Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71 Falling For Him The moment he saw Clarissa, Damien glanced at his wristwatch.

“Are you skipping work?” Damien demanded with his decp and magnetic volce.

“Mr. Brooks said I could go back after I finish sending some documents to the State Taxation Administration,” Clarissa explained with a casual tone, at the same time emphasizing the fact that she wasn’t doing anything out of line. Grandpa Lawrence, who had just finished dinner, said, “I’m taking a stroll outside. Take your time to talk.”

Then, he left with a smile.

Damien sat on the sofa, folded his legs, and sized up Clarissa. After Clarissa was done doing the dishes, she walked out from the kitchen and grabbed her canvas bag from the table, prepared to leave. Good thing Damien noticed it soon enough and grabbed her wrist just in time. Clarissa’s bag wobbled unsteadily on the table and almost sell to the ground.

This was the second time Clarissa had sat on his lap. The first time, she did it in front of Madelynn out of spite.

“Are you trying to leave?” Damien narrowed his eyes as he examined her squarely.

With flushed cheeks and ears, Clarissa directed her glare to his face,

“Aren’t you the one who wanted me to move back to the dormitory? I’ve just visited Grandpa, so I’m leaving now.”

“For a young lady, you really have quite the temper,” Damien spat, making fun of her. Hearing his sarcastic remark, Clarissa was deeply irked by the word ‘temper’. Who was the one with a bad temper here? Her eyes grew red with sury and she sneered, “I wonder who’s the one with the big temper here.”

“Are you talking about me?” Damien continued. “I’m usually an easygoing person under normal circumstances.”

“Oh, really?” Clarissa was beyond speechless. Everyone in the company knew Damien had a rotten personality. Everyday, he would walk around the office with a ‘Do Not Approach Unless You Want To Die’ face. With that, he dared to say that he was an easygoing person? “Don’t you think I’m an easygoing person?” This time, he deliberately lowered his volume and said with a gentle tone to prove his point.

“I stand by my own opinion.” “What about you? When have you ever listened to what I have to say? One word from me and you’re already back home,” Damien asked.
