Chapter 71 Falling For Him

The moment he saw Clarissa, Damien glanced at his wristwatch.“Are you skipping work?” Damien demanded with his deep and magnetic voice.“Mr. Brooks said I could go back after I finish sending some documents to the State Taxation Administration,” Clarissa explained with a casual tone, at the same time emphasizing the fact that she wasn’t doing anything out of line.Grandpa Lawrence, who had just finished dinner, said, “I’m taking a stroll outside. Take your time to talk.”Then, he left with a smile.Damien sat on the sofa, folded his legs, and sized up Clarissa.After Clarissa was done doing the dishes, she walked out from the kitchen and grabbed her canvas bag from the table, prepared to leave.Good thing Damien noticed it soon enough and grabbed her wrist just in time. Clarissa’s bag wobbled unsteadily on the table and almost fell to the ground.This was the second time Clarissa had sat on his lap. The first time, she did it in front of Madelynn out of spite.“Are you trying

Chapter 72 My Future Husband

Damien talked to Grandpa Lawrence for a while before heading upstairs.Before he left, he walked past the table and accidentally knocked over Clarissa’s bag.Her bag was already situated at the edge of the table. With one simple nudge, it fell to the ground and the insides spilled out. He lowered his body to pick up the books on the ground. Out of curiosity, he flipped to the last page and saw a memo. ‘May your hopes and dreams come true in life - Joseph Moore.’Damien’s face turned sour in a split second. On top of his words were the date and address of which the book was signed. It was Saturday at The Owlery.He realized that one of the pages was bookmarked, indicating that she had finished reading a hundred or so pages.It only took two days for her to finish half of the book!The second one was a notebook about financial and cost management, which was also given by Joseph. He flipped through the pages, noticing that the notes were neatly written with a lot of explanations in

Chapter 73 Mr. Unpredictable and Miss Irresistible

After work, Damien called Lily into his office.Fueled with horror and anxiety, Lily entered Damien’s office for the first time.She knew he was going to ask about Clarissa.Looking at Damien from a distance, Lily was so nervous that she was shivering from head to toe. Lily didn’t know how exactly Clarissa spent every single day with someone as frightening as Damien.“Did you and Clarissa meet Joseph Moore on Saturday?” As expected, the first thing Damien mentioned was Clarissa.At this moment, Lily felt as if she was undergoing a lie detector test. Facing Damien’s interrogation, she wouldn’t dare to lie to him.So, Lily told Damien everything that had happened that day; from how they went on a tour around Joseph’s accounting firm, to how Clarissa was looking forward to a professional working environment. She even filled Damien in about Clarissa’s decision to apply as an assistant in his accounting firm.“He only gave her a book? What about a notebook?” Damien pressed on.“Jose

Chapter 74 She Had Never Been That Friendly Before

The next day when Clarissa went to the office, she received an email from the human resource department titled ‘New Hires’.Looking at the title, she found it odd. Since she was already an employee working in New East Corporate, why would HR send this email to her? Wasn’t it more logical to post it on job-hiring websites or the company’s official website?She skimmed through the document. It wrote, ‘New East Corporate is building a new subsidiary called The Audit Department, which will be led by Germany’s famous auditor Lucas Smith. We are currently looking for potential hires from talents inside and outside the company. Applicants should have at least a postgraduate certification. Certified accountants will be given priority to this post.Aside from the educational requirements, applicants should also go through three rounds of examinations, the first two being written exams and the final one being an interview.’The sophisticated requirements had successfully drawn Clarissa’s att

Chapter 75 What Does This Have To Do With You?

Soon, both Damien and Clarissa were inside the car.“Honey, have you gotten off work? Do you feel tired?” Clarissa simpered with a gentle tone.“Not really,” Damien replied casually, sounding calm as he continued driving the car.“Oh. Well, I’m just worried about you.”“What are you worried about? I’m not tired. We didn’t spend too much time having sex yesterday night, so I’m fine,” Damien said casually.Clarissa’s face turned red all of a sudden. She wasn’t hinting at that at all.Why would he mention that all of a sudden?She coughed slightly as she tried to think of a way to change the topic. “I received the email about the new hires today. Is the company really hiring from within too?”“Lucas will be interviewing the candidates next week,” Damien said.“Next week?” Clarissa was shocked.If that was the case, she wouldn’t have much time to fulfill any of the requirements! She hadn’t attained her postgraduate certification yet, and she still wasn’t a certified accountant.

Chapter 76 Damien’s Gesture

After an hour, Clarissa returned upstairs only to find Damien sitting on the bed and reading a book.She sat in front of the laptop and looked through Damien’s translations. Though she didn’t understand a word of it, it still seemed oddly detailed to her.What surprised Clarissa even further was that there was another name underneath the German-translated resume, ‘Donny’.Clarissa asked, “Who’s Donny?”“Did I write that down?”“Yeah, see? It’s right here.” She pointed at the name on the screen.“You don’t have to care about that. Just submit your resume.”She was confused, but she had a feeling that ‘Donny’ was a name Damien used to hint at HR to get her through the first round of resume filtration. She supposed Lucas would be the only one to understand the person behind that name. Although Damien made it a point that he wouldn’t help her get the position, in the end, he still wrote his name down at the bottom of the resume.With the recognition of the president of New East Cor

Chapter 77 Damien Was Furious

While Howard was having lunch downstairs, he noticed Clarissa and Rebecca in the cafe.He frowned.The person most unhappy with the establishment of the audit department was none other than Howard himself, because that meant most of the staff in the finance department would be migrating to the audit Department. This would undoubtedly lower his status as the director of finance in the company. Of course, the almighty Mrs. Lawrence would get the promotion she wanted. Howard would have to endure Clarissa bossing him around.The second reason he didn’t want Clarissa to change departments was because she was well aware of the financial accounts in his department. As Clarissa had a lot of experience in finance, she would do a good job in the newly established audit department. Unfortunately, it would be a nightmare for Howard if the audit Department cross-checked all the financial statements in finance.In addition, Howard knew Rebecca on a personal level. When he was younger, the two of

Chapter 78 Stop Seducing My Wife

Damien stormed into Joseph’s office and slammed several documents on the latter’s table without saying a word.Shocked, Joseph reached for the documents. They were evidence of how Frank colluded with several other companies in an attempt to topple Damien’s father in the business world.Fear rose in Joseph the more he flipped through the pages.“Don’t force me to submit these to the court,” Damien said calmly as he sat opposite Joseph.Joseph’s face was chalk white. He knew this evidence was enough to send his father to jail for at least twenty years.“Is this about Clarissa’s decision to work in my company?” Joseph asked.Everyone in Genovia was already aware of Damien’s initiative to build a new audit department at his company. Joseph, on the other hand, suspected that Damien was building it for Clarissa. Now that Damien was here threatening to destroy his family, Joseph’s suspicions turned out to be true after all.“I don’t think I need to tell you what to do from now on, righ

Chapter 79 She Was Crying Again

When they arrived, Mrs. Faber was already serving dinner.With her head dipped low, Clarissa said, “Grandpa, I don’t have the appetite for dinner today. I’ll be heading up first.”“What’s wrong with Clarissa?” Grandpa Lawrence asked Damien the instant Clarissa left.At the moment, there were only the two of them on the dining table.Damien found it odd that nobody was talking at the table, and that dinnertime was so silent.“Job-related stress,” he finally replied.“Well, why didn’t you help her?” Grandpa Lawrence barked angrily.Damien couldn’t tell his grandfather that he was the mastermind who instigated the entire thing and the chief reason behind Clarissa’s sorrow.“You have to cook dinner for her later!”“Grandpa!” Damien glared at his grandfather, reluctant.“Just do it!” His grandfather, unfortunately, wasn’t like his employees, who would usually cower with fear with just a glare from Damien. The old man continued fiercely, “Do it now! I’m worried about Clarissa. She

Chapter 80 Why Are You Staring At Me Like That?

Damien went to the bed to read, while Clarissa sat at her desk to continue where she was left off.Clarissa found it amusing that both of them enjoyed reading.“Why don’t you join me on the bed?” Damien asked.“I’ll pass. I might get too comfortable and fall asleep. I still have to wash your shirt,” Clarissa said. Deep down, she felt reluctant to do it for him.“Alright. Stay there, then,” Damien said casually, and flipped one page of his book.The layout of furniture in the room was pretty much similar to that of her grandfather’s, with her desk situated in a way that her back was facing Damien.Sometimes, Clarissa could hear Damien flipping through the pages quickly. Sometimes, he would take a long time to read through just one page. If he stayed on a page for a while, she would assume that he had fallen asleep.Sometimes, she would turn around just to check if she was right.This time, Damien caught her staring at him. He promptly asked, “Why do you keep staring at me?”She
