Love In Twilight By Tiny Mountains Chapter 221

Chapter 221 Leaving

Lily and Landon went to see Clarissa off when it was time for her to leave the country,

She hadn’t seen Damien since the day she took the morning after pill.

She didn’t miss him, either.

Clarissa buried Theresa in the deepest part of her heart and put a smile on to show the outside world.

She had never left the country before. This was her first time,

Damien had already found her a university, but she wasn’t going to go there. She had secretly applied

to another university’s finance faculty. If she wanted to get her master’s, she had to attend a one-year

preparatory course beforehand. She would take three or four years to complete her master’s.

By then, she would be twenty-eight years old.

Rich men like Damien liked to go for pretty, young things.

She would give him enough time and space to find someone new.

At that time, he would be looking forward to kicking her to the curb. “Clarissa, don’t forget to keep in

touch with us,” Lily said worriedly. “Alright, alright. Don’t worry,” Clarissa said. Landon remained rooted

to the spot long after Clarissa had gone past customs. “She’s gone. What are you looking at?” Lily said

to him. “Huh? Oh.” He came back to his senses.

Damien’s car was parked a distance away from the airport. He watched Clarissa walk into the airport

without even looking back.

She looked very happy.

On the plane, Clarissa couldn’t help thinking about everything that had happened over the past year. If

not for the strange circumstances leading to them getting married, she would perhaps still be struggling

to make ends meet, but at least Theresa would be alive. Nobody could predict the future, though. How

could she have known that her mother would die such an untimely death?

When Clarissa got to Emmeria, she immediately got busy applying for her course and finding herself a

place to stay.

She figured she would probably be able to forget her sorrows once she was busy.

She switched to an Emmerian phone number and stopped checking her Meranian number.

This lasted until more than a month later when she received a WhatsApp message from Joseph.

(Clarissa, where in Emmeria are you?)

Clarissa had found herself a studio apartment nearby her university. She was busy learning Emmerian

and revising for financial and cost management. She had decided to go back to Merania for her exam

in October.

‘Is Joseph in Emmeria already?’ She sent Joseph her location.

Joseph: (I’ll visit you tomorrow.)

Being in an unfamiliar country felt different from being back home.

Clarissa was delighted to have someone familiar come to see her in a place where she didn’t know

anyone. She didn’t have so many things to consider, and she barely contacted Damien.

(Okay.)

The next day, Joseph came to see her. He was wearing a T-shirt, and looked very much like a

university student.

“You’re here? Let me treat you to a meal. The food here is no match for back home, though,” Clarissa

said.

Joseph smiled. “Is that so? Come with me.”

She followed him.

As it turned out, he had his own car.

Joseph brought her to an unremarkable restaurant. After sitting down, they didn’t need to order. Shortly

after, a waiter brought them a few tasty-looking dishes.

“Try some,” he said.

Clarissa took a bite. The food was as delicious as it looked. She smiled and asked, “Why did you leave

the country so soon?”

“I was done handing everything over to Rebecca and didn’t have anything else to do, so I came over

earlier. I was thinking of studying here for a year, and then opening my own firm. What do you think?

Should we be partners?” Joseph offered.

She gave it some thought. “I need to get my master’s first, though. I’m still struggling with the NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

language.” “It’s no problem. You can study and work at the firm at the same time.” He continued, “Are

you two… divorced?”

Clarissa shook her head. “Not yet. He helped me apply to Rale University, but I didn’t want to go there.

I came to Kortel University on my own, and we’re not in contact, so it’s only a matter of time before we

get divorced. Rich people have never been short of women, anyway.” “I asked my dad about Emily’s

background. She really is Madam Zell’s daughter, but he sent her away after what happened back

then. Patrick might have seen her before, but Damien definitely doesn’t know her. I’m so sorry about

your mother’s death, Clarissa. My dad is partly responsible for this. Your brother and Emily are staying

in your mother’s apartment now, and he’s really depressed. Emily had a miscarriage,” Joseph said.

This really was a year filled with misfortune. Not just her, but also for Luke. “I don’t know. Luke said she

was the one who told him about it, but nobody knows how exactly it happened.” Clarissa lowered her

head and slowly ate her food.

‘Did Damien get someone to do it?’

It wasn’t as if that awful man wouldn’t do something like this.

“Let’s not talk about this. When are you going to open your firm? I’ll provide the funding,” Clarissa said.

“This year, maybe. We don’t need that much funding, so all you need to do is provide your services.”

She nodded. “Which university are you attending?” “Kortel University.”

“Huh?” Clarissa was taken aback.

He was studying at the same university as her?
