Chapter 321 A Hidden Gem
Leaving Natalia's and Aidan's marriage aside, Clarissa heard about something strange a few days before the Christmas day.
The missing daughter of the Levine family was suddenly found!
The news had begun to spread two days ago. It was precisely because of this that the Levine's family could not be bothered to intervene in Natalia's marriage.
By right, it was not surprising that the Levine family had found her as they had been looking for their missing daughter for so long.
What was strange was that Clarissa knew the person they had found!
Looking at the pile of information Nora had just found on the computer in front of her, Clarissa could not help but sneer.
Lara was a tough nut to crack who always seemed to be able to survive in any situation.
"The missing daughter of the Levine family?"
"Pfft! How is that possible?"
Others might not be familiar with Lara, but Clarissa was the one who knew Lara the best.
Lara was not a hidden gem living among the people. She was obviously Lena's and Gianni's illegitimate daughter.
When Lena had come to the Chapman family's house that year, she had done a paternity test in front of everyone to prove that Lara was Gianni's daughter. It could not possibly be wrong.
If that was the case, why did the Levine family still recognize her as their child?
Clarissa couldn't figure it out.
It was not so easy to fool the Levine family as most of them were shrewd. Besides, she did not believe that Lara alone could fool them.
What the hell was going on?
Clarissa was very confused, but she was not going to get any answers while sitting at home.
Therefore, at noon, when she was free, she went to the company to find Anderson.
At this time, Anderson had just finished a meeting. When he saw her, his cold eyes instantly softened.
"Why are you here?"
Clarissa was not in the mood to chatter with him, so she directly told him about Lara.
Anderson had long known about this. However, he was not interested in the Levine family's matters, so he did not inquire much about it. He only found out now that the person was Lara.
He could not help but frown.
Clarissa said in a low voice, "Lara can't be Miss Levine's child. Lena gave birth to her. I'm sure of this. What I don't understand is that the Levine family could figure it out easily, but why did they pretend to know nothing and take her in?"
Anderson also pondered for a moment.
After a while, he looked up at her. "Do you really want to know?"
Clarissa nodded.
"Well, you'll get to know it at night."
Clarissa was speechless.
She was confused, but Anderson did not explain much to her.
At this time, David came in and reminded Anderson the guests that he had scheduled to meet in the afternoon had already arrived. Clarissa knew that he was busy, so she didn't bother him anymore and left first.
It wasn't until at night that Clarissa finally knew what Anderson meant by saying that she would know at night.
At this moment, Clarissa was sitting in the car. Looking at the direction in which the car went, she felt a little nervous.
"It's not a good idea for us to make a visit without informing them in advance, right?"
Anderson smiled. "Although the relationship between the four families is a little tense, it's not irreparable. Not to mention that Uncle Gimmy has always been close with our family, so we should have come to congratulate them that they have finally found their missing daughter. With the relationship between you and Lara, it's normal for you to go there now. If you pretend that you don't know anything and didn't concern about it, then it's abnormal."
Clarissa smiled awkwardly.
"Now that you've mentioned it, I feel like we're not there to clear our doubts. It's more like we're here to seek revenge."
Anderson raised his eyebrows.
"What you said it's not totally wrong."
Clarissa was stunned.
Anderson explained, "Your sister isn't a person of kind character. You're the one who killed her parents and sent her grandmother, who has always pampered her, into prison. Because of that, Lara, who is born with a silver spoon in her mouth, has become a target of scorn overnight. She should hate you very much."
"But you see, it has been so long, and there has been no news of her. I don't believe that she is willing to let go of the hatred and feud. I am afraid that she is just waiting for the right timing to give you a deadly blow when she has the chance. We have to be on our guard. Now that she has come to us, we should naturally go up and figure out what is going on. Know your enemy and you'll win every fight."
Clarissa was at a loss for words upon hearing what he said.
She had to admit that if it weren't for Anderson's analysis, she would never have thought of so much.
And although she hated Lara very much, she didn't wish for her death.
No matter how she thought about it, although Lara had the intention to harm Clarissa, she had failed to do so in the end.
The greatest harm caused by Lara was that she had stolen Elliot from Clarissa.
However, judging from the facts, it was not necessarily a bad thing for Clarissa.
Otherwise, Clarissa would not know how long she would be deceived by that scumbag Elliot.
Although Clarissa was not a saint, she was not a cold-hearted person who was so ruthless and merciless.
Since the Chapman family was involved in the scandals, people's impression of Lara had changed from a gentle and kind angel to a vicious liar who was always scheming against others.
Lara's future and career were all ruined. It was said that not long after the incident, Elliot also divorced her.
In the future, even without Clarissa, things were going to be very difficult for Lara.
Therefore, Clarissa did not want to do anything to her. As long Lara did not try to find trouble with Clarissa, the two of them would live peacefully in the world, like two parallel lines that would never intersect. It would be best if they never saw each other again.
But upon hearing the news and Anderson's analysis, it was like a warning to Clarissa to be on her guard.
Clarissa pondered for a while and frowned slightly.
"After hearing what you said, I'm not so sure anymore. Do you think that Lara is really Vivian's child? Did Lena forge the paternity test results?"
Anderson couldn't help but smile.
Anderson scratched her pretty nose gently and said, "No, Gianni might be easily fooled, but your grandma is smart. Not everyone could fool her."
Only then did Clarissa nod with relief.
Their car soon arrived at the Levine family's mansion.
As soon as they got off the car, they saw a green off-road vehicle was also there. Clarissa knew whose car was it. It probably belonged to the head of the Holland family— Clause Holland.
Claus was 45 years old and he was backed by his position in the military and political sphere.
He was the one who was dissatisfied with the distribution of resources among the four great families and tried to get a larger slice of the cake by suppressing the other three families.
Clarissa and Anderson looked at each other, then walked inside, sharing the same tacit understanding.
"Congratulations on getting your granddaughter back, grandpa. You have finally found her after she went missing for 20 years. It's not only her blessing, but also your blessing!"
