Chapter 349 Analyzing The Pros And Cons
Gabriela's expression darkened.
"Are you pitying me?"
Clarissa raised her eyebrows.
"If I said no, would you believe it?"
"Of course not!"
Gabriela quickly took a step back away from her after she had done tying the string for Clarissa. She said coldly, "In the past, I could still say that I am the only daughter of the Levine family. But I can't say the same anymore. "
"Originally, the Levine family adopted me just to make up for the regret of the loss of their child. But now that Lara is back, I don't think I have any use now. I don't even know what I am to the Levine family anymore now.
If you want to see me make a fool of myself, I can understand, because if it was you who was reduced to this kind of circumstances, I'll be celebrating. But this does not mean that everyone can laugh at me and I can just simply find someone that I don't like to marry."
Clarissa tidied up her clothes and turned to look at her.
"I'm not laughing at you."
Clarissa looked a little serious. After thinking for a few seconds, she continued, "I'm serious about what I had just said. In fact, I don't hate you. I won't tell anyone about the relationship between you and Aaron even if you didn't warn me against it."
"You said yourself that you are now in an awkward position in the Levine family, but you know better than me that once Old Master Levine has kicked the bucket, you won't be able to survive in the Levine Family. It's going to be a mess. So why don't you think ahead to find yourself a way out before that happens?"
Gabriela sneered.
"Do you think I won't be able to survive that? What about Lara? You don't really believe that she is the biological daughter of Vivian, do you?"
Clarissa pursed her lips slightly.
After pausing for a moment, she said, "It seems like Lara is in a more favorable position than you in this game of survival."
Gabriela was stunned.
Clarissa explained, "I'm not saying that Lara is Vivian's daughter, but I'm saying that she is more capable, more courageous, and more cruel than you are. She can easily do what you can do. As for what you can't do, Lara would not hesitate to do it. The Levine family is in a chaos now. If Gillee and Gimmy started to compete with each other, one of them must get hurt. No one will take you seriously. Besides, you don't own any shares or property of the Levine family.
Therefore, in the end, either you would become pawns in the game, or you would get on both of their bad sides and be kicked out of the family after the death of Old Master Levine.
Either one, it would not be better than your current situation. Lara is different. I heard that she is holding 15% of the shares of the Levine Group left by Vivian. Old Master Levine planned to arrange a marriage between her and Jaden.
If the two of them did not get married, Lara would have the 15% of the shares as her shield. Both Gimmy and Gillee wouldn't dare to do anything to her.
And if she really gets married to Jaden, not only the shares she owns, but also the whole Holland family would also be her rock. Don't throw me that doubtful look. Believe me, she can do it."
"After all, I've known her for more than ten years and I'm more familiar with her than you are. I know very well what Lara is capable of doing. She can do what you can't. She can get herself involved in this mess but you can't. This is the reason why I told you to find yourself a way out as soon as possible."
Gabriela was stunned there.
She never expected that Clarissa would tell her so much.
Gabriela understood clearly what Clarissa was saying. But sometimes, it was just very difficult to face the reality.
Gabriela couldn't let go of the fact that she was the first to come to the Levine family. Since she was adopted when she was five years old, she had thought that she was the only daughter of the Levine family.
Until Lara came along.
Gabriela wouldn't mind if Lara was the real daughter of Vivian, but she always had a feeling that Lara was not.
She was not clear what tricks Lara, Gimmy, and Gillee had up their sleeves.
But she always thought that the truth would be revealed sooner or later and she would have to leave the Levine family.
However, after listening to Clarissa's words just now, she finally came to her senses.
Lara would never leave!
Since the day when Gimmy brought Lara back to the Levine family, Old Master Levine really believed that Lara was his granddaughter, whom he had been searching for more than 20 years.
There was no turning back!
No one was willing to bear the sin of deceiving Old Master Levine.
Even if Gabriela's original intention was good, not everyone would have thought so. Eventually, that would be enough to drive her out of the Levine family, and she would be left with nothing.
Therefore, Gimmy would not allow her to say it.
As for Gillee, from the time he spent with her, he seemed to be close with Lara.
Therefore, it was likely that the truth would have to be buried six feet under forever. No one would ever bring it up.
Gabriela's expression changed completely. From being shocked to being stuck in a predicament, she finally gave everything up without a fight.
She had to admit that Clarissa's words made sense.
She was no match for Lara.
She might look noble and arrogant all these years, but in fact, she was nothing but a pawn of Old Master Levine.
Old Master Levine wanted to use her to unite the Levine family with the Holland family by marriage, but she refused.
Therefore, he was also disappointed in her.
But now that Lara, who he thought was his real granddaughter, had come back, where can Gabriela go now?
She might not be able to change anything even if she told Old Master Levine Lara was a fake.
With Gimmy's and Gillee's help and Old Master Levine's radical trust in Lara, no one would believe her.
By that time, who could she rely on to help her?
Who was willing to help her?
Gabriela suddenly felt she was completely drained of energy as she had seen everything through clearly in an instant. A kind of indescribable sadness slowly rose from the bottom of her heart, soon taking over her.
She looked at Clarissa for a while before she spoke out with difficulty.
"Why are you telling me this?"
She didn't believe that Clarissa would tell her this for her own good.
Clarissa smiled.
"Believe me, I hate to see her living so comfortably more than you."
Gabriela's expression darkened slightly.
"I thought you no longer care about what happened in Visstead by not telling everyone the truth."
Clarissa sneered.
"I used to think so. But she shouldn't have messed with the person I cared about."
Although Clarissa hadn't seen the surveillance footage, she could vaguely guess who was the one who pushed Anne into the swimming pool tonight.
There were only a few people in the Levine family who held a grudge against her. However, Anne was only a child. Who would be so sick as to hurt a child?
She had originally wondered if it was Gabriela. After all, she liked Anderson so much. If she couldn't get what she wanted, she might as destroy it. If she couldn't go after Anderson, she could go after his only child.
So, she tried to sound Gabriela out, but the look in Gabriela's eyes and intuition told her that she didn't do it.
Since it was not her, it could only be Lara.
