Semua Bab Love in Twilight: Bab 161 - Bab 170

When Damien got to his office, Ray was waiting for him there.It was the end of the year, and Ray had just assumed his position. There were a lot of things to be done.“Hey, what’s wrong with your lip? Did Clarissa bite you?” Ray said teasingly.Damien had already seen the wound on his lip when he woke up this morning.“I bet she’s left her mark on your body as well, huh? She’s not too bad! Then again, shouldn’t you be angry at her after what happened yesterday? Don’t tell me she got the upper hand.”“How do you know I haven’t left my mark on her?” Damien asked in return.Ray shook his head. “Man, I’m not sure if I want to see or hear any of these things. I can already imagine you two together.”“Alright, that’s enough. Get to the point.”Damien walked over to his desk and put his things down. Then, he lit a cigarette.Ray started giving Damien an update on his work.Damien gave him a few pointers. After that, he went back to his office.Someone knocked on the door.“Come i

Several days before the holiday season, Clarissa was kept busy. She constantly worked overtime.Damien hadn’t gone to see her for the past few nights.He was very busy as well, having to manage the whole corporation. He almost didn’t contact Clarissa at all.Both were both busy with their own things.However, Damien’s chauffeur would come over in the day to move the things Theresa and Clarissa would use during the holiday season to Damien’s house.Theresa felt uneasy.“Do you think it’s appropriate for us to spend the holidays with the Lawrence family?” she asked Mrs. Cole.“Why not? He’s your son-in-law, and I can tell that he treats Clarissa pretty well,” Mrs. Cole said.It was only at this moment that Theresa smiled with relief.‘Clary doesn’t know yet that Damien already found out about the corneas.’On the day before the holiday season, everyone got to leave the office early.Lily: [Clarissa, happy holidays. See you after the holidays!]Lily had sent Clarissa a message

Madelynn kept crying, as if she couldn’t find the right words.“Before this, I told you that your corneas came from my father. But the other day, my mother told me that I was wrong. She also said that the death of my father’s anniversary is actually one day later than the date that we know. She was afraid of being poor, and she couldn’t think of any other way to raise me on her own. It just so happened that the dean of the hospital was a distant relative of ours. I don’t know what my mother did, but she managed to make everyone believe that the donor of your cornea was my father. She thought that you were destined for great things, so… Damien, my mother lied to both of us for so many years, and I’ve always thought of myself as your savior. I’m so sorry, Damien. I’m so ashamed! I’ve already told my mother off for this.”This was the cover story Madelynn and Monica had decided on.They felt that they wouldn’t be able to keep the truth under wraps now that Theresa was awake. Damien wou

When Clarissa got downstairs, she saw her mother sitting on the sofa.Mrs. Faber was serving the dishes, and they would soon be able to eat.Earlier, Theresa had secretly asked Mrs. Faber who the woman from the night before was. Mrs. Faber had told her that she was Madelynn York, a celebrity.Now, Theresa didn’t want to talk to Clarissa about Madelynn.“What are you doing, Mom?” Clarissa asked her. She wrapped an arm around Theresa’s shoulder and pulled Theresa close.“Joseph Moore, your brother’s boss, just texted me to wish me well. He has a way with words,” Theresa said as she replied to Joseph.The smartphone she was using was one that Clarissa had bought her.She still wasn’t too familiar with it, and typed slowly.Clarissa fell silent. ‘Why is everyone bringing Joseph up today?’She was just about to change the topic when Theresa said, “He seems to be a nice person. How old is he? Does he have a girlfriend?”“He just turned thirty, and I don’t think he has a girlfriend.

New East Corporation resumed operations after a weeklong holiday.Finally, Clarissa could go back to work.Compared to going to work, it was much more tiring to be at home every day. Damien had done his best to exhaust her.On her first day back at work, she received a huge gift. Inside, there was a high-end smartwatch on which she could receive notifications on the latest changes in the finance industry. There was also a calculator that was much more advanced than normal calculators. It could calculate functions, and there was even a handwriting pad people working in finance would use.She loved them all!These items were all sold separately, and it wasn’t easy to collect them all. Moreover, they were of the highest quality available.Clarissa would’ve taken a long time to collect them on her own, and they probably cost more than five thousand dollars in total.This time, she was sure that Joseph had given these to her.He texted her.Joseph: [How’s the gift? Practical enough
