Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140 Is Your Husband Really That Weak? By the time Damien went upstairs, Clarissa was already leaning against the bedpost while reading a book

She snuck a peek in his direction. His mood hadn’t improved at all over the past few days.

“Why are you in such a bad mood lately?”

After Damien got into the bed, Clarissa scooted over and stared into his eyes as she asked that question.

In the past, Damien assumed the reason she kept staring at his eyes was because she loved him. Now, however, he knew she was desperately trying to find anything that resembled Steven within him.

“Why do you keep staring at my eyes?” he chided.

“…” Clarissa was speechless. She couldn’t say anything at all.

Damien quickly pinned her down with his weight. After he turned off the lights, various images of Clarissa popped up in front of his eyes. She would always stare into his eyes. When she woke up, she would request clam chowder for breakfast. Her favorite dish to make so far was the shepherd’s pie. She would also imagine that Damien only fell in love with that particular dish because he had Steven’s eyes.

Damien didn’t know if he was Damien or Steven to her…

In the past, he made fun of her purely out of spite. Now, he couldn’t help but find his life ironic.

Damien got his revenge by tormenting Clarissa that night.

The next day, Clarissa was the only one going to work. Damien chose to stay at home.

“Are you sick?” Clarissa asked in concern, despite the fact that she had gone through a torturous night. “Do I look that weak to you?” Damien snapped. “Do you know how to drive? If you do, go ahead and pick a car of your liking in the garage. It’s difficult to flag a cab around these parts.”

“No. I don’t have my license yet.”

In the past, Clarissa didn’t have much money on her. It was already difficult enough to cough up enough money for Theresa’s medical bills. Even if she obtained her license, she knew it was impossible to buy a car in such a short period of time.

After Clarissa left, Damien asked for Luke’s number from his assistant. Then, he told Luke to drop by the villa for a quick visit.

The reason he chose to gift Luke a house was not only due to the fact that Luke’s father was his savior, but because it was also highly beneficial to enlist Luke as one of his subordinates. At least, incidents like that particularly embarrassing one in the lobby wouldn’t repeat in the future.

Half an hour later, Luke arrived at the Lawrence residence. He was quick to shower Damien with respect. “What’s up?”

“What’s the relationship between Clarissa and Joseph?” Damien leaned against the couch, his leas

crossed elegantly.

Luke had already received his share of benefits from Damien. That house was fully furnished. Not to mention, the decorations were lavish and luxurious. All he needed to do was to move his luggage into the house and claim it as his. The benefits that Joseph promised him, however, were all imaginary possibilities.

Luke was the type of person who would only look at the benefits.

“It’s just a one-sided crush coming from Joseph. Clarissa isn’t interested in him at all,” Luke explained. “She admires strong and capable people like you.”
