Chapter 219 What Do I Have to Fear? Alter Connie left, Clarissa suddenly felt like she had been sapped of her strength.
The mop in her hand fell, and she slumped onto the floor miserably. Damien really did set Luke up! If not for that, Luke wouldn’t have thought of finding his own place. Theresa wouldn’t have gone to view the apartment, and she wouldn’t have lost her life.
Though Luke deserved what he got, it was true that Damien had been out to get Luke.
Clarissa had felt that something was wrong right from the start. She had felt uneasy, and all the signs were there.
In fact, Luke was the true son of Damien’s savior.
Why had Damien still given Luke a house and money if he was just going to set Luke up?
Even if he was forced to give Luke money because Madelynn had been there, what about the house?
Then again, perhaps Damien just didn’t want to keep paying for Luke’s endless greed…
Or perhaps it was because of Luke’s disrespect during the engagement. But was there a need to go to that extent?
Clarissa buried her face in her hands and cried again,
She knew there was no use in her going to the police. After all, Damien could cover everything up with a snap of his fingers. He definitely wouldn’t allow her to dig up anything. She would only be throwing straws against the wind.
There was too big a gap between their abilities.
The only thing Clarissa could do was to make herself as strong and powerful as he was,
It was so difficult, though…
She didn’t have his brains, nor his mental capacity.
Clarissa washed her face before sitting down on the sofa in the living room. She and Damien had to have a good talk.
The sound of someone unlocking the door rang out. Damien was back.
He saw her sitting there the moment he came in.
“You didn’t go out for a walk or anything?” he asked.
“Let’s get divorced,” she said.
She didn’t want to spend the rest of her days with him.
He might just suddenly decide to kill her one day.
Moreover, he didn’t need to do it on his own. Even if he did, he wouldn’t be linked to it.
“Go to Amestris. My parents are there, and they can…”
“I won’t go there!” At the mention of Amestris, she was reminded of Patrick. She guessed that Patrick had most likely mistaken Theresa for Madam Zell, pushing her off the building. Damien had covered for Patrick and made the whole thing seem like an accident. There was no way Clarissa could face Patrick
“How about Cascadia?”
“I won‘t go there, either, Emmeria is the only place I want to go, and if you won’t let me, we can just get a divorce! Yes or no?” Clarissa suddenly raised her voice and clapped her hands over her ears. She couldn’t stop thinking about the way Theresa had looked when she died she had been covered in blood,
Also, if she were to spend every single day with Damien, she couldn’t guarantee she wouldn’t kill him.
“Since you want to go, I’ll make the arrangements.” After that, Damien went out,
She didn’t want to know where he went, nor did she care.
Divorce and leaving the country were the only alternatives that she could think of at the moment,
It would be best to get a divorce. But if she couldn’t, she would study abroad and try to make hersell more powerful.
Becoming more powerful was the only way for her to be able to speak her mind and do what she wanted to do.
She wouldn’t have to act according to Damien’s whims and fancies.
