Chapter 194

Author: Andrea North
In truth, there was indeed something Clifford owed an apology for—he had orchestrated Lorraine's car accident. He had done so because Lorraine was Seraphine's only friend, and it was only for someone that important that Seraphine would intervene herself.

Faye's expression was full of contempt. "You haven't wronged me personally, but Seraphine is a good friend of Lorraine's, Clifford. You took advantage of Seraphine, so I have every right to stand up for her. You won't find Seraphine here, so you'll have to look somewhere else."

Damian was slightly taken aback. Faye had been so hostile toward Seraphine just moments ago, and yet she was defending Seraphine at this moment. He realized that Faye was truly all bark and no bite—after all, their marriage would have ended long ago if she were truly a malicious person.

Clifford's eyes blazed with fury. He suddenly recalled that when he was coming up earlier, two men had bumped into him, causing him to miss the elevator and to wait for the

    Clarissa eagerly shook her head. As the receiver of Clifford's affection, she knew all too well just how much he had adored her.Back then, he was just a poor guy with nothing to his name. Every time he saw her, he would smile shyly and occasionally sneak glances at her from afar.He wore his school uniform all three years of high school, but despite that, he easily stood out, thanks to his good looks. Many of his female classmates coveted him, but he only ever had eyes for Clarissa.Clarissa was the campus belle. Many boys liked her, too, but Clifford's feelings for her were the most sincere and passionate.After she went abroad, Jason once called and told her how much pain Clifford had been in ever since she left. Especially at night, he missed her so much it almost tore him apart.A few months after she went abroad, she met the man she thought was her true love. So, she had no time to care about Clifford. To her, he was annoying. She was afraid his clinginess would ruin her dre

    Clifford snapped out of his daze, a faint smile playing on his lips. His entire posture conveyed a sense of weary detachment, his voice sounding deliberately sarcastic while asking, "Do you love me, or do you love my wealth, Clarissa? Do you honestly think that I couldn't tell? "I had assured you before our marriage that I accepted your history with other men, only for you to brazenly commit infidelity after our marriage. You smiled sweetly in front of Mitchell, all the while lamenting to him my perceived incompetence. "Is this your so-called love, Clarissa? You managed to remain hidden only to reveal yourself with a sudden, devastating impact."Clifford wearily massaged his temples, feeling completely drained. He refrained from glancing at Clarissa, yet he knew with absolute certainty that her face was a mask of astonishment.Clarissa hurriedly explained, "T-That's not true, Clifford! I-I truly love you!"Clifford's gaze was utterly indifferent as he stated flatly, "You should

    Clifford's arm and wrist throbbed. He realized his recent emotional state was terrible, compounded by continuous misfortune. He slumped back heavily against the couch, feeling profoundly miserable. He couldn't articulate his current emotion, but the dominant feeling was an overwhelming weariness.He suddenly realized that in the five years he was with Seraphine, even when he was worn out, he had still been happy. He might have been physically exhausted, but his emotional state was never drained. Seraphine would always reassure him, saying, "You can rest assured that things will turn out better tomorrow, Clifford."Seraphine used to say that to him all the time. She would smile warmly at him, radiating sheer positive influence. Seraphine, however, was irrevocably lost to him.He couldn't help but sneer as he looked at Clarissa, thinking that she had only returned from abroad for a few months and had managed to plunge his entire life into turmoil. "You don't look like you were for

    Clifford furrowed his brows as he looked at Jason and Keith. Their combined financial loss represented an enormous sum, and Stephen had strictly forbidden him from offering aid. Thus, he was genuinely conflicted at the moment.He also refused to be treated as their cash cow. He saw no reason why he should cover their deficit simply because their venture had gone bust. Investments had risks, and whoever lost needed to face the consequences.He scowled as he explained, "I'm drawing the line here—I can't help you in this matter. You should be aware that gains and setbacks are inherent to business. You guys decided of your own volition to assist Clarissa as well. In addition, I have only invested because you two agreed to invest in the project."He certainly had his doubts then, but he simply lacked the resolve to resist Clarissa's relentless pleading.Jason and Keith stared at Clifford in utter disbelief, noting that the latter's expression at that moment was unnervingly cold and unfo

    Clifford undeniably held Stephen responsible for the situation, thinking that the latter was too preoccupied with his political campaign, which had resulted in a failure to properly scrutinize the venture. Had Stephen leveraged his influence to conduct an inquiry, the entire disaster would have been averted.He sounded utterly drained as he explained, "I'm not trying to blame you, Dad. I just thought that since you have such a strong network in this area, none of this would have happened if you had looked into it for me back then."Stephen sneered. "You've clearly been too preoccupied with romance and self-indulgence, Clifford! Did two years of luxury erase the years of scorn and contempt you suffered to reach this position? Cameron and Callum had already let me down. "You'd better not make any mistakes again! I have placed all my hopes and resources into you, so if you disappoint me again, I'll ensure that you learn exactly what the consequences are."I acknowledge my failure c

    Chester, hearing Clifford's murmurs, felt compelled to interject. "It's impossible to overlook how much Ms. Lodge has cared for you, Mr. Johansen. "You see, whenever you were out networking, she would contact me specifically to inquire about your well-being. She knew you had a sensitive stomach, so she would always remind me to make sure you take your meals on time. "She was also terrified of you being conned on the business side, so she would often stay up late to vet the competitors for you. You ought to know that the success of all recent partnerships is directly attributable to her quiet assistance. "She had dedicated herself wholeheartedly to your interests, Mr. Johansen."Having said that, Chester slightly shook his head, thinking that men often acted like fools when fixated on their first true love. Seraphine had dedicated her entire being to Clifford, only for him to immediately turn his back and betray her with Clarissa.Clifford swayed precariously, his expression loo
