Love in Twilight

Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Liked Her Post Clarissa offended her boss and could not do anything about it. She could

only make it up by being more diligent and careful so that Howard would not find a reason to lire her.

However, there was one thing that Clarissa did every night, which was to send a WhatsApp message to

Damien’s grandfather. Clarissa had been messaging Damien’s grandfather every day since she moved

out of the Lawrences’ villa.

She sent him a lot of photos of South City, where she was supposedly on a business trip.

Damien’s grandfather asked her when she would be back, and she replied. ( Grandpa, the accounts

here are very complicated. It might take a while.) (Grandpa: I miss you!) Seeing these words that

Damien’s grandfather sent her, Clarissa teared up.

Her parents used to say this to her. No one said this to Clarissa in a long time. Although Clarissa had

many friends and classmates, friendship could not compare to familial love.

Clarissa replied. [ I miss you too, Grandpa! )

Damien’s grandfather took off his reading glasses and went into the living room with his phone. He

asked Damien, “When are you letting Clary come back? She’s been away for over ten days!”

“What did she tell you?” Damien was flipping through the pages of a financial magazine.

“She sent me photos of South City and said that the accounts there are very cumbersome, so she can’t

come back for a while. Damien, can’t talk to her manager? I know that I shouldn’t hinder her career, but

I’m really counting down the days with my illness…” Grandpa pleaded with Damien.

Clarissa was away for more than ten days, but she did not send a single message to Damien. Their last

chat record was from ten days ago. However, Clarissa happily messaged his grandfather.

This contrast made Damien feel left out.

Damien did not ask Clarissa to send messages to his grandfather on WhatsApp when she left. Perhaps

Clarissa did this out of her heart, or maybe, his grandfather was her last bargaining chip to return to the

Lawrences’ villa. Clarissa knew that Grandpa was Damien’s weakness. As long as she had his

grandfather on her side, it would be easy to control Damien. He guessed that Clarissa was anxious

because of her dire situation.

Even so, Damien did not want her to come back

Although they were in a marriage agreement, Damien could not tolerate being seen as another man’s

substitute. The thought that Clarissa might be thinking of another man every time they were intimate

angered Damien.

However, when Damien thought about the umbrella that Clarissa gave him, he became soft hearted

again. The way she spoke was very sincere, and shc purposely bought him this umbrella from abroad.

Dainien could change Clarissa’s current situation with a little effort.

He went to check out Clarissa’s Facebook account.

She did not post often. Most of her posts were reposted content, as well as some links to the

accounting exam.

However, she posted something yesterday morning. The caption was, “Feeling energized to start a new

day!”

She attached a photo of her breakfast which included an omelet, a slice of toast, and a small carton of

soy milk

Damien liked her post.

Then, many others, including Howard and other colleagues, followed suit and liked Clarissa’s post as

well. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

In a short time, Clarissa’s post received 108 likes.

Clarissa was surprised and thought, ‘Wow, Damien Lawrence can really work wonders! Why is he so

free to like my post?” For a while, everyone was a little confused about Damien’s attitude. It did not look

like Clarissa and Damien broke up. They looked more like they had a small disagreement and made up

after.

Everyone was nervous.

The next day, something even more bizarre happened.

When Clarissa entered the office, Howard greeted her and said, “Clarissa, you’re here! Every year, Star

of New East will have some substitute places to replace those who didn’t perform well in the training. I’ll

recommend you for the training this time.”

“Okay…” Clarissa was a little spooked out.

Not long after, Lily sent Clarissa a WhatsApp message. [ Clarissa, my manuscript that got retracted last

time just got approved again. The director also restored my place in Star of New East. Isn’t this

unexpected?)

Clarissa quickly understood that this was all thanks to Damien. Yesterday, he liked her post, which

instantly changed the entire company’s attitude toward her.

He could shake the company with a stomp of his foot.

Clarissa could not help but shudder. She wondered if Damien had thought about these consequences

when he liked her post.
