Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 170

Chapter 170 Not Willing to Be With Me? New East Corporation resumed operations after a weeklong holiday.

Finally, Clarissa could go back to work.

Compared to going to work, it was much more tiring to be at home every day. Damien had done his best to exhaust her.

On her first day back at work, she received a huge gift. Inside, there was a high-end smartwatch on which she could receive notifications on the latest changes in the finance industry. There was also a calculator that was much more advanced than normal calculators. It could calculate functions, and there was even a handwriting pad people working in finance would use.

She loved them all!

These items were all sold separately, and it wasn’t easy to collect them all. Moreover, they were of the highest quality available.

Clarissa would’ve taken a long time to collect them on her own, and they probably cost more than five thousand dollars in total.

This time, she was sure that Joseph had given these to her.

He texted her.

Joseph: (How’s the gift? Practical enough for you?) Only Joseph would understand a financier. Clarissa: [Very! Thanks for this, but it’s not a small sum. I have to pay you back.] After that, she transferred five thousand dollars to him.

As usual, he transferred the money back to her.

As for the gifts… To tell the truth, Clarissa didn’t want to return them to him.

If he had prepared such a considerate gift for her, why had he given her flowers during the holidays?

After receiving the flowers, she hadn’t asked Joseph about it, and neither had he mentioned it.

Now, she was starting to suspect that the flowers weren’t from him. Clarissa: [Mr. Moore, did you send me flowers during the holidays?)

Joseph: (And risk getting on his nerves?]

Clarissa frowned. Indeed, this wasn’t like Joseph.

He probably wouldn’t cause trouble for her.

Then, who were they from?

Janet wasn’t the type to gossip, but she couldn’t take her eyes off Clarissa’s gifts. She even said that the person who had given these to Clarissa knew what was perfect for her

“I can’t take it! I have to draft a memo for Lucas to get each of us a set of these. It’s unfair that we have to watch while you use something so advanced.” Janet said. “I can’t stand it!”

Clarissa didn’t want this to be broadcasted. She would be in trouble again if Damien were to find out.

However, Janet insisted.

As her colleague, Clarissa could understand how she felt. She didn’t say anything else to stop Janet

Soon, Janet’s memo was submitted.

The next day, Lucas personally came to Clarissa’s office to take a look at her “tools”.
