Chapter 108 Clarissa Had Played Him Like a Fool

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
Clarissa had spent the day crying, and she didn’t feel good. When she got home, she put Joseph’s book into her suitcase.

Damien had already checked it once, so he probably wouldn’t do it again.

After that, she went to bed and woke up early the next day.

It was slightly after eight in the evening when Damien got back, and Clarissa was already deeply asleep by then. When he woke up, she was cooking.

“What are you cooking today? You’re not going to put too much salt again, are you?” he asked.

Clarissa was taken aback. She said in surprise, “I put too much salt yesterday? For which dish?”

“The shepherd’s pie. Were you trying to kill me with its saltiness?” he said teasingly.

She was even more surprised now. She had been making shepherd’s pie for years because Steven loved it, so she could make it with her eyes closed. How could she possibly have put too much salt? Perhaps it was because Damien was used to having something blander.

If so, she would put less salt in the future.

    By the time the meeting was over, it was already three. Damien was starving, and he asked his assistant to get him something to eat.After that, he called Clarissa. “Come to my office.”Over the phone, she could tell that he was suppressing his anger.She knew exactly what had happened. Howard had told her about it the moment he came back to the office. Damien had been embarrassed in front of all the senior management staff.Clarissa went to his office.“What did you mean by that, playing me like a fool?” Seated in his chair, Damien questioned her like he would a subordinate. He lit a cigarette, then threw the lighter onto his desk.“I’ve been making shepherd’s pie for at least a decade. I could’ve made it perfectly with my eyes closed, and it definitely wouldn’t have been too salty. Why did you say it was too salty?!” Clarissa was defiant. She didn’t back down after tricking Damien. On the contrary, she felt she hadn’t done anything wrong.“At least a decade? Do you like it tha

    Late, after work.Clarissa told Lily about everything that had happened, then asked how much her raise was.“Me? 2,000 dollars.” Lily’s eyes gleamed. “That’s pretty good.”Clarissa’s face fell. 2,000 dollars…She could have so many more pizzas with an additional 2,000 dollars a month.“Instead of coming out with me, you should’ve gone home with him. Who asked you to say such harsh things this afternoon?” Lily said. “You should go home after we’ve shopped around for a while. You need to strike the iron while it’s hot.”Clarissa silently agreed. She wasn’t an idiot; it wouldn’t be worth it for her to give up on a raise for the sake of her dignity.As they strolled around, they came across a shop that sold many local brands.Clarissa even saw Roy, a brand of sandalwood-scented soap that she’d used as a child.Before going to university, she had always been using this soap. She would be enveloped in the scent of sandalwood after bathing, and she loved it. She couldn’t buy it anywh

    #After some time, they were finally done.Yet, Clarissa had yet to even mention her request.Damien wasn’t reading. He leaned against the bed frame and gradually composed himself.No matter how familiar she seemed, she wasn’t that person. He was just lying to himself.“What did you use when you showered?” he asked Clarissa.“I saw a shop selling local brands when I was walking around earlier. They were selling these traditional soap bars, and I bought tons of them. They’re really cheap.” Clarissa’s face was flushed, and her limbs felt like jelly. She lay on the bed and thought about how she was going to bring up her pay raise.“Have you used it before?”“Hasn’t everyone? Except for you, of course.” Her eyelids were already drooping.“Why am I the exception?” Damien turned to look at her. At this moment, she looked lazy and sexy, and it made his heart race.“You’re rich, so you must’ve used some expensive shower foam. Also, you gave all the other employees such a high raise.” N

    Clarissa was in a good mood. She woke up early the next day to prepare breakfast for Damien.On this day, she purposely prepared a meal meant for two people. She seared a fish and split it in half, one half for each of them. She also stir-fried some shrimp and sautéed some vegetables. Finally, she made risotto for Damien again.He was the president of a company and was always busy, and he was a man. It was only natural for him to eat more.When Damien came downstairs for breakfast, he saw the lunchboxes on the dining table.“Are you going to bluff me again this time?” he asked.“No, I’m not. We’re having the same thing.” Clarissa opened the lunchboxes and showed him.Damien didn’t say anything. He was very satisfied.After some thought, Clarissa asked, “Where did you and Madelynn go the other day? When she ate the food I cooked, I mean.”“It was the anniversary of her father’s death.”“Oh.” She felt extremely disappointed.It just so happened that the anniversary of Steven’s

    When Clarissa was done eating, she washed her lunch box and found that she still had some time to rest. She scrolled around on her phone for a while.Then, she happened to see that Madelynn had commented on Damien’s post. The woman had posted a salivating expression, and also wrote something else.Madelynn: [Wow, it looks delicious!]Clarissa’s smile immediately disappeared as an unsettling feeling took over her.She knew that Madelynn’s every step was calculated, and she wondered what the latter was up to this time.Damien soon replied to Madelynn.Damien: [Clarissa made this.]Madelynn’s comment was buried among a ton of other comments, so this small interaction didn’t catch anyone’s attention. Clarissa suppressed her rage and replied to Madelynn.Clarissa: [If you want some, you can always come to our house. I’ll cook this for you.]She felt her response was one that showed how generous she was, while also emphasizing her role as the matriarch of the family.Madelynn rep

    Soon, the weekend came. Clarissa went shopping for ingredients to prepare for the meeting with Madelynn. She knew it would be a tough fight. When Madelynn arrived, Clarissa was still busy in the kitchen with Mrs. Faber. She was cooking a meal in an apron.Madelynn first greeted Grandpa Lawrence and asked about his condition before moving to talk to Damien. Damien chatted with her on the couch. Clarissa cooked a lot of dishes, including a plate of seared fish. She found Madelynn unpleasant, but Madelynn’s father had saved Damien’s life. It was only right that Clarissa did her part.“Time to eat,” Clarissa said and served the dishes.Grandpa Lawrence sat in the middle, while Clarissa and Damien sat beside him. During the meal, Clarissa thoughtfully asked Damien if he wanted some wine.“A drink? Are you allowing me to drink?” Damien turned his head to the side and looked at Clarissa with hooded eyes. Clarissa knew Damien was just acting in front of Madelynn to make her jealou

    Unbeknownst to Clarissa, tears fell from her eyes and dripped into the sink.Mrs. Faber was shocked to see Clarissa’s tears. “What’s wrong, Madam?”“I’m fine. I’m not feeling wel… I think it's my period,” Clarissa said.When she came out of the kitchen and passed through the living room, she told Damien, “You guys can continue talking. I’ll go upstairs to rest.”A few days ago, Clarissa felt a little bit of pain in her stomach. Her chest was swollen, too. As expected, it was her period.After she changed into sanitary napkins, she sat on the bed with her hands around her knees.A long time later, Damien came up. “Why don’t you go down?” He asked.“I’m on my period, and my stomach hurts. I want to go back to my place tomorrow, so I can’t make lunch for you.”Clarissa kept her face to the window the entire time she spoke. She hugged her knees with her back to Damien.Damien saw the hint of sadness in her eyes, and took a seat on the couch opposite her. Clarissa suddenly had a mo

    “Why don’t we leave together?” Nicole offered when it was time to get off work.“Nah, I’m going back to the dorm. It’s near. I still have to work overtime today, anyway.” Clarissa was quick to decline, for she feared that the previous incident might repeat.“I’ll be leaving, then,” said Nicole.“Okay.” Nicole went downstairs, and saw Joseph waiting for her in the office lobby.“Let’s go to the bookstore, Mr. Moore,” Nicole said. “Sorry for troubling you.”“It’s fine. About the certified public accountant, feel free to come to me if you have any questions.” Joseph seemed a little distracted when speaking to Nicole.He kept looking around at people getting off work in the lobby, but he never saw the one he was looking for…Damien caught a glimpse of Joseph just as he was leaving his office. ‘Why is that man here?’ Nicole was just a very ordinary employee. Damien didn’t know her well, but he had heard Clarissa mention her name many times. It was normal for the finance departmen

    Benjamin walked to her side and suddenly hugged her. It was as if there were thousands of words that could not be said. Jacey did not refute. It was as if the two of them had known each other for a long time. It was as if they had known each other for a long time."Your mother did a good job with this exhibition," Jacey said."It's good. After all, you're an expert in this field," Benjamin said. "Or if you have any requests when you get married, tell my mother and let her customize the most beautiful jewelry for you.""Married?" Jacey didn't understand.She had never thought about marriage. Why did she feel so close to her when Benjamin mentioned it?She still felt quite confused."I'll treat you to a meal later?" Benjamin said. "What do you want to eat?"Jacey's eyes lit up. "Hotpot? How about a hotpot?"Benjamin smiled and said, "I thought you had a profound hobby. This is it."Jacey smiled again.Jacey didn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people, so she chose the

    Kenny smoked as he spoke. He had the look of a veteran in society. It was hard not to believe that he was a nouveau riche who did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates to save money."Sir, you've found the right person. Come and take a look." The workshop owner said. Then, he whispered a few words into Kenny's ear and asked, "Can you accept it?""What's so unacceptable about that? I'm definitely showing it to Party A. These people grew up in the countryside. What kind of milk have they drunk? I can't tell if it's true or not," Kenny said."Alright, alright," the workshop owner said with a smile."Just don't make it obvious. I'll go take a look at the manufacturing workshop." Kenny said.The owner of the workshop was initially quite shy, but Kenny said that he had ordered a lot, so the other party agreed.As soon as he entered the workshop, Jacey secretly turned on the pinhole camera when the workshop owner was not paying attention and filmed the production proce

    Jacey felt that under Kenny's serious and unsmiling appearance, there was a soft and warm heart.This note looked like it had been around for a long time. It was unknown how long Kenny searched last night before he found it and gave it to Jacey so easily.Jacey left.However, she did not expect that something would happen on her first day there.She brought a vacuum camera and made her clothes look like rural women's. After finding the milk production point, she said that she wanted to order milk in large quantities because she heard that the milk here was very cheap.The people in the workshop looked at each other and said, "I'm not selling!"The people in the workshop were very smart and vigilant. Their workshop had a fixed delivery channel. This woman was alone and was unlikely to be here to order. They found an excuse and sent Jacey away.No matter how much Jacey dawdled, the other party refused to let her in.For a moment, Jacey didn't know what to do. She was quite depres

    Jacey was a little stunned. She really didn't know much about what the parents were talking about.Moreover, she hadn't interacted with Benjamin for a few days. Moreover, when Ashlyn came to visit this time, she didn't say a word about him. It made her feel very uneasy. She even wondered if he didn't mean that at all. It was all her own wishful thinking…For the past few days, Benjamin had not come to look for Jacey. She had not contacted him either.However, a few days later, Jacey received a Whatsapp message from Benjamin. There were many photos. It was a rather high-class living room. There were boxes in the living room. The living room was simple and noble, like a top-notch courtyard house.[This is the showroom and display cabinet for my mother's medieval jewelry. How about letting your mother take a look?] Benjamin said.[Where is this place? This place is so beautiful.][My mother's dowry. The courtyard house in Genovia.] Benjamin said.Jacey thought to herself, "As expec

    Today, Benjamin had already returned home."How is it? How's your first time meeting your in-laws alone?" Calvin teased Ashlyn."It's quite good. I'm preparing to hold a medieval jewelry exhibition and then let my employees learn medieval video skills. I said that I wanted to use their jewelry as an exhibition, but they didn't even want the deposit. How generous," Ashlyn said lazily as she leaned against the sofa."It's… it's over?" Calvin looked at Ashlyn and said in surprise.Benjamin sat there and smiled."What else?" Ashlyn asked."What are you going to do this time? Aren't you going to look for your daughter-in-law? Did you see what she looked like?" Calvin poured a cup of tea for Ashlyn.After so many years, Ashlyn still hadn't changed from her usual macho self. In fact, she was even more macho than before. Perhaps Calvin had been the one to deal with everything after marriage, developing Ashlyn's habit of not using her brain.Of course, it only meant that she didn't use

    For some reason, Ashlyn felt like crying when she saw this. In the past, these jewelry had traveled to another country. Now, these jewelry were all back with stories.She thought about how the person who owned these jewelry had brought them overseas and brought them back…She felt that the Irving family was worthy of admiration.Linda had gone out at some point. Seeing that Ashlyn was looking at her very seriously, she didn't disturb her.When she came in again, she was carrying a cup of coffee. The fragrant Americano she'd just ordered from the coffee machine on the first floor. It was made from good coffee beans.She handed the coffee to Ashlyn."Have a cup of coffee when you're tired. Anyway, these jewelry don't have long legs. They won't run away on their own," Linda said. "You can come and take a look whenever you want. I've always been here."Only then did Ashlyn feel that she had been watching for an hour or two, but she had always been like a pious primary school student

    On Saturday afternoon, Ashlyn drove to Jacey's house, a very simple villa.Ashlyn knew that writers liked to live in such a quiet place because they had inspiration in such a place.Jacey's mother, Linda, was already standing on her steps to welcome her.Linda was dressed in a Chinese-style robe. She looked very ancient, but because she was slender, she looked especially good. She looked like a fairy.Ashlyn was dressed in a very fashionable modern outfit. She was wearing a knee-length skirt, pearl earrings, and earrings. She looked especially round and beautiful. One look and one could tell that she was the kind of person who had never experienced the blow of life."I'm Jacey's mother. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Conrad." Linda reached out and held Isobel's hand. "Jacey said that you're coming to our house to take a look. I am so happy. I specially brought all the jewelry from the other houses here and packed them up. If these jewelry can be displayed in the exhibition and let everyon

    "Excuse me, how did you know about me?" Jacey asked."Oh, Benjamin's phone was on the table that day. He went to the washroom and I happened to see the photo album he was looking through. I picked it up and saw these few pieces of jewelry. You know it too. As jewelry makers, we won't let go of those rare jewelry no matter what. I asked Benjamin where these pieces of jewelry came from and he told me about you," Ashlyn said neither servile nor overbearing.She understood a girl's mentality very well. She knew that if the woman found out that the man had taken the initiative to leak her news to her parents, she would be very disgusted and feel passive. Therefore, she did not say that. Instead, she said that she had seen it herself. She even said that Benjamin was looking at these photos at that time.Jacey's heart would probably feel warm. After all, a man was looking at her photo behind her back. She should have a good impression of this man.Jacey really thought so. When she heard A

    After Benjamin returned home, he showed Ashlyn the jewelry he had taken for Jacey.Ashlyn was very knowledgeable. One look at this jewelry and she knew that it was priceless.Moreover, the girl wearing the jewelry also had extremely good skin and was extremely delicate.Calvin, who was sitting at the side, also watched.However, Ashlyn didn't just look at the jewelry. She said, "You only bought jewelry. Who is this person wearing jewelry behind you?"Ashlyn asked Benjamin gossipily."Don't ask," Benjamin said.Ashlyn smiled. "You said that you only took photos of the jewelry but didn't take photos of her. Aren't you trying to arouse my curiosity? Now that I'm curious, you're not making a move. However, I've been working on researching National Jewelry recently, so I'm lacking samples in this area. When are you going to ask this girl out? Let me take a closer look. From her appearance, I think she's dressed very well. Moreover, I can see her face from her bone structure. I think
