Clarissa went to wash up. At the staircase, she could see some people carrying boxes. Damien was sitting on the sofa.

“Put them in the car,” Damien ordered.

“Oh, Mr. Lawrence! You’re so nice to Madam. You even bought all these snacks for her!” Mrs. Faber gushed. In truth, she felt rather awkward over the fact that her son was in love with Clarissa.

Damien lifted his head, and his eyes met Clarissa’s.

“She doesn’t appreciate it,” Damien mumbled, turning away quickly.

“Madam has been away for three years, so she must have changed. The changes aren’t very big, but you still need to be understanding.” Mrs. Faber tried to explain.

“Do I have to?” Damien looked at Clarissa again, sullen.

At that moment, Damien was filled with regret and jealousy.

He wasn’t with Clarissa during her worst days. Instead, another man grabbed the chance and stayed by her side.

But just like what Mrs. Faber said, people change. Before, he would have his way Clarissa and tormented her regardless of anyth

    After getting in the car, Clarissa felt as if she had left her heart and that her soul had floated out of her body. The good thing was, the university campus wasn’t a desolate environment. Besides, she really liked her current job. The driver sent them to Marble Garden. He got out of the car and even went through the trouble of carrying Clarissa’s boxes upstairs personally. Caleb and a few students were just returning from a game of basketball. Since they were passing by, they also pitched in to help.“What’s all this?” Caleb asked as he easily picked up one of the boxes.“It’s food he packed me for when I was in Genovia,” Clarissa said. She purposely emphasized the word “he” to tell Caleb that it was impossible for her to be with Caleb, and to make Caleb forget about her.“He’s much better than me. I can’t win against him,” Caleb admitted sincerely.How could he possibly compete with Damien Lawrence?His mother had once worked in Mr. Lawrence’s home. He had already lost b

    Clarissa’s intention was to push Chanel into requesting to borrow the money from Damien by herself. She never expected that Chanel would push the task back to her. “Thank you so much, Clarissa!” Chanel was delighted.Clarissa wondered silently, ‘Chanel probably thinks I’ll definitely be able to borrow the money for her, doesn’t she?’It had been the same when Chanel had wanted to foster Logan. She simply needed Clarissa’s help, and it was done.Clarissa had no clue whether Chanel had social anxiety, or was just terrified of Damien. Really, it was her own fault for not keeping her mouth shut and getting involved. She had made it seem as if she had a great relationship with Damien.Once Clarissa got to the office, she sent Damien a Whatsapp message.Clarissa: [The university is building houses priced at a tenth of those on the market. Chanel asked me to help borrow some money from you.]Damien: [So you’ll be her guarantor?]Clarissa was dumbfounded. He and Chanel had each ot

    Although Clarissa ignored the message, Chanel was deeply affected by it. She wondered when Damien would come.Once class was over, Clarissa immediately left the lecture hall.Beyond those two horribly timed Whatsapp messages, Clarissa’s class was extremely successful. Grading her course as excellent was nothing. Meanwhile, Chanel brought the recommendation form home. Her mind was fixated on Damien’s Whatsapp message, and she was busy thinking that he would be in Florin tomorrow. Chanel wanted to see Damien again more than ever. It was a shame Damien might not be able to see Logan even if he came here. After all, the child wasn’t his and had nothing to do with him at all. Childishly, Chanel kept flipping a coin. If it was heads, it meant he would come. If it was tails, it meant he wouldn’t. When the coin landed on heads, she would be excited for a while. When it landed on tails, she was devastated. In the end, this only served to intensify her anxiety. Logan was the

    “Um… I don’t want to buy the ones built by the university. This house is big enough for me to live alone. It’s convenient to live on campus.” Clarissa lowered her head. She didn’t tell Damien about her plans to buy a house in Ashland.That she still missed her daughter meant she still missed what she used to have with Damien. “You’re really not going to buy a house?”“Really.”“Then where will I live when I’m here?”Clarissa angled her head to glare at him. “You’re thinking too far.”She never had any plans to let him live here. “Anyway, have you found anything about the things I asked you to look into?” Clarissa asked. Even if Damien was well-connected, she supposed he wouldn’t be able to get any results so quickly. She purposely asked him this to keep him from talking about sleeping and living together.“How can I get results so quickly?” Damien shot back.It wasn’t because he couldn’t get any information that he didn’t investigate. Rather, he didn’t want to know about h

    Carrying Logan, Damien sped downstairs. If Chanel was alone, she wouldn’t have been able to move Logan at all.Seeing the easy way Damien put Logan into his car, Chanel started daydreaming again. It was as if she had gone back to her youth, when this dependable man was always by her side. Even his appearance was enough to give her a sense of security. On top of that, he was now carrying her child.Now that they were back in contact, they would only interact even more.Damien got Chanel to sit in the backseat to care for the child. He started up the car before making a call to the head of Florin Pediatric Hospital and passed the message that there was a sick child with him who needed hospitalization, and asked for a room to be prepared. The head of the hospital followed Damien’s instructions with haste.Chanel was delighted. ‘This man is omnipotent! He’s organized and well-connected.’Most women could not help but admire such a man, and Chanel was no exception. Chanel was already

    On Clarissa’s end, she was troubled when she saw Damien’s message asking her to bring dinner. If she didn’t do it, it would be petty and unreasonable of her.If she brought dinner, then she would have to bring a portion for both Damien and Chanel. She also needed to bring some porridge for Logan.Thinking about it, she prepared some food at home and made porridge. She even went to the canteen to buy some fish. Then, she packed everything up neatly. After getting the food, Clarissa realized she hadn’t asked where Damien was.Clarissa: [Where are you? Let me know.]Clarissa was about to head out to the campus entrance and call for a cab. She was worried she would get no response if she only sent the message to one person and wouldn't have an address to give the driver, so she texted both Damien and Chanel. Damien was the one who sent her the address, but Chanel didn’t reply.Chanel thought it was wonderful to have only herself and Damien in the room while Logan slept. When Clari

    “I don’t cook a lot anymore. Let me know if it’s alright,” Clarissa said, since Chanel was there as well.Damien’s and Chanel’s food had been packed separately. Chanel was under the impression that she was a third wheel. She felt extraneous and uncomfortable.“Other than the fish, the rest is mediocre,” Damien commented.Clarissa was left speechless.Other than the fish, which she had bought from the university canteen, she had cooked the rest of the food.Thinking that Damien must have known this, she was sure he was teasing her to make her feel bad. Clarissa ignored him and watched Logan, who was sitting by the bedside.The fish was from the canteen, and Chanel knew this as she always ate at the canteen by herself.Smiling, she said, “Stop teasing Clarissa. Look, her face has gone red.”It was nearing December, and the sky darkened early. The ward did not have its curtains closed. The darkness of the night outside the ward was a stark contrast to Clarissa’s pale face. Her l

    Before Clarissa left the front desk, the receptionist passed her a name card, which she absentmindedly placed into her bag.When she got to Seth’s room, he opened the door for her.Seth was very tall. In his glasses, he looked like a scholar; very professional, giving off a sense of accountability. He also looked very charismatic and capable in a learned way.“You’re here.” Seth was only wearing a white shirt. “Yeah.”The way the two spoke was not distant at all, as if they had seen each other just yesterday. There was an indescribable sense of coordination and trust between them.“I found some information. Come in and we can have a look together.” Seth then hit the Play/Pause button on what was playing on the TV.The TV was displaying some photos and videos. “These are all pictures of Iris and Victor Benson. Victor has been sick recently. Rather, he’s always been sick, and has been so for many years. Iris has returned to Lotharia, so you should be safe for now. As for why sh

    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.
