Chapter 48 Flirty Clarissa went into the other room as usual. However, Damien didn’t allow her back to his room. The next day was Saturday. When Clarissa woke up, it was already ten in the morning. Going downstairs, she saw Damien chatting with her grandfather at the dining table. She had no idea how long they’d been chatting, or when they had finished their breakfast. Just then, her stomach growled loudly. Damien glanced at her briefly before continuing his conversation with Grandpa Lawrence, as if he didn’t notice anything. “Madam, do you wish to have your breakfast or lunch?” Mrs. Faber couldn’t help but tease Clarissa.
“Oh, anything will do. Thanks, Mrs. Faber.” Clarissa was still not used to being served, so she felt sorry for having to trouble Mrs. Faber every time.
“Sure, let me make you something. I’ll be right back.”
“Do you have any plans today, Clarissa?” Grandpa Lawrence asked Clarissa. Grandpa Lawrence had always treated Clarissa like his own child, which was the exact opposite of his treatment of Damien.
Clarissa looked at Damien as she replied, “I visit my mother every week, and I’m planning to do so today. May I?”
Before, Clarissa accidentally exposed everything to Damien. Now, there was no reason for her to make up excuses to visit her mother anymore.
“Of course,” Damien said.
“Is Clarissa’s mother sick? Shouldn’t you visit her too?” Grandpa Lawrence was confused. He added sternly, “This isn’t how we raised you, Damien.”
Clarissa never expected Damien to accompany her. Deep down, she knew that everything between her and Damien was ultimately fake.
“Sure,” Damien agreed almost instantly.
His response only served to make Clarissa nervous.
