Clarissa was not as fortunate as Damien. When she was in primary school, her father and mother were both occupied with work. She had to cook for herself and her disappointing brother. Back then, she could not even reach the stove and had to step on a bench. Clarissa learned how to make ravioli by the time she was in sixth grade. The steps were not foreign to her. Shortly after, she came out of the kitchen with a bowl of piping hot ravioli in tomato soup. It was placed on the table. Damien’s grandfather was delighted. He felt like he had traveled back to the times when his wife was still alive and ate happily. Damien looked indifferent. Clarissa kept sneaking glances at him. She wanted to see if her performance was sufficient for twenty thousand dollars. After eating, they watched the television for a while. As time passed, Clarissa felt more and more nervous. Around ten o’clock, Damien’s grandfather returned to his bedroom so he could rest. “Let’s go to sleep,” Damien s

Clarissa did not know why Damien suddenly asked that question. Nevertheless, continued with her lie. “My ex-boyfriend or my current one?”Damien sneered. He did not expect her to attract so many men. “How many boyfriends did you have?”“Just two.”Two? “Just”?“Your current boyfriend. What’s his name?” Damien asked with a hoarse voice. Coming up with a person’s name was hard. It was then Clarissa remembered “Joseph Moore”, who had requested to follow her earlier. Hence, she answered without any hesitation, “Joseph Moore.”The world was huge. It was unlikely Damien would be acquainted with a random person named Joseph Moore, right?“His last name is Moore?” Damien frowned. “Yes. Do you have any business with him, President Lawrence?” Clarissa asked confidently. Damien ordered, “You’re not allowed to have sex with him during the period of our contract! I find it dirty.” The word “dirty” immediately made Clarissa’s face red. She was like an unwanted second-hand item. T

Clarissa moved into the company’s dormitory. It was just opposite her workplace. She could save on transportation fees and rent. Lily and two girls from the customer service department were assigned to the same apartment as Clarissa. The rooms that had sunlight were already occupied by the two girls because Lily and Clarissa moved in late. Initially, Lily wanted to argue with the two girls, but Clarissa said, “It’s not like we booked the rooms. Let them have it.”Only then did Lily leave them alone. Clarissa let Lily have the bigger room while she occupied the smallest room. There were no windows, so the ventilation was not good. Although it was not summer, the room was stuffy and humid. The room that faced away from the sunlight was obviously not very good. It was an apartment-based dormitory. There were many other units along the corridor. Clarissa’s unit was already in a bad section and her room had it worse. After washing her clothes, she would dry her laundry in the bathroo

Clarissa continued washing her clothes. She did not want to bother about those things. It was too tiring. “Clarissa, people are trampling on you. Aren’t you going to counterattack?”“Forget it. There’s no need. This kind of post will naturally lose popularity after some time.”“Could it be…” Lily tilted her head and looked at Clarissa. “Is there really something between you and the assistant director?”Clarissa stared at Lily.“I’m too lazy to talk to you.”After saying that, Clarissa brought her laundry to the balcony and hung them so they could dry. She was only worried about one thing, and that was if Damien would blame her for this matter. After all, this topic made it to the gossip forum. Once Clarissa had hung all her clothes, she took out her laptop and sat on the bed, Then, she continued typing her valedictorian speech. Lily wanted to say something else, but she closed her mouth upon seeing Clarissa was silent. In the end, Lily only said, “Don’t forget about the heal

Clarissa finally figured it out. Joseph Moore's request to follow her on Instagram prior was not a coincidence. He was not a scammer either. It was the rich man’s son that her brother had mentioned before. In fact, Joseph was a polite and talented person. Clarissa admired him. Introducing him to her might have been her brother’s one-sided wish. Clarissa smiled and said, “Asking you questions about economic law will be more convenient in the future, Mr. Moore.” “That’s right. In a few days, I’ll prepare some practice papers for you. Economic law is the easiest paper. You can pass by simply memorizing everything. As long as you’re willing to put in the effort, nothing will be a problem,” Joseph replied while adding remarks to Clarissa’s contact. Her name was saved as “Bunny In A Flower” in his contacts.“Clarissa, we haven’t celebrated your success in landing a permanent position at New East Corporation! I heard their standards were very high. My sister is truly outstanding.”
