Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 217

Chapter 217 She’d Married Such a Responsible Man! Clarissa’s gaze happened to sweep over a photo of Theresa.

At that, she teared up again.

But the sorrow didn’t last for long.

She knew Damien had something to do with Theresa’s death. She couldn’t allow him to see her in so much pain and sorrow.

That evening, Damien asked her, “What do you want to eat?”

“Anything’s fine.” She was seated at the bay window.

After he went into the kitchen, she sent a WhatsApp message to Joseph to ask him about Emily’s parents. She also told him to reply to her by text and not to send her any voice messages.

Joseph: (You’ve finally replied to me. I was scared out of my wits.)

Clarissa: (I’m fine.)

Joseph: (Emily’s always known my father, but he’s never told me anything about her background, and she’s always been quite mysterious. All this time, he’s told her to keep a low profile, but he hasn’t really watched her for the past few years because she was living somewhere else. She only came back to Genovia when she ran out of money. She wanted to extort my father, but he didn’t give her any money.)

Clarissa: (Is the apartment at Universal Gardens hers?]

Joseph: (I don’t know.)

Clarissa guessed that it was very likely for Emily to be the wicked Madam Zell’s daughter. The fact that Patrick had kept addressing Theresa as “Madam Zell” was probably because Emily had addressed Theresa as “Mom”.

Patrick had gone missing that day, and Damien went searching for him. It was possible that they were all in the same apartment. There was no way Theresa had accidentally lost her footing, so she had to have been pushed. If not by Damien, then by Patrick!

Patrick wanted to get revenge on Madam Zell. After all, she was the cause of his downfall.

It was unfortunate that Clarissa had passed out at that time. She hadn’t had the chance to go up to the apartment to see what had happened. That neighborhood was pretty much abandoned. There were no surveillance cameras around, and there were only a few occupied units.

Moreover, Damien had the ability to cover everything up. It was much too simple for him to

pull any strings at the police station, so she definitely wouldn’t be able to dig anything up there.

“The food’s ready. Come and eat,” Damien said.

“Okay.” Clarissa deleted the conversation with Joseph. “This is about as good as it gets.” He started eating.
