Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 237

Chapter 237 Unlike Her

Damien soon arrived at the hospital,

When he walked into Clarissa’s ward, he found that she was sound asleep.

Now that she was well into her pregnancy, she could only sleep on her side. She had a hand on her belly.

She was crying, her tears soaking into the pillow, and she was mumbling, “Mom, mom…”

Damien guessed that she was missing her mother again.

He wiped her tears away.

His touch was feather-light, but it still woke Clarissa up. She instinctively moved away from him, as if avoiding the plague. “What are you doing here?! Have you given the things to Rebecca already?” she demanded with a frown

“Yes, I have. Are the projects the only things you care about?” Damien pulled up a chair and sat down.

“The only people that I care about in this world are gone,” she said desolately.

She was insinuating that Damien wasn’t someone she cared about.

His life and death meant nothing to her.

Because of her belly, she could only lie on her side. Whatever it was, Damien had specially made a trip here to see her, and it would be too rude to turn her back on him. She had no choice but to face him, but she shut her eyes and refused to talk to him.

“Clarissa! Clarissa, how are you?” An anxious voice rang out from the door.

Clarissa opened her eyes, and saw that it was Joseph.

“How are you doing?” Almost instinctively, he grabbed her hand. “Why didn’t you tell me that something like this happened?”

He had been on a business trip the day before, and he had come straight to the hospital after getting off the plane. Joseph looked terrified as he thought about what had happened.

“I’m fine,” Clarissa assured him with a smile.

“I don’t know what I would’ve done if something had happened to you and the babies. I think it’s better for you to stop working from now on. I’ll take care of everything.” He looked vexed.

“That’s not necessary. The projects I’ve just gotten are enough to keep us busy for a year. I’ll be more careful from now on,” she said. The whole time, she totally ignored Damien. He sat there silently, not uttering a word.

Despite his silence, his face was steely.

Actually, when Grandpa Lawrence was in Florin, this was the way things had been. Damien had always stayed alone.

However, it was hard to go back to living in silence once he had experienced joy and liveliness.

“Clary,” he called. At the sound of his voice, the black cat jumped onto his lap.

This Clary was so obedient.

Unlike her.

A few days later, Clarissa felt much better. Joseph helped her to end the tenancy of her apartment, and she moved into his house.

Joseph’s family stayed in a villa as well. It wasn’t as large as Hill Villa, but at least, there were more people around. The atmosphere was also much warmer. There were three housekeepers, as well as Joseph’s parents. The room Joseph had picked out for Clarissa was on the first floor. It was the largest one, and

it faced the sun.

On Clarissa’s first day there, the housekeeper made her chicken soup, and it tasted great. It was definitely a lot nicer staying here compared to being on her own.

The only person who was anxious about Clarissa’s arrival was Frank.
