Clarissa wanted to block out the noise and go back to sleep, but it was too loud to ignore.

She got up, pulled on a robe, and went next door.

Damien’s bedroom door was open. His phone rang again and again, but he wasn’t around.

Perhaps he was taking a shower.

Clarissa knocked on the bathroom door. “Your phone’s ringing.”

He probably didn’t hear her, so he didn’t answer.

She knocked louder. “Damien, your phone’s ringing!”

He pulled the door open and appeared before her.

It was only for one second, but Clarissa still got an eyeful of his unmentionables.

She tried hard to focus on his face.

They were pretty much divorced by now, and he belonged to another woman. It wasn’t right for her to ogle him.

“What’s up?” Damien asked, standing there nonchalantly.

“Your phone’s been ringing constantly. I can’t sleep with all the ruckus.”

“If it rings again, you can answer it for me.” After that, he shut the door.

Clarissa felt both angry and confused.

The phone rang again.

She took a

    Clarissa went back to her bedroom and sat down for her class.She didn’t know whether Madelynn had gone to Damien’s bedroom, nor did she know whether they had done anything.She didn’t particularly care, but she couldn’t stop her mind from wandering a little.Life continued like this for a month and a half.During the day, she would sleep while Damien would go to work.Their schedules were completely at odds, so they didn’t see each other for days on end.Clarissa saw Grandpa Lawrence every day, though. When she woke up in the evening, she would go downstairs to eat and chat with him. She would tell him about her studies.“Clary, I know you went abroad to study because you were upset about your mother’s death. If you come across any problems over there, come home, okay? I’ll be waiting for you.” He patted her hand.“Okay.” Clarissa was touched.‘How can someone as kind as Grandpa have a grandson like Damien, who’s so ruthless and cruel?’On Saturday, Clarissa finally got to r

    Damien stopped thinking about these things, and instead patted Clarissa on the face roughly.Still groggy, Clarissa was startled awake and mumbled, “W-What’s wrong?”She opened her eyes, only to see Damien standing before her.“Why are you here?!”“Grandpa’s in the hospital. Come with me, now.” Damien looked furious.Clarissa wasn’t too alert after staying up the whole night, but when she heard this, she shot out of bed and changed her clothes without brushing her teeth or washing her face.Grandpa Lawrence had once said there was no cure for cancer. He wanted to retain the last of his dignity, which was why he had refused to go to the hospital. Now that he was hospitalized, he had to be in terrible condition.“How’s Grandpa?” Clarissa asked. She couldn’t help crying.“Haven’t you been waiting for this day?” Damien hadn’t smiled at all recently, and he looked grim.“No, I haven’t! I don’t want anything to happen to Grandpa. I’m not like you,” Clarissa retorted.She didn’t wan

    The next day, Damien went to work.Clarissa packed her luggage and left the villa.She had already booked her plane ticket the night before.Before the plane took flight, she received a text message from her bank. Damien had transferred one hundred million dollars to her account.Aside from that, his assistant had sent her a WhatsApp message. He had sent her the locations of the two houses in Genovia, along with photos of the house deeds and the details of the ownership transfer.It had been a long time since Clarissa had last received a message from this number.In fact, she had been very confused when she had first received his messages because she had saved his number as “President Shaw, computer company”.She had wondered why he was sending her information about houses.President Shaw: [I’m President Lawrence’s assistant, and this is my personal number. If you face any problems in the future, Mrs. Lawrence, you can always contact me at this number.]Clarissa smiled bitterl

    Joseph put the phone down, and his gaze swept over his apartment.He had planned on building a family and career in Emmeria, but Frank’s words were forcing him to turn against his plans.Frank was the one who’d told him to leave the country. Now, he was also the one telling Joseph to return home.“What’s wrong?” Clarissa asked worriedly.“My dad wants me to go back to take over the family business, but I’m just starting out in my career here. It looks like we won’t be able to fulfill our wish of starting a firm together.”This surprised her.Then, she asked, “When does he want you to head back?“As soon as possible.”Clarissa was in a dilemma. If she wanted to stay in Emmeria, she had to get rid of Damien’s baby. If she kept the baby, she wouldn’t be able to continue with her studies, and there would be no point in staying here. She thought of returning to Merania to get rid of the baby before coming back to study.“I’ve thought of something—we can go back to Merania together,

    At New East Corporation.Damien had taken a long time to settle his emotions after Grandpa Lawrence’s death.He thought about everything he had done for Grandpa Lawrence. Grandpa Lawrence hadn’t suffered a day under his watch. Though he had knelt down in front of others for Patrick’s sake, it was all in the past.Damien’s assistant came to his office.“President Lawrence, Joseph Moore is back in the country. He had a lot of luggage with him, so it looks like he probably won’t be returning to Emmeria. It’s just that…” The assistant hesitated.“What is it?”“It’s just that Madam came back with him. It looks like she went to an obstetrics and gynecology hospital today for her antenatal checkup,” the assistant said.Damien smiled coldly. They had returned together?It seemed she truly couldn’t bear to leave Joseph’s side!They were going to show him how loving they were.Initially, Damien hadn’t planned on interfering with Clarissa’s life too much. He knew she was upset, so he ha

    “Make him change it,” Damien commanded harshly.“Why?” Frank was surprised. He couldn’t understand why Damien was interfering with something as simple as a firm’s name.“I. Don’t. Like. It.” Damien enunciated his words.Frank smiled awkwardly. ‘It’s not even your firm! You’re so bossy that it’s scary.’“Joseph might be my son, but he may not necessarily listen to me,” Frank said.“Do whatever you can to make him change it.” After that, Damien left.When Clarissa was four months pregnant, she started working at First.She was pregnant with twins, and it was already showing.In the end, Joseph hadn’t changed the firm’s name even when Frank had given the former a tight slap.In fact, Joseph liked First very much.As one of the partners, Clarissa had her own office, and it was very spacious.Much more spacious than the one she had at New East Corporation.After all, at that time, she was only an assistant.She couldn’t stand to just laze around at home as she was a career-orie

    After some thought, Clarissa called Damien.She was using her old number.When Damien saw her calling, his imagination started to run wild.Finally, she had come to him.“President Lawrence, are you free?” she said expressionlessly.“You’re back?” Damien said sarcastically, “Why, I didn’t even know.”“I’ve been back for some time now, and I’ve started a firm with someone to feed myself. Yet, you’ve taken away all the projects that I’ve had my eye on, President Lawrence. I’m this close to starving, so I want to ask you to at least give me a chance,” Clarissa said.She knew Damien was fully aware of her situation. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be coming after her so pointedly.“What’s the name of your firm?” Damien asked.“Oh, First. It’s just a small firm and not worth your time.” Clarissa only knew a little about the meaning behind the name.Joseph thought she knew, but she hadn’t even read his messages.Damien gritted his teeth. “I’m free.”“Then, how about I treat you to a meal?

    Clarissa looked at Damien, a prune in her hand.“Don’t you want your business?” he asked.She walked over and sat down next to him.“Is this all you’ve got?”“What else did you expect, President Lawrence? I’m sure the projects you’ve been taking on lately are insignificant to New East Corporation, and auditing isn’t even your core business. It means everything to us, though. President Lawrence, can you please have mercy on us and let us go? Look at me, pregnant and having to wine and dine you. Life isn’t easy for all of us, right? It’s almost the New Year, and if I don’t manage to make any money, my babies and I are going to starve,” Clarissa said.“‘Us’? Who’s ‘us’?” This caught Damien’s attention.It had to be her and Joseph.“Oh, my babies and I.” She knew he didn’t like Joseph, so she didn’t mention him.Damien’s gaze landed on her belly. It seemed to be larger than average, and it was very round.He reached out to touch it.Clarissa wanted to shrink away from him.“Ther

    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
