Chapter 190 Damien Would Hit Someone

When the boy walked out of New East Corporation, a car was waiting for him by the corner.

Madelynn had made sure to hail a taxi instead of taking her own car here.

She and Connie sat in the backseat together.

“How did it go?” Madelynn looked at the boy with a mixture of excitement and nervousness.

“I said the things you told me to,” he said.

“How did they react?” Connie was even more excited. She couldn‘t wait to find out how Damien would

react upon finding out that his wife was the daughter of a call girl.

“The lady kept crying, and the man was really mad,” the boy said.

Madelynn and Connie were elated.

“Are you going to pay me as you said?” he asked Madelynn.

She took 200 dollars out of her pocket and handed it to the boy with little hesitation.

“We have to strike while the iron‘s hot. Since they only got married for Grandpa Lawrence‘s sake, we

have to go tell him right now.” Madelynn checked the time.

She had already familiarized herself with Clarissa and Damien‘s schedule. She didn‘t know what they

were up to after work, but they would only leave the company an hour after getting off work. It was

currently 5:40 p.m., so they probably would only leave after some time.

Madelynn ordered the taxi driver to take them to Hill Villa.

Inside the house, Grandpa Lawrence was eating alone.

Connie didn‘t get out of the car, choosing to wait there instead. She was afraid that Clarissa would find

out she and Madelynn were in cahoots.

andpa, where‘s Damien and Clarissa?” Madelynn asked.

“Oh, Damien called me earlier and said he and Clarissa were eating out,” Grandpa Lawrence said

absent–mindedly. “You can have a seat and wait for them.”

Madelynn sat down on the sofa and started chatting with him.

“Grandpa, I went to New East Corporation earlier: Damien wasn‘t there, so I left. I heard the employees

gossiping about something...” She deliberately trailed off here, as if it was hard for her to utter the

remainder of her sentence.

“Huh? Why have you stopped? Tell me what you heard. I‘m not an outsider,” Grandpa Lawrence said

amicably.

When he was done eating, he joined Madelynn on the sofa.

At the same time, he sent Damien a WhatsApp message.

Grandpa: (When are you coming back? Madelynn‘s here.)

Damien: (Soon.)

Grandpa: [How much longer?)

Damien: (Twenty minutes.)

“I went to the company today and heard the receptionists talking about how Clarissa‘s not actually

related to her parents, and that they found her somewhere. You know about Damien‘s cornea

transplant, don‘t you? I thought my father was the donor, but I only found out later that he wasn‘t.

Clarissa‘s father was the actual donor. Damien probably married Clarissa out of gratitude, but now,

there‘s not even a need to be grateful for her. I also heard that Clarissa‘s biological mother was a call

girl. Grandpa, you come from an esteemed family. I don‘t want you to be disgraced by something like

this.”

Madelynn scrutinized Grandpa Lawrence‘s expression after she finished speaking.

“Damien had a cornea transplant?” He was shocked. “When was this?”

This surprised Madelynn. “You didn‘t know, Grandpa?”

“No, I didn‘t.”

Madelynn started to feel a little uneasy. Was she overloading Grandpa Lawrence with this information?

He didn‘t even know that Damien had lost his sight for a short period of time.

Grandpa Lawrence took a long time to calm himself down. Then, he said to Madelynn,“ What was that

thing about Clary?”

“I heard that her mother was a call girl. I’m afraid with her background, she‘ll be a disgrace to the

Lawrence family.”

The sound of a car being parked could be heard from outside.

wrandpa Lawrence‘s face suddenly turned deathly pale. “Mrs. Faber! Get my heart medication.”

He was constantly suffering from a heart condition.

Mrs. Faber obeyed and quickly gave him his medication.

This weighed on Madelynn‘s conscience. Why had Grandpa Lawrence‘s heart acted up at this Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

moment? Was he angry because of Clarissa‘s parentage, or because of Madelynn herself?

If it was because of her, how was Madelynn going to talk her way out of this?

She wanted to leave, but Damien and Clarissa had already entered the villa.

“Grandpa? What‘s wrong?” the two cried out at the same time.

Grandpa Lawrence was slumped sideways on the sofa as he pointed at Madelynn. “S She She told me

that Clary‘s biological mother was a call girl! I was so angry, ...”

“I...” Madelynn couldn‘t think of anything to defend herself.

She used to think that Grandpa Lawrence was an amicable old man. Why was he suddenly pointing

fingers at her?

“You!” Damien‘s frosty gaze landed on Madelynn instantly,

“I… I didn‘t!” Damien asked Clarissa to help Grandpa Lawrence up, and then told Mrs. Faber to call the

doctor.

After that, he approached Madelynn and gave her a tight slap.

The sound out loud and crispy clear.

Clarissa, who had been helping Grandpa Lawrence up, shuddered at the harshness of the

slap.

She never expected that Damien would actually lay his hands on someone. A woman, no less!
