.
Then she picked up a piece of meat for Anne and said softly, "Anne, you can't eat crabs. How about eating soy-braised pork? It's also very delicious."
Anne nodded, scooped up the piece of meat in the bowl and ate it, and then squinted her eyes very contentedly.
"Thank you, mommy. The meat you picked for me is so yummy."
Anderson was speechless.
Anne had never eaten soy-braised pork before!
It seemed that she liked Clarissa more than him!
Seeing them getting along intimately, Anderson felt very uncomfortable.
He was enviable and jealous.
Matteo was very happy. Originally, she was worried that Clarissa and Anne would not get along well, but it seemed that she had thought too much.
She didn't know what Anne was thinking in heart. These years, she had spent a lot of effort to find a good mother for her.
But Anne didn't like anyone of them. Gabriela was very gentle and virtuous, but Anne just said that she was so-so and didn't really treat her as her mother.
When she met Clarissa, she was totally attracted to her and loved her so much. Matteo had never seen Anne so obedient.
She was very relived.
Clarissa asked curiously, "I always know that Anne is not in good health, but I don't know why. Is she sick? Or has she been weak since she was born?"
The expressions of Anderson and Matteo changed slightly when they heard this question.
Anderson still looked calm, but Matteo sighed.
"This is a long story. Anne is different from normal children. She..."
Clarissa listened to her very carefully.
"She was not born by a woman but was born through a test tube and an artificial uterus. There was something with the whole progress, which caused her to be in poor health."
Clarissa was a little surprised when she heard this.
She had always thought that Anne was born by one of Anderson's ex-girlfriends!
It turned out that she was born through an artificial method.
Although Clarissa had not seen it with her own eyes, she had occasionally heard about the artificial uterus from the news when she was abroad.
It was said that a medical genius simulated the environment of a baby in the womb and wanted to replace the hardship of a woman giving birth.
Unexpectedly, he succeeded!
At this moment, Clarissa couldn't help but feel more distressed when she looked at Anne.
She was so poor, and she even had no biological mother!
If the person who donated the eggs could be regarded as her mother.
Clarissa regretted so much that she did not treat Anne better during this period of time.
Anne was somewhat puzzled, and she didn't understand why they suddenly became sad.
She blinked, and then gently pulled Clarissa's sleeve.
"Mommy, what are you talking about?"
Clarissa was so distressed that she leaned over and hugged her gently, comforting her in a soft voice, "Nothing. Good girl."
Anne let Clarissa hold her in her arms without moving, and looked at her quietly.
In fact, she understood something, but she didn't know it so clearly.
For example, she knew that they were talking about her background, and Clarissa hugged her because she felt sorry for her.
But she didn't think that she was pitiful at all.
Anderson told her that she had a mommy, and her mommy was the best and the most beautiful woman in the world.
There were pictures of her mommy in Anderson's computer. When she saw Clarissa, she recognized her at first sight.
Moreover, Anderson said that although she was different from ordinary children, she was just born in a different way.
As for other things, she was the same as other children. If there must be a difference, maybe she was better-looking and cuter than them!
