Chapter 221 Leaving
Lily and Landon went to see Clarissa off when it was time for her to leave the country,
She hadn’t seen Damien since the day she took the morning after pill.
She didn’t miss him, either.
Clarissa buried Theresa in the deepest part of her heart and put a smile on to show the outside world.
She had never left the country before. This was her first time,
Damien had already found her a university, but she wasn’t going to go there. She had secretly applied to another university’s finance faculty. If she wanted to get her master’s, she had to attend a one-year preparatory course beforehand. She would take three or four years to complete her master’s.
By then, she would be twenty-eight years old.
Rich men like Damien liked to go for pretty, young things.
She would give him enough time and space to find someone new.
At that time, he would be looking forward to kicking her to the curb. “Clarissa, don’t forget to keep in touch with us,” Lily said worriedly. “Alright, alright. Don’t worry,” Clarissa said. Landon remained rooted to the spot long after Clarissa had gone past customs. “She’s gone. What are you looking at?” Lily said to him. “Huh? Oh.” He came back to his senses.
Damien’s car was parked a distance away from the airport. He watched Clarissa walk into the airport without even looking back.
She looked very happy.
On the plane, Clarissa couldn’t help thinking about everything that had happened over the past year. If not for the strange circumstances leading to them getting married, she would perhaps still be struggling to make ends meet, but at least Theresa would be alive. Nobody could predict the future, though. How could she have known that her mother would die such an untimely death?
When Clarissa got to Emmeria, she immediately got busy applying for her course and finding herself a place to stay.
She figured she would probably be able to forget her sorrows once she was busy.

She switched to an Emmerian phone number and stopped checking her Meranian number.
This lasted until more than a month later when she received a WhatsApp message from Joseph.
(Clarissa, where in Emmeria are you?)
Clarissa had found herself a studio apartment nearby her university. She was busy learning Emmerian and revising for financial and cost management. She had decided to go back to Merania for her exam in October.
‘Is Joseph in Emmeria already?’ She sent Joseph her location.
“I was done handing everything over to Rebecca and didn’t have anything else to do, so I came over earlier. I was thinking of studying here for a year, and then opening my own firm. What do you think? Should we be partners?” Joseph offered.
She gave it some thought. “I need to get my master’s first, though. I’m still struggling with the language.” “It’s no problem. You can study and work at the firm at the same time.” He continued, “Are you two… divorced?”
Clarissa shook her head. “Not yet. He helped me apply to Rale University, but I didn’t want to go there. I came to Kortel University on my own, and we’re not in contact, so it’s only a matter of time before we get divorced. Rich people have never been short of women, anyway.” “I asked my dad about Emily’s background. She really is Madam Zell’s daughter, but he sent her away after what happened back then. Patrick might have seen her before, but Damien definitely doesn’t know her. I’m so sorry about your mother’s death, Clarissa. My dad is partly responsible for this. Your brother and Emily are staying in your mother’s apartment now, and he’s really depressed. Emily had a miscarriage,” Joseph said. Line : 2.1-chanan” claricca was surnriced
This really was a year filled with misfortune. Not just her, but also for Luke. “I don’t know. Luke said she was the one who told him about it, but nobody knows how exactly it happened.” Clarissa lowered her head and slowly ate her food.
‘Did Damien get someone to do it?’
It wasn’t as if that awful man wouldn’t do something like this.
“Let’s not talk about this. When are you going to open your firm? I’ll provide the funding,” Clarissa said.
“This year, maybe. We don’t need that much funding, so all you need to do is provide your services.”
She nodded. “Which university are you attending?” “Kortel University.”
“Huh?” Clarissa was taken aback.
He was studying at the same university as her?
