Chapter 144 I’m Your Boss and Your Husband

On Monday, Clarissa’s desk phone started ringing loudly in the audit department. It was a call from

Damien

“Drop by my office. Bring your identification card with you.”

Clarissa thought, ‘Why did he come looking for me on a Monday morning? Is he planning to divorce

me?’

Damien’s legal director was also in the office. He was busy filing the documents, which included

property ownership and countless other documents.

“Her name is already listed in the deed of the property in Etheria. List her name on the rest of the

documents,” Damien commanded the legal director.

“Yes, sir. The contract’s already done. All I need is Mrs. Lawrence’s signature. I’ll take her identification

card to handle the rest of the process,” the legal director replied.

Clarissa looked very confused. “What?”

“By the way, make sure to spread all of this to the rest of the company so that the rumors of Clarissa

marrying for the sake of a contract will be dispelled. Now go,” Damien added.

The legal director exited the office.

Soon, Clarissa was the only one there.

“All of my assets have been filed under your name,” Damien explained.

“Oh.” Clarissa’s reaction was very mild.

“What’s with this reaction? Do you know what it means now that you officially own everything! have?”

Damien’s gaze grew more intrusive and playful.

“It’s just so that you can dispel the rumors of the marriage contract’s existence,” Clarissa replied

casually

She only knew that reason. As for the other reason, she had completely missed out on it.

“Well, you’re not wrong for thinking that way.”

Damien got up from his chair and walked toward Clarissa.

True, he wanted to dispel the rumors of the marriage contract’s existence. That was one of the

reasons.

The second reason was that Clarissa’s father was his savior.

The third reason was that he wanted to give Grandpa Lawrence a good explanation on his future with

Clarissa.

With just one action, he was able to achieve three purposes at the same time.

Damien’s tall frame towered over Clarissa, forcing her to stay awake and vigilant.

She lifted her head to stare at him, soon noticing the hints of lust that sparkled in his eyes.

“Did you sleep well last night?” Damien asked.

“Yes, I did.” Clarissa did her best to look as energetic as she could.

The monthly salary given to her by the audit department was twenty-five thousand dollars, after all! She

would be earning at least 700 to 800 dollars per day! She couldn’t possibly come here just to sleep!

Last night, Clarissa was unable to stay awake throughout their lovemaking session. She could barely

muster out an audible ‘I’m tired’ before she turned her back on Damien and fell asleep. Her confused

and lazy appearance made her look somewhat sexy, which turned him on even more.

Damien did his best to brainwash himself to not think about Clarissa’s father being his savior. But

whenever he was with her, he couldn’t help but be overwhelmed by various feelings such as love,

hatred, gratitude, and reluctance.

It was precisely due to the conflicting feelings that he loved and hated Clarissa every night. He

preferred to keep things simple in their relationship, as long as it wasn’t tainted with gratitude.

That emotion made it difficult for Damien to sever this relationship with Clarissa. Instead, it made

everything even more complex.

Damien pinched Clarissa’s chin. “Are you secretly a materialistic woman, or are you just pretending to

be noble? How are you unmoved by the prospect of owning this much wealth?”

“I’m not stupid. How can I not love money? Is there anything else?” Clarissa asked with her head lifted.

“The audit department is super busy, you know!”

“I want you right now…” Damien leaned forward and whispered into her ear.

Clarissa noticed the flames of lust as well as the need to dominate her body. Frightened by his sudden

yearning for her, she said, “Don’t joke around with me, Mr. Lawrence. Today’s Monday!”

“I’m not just your boss. I’m your husband as well.”

“Yes, but work is more important. I have to go now.”

When she was in the elevator, Clarissa wondered, ‘Is Damien a dog in heat? Why does he want to do

that sort of thing in the morning? Is it because he didn’t have his fill last night?’

Clarissa became an insomniac thanks to his torture. As a result, there were dark rings hanging under

her eyes.

When it was lunchtime, Clarissa heard people from other departments gossiping among themselves.

“Did you know that Mr. Lawrence has entrusted half of his assets to Clarissa? Now, she’s the richest

woman in Genovia!”

“Does the marriage contract even exist?”

“Nah, I doubt that. Didn’t you notice how dark the rings under her eyes are?”

“Huh? What does that have to do with what we’re talking about?”

Clarissa also wanted to know what having dark rings meant.

“Those with dark rings under their eyes are too indulgent in sex, of course! They probably made love

every day and night without a single care in the world! How else would she have obtained those

assets?”novelbin

Clarissa was speechless after hearing that.

Everyone seemed to be pretty invested in gossiping behind Damien’s back.

Later, Clarissa had lunch with Lily.

“Yo, Boss Lady! I heard you’ve obtained half of Mr. Lawrence’s assets! Don’t forget me, okay? I’ll be

counting on you to promote me to become the latest PR director!” Lily requested.

“In your dreams! I have no say in company affairs. He’s the one in charge.” Clarissa was instantly

reminded by the time when she accidentally said too much and led to Rebecca’s resume being torn

into shreds.

“Well, I’m counting on you anyway!”

“By the way, are the rings under my eyes really that dark?” Clarissa lifted her head and pointed at her

eyes.

ok fine. What’s wrong? Is it true that you overindulged in sex like the rumors claimed?” Lily asked

casually

“That’s nonsense!” However, Clarissa was still embarrassed after hearing Lily’s words.

Sleazy-looking middle-aged men were the ones who were overindulgent in nocturnal activities. Clarissa

was still a young woman, yet she was thrown into the same category as those men. To her, that was far

too embarrassing.

“Let’s go shopping for makeup that can help conceal my dark rings this afternoon,” Clarissa said.

“Shouldn’t you ask Damien to go with you instead? Whoever’s responsible for those dark rings should

be the ones paying for the makeup. Your rings are already this dark, but he’s still acting like he has

nothing to do with it. What if your situation worsens in the future, huh?” Lily retorted. Clarissa found

Lily’s answer to be prim and proper, but at the same time, it sounded quite lewd.
