Love in Twilight

Chapter 287

Chapter 287 Don‘t You Know She‘s Already Six Months Pregnant? At Lucas‘s office.

Ray and Lucas soon fell into a huge argument.

Ray‘s voice was raised, and he was speaking so quickly that it was as if he didn‘t want Lucas to

understand him. Lucas was also jabbering in rapid German, but he couldn‘t really understand what Ray

was saying. He was just furious over how arrogant Ray was being

For a moment, Lucas‘s office was filled with their voices.

As the boss, Damien wasn‘t actually doing anything. He merely stood there and watched them in

silence.

Meanwhile, Clarissa was done with her yoga practice and was changing her clothes.

When she heard the ruckus coming from Lucas‘s office, she went over to see what was

going on.

The door wasn‘t shut. As she buttoned her shirt, she glanced inside and saw Damien smoking while

looking at her.

His gaze was teasing, and it was also filled with intrigue and interest in her.

The atmosphere crackled with electricity when their eyes met.

This almost changed Clarissa‘s mind about studying abroad.

Suddenly, the door to Lucas‘s office slammed shut with a loud bang. Ray stormed out.

“Psycho!” he shouted angrily.

This didn‘t seem like the way a person with a doctorate would act.

Damien, however, was talking to Lucas.

Ray walked past Clarissa silently, but then he abruptly turned back to her.

“Clarissa, can you help the audit department out for a while and do an audit on the finance

department? You used to work in both these departments, and you‘re the best person for the job. I‘ve

seen your new accounting method, and I think it‘s a good idea,” he suggested.

“Me?” She pointed at herself, surprised.

“Yes, you.”

“I don‘t think I can handle it. It‘s almost my due date, and I‘m going abroad next January to do my

master‘s.” Indeed, Clarissa couldn‘t help with this.

Damien walked out of Lucas‘s office.

“What‘s going on?” He looked at them.

“I want Clarissa to help me with the audit for the finance department, but she‘s already turned me

down.” Ray‘s anger had already subsided.

He wasn‘t angry at Clarissa, to begin with. Moreover, she was pregnant and had Damien backing her

up. Of course, he had to be gentle with her.

Damien gave Clarissa a once–over and said to Ray, “Think of something else.” “How am I going to

make someone appear out of thin air?” Ray spread his hands.“ Why‘d you bring in so many projects?”

“That‘s enough. Focus on fixing the problem, not pushing the blame.” Damien walked ahead of them.

“I know you just don‘t want Clarissa to be too tired,” Ray said.

“Don‘t you know that she‘s already six months pregnant?” Damien asked in return, sounding angry.

Clarissa‘s heart warmed again at his sincere words.

He was pulling her back with every second they spent together.

Back from the brink of hating him.

After all, her heart wasn‘t made of stone.

“If you‘re tired, you can go back to my office,” Damien turned back around and said to Clarissa.

“Okay.”

Ten minutes later, she sat down on the sofa in his office.

“The babies are yours.” These words were stuck in Clarissa‘s throat, but she just couldn‘t bring herself

to spit them out.

“Do you have something to say?” Damien sat down in his chair. He noticed that something seemed to

be bothering her.

“Oh, it‘s nothing.” She forced the words back down. “It‘s time to get off work. Let‘s go home,” Damien

said not too long after that. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Okay.”

In the car, Clarissa noticed that the sky was very gloomy. It looked like it was going to rain

Luckily, they were already on the way home. “Did Director Conrad and Lucas get into a light today?”

she asked. “Yeah. The audit department‘s very busy this year, and they don‘t have time to audit

the finance department. Ray isn‘t having it.” She nodded thoughtfully. “Is the audit department really

that busy?” “Yes. They‘re getting busier, and it‘s not easy to recruit people for them.”

“You...” After some thought, Clarissa said, “You‘re not putting on a show for me, are

you?”

“A show?” At first, Damien didn‘t understand what she was talking about. After a short while, he

seemed to sneer. “Clarissa, are you that important?”

“I…” She flushed with embarrassment.

She thought Damien had been putting on a show to tell her that New East Corporation was so busy

that two of its core departments were getting into a fight. He probably also wanted to tell her that they

were extremely shorthanded and that she should stay at New East Corporation instead of going

abroad.

“Don‘t you think that‘s such a dumb idea?” Damien asked.

Clarissa regretted bringing the topic up. Even if he wanted to keep her here, he had a thousand other

ways to do so. There was no need for him to pit two of his most important departments against each

other.

It was true he had snatched so many projects from Joseph for her sake, but deliberately making Ray

and Lucas get into an argument wasn‘t Damien‘s style. If he really was behind this, wouldn‘t he be

playing with fire just to make her happy? How could someone as clever as Damien do something like

this?

Indeed, Clarissa had been overthinking.
