Chapter 52 Rulning Her Plan to Remarry Pamien’s secretary sent the meal to Clarissa, who was currently residing in the finance department
This gesture killed all the gossip instantly, and everyone looked at Clarissa with jealousy. After all, why did President Lawrence pick Clarissa and not them? What did Clarissa bave over them, aside from her pretty looks?
Plus, she just moved out of President Lawrence’s house a few days ago. Did the two already make up?
“I’ve already had mine.” Clarissa looked at the secretary hesitantly. “Just return it to him.”
“President Lawrence already had his too, and he sent this to you,” the secretary insisted, not giving Clarissa a way to reject. “Alright. Thanks, I guess.” Clarissa gave up and decided to keep the food for dinner later.
As she was about to continue working, she received a friend request from an account called Promised Fashion Boutique. Thinking that it was a marketing account, she ignored it.
After a short while, her phone rang. The caller was Damien
“Why didn’t you accept it?” He sounded monotonous and cold,
But Clarissa knew she didn’t anger him today, so she excluded the possibility of her being the root of his bad mood.
“What are you talking about?”
“Promised Fashion Boutique. They’ll be in charge of your dress. Accept it.” Damien hung up right after that.
That left Clarissa feeling confused, ‘Why do I need a dress?’
But since Damien didn’t explain. Clarissa didn’t bother to ask either.
And so, she accepted the friend request.
“You.”
Clarissa was perplexed. She didn’t even meet him at all today, so how could it be hier?
She chose to keep silent and looked out of the window instead. “I have an appointment with someone this coming Saturday, and the dress is meant for that day,” Damien said abruptly. “But… Shouldn’t our contract marriage be kept as a secret? Would it be okay for me to attend it with you?” Clarissa sounded worried.
“Everyone knew about our marriage already, so there’s no use trying to cover it up.” Damien held the steering wheel with one hand, his eyes focused on the road.
Clarissa thought to herself, ‘Of course it’s easy for you to say! You’d still have a bunch of ladies going after you even after you divorce me, but what about me? People are going to think I’m a gold digger, and I probably won’t be able to remarry again.’
Her dissatisfaction was written all over her face. A while ago, she was touched because Damien removed the egg yolk for her. Now, she felt like punching him. It seemed her mood was on a roller coaster today. …All thanks to Damien Lawrence! “Why are you unhappy?” Damien cocked his head and looked at Clarissa. “It’s nothing.” Clarissa sounded wronged, as if she was close to crying. “Are you afraid you won’t be able to remarry in the future?” Damien sneered. “You sure plan for your future a lot.” That made Clarissa feel awkward, so she decided to fake being asleep.
