Chapter 12 Do You Feel Aggrieved Being With Me?
Damien replied coldly, “No.”
Clarissa was slightly disappointed to hear that answer, but she dared not ask further.
After all, she was a mere intern. Damien would not concern himself with her status.
Suddenly, a sound came from her phone. She picked it up and took a look.
Someone was requesting to follow her on Instagram. That person’s username was “josephmoore”.
Clarissa was not acquainted with that person, so she ignored it.
There were too many online scammers.
“I’m going to sleep first.”
After speaking, she turned off the bedside lamp while feeling flustered and ducked under the blanket.
The room was quite cold because of the air conditioner. Laying under the silk blanket was very comfortable.
Damien did not even turn his head and just replied softly, “Okay.”
He seemed to be occupied with work.
Clarissa buried her face in the blanket, only showing her deer-like eyes. She secretly observed Damien.
Her gaze unintentionally swept across his face. His outline was sharp and he looked distant.
In fact, his face did not look like Zach’s at all. They only looked a tiny bit similar when he smiled.
Still, Damien rarely smiled. Clarissa did not know why she mistook him for Zach on that day.
Upon thinking about Zach Stevens, she felt upset. It was truly awful when he passed away.
Clarissa hid her head under the blanket and silently shed tears.
At the same time, she started sniffling.
“Do you feel aggrieved being with me?” Damien’s calm voice could be heard.
“That’s not it.”
Clarissa’s voice was muffled by the blanket.
“Then why are you crying?” Damien asked again.
“I‘m just homesick.”
Clarissa gave a half-hearted answer. Then, she turned her back toward him to sleep.
Damien did not ask further questions.
Although Clarissa wanted to sleep, she could not.
