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. Iwon't go then.” Raymond's gaze swept over Charles and Clarissa before he said flatly, “Take Clarissawith 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,” hereplied. “I'll go get ready then!” Clarissa was looking forward to the trip to Jadeborough. I've alwaysstayed here and have never left. Of course, I'm looking forward to it now that I finally have thechance. As Charles gave her a nod in response, she stood up. “I'll go get ready now.” With that, sheturned 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 finishhis words as he tried to guess his father's intention. Raymond said coldly, “In the future, Charles willlive in Jadeborough long-term for sure. We need to have our people there, and if Clarissa marrieshim, 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 thenews yet, but isn't that a natural thing?” Raymond said flatly, “Samuel will never let go of Kathleen inthis life, so it's only a matter of time before they get together again. Besides, they still have twochildren.” Wilbur nodded in response while something flashed in Adina’s eyes. After Raymond hadgone upstairs to rest, she put her arm around Wilbur's. “Your father is really interesting.” Henarrowed 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 BlissfulSect 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 seriouslynow, don't blame me for not reminding you when she has her own power and can challenge youwithin the sect.” Wilbur's gaze turned cold. If Clarissa truly has that in mind, I'll nip it in the bud! Atouch of coldness appeared on Clarissa’s face when she heard Wilbur and Adina’s conversation fromher position on the second floor. Thinking of killing me? Dream on! Then again, I have somethingimportant to tell Charles. Gosh, I'm so careless! She immediately went back to her room and calledhim. At that moment, Charles was on his way back. “What's up?” he asked indifferently. “Can youpick 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, atrace 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 thatRaymond's intention is as clear as day. Everyone knows what he’s thinking. However, I only likeClarissa as a sister, nothing romantic. I don’t want to hurt her, so I should replace an opportunity to talkto 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 samecolor pinned to her hair. She walked over to him with a smile. “We can go now.” Charles noticed shewas 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.” “Allright then.” He helped her lift the suitcase into the car. They then entered the car and started theirjourney. “Where will I be staying when we get there, Charles?” Clarissa asked curiously, “If youhaven't made any arrangements, I can get someone to rent a house for me in advance. I don't wantto stay in a hotel.” “You'll stay at my house.” Charles explained, “Your father told me to take goodcare of you, and I'm not comfortable with you living outside.” “Okay.” Clarissa nodded. “As long asI'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 tothe 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 twistedinto a deep frown. “Where did you meet her?” “Near Lauren's house. I was going to look for Laurenwhen I spotted her midway. She was seriously injured at that time and stopped my car. I thought ofYareli 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'smother, Vanessa. She knows a lot of secrets. Kate and I have been looking for her, but we couldn'tseem to replace her.” Clarissa narrowed her eyes. “It seems I'm quite lucky.” “Thank you.” Charlescontinued 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 hallwayand gave some instructions while glancing into the ward. Clarissa obediently stood by the hospitalbed, waiting for him to return. Charles pulled his lips into a thin line. “Make it quick.” With that, hehung 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 sidewaysglance. Slowly, he said, “Actually, your father—" “I've said it before, Charles. I only think of you as abrother. My dad is my dad. His thoughts don’t represent mine,” Clarissa said seriously. Charlesnodded lightly. “This I know. I just don't want to hurt you.” “You already did. You ask as thoughyou're disgusted with me. Even though I only like you as a brother, I'm still a girl,” she said bitterly.
