Chapter 272 It Wasn‘t Her First Time Falling for Him “It‘s me,” Damien answered.
“Why are you still here? Didn‘t you return to the Hill Villa already?” Clarissa asked.
“The taps are busted. I don‘t know the maintenance office‘s number since I‘ve never lived in this place
before,” he replied.
Clarissa nodded after a split second. “Oh… Are you still leaving tonight?”
She spent a long time chatting with Lily earlier that day. After that, Leah had driven Lily back, so it was
already four in the afternoon.
“Do you want me to leave?” Damien asked.
“You have legs, don‘t you? It‘s none of my business if you leave or not. If you‘re not leaving, I‘ll have
Mrs. Faber prepare extra food for you. If you decide to leave...” Clarissa must have realized that she
had a gentle expression on her face because she decided to put on a poker face instead.
“What happens if I do leave?”
“Then there won‘t be a portion for you at dinner,” Clarissa replied. Belonging to .
“Well, I‘m not leaving,” Damien decided.
“I‘ll ask Mrs. Faber to prepare your portion, then.” After that, Clarissa was about to walk out of the room
in order to go to the kitchen.
However, Damien stuck out his arm and blocked her way.
Clarissa turned her head around to stare at him in surprise.
“I‘ve already told her.”
“Oh. Okay.” Clarissa moved back to sit on the bed.
Damien went to the bathroom outside the room and continued fixing the tap.
Clarissa‘s bedroom door wasn‘t closed.
Soon, she heard sounds of metallic clanging coming from the bathroom. Then, she heard Damien
turning on the tap and washing his hands.
All of a sudden, Clarissa felt that sounds like those added color into her life. She loved listening to
them.
“Aren‘t you going to eat?” Damien exited the bathroom and turned around to ask Clarissa, who was
spacing out in the bedroom.
He was still wearing a black shirt, which made him look stoic and handsome to the point that people
didn‘t dare to look him in the eye.

“I ate too much during lunch, so I‘m not hungry,” Clarissa replied.
“At least have a glass of milk. Come out.”
Since Clarissa had nothing to do in the bedroom, she decided to join Damien at the dining table.
“Go heat up a glass of milk for her. Prepare a salad while you‘re at it.” Damien issued an order to Mrs.
Faber.
“Alright.”
While Mrs. Faber prepared Clarissa‘s food in the kitchen, the latter just sat at the dining table with a
bored expression on her face.
“What did you eat for lunch? Why aren‘t you hungry?” Damien made small talk with Clarissa while
eating.
“Ah. Lily wanted me to treat her to lunch. We went to the same restaurant you brought me to the last
time.” Clarissa answered.
“What did you two talk about?”
“I forgot. We‘re old friends, so we just talked about anything we could think of. She‘ll start working the
day after tomorrow,” Clarissa replied.
Mrs. Faber served her a glass of warm milk at that moment.
“I‘m still preparing the salad. Please wait for a moment.” After that, Mrs. Faber returned to the kitchen.
Clarissa cupped the glass with both hands as she took a sip from it. Her lips were soon coated with a
ring of milk.
“Well...” She felt that the atmosphere had become awkward, so she wanted to find a new topic to talk
about. For example, she wanted to ask Damien if he would be resuming work soon.
“Your mouth.” Damien lifted his head to look at Clarissa.
“What?” Clarissa‘s thought process had been derailed by that sudden statement, making her unable to
snap out of her trance.
“Milk.”
“Huh?” Clarissa found it more difficult to understand Damien‘s answer.
The sight of that woman looking so confused made Damien wrap an arm around her shoulder. Then,
he pulled her in and kissed her.
Clarissa‘s mind went blank at first. After that, she finally realized that she had milk on her lips.
Mrs. Faber brought out a bowl of salad. She happened to witness the steamy moment

just as she was about to arrive at the dining table, so she quickly retreated into the kitchen.
She only returned to the dining table once the couple finally got separated from each other.
Clarissa‘s face was a brilliant shade of red. “Is there any milk left?”
“No.” Damien continued eating after that.
Clarissa picked up a fork and started eating her salad. “The grief from losing Mom is starting to fade,
while the warmth he emits is right in front of my eyes. If this goes on, I might not be able to stop myself
from surrendering myself to him again.‘ It wasn‘t her first time falling for him, after all.
After dinner, Damien sat on the couch while reading a book. Meanwhile, Clarissa returned to her room.
She happened to be leaning against the bedframe and watching drama, when she felt her calf
cramping up all of a sudden. According to Bethany, cramps were very common during pregnancy.
Clarissa was told to massage her calves whenever that happened.
However, the cramps were starting to intensify. Furthermore, Clarissa‘s stomach was too big for her to
massage her calf on her own.
“Mrs. Faber? Mrs. Faber...?” she called out.
She had never experienced cramps in the past. But during her pregnancy, the cramps kept coming like
a flood since last Monday.
