Love In Twilight By Tiny Mountains Chapter 353

Chapter 353 Are You a Good Girl? Penelope was an intelligent socialite. Not only did she have the

brains, but her endurance was also pretty high. She was clear on what she wanted from the start.

Hence, she also knew very well that there were certain paths that she must take in order to achieve her

goals.

Penelope knew very well the reason Clarissa wanted her to join Joseph’s firm; Clarissa was already

pregnant, so she knew she would never be with Joseph. At the same time, she was afraid that Damien

might suspect her being involved with Joseph, so she introduced Penelope to Great West. Clarissa

also thought that Joseph and Penelope would fall in love with each other over time, thus resolving her

problem. Meanwhile, Penelope joining Joseph’s firm also fit Damien’s agenda. Thus, he would no

longer snatch her deals from her in the future

That was the reason Penelope dragged Joseph to visit Clarissa

In a way, she was proclaiming her stance to Damien

On the other hand, Joseph was here because he was infuriated. Since Clarissa was adamant on

introducing a new woman into his life, he accepted that woman as his girlfriend, so now he was here to

show that off. He wanted to see what else Clarissa would do once she saw them together

“How are things in Great West?” Clarissa asked both Penelope and Joseph.

“Everything’s fine. Great West is the best accounting firm, after all. Now that Joseph and I are partners,

things will continue to be better from here on out,” Penelope replied, shooting Joseph a look

Those two looked like they were putting on an act in front of everyone

“Oh. That’s nice,” Clarissa replied.

“Anyway, thank you so much, Clarissa! I specifically bought this pearl necklace for you. I’m so sorry for

what I’ve done to you in the past. Now that you gave birth to your baby, you look prettier and more

charining.” Once she was done speaking, Penelope took out a beautiful and delicate pearl necklace

before putting it around Clarissa’s neck

Truthfully speaking, Clarissa’s visage brightened up the moment the pearl necklace was slung around

her neck. She was already fair in the first place, so she started radiating beautifully the moment the

pearl necklace was added to her appearance.

“You look gorgeous in it, Clarissa! Don’t ever take it off,” Penelope praised

“Sure,” Clarissa replied. She didn’t make any move to take the necklace ofl.

“Then, I’ll be leaving first,” Penelope said to Damien

“Alright.”

After Penelope and Joseph left, Clarissa took off the necklace immediately. It was always a good habit

to be on guard against the others. What if an incident similar to the combustion of the white phosphorus

were to happen again? What would she do by then? Penelope was a smart and cunning woman, so it

was best to be wary of her.

“Why did you take it off? You look great in it, don’t you?” Dainien turned his gaze on Clarissa.

“I’m worried she might have done something to the necklace. I can’t open up to her no matter what.”

Clarissa put the necklace in the jewelry box it came with. “Oh? I see you’ve learnt your lesson,” Damien

commented knowingly.

Naturally, Clarissa knew right away what he was talking about. “Of course. I’m a good girl now.”

“Let me test that out for you.” While he spoke, Damien stood up from the couch and moved to sit next

to Clarissa.

Clarissa was already seated on the armchair to begin with. The moment Damien sat down next to her,

the armchair was unable to fit both of them, so Clarissa ended up scooting toward the side. Half of her

body ended up leaning toward Damien’s Damien’s hand reached out to stroke Clarissa’s hair. Another

hand slipped under her blouse and started groping her

“You aren’t flat either,” he said teasingly, gazing into her eyes.

Clarissa grumbled, “Get lost.”

“What are you going to do with this necklace?” Damien asked with a smile

“It’s a secret. I won’t feel safe if it remains at home,” Clarissa answered.

An idea had already popped into her head. She planned to deliver this necklace to Connie.

On the previous New Year, Clarissa received a teddy bear together with a bouquet of red roses. She

had a feeling that Connie was the sender Connie probably intended to start a conflict between Clarissa

and Damien back then. After that, Connie kidnapped Clarissa in order to force her to sign the divorcenovelbin

agreement papers. There was more. Not only did Connie refuse to save their grandinother, but she

also single-handedly caused Clarissa to go into premature labor, which led to Ash’s death in her womb.

In other words, if it wasn’t for the premature labor, Ash would still be alive.

These were the major crimes Connie had carried out. Clarissa was certain Connie had more minor

crimes under her belt

Clarissa had yet to tell Damien about Connie being the culprit behind Ash’s death. At first, her physical

condition prevented her from saying anything After she made a full recovery, she thought long and hard

about it. If she told Damien the truth, there was a chance that he would deal with Connie the same way

he had dealt with Nicole

Clarissa didn’t want Connie to face the same fate. First of all, Connie was still her relative Not to

mention, they shared a good relationship in the past. Based on that fact alone, Clarissa didn’t want to

humiliate Connie. Secondly, Clarissa wanted to personally deal with Connie
