Damien stood up, went over to the sofa, and lit a cigarette.

Clarissa frowned and waved a hand to disperse the smoke. “How many times have I told you to stop smoking? You never listen to me.”

“Are you nagging at me?” He narrowed his eyes at her.

“Whatever. There are plenty of people who get lung cancer from smoking, anyway. Also, your teeth will turn yellow.” She slowly got dressed.

Damien stubbed out the cigarette. He looked like he wasn’t too attached to smoking, but Clarissa knew it wasn’t that easy for regular smokers to stop. They craved nicotine, and they generally wouldn’t be able to stop themselves from smoking. Damien didn’t seem to be like that, though. Instead of being controlled by the cigarettes, he seemed to be the one controlling them.

People always said that those who were truly powerful wouldn’t allow themselves to fall prey to addiction. It was obvious he was like that.

Why couldn’t he control his sex addiction, then?

    “That’s enough! You’re already thirty, so stop acting so immaturely,” Clarissa said while tidying up.Bethany threw a tissue onto the floor. “What are you talking about? Being twenty-eight is completely different from being thirty, okay? One is a woman’s prime, and one’s already going downhill. This soap opera’s pretty good, actually. I never liked to watch these, but I’ve been binging this the whole night. Maybe it’s because I’m imagining myself and Caleb in these situations.”Clarissa stopped. “Are you hallucinating?”“Whatever.”“Do you want to eat, or are you going to just keep lying there? Then again, you can do whatever you want here.”“You slept with President Lawrence this morning, didn’t you? Looks like you two didn’t get enough of each other last night.”Clarissa froze. After half a heartbeat, she said, “What nonsense.”“Come on, I’m not a gynecologist for nothing. How can I not tell when you’ve had sex?” Bethany’s attention finally transferred from the soap opera to C

    It was also on this day that Chanel went to Eden Investment Corporation to see Charles.He didn’t know her.“You are…?” Charles had only seen Chanel’s figure from the foot of the building. He hadn’t gotten a proper look at her face.“I’m Chanel Kirk, Clarissa’s colleague. I came to apologize to you today. I honestly didn’t think things through—the only thing that occurred to me was that Clarissa was working here, so I came here. I didn’t think about how it would affect you.”Charles was still unsettled at the thought of what had happened yesterday. If the worth of his office building had been affected, he would really jump off a building.He was polite to Chanel. Perhaps he felt that since she had the nerve to do something like that the day before, there was a chance that she would do it again.“What happened to you yesterday?” he asked.“Oh, it’s nothing, really. I had an argument with someone because my past was exposed, so I wanted to get revenge. I acted impulsively, but we

    Damien could pretty much guess what Bethany was up to.Since she wanted to pursue Caleb, she had to win his mother over beforehand. This would bring her eighty percent closer to her goal. And since she wanted to come over, this meant that Clarissa had to be around. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be any reason for Bethany to come.He had to admit, Bethany was a smart one.Mrs. Faber answered the door.When Bethany saw her, her eyes practically glowed. She dragged Mrs. Faber to one side and said, “Mrs. Faber, Clarissa knows that she didn’t handle the issue with Caleb well, but she couldn’t think of a way to patch things up with you, so she asked me to apologize on her behalf. Won’t you forgive her? This is all Chanel’s fault—she was the one who pushed the blame on Caleb, and he couldn’t be bothered to get back at her because he’s kind, you know? He’s just such an accountable and reliable guy. I’m sure he’ll be able to do well in the army.”Mrs. Faber glanced at Clarissa. Bethany’s words

    Bethany kept an eye on Mrs. Faber’s door while waiting for the latter to come out.As she had expected, it didn’t take long for Mrs. Faber to come out in the shirt Bethany had bought for her.Before Mrs. Faber could even say anything, Bethany said, “Oh, no, it’s much too loose for you. It’s okay. I’ll exchange it.”She walked over to Mrs. Faber and helped the latter straighten the shirt.At the same time, she shot Clarissa a look.Damien knew very well why Clarissa had suddenly returned. She was only here for Bethany’s sake. She had used him and Neil as an excuse.Lily, Bethany, and Clarissa met up at a pizzeria. The one they went to specialized in spicy pizzas, and they made sure to order those. Even if Lily was pregnant, she still insisted on eating spicy food.Bethany even ordered some alcohol, wanting to celebrate the fact she had managed to meet her future mother-in-law.She and Clarissa had a lot to drink. It had been a long time since Clarissa had last felt so relaxed. T

    Bethany and Clarissa both slumped on the table and fell asleep. Lily was left to eat on her own, and she paid when she was done.As she paid, she muttered, “Those two drunkards! How do you expect a pregnant woman to get the two of you back home?”She called Damien and asked him to pick Clarissa up. As for Bethany, she decided to leave her alone while waiting for Damien to come.At the same time, a grand wedding was being held at a luxurious hotel in Genovia.The groom was handsome, while the bride was elegant. They had just exchanged rings and were about to proceed with the final step when the crowd suddenly started to whisper among themselves.Joseph and Penelope were on stage, so they didn’t notice this.It was obvious to those who were offstage, though.Slowly, whatever the crowd was whispering about reached Shirley, Joseph’s mother.Chanel was the one who had started this rumor. She found a friend and told him about this, and then asked him to spread the word to as many peo

    Damien soon arrived at the pizzeria and nudged Clarissa awake.“Let’s go home. Look at how drunk you are,” he reprimanded.Clarissa couldn’t hear him at all, though.He lifted her into his arms with ease.She snuggled up against him instinctively, seemingly a little more lucid than before. She even said to Bethany dazedly, “Are you coming home with me?”Bethany mumbled, “Do you think I’m an idiot? Why would I allow my future mother-in-law to see me like this?”Then, she fell asleep again.Damien carried Clarissa to the back seat. A lock of hair fell onto her face, and she wriggled around, trying to get it away. When she couldn’t get it away, she started to whine.She only quietened down when Damien tucked her hair behind her ear.“Just look at how drunk you are…” he muttered. Then, he got into the driver’s seat.He called his chauffeur and told him to come to the pizzeria to take Bethany home.When they got back to Hill Villa, Shirley happened to arrive as well.Damien carr

    Damien knew Clarissa had transferred money to Joseph.However, he didn’t ask about it.Three years had passed, and the two of them no longer acted like defensive hedgehogs when on the topic of old flames or rivals in love. After all, they had just gotten back together, and he didn’t want to pick a fight with her.After transferring money to Joseph, Clarissa noticed that her conversation with Bethany was at the top of the list. She didn’t remember sending any messages to Bethany, though, since the had been together before this.She opened it up, and saw a few messages from Bethany.Bethany: [Hey, are you home yet? Are you still drunk?]Bethany: [My future with Caleb depends on you.]Bethany: [What does the guy you hugged and kissed look like? Send me a photo. Is he more handsome, or is President Lawrence? I bet he isn’t as handsome as your man.]She saw that there was no notification to show that these messages were unread.“Did you go through my WhatsApp?” Clarissa asked Damie

    Clarissa couldn’t help feeling that Damien wasn’t too happy. Perhaps it was because she hadn’t come home to see him.“You’re so petty!” she muttered once Neil was asleep.“Just be straight if you’re looking for trouble,” Damien said calmly.She thought, ‘What’s he thinking about? Does he think that I want to…’She ignored him, and turned her back to him.When Joseph saw that Clarissa had transferred money to him, he was lying on the bed. That night, he had gotten himself drunk.He wasn’t in love with Penelope. Clarissa had always been the one in his heart, but they weren’t meant to be.When Penelope came out of the bathroom in her pajamas, she happened to see Joseph’s phone on the bedside table. The screen had yet to dim, and she saw Clarissa’s transfer to him.She was already upset with Clarissa for disrupting her wedding, and her blood boiled at the thought of Clarissa contacting Joseph in the middle of the night.She grabbed the phone and threw it at Joseph.

    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
