Chapter 364 Exposing Her Ploy
Old Master Levine's persistence was unusual.
Since he already said that, although Anderson suspected him, he knew in his heart that the possibility of this being true was very small.
Firstly, for a person of a social standing like Old Master Levine, there was not necessary for him to deal with Clarissa for such a trivial thing. Besides, the ploy engaged was execrable, it didn't seem to be his doing.
Thus, after a few seconds of stalemate, Anderson still made way.
Old Master Levine hurried into the room.
Clarissa hadn't woken up yet. Her treatment would require anesthetics and she had just had a high fever, so she was sleeping e.
He looked at her from a distance and saw that half of her pale face was buried in the pillow. She looked so fragile and pitiful.
His eyes could not help but turn red.
"How are her injuries? Will she be fine?"
Anderson's eyebrows furrowed deeper. He couldn't fathom out Old Master Levine's behavior now.
However, he still replied, "For the time being, she's fine."
Old Master Levine let out a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Albetine whispered behind him, "Old Master Levine, Miss Chapman is safe now, and Young Master Anderson is here. Nothing will happen to her. You must take care of yourself too, so don't need to worry about her too much."
Old Master Levine nodded and said to Anderson, "Please take good care of her. I'll leave her to you too."
Anderson became more suspicious and asked, "Are you sure you're alright?"
Old Master Levine waved his hand.
"I'm fine. I've always felt guilty about her because of what happened that night, so I came especially to take a look at her. Since she's already out of danger, I'll make a move first. Take good care of her."
After that, he left with the help of Albetine.
As Anderson watched him walk away, a deep furrow tanged in his sword brows.
After more than half an hour, Clarissa finally woke up.
When she saw that Anderson was here as well, she didn't feel surprised at all. After asking him about what had happened after she fainted, she learned that Old Master Levine was here before. However, Clarissa didn't pay much attention to it as she thought he just happened to be at the hospital when he was visiting her.
Anderson said in a deep voice, "Did you offend anyone in the film crew recently?"
Clarissa thought for a moment, then frowned and shook her head. "No."
She paused and looked up at Anderson. "You think it was man-made?"
Anderson nodded.
Clarissa fell silent.
Fearing that she might overthink, Anderson comforted her in a soft voice, "Don't worry, I'll handle it. The most important thing for you now is to have a good rest and recover."
Clarissa nodded.
She was not worried about that at all. After all, Anderson was here with her. She knew that he would not let her suffer for nothing.
Since this accident was caused by someone, he or she must have left some evidence behind.
After Clarissa recovered her consciousness, she ate something. Since she couldn't move her hands, Anderson had to feed her.
Afraid that Old Master Jordan and Old Madam Jordan would be worried, Clarissa asked Anderson about them. Apparently, the crew had already kept a tight lid on the accident that happened during the shooting today. Anderson didn't tell the family what had happened also, so both his parents did not know about the accident.
Clarissa agreed with him very much.
After eating, Clarissa was still feeling lethargic. Anderson told her to rest for a while and had Nora come in to keep an eye on her.
Seeing Clarissa that was awake now, she felt a little remorseful.
Because previously, no matter where Clarissa went, unless she stayed with Anderson, Nora would always follow her around.
But today, something happened to her brother, so she asked for a leave from Clarissa. She didn't expect that such an accident would happen after she was not by her side for half a day.
Clarissa was worried that Anderson would blame her, so she had told him not to do so before Nora came.
Anderson didn't say anything. It wasn't Nora's fault. Someone had already tampered with the steel wire before the accident happened. Even if Nora was there, she wouldn't be able to save her anyway.
Anderson kept her company for a while, and then answered a phone call. He then said that he had something to do and left.
Clarissa felt drowsy. After chatting with Nora for a while, she soon fell asleep again.
At this time, on the other side.
Although the news of Clarissa's injury had been concealed from the media and the public, it was simply impossible for them to keep it a secret from their own people.
Even Gabriela knew about it, so it was impossible for Lara not to know about it.
As a result, Lara had been in a state of panic after she knew she had failed to kill Clarissa.
Lara knew that there were a lot of people investigating this matter including the Jordan family and the Levine family. Based on their ability, they would probably get to her before dawn.
"What should I do?"
At this time, she would not be stupid enough to stay at home, because once things were exposed, it would be effectively hurling herself into the trap willingly.
Since Old Master Levine already knew that Clarissa was his biological granddaughter, it was impossible for him not to avenge her for what had happened.
Therefore, she had to think of a way to escape as soon as possible.
Lara stayed in a hotel room, making phone calls repeatedly.
But at this moment, she couldn't get through Gillee's cell phone at all.
No matter how hard she tried to call him, his phone was turned off.
D*mn it!
How could Lara not understand at this time? She was being used by someone. Now that the matter was revealed, she would naturally be ditched by him after she was no longer of any use.
Lara's heart was filled with hatred.
"Gillee, you won't help me, would you? Then I won't let you off easily!" Lara thought.
A grin appeared on Lara's face. She found a recording on her phone and sent it to Gillee.
At the same time, she had attached a message to him before sending it out.
"You want to burn the bridges? No way! Worse comes to worst, we will go to hell together."
Gillee actually did not turn off his phone, instead, he had blocked Lara's number.
He frowned as he saw the recording on Whatsapp.
He found a quiet corner and listened to the recording. Suddenly, his expression changed greatly.
He didn't expect that Lara, the little b*tch, would secretly record their conversation when they were discussing how to deal with Clarissa that day.
If this recording was leaked out and was discovered by Old Master Levine, then he would be kicked out of the family.
Not only would he lose all his wealth and glory today, he might be immediately driven out of the country by Old Master Levine. Besides, he wouldn't be able to get a single cent of Old Master Levine's fortune.
Gillee's face was contorted with rage. He thought about it and decided that he must stop the recording from being leaked.
He returned to his room and unblocked Lara's number. He dialed her number and asked in a deep voice, "Where are you?"
"What's wrong? Are you willing to pick up my call now?"
Gillee took a deep breath and suppressed the disdain towards Lara in his heart. "Don't talk nonsense! Give the recording to me now. I will ask someone to send you abroad to keep you alive."
"Send me abroad? Why?"
"Do you think there is still a place for you in Flaucford? You were the one who had tampered with the wires. They will find you soon! If you are smart enough, quickly give me the recording, and I will ask someone to send you away."
Lara's expression changed.
It had never occurred to Lara that it had taken so much effort for her to reach the Flaucford from the Visstead and climb to her current position, but in the end, she had ended up like this.
She said in a stern voice, "No! You send me abroad first, including my mother. When we get to a safe place, I will only give you the recording."
"How dare you!"
