Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 166

Chapter 166 A Check Worth Five Hundred Thousand Dollars

Madelynn kept crying, as if she couldn’t find the right words.

“Before this, I told you that your corneas came from my father. But the other day, my mother told me that I was wrong. She also said that the death of my father’s anniversary is actually one day later than the date that we know. She was afraid of being poor, and she couldn’t think of any other way to raise me on her own. It just so happened that the dean of the hospital was a distant relative of ours. I don’t know what my mother did, but she managed to make everyone believe that the donor of your cornea was my father. She thought that you were destined for great things, so… Damien, my mother lied to both of us for so many years, and I’ve always thought of myself as your savior. I’m so sorry, Damien. I’m so ashamed! I’ve already told my mother off for this.”

This was the cover story Madelynn and Monica had decided on.

They felt that they wouldn’t be able to keep the truth under wraps now that Theresa was awake. Damien would find out sooner or later, and they would be better off telling him the ” truth” on their own. By pushing the blame on Monica, at the very least, Madelynn would remain innocent in his eyes.

“What?” Damien looked like it was his first time hearing this. “Then, who’s the actual donor of my corneas?”

He didn’t seem to know anything about this. Theresa and Clarissa hadn’t told him anything.

“I don’t know, Damien. I’m sorry. I brought your house deed back, and I’m too ashamed to stay there anymore. I can’t believe I’ve been thinking of myself as your savior all these years.” Madelynn buried her face in her hands as she wept.

“Alright, alright. You can continue to stay there. Now, go home and spend the holidays with your mother.” Damien was telling her to leave.

“Don’t you blame me?” she asked.

“No, I don’t.”

“I’ll get going, then. Aren’t you going to see me off?” Madelynn looked reluctant to leave.

“I need to accompany my wife.”

Madelynn gritted her teeth and left.

Damien went upstairs.

At the same time, the door to the other room on the first floor shut silently.

Theresa had already gone to sleep, but she woke up to go to the washroom. She opened the door and saw Damien chatting with another woman.

She knew it wasn’t good to eavesdrop, but she did it for her daughter’s sake. As she stood

there and listened to them for a while, she didn’t expect to hear this.

This meant that this woman and her mother had been enjoying the benefits of her husband’s sacrifice for the past six years.

Damien had handled it well.

Clarissa was tidying her things. Now that it was the holiday season, she finally had the time to do so.

“This is for you.” Damien held his hand out.

“What is it?” She reached out.
