Haye’s Suits had the three shirts ready on a Friday. Clarissa reluctantly bid Lily farewell before returning to the Lawrence manor with the shirts.It had been several days since she had last seen Damien.After all, it was difficult for a normal employee to see the president of a company.Damien sat on the sofa while appraising her with a mixture of interest and anger.“Oh, back already?” he asked. “Where are the shirts you bought?”Clarissa pulled the shirts out of her canvas bag.It only took Damien one look to tell that the shirts had been tailor-made abroad. She hadn’t even bothered to change the packaging. This showed how little she cared about him.“You’ve gained weight.” He glanced at her chubby face.She had regained the weight that she’d lost when she was sick.“What?” Clarissa frantically touched her face and asked, “I’ve gained weight? How’s that possible?”Damien sneered. “Why not? You’ve been eating junk food every day.”Clarissa was saddened. ‘If I’d known I’d

Damien didn’t show any sign of leaving once Madelynn was gone. He ordered a steak, looking as if he wanted to have a good chat with Clarissa.Clarissa had been like a cock geared up for a fight, but the moment Madelynn left, she lost her spirit and stirred her coffee abashedly.She was afraid Damien would get mad at her. After all, Madelynn was his first love, and she used to have so many shirts tailor-made for him. Now that she had pulled such a prank on Madelynn, Damien was definitely going to get revenge on Madelynn’s behalf.As long as he didn’t do it in front of Madelynn, however, Clarissa didn’t mind.“How much do the shirts really cost?” Damien asked softly.He now knew what had happened. Clarissa had switched out the shirts that Madelynn got for him, and he himself hadn’t realized because he hadn’t bothered to look closely.“I’ve already mentioned several times that they’re 2,000 dollars apiece.” Clarissa’s tone sounded rather uneasy.“Where’d you get them from?” He look

The renovations for the audit department were done, and Lucas had officially assumed his position. Every day, there would be people having interviews there. Some of them had completed their masters, and some had even completed their doctorates.Clarissa went to Lucas’s office with her resume.Lucas looked to be around forty, and he was an easygoing and humble man. He was quite fluent in English, so the two spoke to each other without difficulty.“Miss Johnson, you can pass your resume directly to the human resource department. I just started here, so I’m not too sure about the situation with the employees,” Lucas said.“To tell you the truth, Mr. Smith, I submitted my resume to them earlier, but they rejected me. I really want to work in auditing, though. I graduated at the top of my class, and I was a scholarship holder. Furthermore, I’m working on becoming a certified public accountant, and I’m currently working in the finance department. Perhaps you could just take a look at my

Clarissa accepted Howard’s suggestion and started going to New East Mall for work. She was extremely busy with the project there, so she and Damien didn’t see each other during working hours at all. She would go to work and head home on her own, falling asleep almost the moment her head touched the pillow.On Friday, she went back to the company to sit for the audit department’s written test. There were two sessions, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. There was also one more face-to-face interview the following week.During the test, Clarissa bumped into someone—Nicole.The audit department had opened up its recruitment to the public, and Nicole had applied for a job. After all, the starting pay was 20,000 dollars, and there was no upper limit, which was extremely attractive. Nicole had made it past the preliminary exam and was here for the written test.Anthony was here with her again, because he heard from Nicole that Clarissa was working at New East Corporation. She ha

Clarissa went to the balcony before answering the call. “Why aren’t you back yet?” Damien’s tone was one of an employer talking to his subordinate. “Oh, I went to see my mom and took the chance to come to pack up my winter clothing. I brought her some daily necessities as well,” she answered. “When will you be back?”She checked the time. “Probably in a couple of hours.”“Damien, your wife sprained her ankle. If you two really aren’t in a contractual marriage, come and pick her up!” Luke’s voice rang out from behind Clarissa. He and Emily had crept up behind Clarissa, and Emily still had the towel wrapped around her. It was as if she was afraid that people couldn’t see her body. “You sprained your ankle?” Damien asked. “I’m fine. I just twisted it going up the stairs…” Clarissa choked up a little, suddenly feeling aggrieved. Her own brother was doing his best to humiliate her in front of an outsider. Damien hung up.There was no way Clarissa would allow Luke to see thr
