Clarissa turned around, and saw Rebecca Steward exiting from another private room.Damien knew who Rebecca was. She had interviewed Clarissa for the position of her assistant in a coffee shop before.He wasn’t pleased about it. He said curtly to Clarissa, “I’ll be waiting in the car.”Clarissa couldn’t care less about his frosty attitude. Ignoring him, she started chatting with Rebecca.“Why are you here? Don’t you have work?” Clarissa asked.“Oh, I quit.” Rebecca replied, dissatisfaction evident in her glum tone. “You know Nicole, don’t you? She was from your company.”“Yeah, I know her.”“Well, ever since she became Joseph’s assistant, she’s been bossing everyone around constantly. The worst part? Joseph allowed it. Some of us quit because we couldn’t take it anymore. It’s really strange, though. Joseph wasn’t like this before,” Rebecca explained as she crossed her arms, sounding quite frustrated.Clarissa wondered, ‘Could Nicole be the cause? She’s probably blackmailing Jose

Damien gave Anne quite a big sum of money in order for the latter to keep his meeting with Theresa a secret. He also had Anne call Clarissa again at night and inform Clarissa of her mother waking up from coma.Despite her confusion, Anne agreed and didn’t ask any questions.Damien then ordered his assistants to do a thorough background check on Steven Johnson.Six years ago, Damien injured his cornea by accident. The hospital told him there was a shortage of corneas, so he was forced to wait.He didn’t tell anyone about his condition, not even his grandparents.Of course, this also included his parents who were currently working overseas at that time.It was literally the darkest period of his life. He was basically living in darkness every day, waiting for his turn to get a cornea transplant.One day, when he was getting hot water from the pantry, he got distracted and caused the water to overflow. He burnt his hands in the process.“The water’s overflowing.” A gentle voice so

Clarissa and Theresa chatted till late night.Meanwhile, Damien had been waiting downstairs this whole time. Around 8.50 in the evening, he received a Whatsapp message from his assistant. A Word document was attached to it.Damien’s assistant worked quickly and efficiently. He was able to track down Steven’s old subordinate, as well as the doctor who was in charge of Steven. From these people, he managed to discover the whole truth.After Steven fell from the building, he was sent to The Affiliated Hospital of Genovia Medical University. Having broken his spine as a result of that fall, even if Steven’s injuries were to be fully treated, he would end up being permanently paralyzed. So, Steven went to his doctor and told him that he didn’t want to add to his family’s plate.When Theresa went to the doctor’s office to discuss her husband’s condition with him, she heard that a young man was in desperate need of corneas. After that, she went back and brought it up as a side topic to St

Clarissa was struck with a cold chill throughout the entire afternoon.Still, there was one thing she was very clear about. Damien dealing with Howard had nothing to do with her.While the other departments gossiped about how Howard was taken away by the public prosecutor’s office, the audit department remained as calm as ever.After Clarissa got off work, she headed to Genovia Hospital.Luke happened to be standing right outside Theresa’s ward. He even looked behind Clarissa mockingly before asking, “Where’s your husband?”“Something urgent happened at the company today, so he didn’t come.” Clarissa entered Theresa’s ward straight away.Joseph happened to be sitting at her bedside, clearly absorbed in a conversation with her.The sight of Theresa looking relieved Clarissa feel.“Congratulations on your mother’s recovery, Clarissa,” Joseph congratulated.“Thank goodness that’s the case.” If things were to proceed as Luke had said last time, Theresa’s oxygenator would have been

”A-Are you for real?!” Luke jumped out of his chair and quickly approached Damien.“Yes.”“Do you have the guts to draw up a contract and let me sign it?” Luke was afraid that the house would be nothing but an empty promise.“There’s no need for that. I’ll have my assistant pass you the keys.” After that, Damien turned around and left the ward to make a phone call.Luke was stunned to hear those words. ‘I wasn’t able to extort money from him before, so why did he change his mind this time?’Soon, Damien re-entered the ward and said, “My assistant will be here shortly with the keys.”Luke was surprised once again. He had a feeling that this was a dream come true.On the other hand, Theresa felt deeply anxious. She told Damien, “You don’t have to do this!”“It’s nothing,” he replied.Clarissa thought, ‘What on earth is Damien thinking? Is he trying to show Mom he’s a great son-in-law?’The cost for a performance like that was too big, wasn’t it? To think that he had bought two
