Chapter 334 Do You Miss Me Already? Content provided by .

The reason Arisona Construction appointed Clarissa was because they knew that she was the one in

charge of managing their accounts.

However, she had only done that in First, not for New East. If Clarissa sourced out her work in First,

that would be a breach of confidentiality and work ethics. It would land her in deep. trouble if Arisona

Construction were to use that fact against her in the future.

Thinking back, James and Mr. Lark were more than willing to present their accounts to New East back

then. Since they were obviously trying hard to get on New East’s good side, why would they pull funny

tricks on her?

Confused, Clarissa made a phone call to Damien instantly.

“Hello, President Lawrence,” she said.

“We’ve only been separated for a few minutes. Do you miss me already?” he said.

“That’s not it. Has Arisona Construction always been eager to form a partnership with New East?” she

asked.

Last year when Clarissa paid a visit to Arisona Construction, she still remembered clearly how James

was always trying to get on her good side in order to please Damien into giving them more projects.

Until now, Arisona Construction had only taken on subcontracted projects, but never long-term projects.

They had been asking New East to give them more opportunities, but to no avail.

“Yes, but I rejected their proposal because they didn’t have enough funds.”

“Alright, thank you for letting me know.” After that, Clarissa hung up.

After confirming her speculations, Clarissa knew exactly why Arisona Construction was luring. her into

their trap. They wanted to use her blunder into exchanging a partnership with New East. Their

intentions were quite obvious.

“Janet, please tell them that their accounts from last year are not under New East’s

possession. If they want me to do the job for them, ask them to provide us with their report. from last

year. It’s true I managed their accounts, but I did it for First, not for New East. If I were to present the

accounts for them, I would be breaching First’s confidentiality of company information,” Clarissa

explained.

“See, I knew that something was wrong! I’ll give Mr. Lark a call about it.” After that, Janet made a

phone call to Mr. Lark and made it a point that Clarissa wouldn’t source out her work from First no

matter what.

Mr. Lark sounded apologetic. “Oh, I’m really sorry. I’ve completely forgotten that Clarissa is working for

New East now.”

Mr. Lark told James what happened, but he was berated for trying to pull tricks on Clarissa. How dare

you pull these dirty tricks on New East! Let’s pray Damien Lawrence didn’t see through your intentions.

If he did, don’t ever dream about having any potential partnerships with New East anymore! As

punishment for your stupidity, you won’t be getting your salary for next month!”

Mr. Lark resisted the urge to retort and swallowed his pride. Right now, he only hoped Clarissa

wouldn’t tell Damien about what he had done.

“I’ll call President Lawrence later and apologize to him. Don’t you dare involve yourself in this

anymore!” James yelled at the top of his lungs.

Mr. Lark had no choice but to remain silent.

At New East, Clarissa sighed in relief.

The only reason Janet asked Clarissa to the company was to talk to her about Arisona Construction.

Aside from that, she didn’t assign another job to Clarissa.

Since Clarissa was heavily pregnant, nobody dared to ask her to do anything.

She thought about following Damien home in the evening. So, she sat on the sofa and browsed

through her phone to pass

time.

After Janet made another phone call, she asked, “Clarissa, when are you leaving this evening?”

“I don’t know. What’s the matter?”

“I’m wondering if you can drop me off at a location later. I want to pay a visit to the drama. cast of The

Palace. It’s on the way back to your house. I didn’t drive here today. I came here by taxi,” Janet said.

“Sure, let’s go. I don’t have anything to do anyway,” Clarissa said. She thought to herself, ‘I’ll just go

home in Leah’s car. I guess I won’t be going back with Damien today.’

Right at this moment, Damien sent her a message.

Damien: [Come down now.]

“Janet, he wants me to see him right now. I’ll come back later, okay?” Clarissa said honestly.

“Who are you talking about?”

“Damien.”

Janet smiled. “Every time you talk about President Lawrence, you always address him as ‘he’.

Sometimes, I’m just confused about who you’re referring to. You don’t have to be shy about it, you

know?”

Clarissa nodded and smiled awkwardly in response.
