Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 How Much Did He Give You?

Clarissa didn‘t expect her mother to notice this.

“Is there anything wrong with him giving me a check?” she asked.

“Don‘t you think it‘s really odd? Which husband gives his wife a check? And for five hundred thousand dollars, too. It‘s such a huge sum! It‘s like he‘s buying something. Clary. are you hiding something from me?” Theresa held Clarissa‘s shoulders, her face grim,

Theresa had always thought there was no way someone with Damien‘s status would go for a normal girl like Clarissa.

Clarissa was pretty, true. Her family background, on the other hand…

“Tell me! I didn‘t have any way to stop this because I was sick, but I can‘t stand by and watch now that I‘m better. I won‘t allow my daughter to humiliate herself like this! How much money did he give you?” Theresa started to cry.

She originally thought that Clarissa was happy. She didn‘t expect the truth to be like this.

Clarissa refused to say anything.

“Tell me! He already knows that his corneas are from your father. I thought he came to visit me after I woke up because of that, but I didn‘t know about your relationship...”

Clarissa lowered her head, subconsciously rubbing her glass.

No wonder he had insisted on giving her mother a house. He had even given Luke one, and he added her name to all of his assets...

There was a reason for his generosity.

It seemed Theresa had told Damien about this before the holidays, which meant that he
