Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 410

Chapter 410 I Am Still A Girl “I think you just want to go out and have fun,” Raymond remarked. Clarissa sat down. “See? I want to look for him, but you’re saying I want to go out and have fun. I won’t go then.” Raymond’s gaze swept over Charles and Clarissa before he said flatly, “Take Clarissa with you, Charles. After all, she should explore and get more exposure to the real world.” “Okay.” Charles nodded. Clarissa was overjoyed. “Can I really go?” Raymond nodded in response. Sweet! “When are you planning to set off, Charles?” Clarissa looked at his handsome face. “Tomorrow,” he replied. “I’ll go get ready then!” Clarissa was looking forward to the trip to Jadeborough. I’ve always stayed here and have never left. Of course, I’m looking forward to it now that I finally have the chance. As Charles gave her a nod in response, she stood up. “I’ll go get ready now.” With that, she turned around to head upstairs. Raymond’s lips twitched. “I’ll have to trouble you then, Charles.” Charles’s expression remained neutral. “It’s fine.

I’ll take my leave now.” After saying that, he also left. “Dad, are you trying to…” Wilbur did not finish his words as he tried to guess his father’s intention. Raymond said coldly, “In the future, Charles will live in Jadeborough long-term for sure. We need to have our people there, and if Clarissa marries him, we won’t need to send another person. Not to mention, Charles has Samuel as his brother-in-law.” “Oh?” Wilbur narrowed his eyes. “Is Kathleen going to remarry Samuel?” “I haven’t gotten the news yet, but isn’t that a natural thing?” Raymond said flatly, “Samuel will never let go of Kathleen in this life, so it’s only a matter of time before they get together again. Besides, they still have two children.” Wilbur nodded in response while something flashed in Adina’s eyes. After Raymond had gone upstairs to rest, she put her arm around Wilbur’s. “Your father is really interesting.” He narrowed his eyes. “How so?” “There’s no way you didn’t notice your sister’s ambition, right, Wilbur?” Adina uttered coolly. Wilbur remained impassive.

“You can’t just be wary of Wyatt anymore. There’s also Clarissa. Your father never said that Blissful Sect cannot be passed on to his daughter,” she reminded him. He smirked. “She’s just a little girl. Why are you afraid of her?” Adina got up and said lightly, “In any case, if you don’t take it seriously now, don’t blame me for not reminding you when she has her own power and can challenge you within the sect.” Wilbur’s gaze turned cold. If Clarissa truly has that in mind, I’ll nip it in the bud! A touch of coldness appeared on Clarissa’s face when she heard Wilbur and Adina’s conversation from her position on the second floor. Thinking of killing me? Dream on! Then again, I have something important to tell Charles. Gosh, I’m so careless! She immediately went back to her room and called him. At that moment, Charles was on his way back. “What’s up?” he asked indifferently. “Can you pick me up an hour earlier tomorrow, Charles?

I have something very important to tell you,” she said cautiously. “Mm, got it,” he said with a nod. “Okay. I’ll wait for you!” Clarissa hung up the phone and went to get ready. While driving alone, a trace of coldness surfaced on Charles’ handsome and devilish face. He had no issue with Clarissa. On the contrary, she had helped him a lot over the years, both openly and secretly. It’s just that Raymond’s intention is as clear as day. Everyone knows what he’s thinking. However, I only like Clarissa as a sister, nothing romantic. I don’t want to hurt her, so I should find an opportunity to talk to her tomorrow. The next day, Charles came to pick up Clarissa an hour earlier. She looked pretty, wearing a pink-colored dress with her long dark hair tied into a ponytail and a bow of the same color pinned to her hair. She walked over to him with a smile. “We can go now.” Charles noticed she was carrying a yellow suitcase that was only thirteen inches and lifted his eyebrow. “Is this all?” “Yes.” Clarissa showed him the bank card in her hand. “Don’t worry. I can buy stuff when we get there.” “All right then.” He helped her lift the suitcase into the car. They then entered the car and started their journey. “Where will I be staying when we get there, Charles?” Clarissa asked curiously, “If you haven’t made any arrangements, I can get someone to rent a house for me in advance. I don’t want to stay in a hotel.” “You’ll stay at my house.” Charles explained, “Your father told me to take good care of you, and I’m not comfortable with you living outside.” “Okay.” Clarissa nodded. “As long as I’m not troubling you.” “You’re very sensible and have never given me any trouble,” he replied flatly. Hearing that, she grinned. “I also think that I’m quite sensible.” Charles smirked at her response. “What is it that you wish to tell me?” At his prompt, Clarissa suddenly remembered it. “Let’s go to the hospital first.” Hospital? Despite his confusion, he changed his route and took her straight there. Upon reaching the hospital, Clarissa led him to an intensive care unit. “Look, Charles.

I picked up a big fish.” She pointed at Vanessa, who was lying on the bed. Charles’ brows twisted into a deep frown. “Where did you meet her?” “Near Lauren’s house. I was going to look for Lauren when I spotted her midway. She was seriously injured at that time and stopped my car. I thought of Yareli as soon as I saw her, so I brought her back.” Despite not knowing who the woman was, Clarissa knew that she was related to Yareli. He regarded her with a meaningful look. “She is Yareli’s mother, Vanessa. She knows a lot of secrets. Kate and I have been looking for her, but we couldn’t seem to find her.” Clarissa narrowed her eyes. “It seems I’m quite lucky.” “Thank you.” Charles continued with a frown, “But we can’t leave her here. We must take her away as soon as possible.” “Okay.” She nodded. “Let me make a call.” He then went out with his phone. He stood in the hallway and gave some instructions while glancing into the ward. Clarissa obediently stood by the hospital bed, waiting for him to return. Charles pulled his lips into a thin line. “Make it quick.” With that, he hung up the phone and went back inside. “How is it?” she asked with concern.

“It has been arranged.” Charles’s voice was slightly lower. “Clarissa.” “Yes?” She threw him a sideways glance. Slowly, he said, “Actually, your father—” “I’ve said it before, Charles. I only think of you as a brother. My dad is my dad. His thoughts don’t represent mine,” Clarissa said seriously. Charles nodded lightly. “This I know. I just don’t want to hurt you.” “You already did. You ask as though you’re disgusted with me. Even though I only like you as a brother, I’m still a girl,” she said bitterly.
