Chapter 441 Don’t Worry About Me After Damien and Neil left Don’s house, the former received a text message on his phone. It was from Clarissa.
Clarissa: (How did you get to know Caleb?]
Damien didn‘t reply to her. Clarissa already knew there was a high chance he wouldn’t reply to her. Perhaps he rarely paid attention to his phone.
Since Damien didn’t bother to reply to her, Clarissa found the whole ordeal quite awkward.
Meanwhile, Damien took Neil’s hand and led his son through the campus grounds. He felt that it had been a very long time since he was exposed to such a relaxing atmosphere.
The last time he did so, it was with a certain someone in this particular university.
“Daddy, you mentioned that the pretty lady is your wife. Does that mean you‘ve developed feelings for her?” Neil asked.
“Yes.”
“I knew it, Daddy! You‘re always silent and brooding on the outside, but the feelings are clear to you! If you have feelings for her, you must hang on to them! Also, you have to let that nice guy know about your feelings for her!” Neil could barely contain his excitement. “If not, I‘ll be scared for the nice guy since he‘s so pure and innocent.” “Why would you be afraid for him?” Damien asked. “I‘m scared he might get hurt.” “Aren‘t you worried about me?” “But Daddy, you‘re capable of doing anything,” Neil replied proudly. Damien couldn‘t help but chuckle.
Both of them shuffled slowly down the path as they prepared to make their way home.
Soon, Neil let out a yawn. “Are you sleepy already?” Damien asked.
“Mhm.”
CLL
Damien bent down and scooped his son into his arms. Neil curled up happily in his father’s arms and dozed off soon enough.
The lights illuminating the path from the staff dorms must be quite dim, because neither father nor son noticed a woman standing near them.
No matter how big the waves rose and how strong they crashed down onto the shores of her heart on the inside, Chanel could only look calm on the outside.
The next day, Clarissa was eating in the staff cafeteria when she bumped into Chanel by‘ coincidence.”
“Hey, Chanel,” she greeted her enthusiastically.
“Did Damien come here last night, Clarissa?” Chanel always seemed calm whenever she mentioned Damien’s name. It was as if he was just an old classmate to her.
As expected, Clarissa’s hand trembled slightly at the mention of his name. “Uh, I think so. He came to watch the basketball game.” “Oh, but I saw him going to Indigo Hall last night.” Clarissa couldn‘t help but frown. “What‘s he doing there? I don‘t know anything. We‘re already divorced, after all. I don‘t know what‘s going on with his life.” “Why don‘t you host a dinner for us? We‘re old classmates, after all,” Chanel suggested lightly Chanel was the only one who knew just how much Clarissa loved and adored Damien despite the latter’s façade of nonchalance.
“Sure, no problem. I’ll ask him another time.” Clarissa then thought to herself, ‘Well, they were classmates in the past. Besides, Chanel already has a husband.”
After that, Clarissa’s thoughts wandered to the matter of Damien paying Indigo Hall a visit.‘ Grandpa used to teach at the University of Florin, so he might have a few close friends here. Maybe the reason why Damien went to Indigo Hall was to catch up with these friends.
