Chapter 296 Suffer Grievance
The servant glanced at Chantel and then looked at Clarissa.
She keenly noticed the atmosphere between them was strange, but she didn't dare to ask anything.
"Okay." She said very respectfully, and then was about to come forward to help Chantel.
Chantel went berserk. Looking at Clarissa's unemotional and indifferent face, she kept thinking of her words "I am the future hostess of the Jordan Family."
She only wanted to rush to Clarissa and kill her!
But in the end, she took a deep breath and suppressed the dissatisfaction and anger in her heart.
"Alright, you are actually bold enough to say this kind of words in front of me! Just wait and see! Clarissa, let me tell you. Anderson can change his wife at any time, but he can't change his aunt!"
"I watched him grow up. No matter how he likes you now, his love for you will not last forever. Good times don't last long. Just wait! Sooner or later, I will drive you out of the Jordan Family! "
After she finished speaking, she held the servant's hand and walked away angrily.
As soon as Chantel left, Clarissa felt that even her breathing instantly became smoother.
She looked up at the sky, took a deep breath, and felt the raging anger in her chest was about to overflow.
After a long while, she calmed down a little.
She turned around and walked out.
After she got in the car, Anderson saw that her face was strange and frowned.
Putting aside the magazine which he had been reading casually when waiting for her, he leaned over and asked, "What's wrong? What did she tell you?"
"Nothing."
It was not that Clarissa didn't want to tell him what Chantel said, but she didn't think it was necessary.
She believed Anderson, so there was no difference between saying it and not.
She took a deep breath and told David, "Start the car!"
David nodded, started the car, and drove out slowly.
Anderson kept watching her silently.
He had always been shrewd and had good powers of observation. He had seen the sadness in her eyes.
Her cold face and teary eyes all showed that she had been wronged.
Chantel must have said something harsh to her again.
Anderson's face turned apathetic.
He took out his cellphone and said in a deep voice, "I'll call her now!"
Seeing this, Clarissa's eyelids twitched as she quickly reached out to stop him.
"Don't do this."
Anderson frowned.
Clarissa paused, composed her emotions and then said, "She always doesn't like me. This time, she felt that I was taking the opportunity to embarrass her and drive her out of the Jordan Family."
"This is a misunderstanding. If you call her now, no matter what you say, she will think that I have complained to you and think that I am aiming at her. In this way, she will misunderstand me more, and no practical problems can be solved, so there is no need to call her."
Anderson said coldly, "But you have been wronged."
Clarissa smiled reluctantly.
"It's okay. I will only feel wronged if someone I care about says like that."
As she said, she turned her head and looked out the window, staring at the quiet road in the middle of the night.
Anderson was distressed, took her hand, and pulled her into his arms.
"Clarissa, sorry, it's all because of me that you're wronged."
Clarissa smiled.
"Why do you say that?"
"I know that you don't want to put me in a quandary, so you don't want to argue with her. But Clarissa, you are my wife. If you are wronged, I won't be happy either. Auntie is arrogant, and I didn't care about it before. But if she aims at you, I will never remain indifferent."
Although Chantel was their elder, it didn't mean that Clarissa must suffer grievance and repsect her.
Clarissa hugged his waist. Feeling the distress in his tone, she sighed.
"I'm really fine. Don't worry. I just don't want to bring up unexpected troubles. We just said a few unfriendly words, and she didn't really bully me. No one really dares to bully me. I am not a coward and will not be bullied easily."
Anderson agreed with this very much.
He let go of her and kissed her on the forehead.
"Clarissa, you are so kind."
They returned to Starbay Villa.
The next day, Chantel left Flaucford under the arrangement of Matteo.
Anderson asked David to investigate the stone gambling casino, and found that the casino really had something to do with the Holland family.
The Holland family just regarded Jacab as a tool. They used him to lure Chantel into the trap deliberately.
In fact, there was no grudge between the Holland family and the Jordan Family in the past.
These years, the Holland family was getting more and more powerful. Two tigers cannot live on the same mountain. If the Holland family wanted to become the wealthiest family in the country, naturally they had to topple the Jordan Family.
But how could the Jordan Family not fight back?
Within a few days, the police closed Jacab's stone gambling casino for fraud and other crimes.
This matter came to a temporary end.
At the same time, Lauren was about to give birth to the child.
Although Clarissa had agreed not to accompany her, she was quite worried.
After all, except for the man whom she didn't know, there was no relatives or friends beside Lauren.
Fortunately, the situation was better than she had imagined. Lauren gave birth to a boy who weighed about seven pounds successfully.
Lauren gave him the name "Joy", wishing that he could live a joyful and peaceful life.
As his godmother, Clarissa was naturally very happy. She forced Lauren to have a video chat with her.
Looking at the soft and small baby on the screen, she felt that her heart had melted.
Lauren smiled and said, "Since you like children so much, why don't you have a child on your own?"
Clarissa was stunned, thought for a while, and said, "It's not in a hurry."
In fact, the reason why she always refused to get pregnant was that she had been filming and didn't want to affect her work.
Moreover, she took Anne into consideration.
Anne was different from ordinary children. She had no mother since she was born. Every time she saw Clarissa, she was clinging to her.
She could feel Anne's desire for maternal love and the huge sense of insecurity in her heart.
Therefore, she didn't know whether she would affect Anne or not if she got pregnant at this time.
Thinking of this, Clarissa sighed again.
She didn't know why Anderson kept this child in that way. Was there any inside story?
But she just thought about it casually. Naturally, it was impossible for her to ask him.
She looked at Lauren and asked, "When will you come back?"
People didn't know that Lauren had secretly given birth to a child.
She did not intend to give up her career as an actress, so she would come back sooner or later.
