All Chapters of Love in Twilight: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Though Damien took his temper out on Clarissa in bed, he didn’t make her look bad in public. He didn’t allow her to submit a claim for the money spent on the equipment, though.Clarissa felt that perhaps her mother was right. ‘It’s not easy for a couple to get together. Since our days are numbered, it’s better for me to enjoy them while I can.’She wanted to make up with Damien.After all, he wasn’t the one who’d set Joseph up.A few days later, Clarissa received a parcel from abroad. It was wrapped up nicely.She knew this was Damien’s underwear.She figured that she would probably be back at work by the time the parcel arrived, so she had it delivered to the company.During lunch, Clarissa put the parcel into a small bag and brought it out with her. She planned on bringing it to Damien’s office after she was done eating.“What did you buy?” Lily asked when she saw Clarissa holding something.“I bought something for him.”“Who? President Lawrence? What is it?”“Underwear.”

Three hundred thousand dollars? Theresa was stumped.She’d been in a coma for six years, and she didn’t have any money on her.She didn’t want to make things hard for Clarissa as well. She knew how tough life would be for Clarissa as a normal girl marrying into a rich family. If Clarissa were to ask them for money, she would be under their control.“Mom, it’s fine. I’ll go settle it.” Clarissa patted Theresa on the shoulder and pulled out Financial and Cost Management.She carried it with her everywhere she went, and the check that Damien had given her was still stuffed between its pages.“I have five hundred thousand dollars here. He gave it to me, so don’t worry. Grandma will be fine. I need to get this check accepted first.” She showed Theresa the check. “He” was referring to Damien, of course.Theresa felt like something was wrong, but she couldn’t pinpoint it.After paying the deposit, the doctors started operating.Operations to remove tumors always took a long time.T

“This is the money you gave me before. I still owe you 930 thousand dollars,” Clarissa said.Damien put the card aside. “What do you mean by this? Do you want to end the contract?”“No. Anyway, Grandpa’s sick, so we can’t end it. My mother found out about our contract marriage, and she told me to give the money back to you. She said that a person’s feelings are very precious, and they can’t be measured using money. I don’t want the rest of the money.” Clarissa sat down on the bed and wrapped her arms around her knees. She lowered her head and laughed, and then said, “I might be dirt-poor compared to you, but I still have feelings at the very least. Don’t I?”As she laughed, she suddenly started to cry.“So, everything you gave up is just going to go to waste? You used to be a virgin, and now… Don’t you regret it?” Damien asked.“My mom’s right. I have to retain the last of my dignity when we get divorced. At least…”“At least what?” Damien lit a cigarette.“At least I got to kno

“Director Conrad’s idea is pretty good. What do you think, Clarissa?”It looked like Damien was giving Clarissa a choice. He was, apparently, the world’s best husband and best boss.For the sake of her future in the audit department, Clarissa had no choice but to agree.“I’m not the best writer,” she said.“I’m not reading a novel.”“I’ll turn it into a day-to-day account, then.”“Sure. Remember to hand it in every day.”Clarissa left dejectedly. ‘Did Connie tell on me? Ugh… Why does Joseph keep causing trouble for me?’“Damien, are you teaching your wife a lesson again? You used me very well, didn’t you? I bet she’s going to hate me from now on,” Ray said through gritted teeth. “Don’t you think you’re really sly?”“No, I don’t. Get to the point.”Clarissa went back to her office and started to work.In time, she realized that keeping a journal was actually a pretty good idea.Her work was all over the place, and keeping a journal helped her keep her tasks on track. It made

Damien took out a card. “This is my secondary credit card. You can hold on to it.”“Do I need to pay you back for this?” Clarissa blinked at him.“Since you don’t want the five million anymore, you can take it that I’m sponsoring all of your expenses.”Clarissa figured that since it was almost payday, things would be better once she had her salary. She would take this credit card as an emergency measure.“What’s the pin? I’ll take it down.” She pulled her phone out and got ready to take down the pin.“000215.”“Does it mean anything special? It’ll make it easier for me to remember,” Clarissa said.After a moment of silence, Damien said, “It’s my birthday.”“Oh, right, your birthday. I forgot all about it,” she said awkwardly after a pause.In truth, she didn’t even know when his birthday was, let alone forget about it. She was afraid Damien would mock her again, like how he’d done when she hadn’t known about his age. She had to find a way to make herself look better.“Drop th
