Chapter 521 That Middle-Aged Man

After Clarissa picked Bethany up at the station the next day, she rushed back to the university to attend the assembly. Hence, Bethany ended up attending the assembly as well.Since Clarissa was a lecturer, her seat was assigned on the third row. By the time she and Bethany arrived at the hall, the majority of the attendees were already there. She was afraid someone else might recognize Bethany’s identity as an outsider, so both of them kept a low profile.The huge banner hung in front of the hall wrote “Congratulations on becoming this university’s honorary professor, Professor Highmore!”Seth maintained his chivalrous appearance as he stood on the podium. The moment he noticed Clarissa, his gaze lingered on her for a second longer.“Doctor Highmore sure is handsome, huh?” Bethany whispered, tilting her head.“He looks fine, I guess.” Clarissa’s gaze remained glued on Seth’s form.Seth was in the midst of giving a speech about his feelings when he found out that he was going to

Chapter 522 Young, Hot Man

Bethany studied Damien from afar before realizing that she couldn’t nitpick a single flaw that he had. In fact, he looked as radiant as precious jewels.“That middle-aged man may be decent, but at the end of the day, he’s still a middle-aged man. Young and hot guys, on the other hand, are better in bed.” Bethany suddenly remembered something before she added, “Even though your man is good in bed, he won’t last for a couple more years.”“Are you judging people based on their looks or their bedroom performance?” Clarissa asked.Bethany just giggled. “Both, of course!”“I have his picture, you know. Why don’t I give it to you so that you can hug it to sleep?” Clarissa offered nonchalantly.When Caleb heard her words, he shot her a look before a smile appeared on his face.Caleb’s green outfit stood out in the midst of the white snow that blanketed the earth. It was true he looked very handsome.When Clarissa saw him, she couldn’t help but feel guilty. She had no idea what she shoul

Chapter 523 Don’t Let Our Son Know

Damien took Neil’s left hand while Clarissa took his right. This was Neil’s first time holding hands with both parents, so it was natural for him to be overjoyed.Once they reached Grandpa Lawrence’s house, Mrs. Faber was already in the midst of preparing dinner. She barely spoke a word to them. Clarissa knew the old woman disliked her at the moment. At the same time, she was too embarrassed to see Mrs. Faber. She wanted nothing more than to go home straight away.“Mommy, you should go take a bath. Look at you, you’re all wet!” Neil said.Damien sat on the couch and read his book nonchalantly. It seemed he was ignoring whatever the duo was doing.Meanwhile, Mrs. Faber just prepared dinner quietly in the kitchen.If Neil hadn’t pointed out Clarissa’s current state, she would never have noticed how drenched she was. Her back felt cold and wet right now. The snow had already melted into water and kept trickling down her back, making her extremely uncomfortable.“I don’t have anythin

Chapter 524 Climbing into His Bed

Clarissa had lost to Damien in such a wretched way. The moment he seduced her, she couldn’t help but crumble in front of him. She wanted nothing more than to slap herself in the face right now. How could she be so stupid as to yearn for him again?Clarissa put on her clothes in a haphazard fashion, but her clammy skin made it difficult for her.Someone clasped her bra for her at that moment. Clarissa noticed Damien standing behind her from the corner of her eye.“I’m going home tonight. Bethany’s still waiting for me at home. Besides, Mrs. Faber doesn’t want to see me right now,” she said.“Okay,” he replied.“Why don’t you find another woman?” Clarissa asked.Damien stood behind Clarissa while adjusting her clothes for her. She tried to pull a sweater over her head, but due to her clammy skin, he had to help her pull the sweater down.Finally, Clarissa was done wearing her clothes. She pulled her hair from beneath the sweater and flipped it outward.The scene stunned Damien.

Chapter 525 He Wasn’t Happy

The Whatsapp notification showed that a stranger wanted to add Clarissa as their contact. The verification message wrote, ‘This is Rebecca Steward.’Clarissa was shocked to see that. It had been a long time since she talked to Rebecca.After she added her into her contact list, Clarissa wasn’t able to greet her before she received a long message.Rebecca: [Clarissa, what the hell? Why didn’t you contact me when you came back from overseas? Is it because you’re too arrogant now that you’ve received your doctorate? Not to mention, you didn’t come visit me as well! If it wasn’t for Penelope sending Mr. Lawrence a marriage advertisement in secret, I wouldn’t have found out that you had already returned! Are you even my friend?]Clarissa just smiled when she saw the message.Now that she couldn’t go home, she no longer wanted to blow-dry her hair. She replied to Rebecca’s message while rubbing her hair with a towel.Clarissa: [I’ve been teaching in the University of Florin, so I’m sup

Chapter 526 You Really Want to Hear It?

“Huh? Rebecca’s ranting to me about her and Howard.” Clarissa lowered her head to look at her phone again.Rebecca: [Is President Lawrence with you right now?]Clarissa: [Yeah.]Rebecca: [Can you hand the phone to him? I want to ask him to talk some sense in Howard.]Clarissa didn’t think this was a good idea. Howard had been Damien’s subordinate in the past, but that was a long time ago. How could Damien interfere with Howard’s business now? Moreover, Damien was the one who had sent Howard to jail. The man had to hate Damien.Seeing her lost in thought, Damien asked, “What are you dreaming about?”“Rebecca’s messages,” she said as she dried her hair.She could still smell the sex in the air, perhaps because they had just had some.“Who?” Damien frowned, obviously not remembering who Rebecca was. After a short while, he said, “Oh, her. What’s up with her?”“Do you still remember Howard Brooks? Rebecca said he’s latched onto her, both in bed and in life. She wants you to talk s

Chapter 527 It Was So Ambiguous

Clarissa suddenly felt like she was nothing compared to Damien. So what if she was an independent director? She was lucky enough not to have been played like a fool. What was the point of being so highly educated? She didn’t have the courage to play with fire, unlike Damien.They soon stopped talking about Howard and Rebecca.Damien lit a cigarette and said with narrowed eyes. “It’s hard to find another woman as ruthless and heartless as you. You dropped everything and left without looking back.”He was probably thinking about the three years Clarissa had spent in Lotharia.He couldn’t move past it.“I…” Clarissa couldn’t refute this. “We were talking about Howard. Why has the conversation suddenly shifted to me?”“Mommy, you’re not leaving anymore, are you?” Neil suddenly walked into the room.“No, I’m not. I’m going to stay here with you.” Clarissa pinched his cheeks in delight.“That’s great! Mommy, let’s go eat.” He started dragging her out. “Mrs. Faber said she isn’t feeli

Chapter 528 Be With Me

When Clarissa woke up the next morning, the first thing she noticed was Damien’s warm chest.He had always woken up early, so she didn’t know why he was still in bed.“Why aren’t you up yet?” she asked.At the same time, she checked the time. It was already past ten in the morning.“I don’t need to go to the office while I’m in Florin. There’s no hurry to get out of bed.” After a pause, he said, “Clarissa.”“Yeah.”“Be with me.”Clarissa opened her eyes at his words. “Didn’t I get with you a long time ago?”She was starting to accept her fate. No matter how much she studied, she would never be able to surpass Damien, so she was better off just staying by his side. Everything that had happened recently made it clear to her.“I’m not talking about a contractual marriage. I mean that we should be together like an actual couple. From now on, you can tell me everything and discuss whatever problems you’re facing with me.”Clarissa thought about their past. She made her fair share

Chapter 529 I Want to Tell You a Story

After breakfast, Clarissa washed the dishes. When she was done, she said to Neil, “Listen to your Daddy, okay? I have to go back to the university to spend some time with my friend, and I’m busy with classes. You and Daddy can come to the university to have lunch with me in the afternoon.”“Okay. Bye, Mommy.”After saying goodbye to Neil and Damien, Clarissa suddenly felt like a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. After all, it had been four years since Theresa’s death. The hatred, resentment, and anger she had felt at that time had faded with time. Though she still felt uncomfortable at Madelynn’s death and Lucy’s imprisonment, Damien had told her that he had done it for her sake.In truth, it wasn’t really possible for her to move on from these things, but she wanted to give it a shot. She wanted to find an excuse for Damien and for her feelings for him.The moment she got to the paved path before Marble Garden, an elderly person stopped her.He looked to be in his sixtie

Chapter 530 The Past: Part 1

The snow seemed to have become heavier, but it was warm and cozy in the room. The old man glanced at Clarissa before speaking.“There had once been a renowned family back in the sixties, and the patriarch was a financier. He had amassed a huge fortune, and his family was high up the social ladder. Later on, because of changes in the nation’s policies, he moved abroad before getting married and starting a family of his own. Though he was highly educated, he was a traditional man. His wife was a woman of similar standing, and she was elegant and proper—the very picture of a perfect wife.”“After their marriage, the couple got along swimmingly. One year later, the matriarch gave birth to a baby. Unfortunately, she passed away during labor due to complications.”“The outside world knew she had given birth to a daughter, but everyone in the family knew that she had actually had twin daughters. This was kept a secret from everyone outside of the family, though.”“Twins?” Clarissa was sur
