Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 509

Penelope Henderson was the source behind this announcement. Of course, she hadn’t made too big of a deal of it. She had secretly made a dating profile for Damien and put it online. Since Clarissa shacked up with Joseph the moment she came back to the country, Penelope naturally had to find a way to distract Clarissa. Obviously, Damien was the biggest lure she could use. Clarissa and Damien had to be at each other’s throats now, fighting for their son’s custody.

Meanwhile, Clarissa was cleaning herself up in Neil’s room. Then, she went to sleep on the bed.

“Mommy, this is the first time you’ve slept with me, ever!” Neil said happily as he changed into pyjamas.

“Then I’ll spend more time with you in the future, okay?” Although Clarissa was unhappy with Damien, she loved Neil very much.

“That’s great!” Neil was overjoyed.

Clarissa held Neil and he went to sleep.

It was only about nine o’ clock, so Clarissa found it difficult to fall asleep.

Bethany sent Clarissa a Whatsapp message.

Bethany: [Clarissa, isn’t one woman enough for your husband? Now he wants more? He just ruined your life, and now he wants to find someone new? Fuck! He’s a monster!]

Clarissa was utterly befuddled.

Clarissa: [What do you mean?]

Bethany: [How can you not know about such a big thing?]

After that, Bethany sent Clarissa the ad from the dating website.

Clarissa took a serious look at it. It seemed the president of the New East Corporation was looking for a wife. He was handsome and charismatic, tall and dark, with an annual salary over 100 million, aged 36, without any bad habits, was on the outs with his ex-wife. Now that he was divorced, he was looking for a woman around 18 to 25 years of age, at least 170 cm tall, pretty and with fair skin, caring and well-tempered to spend his life with.

What a fucking joke!

Of these criteria, Clarissa fulfilled none of them. The traits that she had were not ones that were asked for. She was only 168 cm tall, nowhere near 170 cm. She was also much older than the age range listed. Although she had fair skin, it was not the smooth and supple kind he was surely looking for. She held a doctorate, but that wasn’t something anyone was interested in. The wealthy didn’t care for wives who were learned. It was all about the looks.

Thanks to the bit about Damien’s 100 million annual salary, women would be approaching him in droves. Besides, he was also “handsome and charismatic, tall and dark.” It seemed he was the perfect candidate for a husband.

Clarissa put her phone to the side and stopped thinking about it.

Clarissa knew it was not all her fault, either. At least, when it came to her mother, it wasn’t. But when she thought about it, all of this was in the past. What use was there of bringing it up? It was pointless. Therefore, she didn’t say anything.

“I’m both his mother and his father, since I raised him. Now you’re regretting things? Who do you think I am? Why do I have to listen to everything you say? If he stays with you, then he’d end up with a stepfather as well,” Damien snarled.

Clarissa lowered her head, still silent. In this matter, she was indeed wrong. She hadn’t cared about any of these things for three whole years. Neil was older now, so she couldn’t just take him away. It wasn’t right.

“Then, can I take Neil to Florin for a few days?” she asked.

“No!”

Again, Clarissa was speechless.

Clarissa had planned to leave today. But since Damien wasn’t letting her have Neil, she could only stay for yet another day.

That day, she brought Neil out to play the whole day. However, it felt like she didn’t have enough time to spend with him.

That night, she slept with Neil in his room again.
