Chapter 957 Sow Discord
With a smile, Clarissa explained. "But Aunt Chantel, one billion is not a small number. If I take the money, Anderson will definitely find out about it. If he asks by then, what should I say?"
After hearing the explanation, Chantel thought it made sense.
With a moment of hesitation, she suggested. "Why don't you just tell him that you spent it? Anderson dotes on you so much, so he definitely won't mind if you spend only a billion."
When Clarissa heard that, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "If I'm buying something... I will at least need to have the item that I bought."
"Ahh, that's easy!" Chantel waved her hand and said, "Just take a few gemstones to fool him. Anyway, he is a man, and he won't notice it. Just say that the money is spent on jewelry. I'm sure he won't say anything."
As she spoke, she winked again and added discreetly, "When the time comes, I will return the money to you privately, and the money will be yours. Are you stupid?"
Upon listening to her suggestion, Clarissa was surprised.
Looking at her behavior, she suddenly felt sorry for her.
How could a member of the Jordan Family ended up like this?
How could she even think of the idea of suggesting Clarissa to line her pockets with the family's funds?
Hence, she shook her head. "Aunt Chantel, I'm sorry. I can't lie to Anderson. I don't want to pocket the money. So if you really want to borrow it, I must discuss it with Anderson. If you don't want him to know..."
She paused suddenly, then took out a credit card from her bag and handed it to Chantel.
"This is my own money. It's not much. It's only about 20 million, and Anderson won't know about it. If you don't mind, you can use it."
However, when Chantel saw this, her face suddenly sank.
Immediately, she sprang up, looking at Clarissa with a cold face and shouted angrily. "Clarissa! Who do you take me for? Do you think I can be sent away like a beggar? 20 million? How dare you think! Now that you have taken charge of the household and become the lady of the Jordan family, do you think you can be arrogant? Don't forget, I am your aunt!"
Clarissa had long been accustomed to her remorseless attitude. Therefore, seeing that Chantel didn't accept it, she put the card away and uttered lightly, "Since you don't want it, forget it then. I've said everything I wanted to say, so you can think about it yourself."
After that, she ignored her and went straight upstairs.
Seeing this, Chantel was furious.
She pointed at Clarissa and began cursing her.
"Clarissa! What do you mean? Don't think that everything in the Jordan family is yours just because you are married to Anderson! Your last name is not Jordan, but mine is. Don't you dare to walk away! You..."
She was about to charge forward but was stopped by two servants.
With her head bowed slightly, Pattie said respectfully, "Ma'am, Mrs. Jordan is now pregnant. She is tired now and needs to rest. Please lower your voice."
Hearing this, Chantel glared at her.
"Why should I be quiet? So what if she is pregnant? Just she is pregnant, she is a queen? It's not her first time being pregnant anyway!"
Although she said so, at the end of the day, it was still Anderson's child. If something bad really happened, the consequences would be serious. So in the end, she flung her arms up in anger and left.
Just as she was about to leave, she saw Anne, who had just come home with the maid.
It was Friday today. Anne only had half-day school and she could come back after lunch.
Therefore, the driver had went to pick her up early in the morning. At this time, she happened to enter the house and ran into Chantel.
Anne's eyes lit up when she saw her, and she shouted. "Great-aunt Chantel!"
Of course, Chantel also saw her. Her eyes flicked, revealing a trace of viciousness.
Walking over, she then said with a smile, "Anne, why are home so early today?"
In response, Anne nodded happily. "Well, today is Friday, and I only have half day of school."
Then, Chantel stroked Anne's little head. "Just in time. You can pack up your things later and move to your great-grandparents' house."
Upon learning the news, Anne was stunned, and a hint of doubt and confusion flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"I'm moving to Great-grandpa and Great-grandma's place to live? Why?"
Squatting down, Chantel added. "Don't you know? Your mommy is pregnant now."
But Anne was even more confused. "I know. Mommy asked me last night whether I wanted a little sister or a little brother. I chose a little sister."
Squinting her eyes, she smiled happily as she spoke.
Seeing that, Chantel shook her head and sighed.
"Silly you. You chose a little sister? Don't you know that you will be abandoned after having a little sister?"
As soon as she finished her words, Anne was in a dazed and looked at her blankly.
Chantel continued. "You have to understand that no matter how good your mommy treats you, you're not her biological daughter at the end of the day. Marf is a boy, so you can't feel the difference. If she is really having a little girl, you will definitely feel the difference once she was born. You'll regret it."
At this point, Anne finally understood what she meant.
Immediately, Anne pushed her away and growled. "You are lying! Mommy loves me so much. She will love me and my little sister. You are lying!"
Then, Chantel stood up and looked at her coldly.
"You will find out soon. Your mommy will be sending you to your great-grandparent's house for the sake of your little sister. If you don't believe me, just wait and see what she'll tell you. Then you will finally believe me."
Meanwhile, Anne looked at her and pushed her away sadly. Without another word, she rushed straight into the villa.
The driver followed behind and his expression did not look too good, but he did not dare to make a comment. Hence, he quickly caught up with Anne.
In the villa.
After Clarissa returned to her room, she suddenly remembered that it was Friday today. Anne had only half-day class, and she should be back at this time.
Immediately, she came out again and asked Pattie, "Pattie, is Anne back?"
As Pattie was suddenly reminded of it, she patted her head. "Oh, right. Look at me. I almost forgot. I will go get her now."
While they were talking, they suddenly saw a small figure rushing into the house. Of course, it was Anne!
The driver followed behind, holding her schoolbag. When he saw Clarissa, he greeted her respectfully. "Mrs. Jordan."
Clarissa nodded and noticed that there was something off with Anne's expression. Therefore, she went downstairs and asked, "Anne, what's wrong? Why do you look so sad?"
Then, Anne looked at her with an angry face. "Mommy, are you going to send me to Great-grandma's house?"
Upon hearing that, Clarissa was stunned and confused.
"How did you know that?"
But when Anne heard that, she was instantly pissed off.
Hence, she pushed Clarissa away and screamed angrily. "I don't want you anymore. I hate you."
After that, she rushed to her room.
As Clarissa stumbled backward, Pattie was startled that her expression changed, and she immediately rushed up to hold her.
"Mrs. Jordan, are you okay? Are you alright?"
Clarissa waved her hand, frowning as she looked toward the direction of Anne's room.
Anne was always very well-behaved, and she would never have such a temper tantrum. What happened to her?
