Semua Bab Love in Twilight: Bab 411 - Bab 420

By the time Clarissa left Eden Investment, it was already four in the evening.On the way back in the taxi, memories of the past kept flooding her mind. Her mind was in complete disarray at the moment.After she got back to Marble Garden, Clarissa changed into casual wear, which consisted of a T-shirt and short pants.At first, she thought about resting for a while before going for dinner, but she changed plans when her phone rang.Lisa: [Miss Johnson, the basketball match is about to start. I’ve reserved a seat for you, it’s in the front row labeled C. Come here now!]Clarissa smiled. When she was still a student, she wouldn’t be able to squeeze through the crowd to watch a match, let alone secure seats. Now that she had become a teacher, her student was the one reserving a seat for her.As expected, a profession as a lecturer at university was way better than that of a normal white-collared job. Since universities were always brimming with club activities, Clarissa’s life would

After she cleared out all the books from the shelf, Clarissa saw a familiar face just opposite her. It was Caleb Mckenny, and he was organizing the books on the shelves.With tears shimmering in her eyes, Clarissa didn’t feel comfortable showing her vulnerable side in front of her student.“Why are you here?” she asked.“I work here. Miss Johnson, have you been crying?” he asked as he organized the books.“No,” Clarissa lied.“Miss Johnson, you’re five years older than me, right?” Caleb asked.“What?” Clarissa wiped her tears, obviously still in a daze.“You graduated from the University of Emmeria with a Ph.D. in the field of finance.”“I see you’ve attended the meeting held by the head of supervisors.” Clarissa tried her best to sound calm and collected.“So I’m right!” Caleb continued.“What do you mean by that?” Clarissa frowned. She didn’t know what Caleb was talking about.His gaze landed on Clarissa’s face, “Miss Johnson, do you have a boyfriend?”Taken aback by that

“Okay, then. Why don’t you choose the place for dinner instead, sir? I doubt my son will be able to suggest anything fancy. He’s just a kid, after all.” Mrs. Faber was delighted to know that Damien had agreed to dine with her son.“We can meet at the University of Florin. He can choose a restaurant on campus,” Damien said after giving it some thought.“You don’t have to look out for him. He can afford an expensive meal!” Mrs. Faber insisted.“That’s not what I mean, Mrs. Faber. I just feel like walking around the university after the meal,” Damien said matter-of-factly.The reason Damien wanted to visit the University of Florin wasn’t just because of Grandpa, but also because he wanted to walk the paths he shared with a certain someone in the past.That night, he used to stroll along campus grounds with her.“Oh, alright then.” Mrs. Faber agreed.“I’m sorry you can’t see your son’s crush in person.” Damien sounded apologetic.“It’s fine! You don’t have to be sorry about it. He

Clarissa deliberately used the stairs because she knew Damien would use the lift since Neil was with him.Worried that Damien might call out to her, she didn’t even look back when she turned the corner.Though Clarissa didn’t want Damien to know about her current position in Eden Investment, her secret would still be exposed sooner or later, since Ray had already seen her that day. Plus, the fact that she was an employee at Eden Investment wasn’t a secret.However, Clarissa didn’t feel as attached to them after she heard Damien addressing her as a stranger.Worried that she might bump into them downstairs, she hopped into a taxi the moment she arrived on the ground floor.“Miss, where are you headed to?” the driver asked.“Just go for now,” Clarissa said absent-mindedly.She didn’t know where to go, either.On the way, she looked outside the windows while reminiscing about the past. She didn’t know how to make out of her situation right now.Meanwhile, Damien strolled along th

Although she had changed into a new number, Clarissa could still recognize Damien's number.She stood up and paced the room uneasily.Before he called, she was writing a speech about her journey as a young lecturer in the University of Florin so far.It hadn't been ten days since the semester had started, and Clarissa was already tasked to give a speech as the representative of the young lecturers in the university at the orientation for this year’s new intakes.Throughout the three years she spent in Emmeria, she had never received any threats from Iris. It was as if her enemies had never existed in the first place. Neil seemed to be doing fine, and he didn't look like he was suffering from any adversity in life either.Thus, she was unsure as to why Damien was calling her right now.In the end, Clarissa decided to pick up the phone."Hello! Do you remember me? Why did you take so long to pick up the phone?" A childish voice echoed from the receiver, surprising Clarissa.When
