CHAPTER 338
Chapter 338 Where Are You Right Now? Damien rushed to the door like a madman.
Monica crawled her way up to the door and barred him from leaving. She wrapped her arms around his
legs in a desperate attempt to drag him back to the office. “Let go of me now!” Damien shouted again.
“Damien, you promised me to take care of Madelynn! Why are you going back against your words?
Don’t you know that Clarissa is just fooling around with you?” Monica screamed at the top of her lungs.
“Scram!” Damien had the urge to kick her away with full force, with the full understanding that Monica
would withstand grave injuries if he were to do that. “You can’t treat Madelynn like this, Damien! You
two used to be a loving couple in the past!” Monica cried out loud, tears streaming down her face. Her
voice was so loud, almost everyone in the building could hear it.
Damien hurriedly reached for his phone to call Clarissa,
Right at this moment, a foreign number called Damien’s number as his phone rang continuously.
Damien picked it up as fast as he could.
“President Lawrence, I’m James Royle from Arisona Construction. Just now, Mr. Lark wanted your staff
to manage some accounting issues at our side, but we’ve forgotten that we’ve already submitted the
report to your audit department. Miss Johnson has always been the person in charge of managing our
accounts, but we didn’t know she’s not working at First anymore. 1 deeply apologize for our mistake,” Content provided by .
James said with an apologetic tone.
“Noted.” Damien hung up quickly and called Clarissa’s number again.
However, her line was busy at the moment.
At the same time, Clarissa was calling Leah to pick her up from the company and get her home. In the
first place, Clarissa felt she shouldn’t have made a trip to the company.
“Leah, where are you? Can you send me home right now?” Clarissa stood at the entrance of New East
during the call.
“You mean now? I’ve just returned home. I thought you were going back home with President
Lawrence today, so I went back home to pick up my songbook. Give me a minute. I’ll head downstairs
now,” Leah said.
“No, it’s fine,” Clarissa said.
“Are you sure? Please go back with President Lawrence, okay? Don’t go back by yourself. If anything
happens to you, President Lawrence will blame me for it,” Leah said anxiously.
“Don’t worry, I won’t.” Then, Clarissa hung up. Damien called Leah, and Leah told him what Clarissa
had said to her just now.
Finally, Damien managed to break free from Monica’s grasp and rushed outside. The moment he got
into his car, he sent a Whatsapp message to Clarissa. Damien: (Don’t listen to her! She’s lying to you!
Where are you? Please answer my call!) Right now, Clarissa wanted to find a place to rest for a while.
So, she hailed a taxi and arrived at Genovia Park, a place with good scenery to calm down her nerves.
She wanted to rest at the park for a while before heading home.
Deeply irked by Monica’s words, she gasped for air on the bench in the park, hoping that the fresh air
could alleviate her stomach pain and tense nerves.
She thought that fresh air was all that she needed to calm down. Is her pain persisted, she would go to
the hospital and see Bethany immediately. At this moment, Clarissa’s phone rang and Cindy’s name
appeared on her screen. ‘She must be calling to talk about Connie again,’ she thought. “Hello, Aunt
Cindy,” Clarissa picked up the phone “Clarissa, have you talked to President Lawrence about
Madelynn?” Cindy sounded anxious.
“I still haven’t had the chance to see him yet. I’m at the park right now.”
“Clarissa, I’m really sorry for what Connie did to you in the past. But right now, I really need your help.
Connie has a bandage around one of her eyes! It breaks my heart to see her like this,” Cindy sobbed.
Hearing her aunt’s cracking voice, Clarissa’s heart went out to her
“I’m at Genovia Park right now. I’ll talk to him at night when I go back home,” she said.
Clarissa felt that she should help Connie, out of pity for her uncle. All these years, Uncle Peter had
been living under the same roof with her wicked wife, who was constantly ordering him around. Life
must’ve been hard for him.
“Don’t forget to talk to President Lawrence, okay?”
Clarissa agreed and hung up Looking at the serene lake, Clarissa couldn’t help but reminisce about the
day she was rowing the boat with Damien.
It had been a warm and sunny day, with only the two of them on the surface of the lake. She placed her
phone on the bench while enjoying the scenery, In the distance, a woman with a bandaged eye
appeared from nowhere. Clarissa was startled. ‘Is that Connie? Why is she here?”
Had Connie heard Clarissa’s conversation with Cindy just now? Or did Cindy tell Connie that she was
at Genovia Park?
Clarissa knew she wouldn’t be able to protect herself if Connie attacked her.
So, she sent a message to Leah immediately.
Clarissa: (Leah, come to Genovia Park to pick me up right now.)
Then, she forwarded her current location to Leah.
Meanwhile, Connie approached Clarissa with a furious look. She removed the ring on one of her
fingers and threw it angrily at Clarissa. “Here! I’m giving it back to you!”
Clarissa examined the ring, and quickly realized that it was her grandmother’s! She thought she would
never find it ever again after her grandmother’s passing
