The next day, Clarissa put on some light makeup and dressed professionally to work.

At one in the afternoon, the annual meeting commenced.

The meeting started off with Damien’s opening speech.

Sitting in a hall that could fill ten thousand people, she didn’t stand out from the crowd.

In contrast, Damien’s presence on the stage attracted everyone’s attention.

Looking at Damien, who exuded uncomparable charisma on stage, Clarissa couldn’t believe that she had been sleeping on the same bed with someone as great as him.

In his speech, Damien commended the audit department for its efforts in reforming the structure of the finance department.

Clarissa thought, ‘If I stayed at the finance department, I’d probably be one of the employees at risk of being fired. Damien must’ve thought about that and transferred me to the audit department before it was too late.’

Damien had always been looking out for Clarissa the best he could.

Thinking of this, Clarissa felt that it was about time she

    Ray gave Damien a look, but Damien didn’t say anything.Damien, meanwhile, shot Clarissa a dissatisfied glare.The reason was obvious. He was annoyed that she still wouldn’t come back home after so long.That also meant she had completely given up on their marriage, all because of Joseph.Plus, she didn’t even try to explain herself to him.They hadn’t been contacting each other at all in recent days.The two of them stood in front of Clarissa and Connie, their backs facing the two women.Connie immediately thought, ‘This is my chance! I’ll embarrass her in front of President Lawrence now!’“Clarissa, stop arguing with your husband. It’s not like he did it on purpose.” Connie lowered her volume, but she still made sure that Damien and Ray could hear her speak.Clarissa was befuddled. ‘How did Connie know about what happened between us? New East has definitely taken gossiping to another level.’‘Why’s she mentioning this in front of Damien, though? Is she just dumb, or is she

    Connie was satisfied to see the crowded lobby.“Hey, Connie.” Clarissa soon spotted Connie. “Let’s go.”“Okay, give me a minute. I have to pass my car keys to someone.” Connie reached for the keys in her bag.Joseph, who was standing in the lobby, turned his face to the billboard and pretended to read the leaflets there the moment he saw the crowd exiting the lift.No one seemed to have noticed Joseph.“Oh, right. Clarissa, is he your husband?” Connie asked all of a sudden, making sure she raised her voice.“What? Who?” Clarissa still hadn’t seen Joseph.Instinctively, Clarissa thought that Damien had arrived. Her expression grew serious as her eyes scanned the crowd.When her colleagues heard the words ‘Clarissa’ and ‘husband’, they stopped in their tracks and shifted their eyes on her.After all, President Lawrence and Clarissa were always the topics of gossip.Everyone gathered around to listen to the drama that was about to ensue.“I’m talking about Joseph. I saw you guy

    Clarissa boarded the bus, her mind buzzing with worry.It seemed like Connie had tricked both her and Joseph.When she returned home, the lights were still on. However, Clarissa didn’t see her mother.Clarissa called out to Theresa, but nobody answered her.Swinging open her bedroom door, she saw Damien sitting on the chair in her room.Clarissa had expected it. ‘He must be aware of what happened today.’Strangely enough, she didn’t see his car downstairs just now. Where had he parked his car?Since he drove here, he probably arrived here way earlier than Clarissa, who had boarded the bus.From the looks of it, Damien was here to give her a ‘surprise’.Shocked, she tried to close the door and rush outside. Before she could do that, Damien wrapped his hand around her waist and threw her on the bed.He pressed his body to hers.“Where did you go that day?” he interrogated Clarissa with a cold voice.“Where’s my mom?”“I’m asking you. What did you do with Joseph that night?”

    “You’ve never told your cousin about me?” Damien asked as he leaned against the bed frame.“We’re going to get divorced sooner or later. What’s there to tell?” Clarissa’s eyes were closed.She decided that from this moment on, she would take back all the feelings and emotions that she had put into their relationship. She would maintain a distance from Damien until the end of their contract.“So, were you pleased when she mistook Joseph as your husband?”Clarissa didn’t say anything. Instead, she got dressed and prepared to eat.Damien saw a hickey on her neck. She hid it with a turtleneck sweater.He got dressed as well.Breakfast at Clarissa’s house was no match for Damien’s in terms of variety.Mrs. Cole bought them a baguette, orange juice, croissants, and eggs Benedict.She was rather nervous about Damien’s presence. “I hope you’re okay with this, Mr. Lawrence.”“It’s fine,” he said.Clarissa didn’t have eggs Benedict for breakfast.If she ate any, Damien would eat the

    When Damien got to his office, Ray was waiting for him there.It was the end of the year, and Ray had just assumed his position. There were a lot of things to be done.“Hey, what’s wrong with your lip? Did Clarissa bite you?” Ray said teasingly.Damien had already seen the wound on his lip when he woke up this morning.“I bet she’s left her mark on your body as well, huh? She’s not too bad! Then again, shouldn’t you be angry at her after what happened yesterday? Don’t tell me she got the upper hand.”“How do you know I haven’t left my mark on her?” Damien asked in return.Ray shook his head. “Man, I’m not sure if I want to see or hear any of these things. I can already imagine you two together.”“Alright, that’s enough. Get to the point.”Damien walked over to his desk and put his things down. Then, he lit a cigarette.Ray started giving Damien an update on his work.Damien gave him a few pointers. After that, he went back to his office.Someone knocked on the door.“Come i

    By the time Clarissa got off work, it was already past eight.She had deliberately stayed late so she didn’t have to leave with Damien.When she got back to her mother’s house, Damien wasn’t around.“Clary, you’re back! Are you hungry?” Theresa asked.“Yeah, I’m starving. I want some buffalo wings.” Clarissa missed its taste.“Oh, you! Why eat buffalo wings when you can have something healthy?”“Mom, I miss the taste of buffalo wings,” Clarissa said as she wrapped her arms around her mother’s neck.“Alright, alright. I’ll ask Mrs. Cole to make you some. Honestly, I don’t know who you take after, with your love for spicy food,” Theresa chuckled.“You, of course.”“I don’t…” Theresa suddenly switched tacks. “I guess you’re right. I loved spicy food when I was young.”Mrs. Cole made Clarissa some buffalo wings. She sat down at the dining table and ate them while watching TV.Their place wasn’t too spacious, so the dining table was in the living room.The doorbell rang, and Mrs

    Several days before the holiday season, Clarissa was kept busy. She constantly worked overtime.Damien hadn’t gone to see her for the past few nights.He was very busy as well, having to manage the whole corporation. He almost didn’t contact Clarissa at all.Both were both busy with their own things.However, Damien’s chauffeur would come over in the day to move the things Theresa and Clarissa would use during the holiday season to Damien’s house.Theresa felt uneasy.“Do you think it’s appropriate for us to spend the holidays with the Lawrence family?” she asked Mrs. Cole.“Why not? He’s your son-in-law, and I can tell that he treats Clarissa pretty well,” Mrs. Cole said.It was only at this moment that Theresa smiled with relief.‘Clary doesn’t know yet that Damien already found out about the corneas.’On the day before the holiday season, everyone got to leave the office early.Lily: [Clarissa, happy holidays. See you after the holidays!]Lily had sent Clarissa a message

    Clarissa remained in the courtyard, setting off all the fireworks. She refused to return to the living room.“Why isn’t she coming in?” Damien had taken off his coat and changed into loungewear.“Since Madam likes setting off the fireworks, let’s leave her be,” Mrs. Faber said.He looked at Clarissa’s figure as she squatted down in the courtyard. ‘Rather than enjoying herself, she probably just doesn’t want me to pick on her.’What did she have to fear if she hadn’t done anything wrong?Clarissa didn’t sit next to Damien as they ate dinner.He sat at one end of the table, and she sat at the other. This was representative of their roles as the patriarch and matriarch of the family, but it also meant that they were the furthest apart.“Cheers to our first year.” Damien’s gaze swept past everyone present, except for Clarissa.She didn’t know what he meant by this being their first year, but she still took a big gulp of red wine. Her face gradually turned red.“Clary, come here.”

    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
