Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 525

The Whatsapp notification showed that a stranger wanted to add Clarissa as their contact. The verification message wrote, ‘This is Rebecca Steward.’

Clarissa was shocked to see that. It had been a long time since she talked to Rebecca.

After she added her into her contact list, Clarissa wasn’t able to greet her before she received a long message.

Rebecca: [Clarissa, what the hell? Why didn’t you contact me when you came back from overseas? Is it because you’re too arrogant now that you’ve received your doctorate? Not to mention, you didn’t come visit me as well! If it wasn’t for Penelope sending Mr. Lawrence a marriage advertisement in secret, I wouldn’t have found out that you had already returned! Are you even my friend?]

Clarissa just smiled when she saw the message.

Now that she couldn’t go home, she no longer wanted to blow-dry her hair. She replied to Rebecca’s message while rubbing her hair with a towel.

Clarissa: [I’ve been teaching in the University of Florin, so I’m super busy. I’ve been preparing my lecture notes while carrying out my duties as a lecturer. You know the drill, Rebeca. I’ve been meaning to visit you for a long time, but I’m afraid that I might not be able to fulfill the promises I made to you. How are you doing lately? And how long do you plan on staying single?]

Rebecca: [Ugh! I don’t want to talk about that! Howard is staying at my place these days.]

Clarissa: [Who?]

She had almost forgotten about that man.

Howard Brooks was the previous finance director of New East Corporation. He was also Clarissa’s former boss.

Rebecca: [Have you forgotten about your former boss? This guy spent three years in prison. When he got released, his wife divorced him and won over the house and the kids’ custody. He’s definitely a man who lost everything. That day, I bumped into him outside and ended up bringing him home. That night, we slept together. Now, he spends his days tidying up the house and preparing meals for me. He listens to me obediently and all, but why should I get stuck with a man like him? I don’t want someone else’s leftovers!]

It was obvious Rebecca was very frustrated and was desperate to vent her feelings to someone, but she was left without a choice.
