Chapter 39
Clarissa and Lilian instantly let out a sigh of relief. Thank goodness that Madam Hough’s question was
interrupted. If not, the lie that they deliberately set up would be exposed!
The moment Jack entered the room, all eyes were on him.
“Mister Hough!” Clarissa called out respectfully. She immediately rushed forward before Naomi could say
anything
“I’ve given Old Mister Hough some of our family heirloom‘s miracle drugs. His condition is much more
stable already. Don’t worry.” Clarissa said with a deliberate gentle tone. She even looked up at Jack
tender -heartedly.
She deliberately dressed up that day. She even added some elements that would drive men wild in her
perfume. She could surely capture Jack’s heart!
Naomi supported her cheeks with one hand while looking at Clarissa put on an act. She even took a

Jack lowered his head and swept Clarissa an indifferent glance. A hint of detest appeared on his face.
“Who are you? Get away from me.”
“…” Clarissa stammered. She was so awkward that her face turned pale.
“Pfft!” Naomi could not help but laugh. She almost spat her fruit out. Clarissa tried so hard, yet Jack did
not even remember who she was!
“Jack, this is Naomi‘s family. They sent some medication today to relieve your grandfather‘s condition. Mi
nd your manners,” Madam Hough stood up and explained. She instructed Jack with displeasure.
Clarissa was instantly relieved. She was secretly smug. Thank goodness for the miracle drug so that
Madam Hough would support her! As long as she pleased Madam Hough, she would not worry about not
having the opportunity to get closer to Jack!
At that thought, Clarissa swept Naomi a condescending glance from the corner of her eyes and secretly
sneered.
Naomi, that idiot, only knew how to eat! She was no match for her!
Beep! Beep! Beep! The alarm in the ward suddenly rang out piercingly.
“It‘s Old Mister Hough!” Madam Hough‘s expressions changed. Jack
immediately rushed in with the others following suit.
The moment the door was opened, they saw Old Mister Hough‘s face turning blue. His entire body was
twitching!
“That’s bad!” Naomi noticed and immediately wanted to rush forward when a hand by the side
forcefully stopped her in her path.
“Naomi, the doctors are coming soon, don’t cause further trouble!” Clarissa deliberately stopped Naomi,
pretending to be the calm character in times of trouble lecturing Naomi in front of Madam Hough.
“Are you sure you want to stop me?” Naomi stopped in her tracks. She looked at Clarissa meaningfully.
“This has to do with a person’s life. How could I just let you be, of course, I’m…” Clarissa puffed her
chest up and gave an insightful performance. However, before she could finish her sentence, a huge

“Move!” Jack’s voice was cold and filled with murderous intentions. Clarissa was so frightened that she
had goosebumps. She subconsciously moved to the side
