Chapter 225 Grandpa Lawrence’s Final Three Months
Clarissa continued chatting with Grandpa Lawrence
He didn’t want her to leave, but he didn’t say anything
Around half past eight, he had already gone back to his room to rest. However, he kept holding, Clarissa’s hand and pulled her into the room with him,
People had the tendency to become more childlike the older they got Grandpa Lawrence had always been the educated, refined type, and Clarissa had never thought of him as childlike Now, however, she could feel it. The way he was reluctant to let her go reminded her of a child,
This made her feel like she was being very cruel.
When she came out of Grandpa Lawrence‘s room, she saw Damien still sitting on the sofa
“Come here for a second,” he said.
He then went upstairs.
Clarissa guessed he was going to get the divorce certificate for her, so she followed him.
Unexpectedly, in the bedroom, Damien merely sat down and lit a cigarette.
“Grandpa only has three months left, at most. You should consider spending this time with him.” He looked at her. Damien was her mother’s killer, but Grandpa Lawrence wasn’t. Clarissa didn’t say anything “This is the marital settlement agreement. I’ve already signed it, so you should have a look.” He handed her a stack of papers.

“Not the divorce certificate?” She looked angry.
“I don’t want anything to go wrong during Grandpa’s final three months. We’ve been putting on a show for so long, and you don’t want to fail on the eve of success, do you?” Damien said,
Clarissa didn’t want to drag things out, but this was between the two of them, after all. If he refused to get a divorce, she couldn’t do anything about it.
Moreover, he said they had only been putting on a show.
She had merely pretended to love him.
Clarissa scrutinized the agreement. She would have to spend the next three months with Grandpa Lawrence, after which she would get a hundred million dollars and two houses in Genovia that were two hundred square meters each.
That was a lot of money.
She would probably only be able to make that sort of money if she had started working millennia ago. Moreover, she was studying now and wasn’t making any money. She could only live off the twenty million dollars Damien had given her.
She didn’t want the money, though.
“I cheated on you, so I don’t deserve that much money,” she said, putting the agreement down.
“You’re aware that you cheated?” Damien’s gaze was cold and sharp “So why are you giving me so much money when you know that I cheated? I shouldn’t even get a single penny.” Her chest started to heave as she said this.
