Chapter 132 I Married Your Daughter Clarissa started working as soon as she reached her office. Because she was so busy, she had completely forgotten about her phone.
It wasn’t until Lily sent her a voice message that couldn’t be heard on the computer that she realized her phone wasn’t with her.
‘Did I leave it in the car?’
She then called Damien using the company line, asking if he had seen her phone.
“When did you put your phone in my pocket?” Damien teased her. “I’m out for a business meeting, so I’ll give it back to you later tonight.”
“Okay.” After hanging up, Clarissa asked Lily to text her instead. Lily said, “I heard Luke came earlier when Madelynn was still in the company. Why did your President Lawrence allow that to happen?”
Clarissa only replied to her with one sentence: “Focus on your work.”
“Oops! Please don’t snitch me on me, Mrs. Lawrence.”
Clarissa ignored Lily.
As for Lily’s question, Clarissa knew it was probably because Madelynn was Damien’s first love. It should be nothing for him to have her shoot her advertisement in the company.
When Damien reached the ward, Theresa was laying on the bed with her eyes open.
“Oh! So you’re…” Anne began, but Damien cut her off before she could finish her sentence.
“Please give us a moment alone.”
Anne didn’t continue, and promptly left the room.
Damien exuded a severe aura, one that pressed her into obeying him.
“You’re here again?” Theressa asked.
“Yes.”
“Do you know everything? Did Clarissa tell you?”
“Yes, I know.” Damien simply went along. The truth was, Clarissa never told him anything.
Theresa cocked her head and stared at the ceiling. “The reason Steven never told you was because he didn’t want you to feel burdened. He wanted you to live your life like any other normal person.”
Then, Theresa held Damien’s hand and looked him in the eyes. The way she did it was exactly the same as how Clarissa looked at him sometimes.
Damien suddenly had a bad feeling.
At that, Theresa let out a sigh of relief.
“Then, how did you find out?” Theresa continued asking. Only Clarissa and her knew about Steven donating his cornea.
“You told me just now.”
“Huh?” Theresa’s voice rose from shock. “So you never knew?!”
‘That couldn’t be it! There should be no reason for him to be here if that was the case! Why did he come to the hospital?’
“Then… How did you find out that I’m here?” Theresa noticed that Damien was dressed from head to toe in branded apparel. Her initial assumption was that Clarissa had reached out to him for financial help.
“I married your daughter.”
Theresa moved her lips slightly, trying to digest this new piece of information.
“So you really didn’t know?” she asked Damien again.
“Yes, I didn’t. And please, keep it a secret from Clarissa. I didn’t want her to feel burdened,” Damien said. “As for your sickness, I’ll try my best to heal you.”
Theresa nodded her head, helplessly. She couldn’t believe that she was the one who exposed the secret the moment she woke up. She made a big mistake!
