Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 480

Damien immediately had his men run a background check on the man in the picture.

The picture depicted a man hugging Clarissa affectionately.

Later that night, he asked his son, “Neil, do you want your mommy to live here?”

“Of course I do!”

“Then, just call her if you want her to stay with you.”

Neil stared at Damien before asking innocently, “Daddy, are you sure it’s not because you’re too shy to call her?”

“Why would I be shy? Here, use this phone.”

Neil took the phone, looking quite unwilling. He dialed Clarissa’s number; he had memorized it since the time he had called her.

After a while, the beeping tone faded and Clarissa picked up the call.

“Mommy…” Neil said in a soft tone.

At the sound of his voice, Clarissa’s mood immediately soared. “Neil! Is everything okay?”

“Mommy, when will your meeting end?” Neil asked sweetly, tilting his head to the side.

“Tomorrow evening,” Clarissa answered.

“Put him on speaker, Miss Johnson! We wanna hear his cute voice too!” Her students were squealing excitedly in the background.

Clarissa had no choice but to put Neil on speaker.

“What are your plans after your meeting finishes, Mommy?”

“Mommy’s planning on going back to school.” Clarissa’s tone softened when she spoke to Neil.

“So, are you still coming? Didn’t you say you’d stay with me?” Neil’s voice grew smaller. He was clearly unhappy.

“Oh…” Clarissa knew all too well how fragile trust could be. She couldn’t afford, nor did she have the heart, to break Neil’s trust in her.

Mrs. Faber led the two students to their respective rooms, but Clarissa didn’t get any.

“Where am I staying?” Clarissa asked, confused.

“Mr. Lawrence said you’ll be staying in the same room as him.”

Clarissa fell silent, not knowing what to say.

Rem and Lisa pretended not to hear anything and left for their rooms.

Clarissa pulled Mrs. Faber to the side and asked, “The same room, even after we’ve divorced?”

“Yes, that’s what Mr. Lawrence ordered. He didn’t ask me to arrange a room for you. You can discuss it with him again once he’s back,” Mrs. Faber said.

Clarissa had no choice but to wait.

Two hours later, Damien finally returned. There was a cloud of gloom on his face, and he looked slightly angry.
