Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255

New East Corporation President Lawrence In the following days, Clarissa rarely saw Damien. She was still sleeping whenever he left earlier. When he came back, she was already in her room.

They worked at different times, and so avoided seeing each other.

Clarissa guessed that Damien might have taught her a lesson for raging at him before. Luckily for her, he had been restraining his temper and desire since she was pregnant.

A few days before New Year‘s eve, Clarissa got a message from Lily on WhatsApp.

Lily: [Clarissa! Landon, Bethany, and I are planning to visit you this New Year‘s eve. What do you think? Since you‘re pregnant, you‘ve stopped having fun with us.]

Clarissa knew she had to ask Damien if they could come. What if Damien was in a bad mood when they arrived? Damien might kick them out disrespectfully.

Even so, Clarissa couldn‘t be bothered to text Damien. She took a screenshot of Lily‘s question on WhatsApp and sent him that, followed by a question mark. Damien did not reply to her.

Clarissa took a deep breath. It seemed she would have to get up early or wait for him to come home.

In the last few days, Clarissa felt she had been too rash the other day. She was so angry at Damien for his callousness that it had messed up their relationship. Now, she couldn‘t even beg him

At night, Clarissa sat in the living room watching TV. Damien finally came home at around ten.

“You‘re not sleeping yet?” he asked Clarissa. He didn‘t sound surprised at all. It was as if he had expected to see Clarissa waiting for him.

“Not yet. There‘s something I want to discuss with you.” Clarissa‘s voice was soft.

“About what?” Damien changed into his house clothes and sat down next to Clarissa.

“I sent you a text on WhatsApp the other day.” Clarissa looked up the chat with him. “I just wanted to ask you if they could come.”

Damien had seen the chat and knew what it was about, but he just didn‘t reply.

At that moment, he kept staring at his contact name saved on her phone. His name on her phone was ‘New East Corporation President Lawrence‘.

His name used to be “Stranger” on her phone, but she had changed it to “New East Corporation President Lawrence”. He finally had a proper name in her contacts, but just his last name. She probably regarded him as the same as the rest of her clients. One more or one less made no difference.

Damien had been restraining his anger lately. If Clarissa hadn‘t been pregnant, he would‘ve long taught her a lesson.

“It‘s your room. Whatever.” After having said that, Damien went to his room.

Clarissa was happy with his answer. She immediately sent Lily a reply.

Clarissa: (Sure. Come over on New Year‘s eve, Let‘s hang out together.]

Lily: [Did President Lawrence agree?)

Clarissa: [He doesn‘t care.]

As New Year approached, Mrs. Faber became busier. Damien hired a couple of part–time workers to help with the cleaning. Clarissa was the only one who wasn‘t busy at home. She was quite free, so she did nothing other than check her emails all day. She had been waiting for an offer from Kortel University.

Finally, New Year‘s eve arrived. Damien still went to work anyway.

Clarissa had been hearing lively sounds outside since the morning. The view from the eighteenth floor was gorgeous. She could almost get a complete view of the whole neighborhood from her window.

She remembered last year. She wasn‘t very happy with her life with him, mainly because of Madelynn and Connie.
