Love In Twilight By Tiny Mountains Chapter 371

Chapter 371 The Generosity of a Highly Educated Scholar No wonder this woman seemed so familiar!

Clarissa had seen a photo of her when she and Damien went to the University of Florin once. But it had

been dark at that time, and the photo was small in size, which was why Clarissa hadn’t recognized this

woman at first sight.

It was Chanel Kirk.

“I’m Clarissa Johnson.” Clarissa shook Chanel’s hand.

She didn’t know whether Chanel knew who she was. At the class reunion, Damien’s classmates had all

found out about her name and appearance. There was bound to be someone who would’ve told

Chanel about Clarissa.

Clarissa couldn’t help feeling a little diffident now that she was standing before Chanel, not knowing

how much Chanel knew about her.

Chanel had once pursued Damien, while she was Damien’s ex-wife. It was a little odd for the two of

them to be together. Clarissa felt a mixture of sympathy and envy, while also feeling the need to

compare herself with Chanel

Chanel had pulled Clarissa out of her study mode and back to reality

“You lost your purse?” Clarissa asked

“Yeah.” Chanel continued to search for her purse. “There isn’t inuch money in it, but it has a photo of

someone very important to me. He’s the man I love the most.”

Clarissa wondered if Chanel was referring to Damien.

After all, Chanel had pursued Damien from their high school days all the way to their doctorate Wasn’t

he the man she loved the most?

In the end, Chanel didn’t manage to find her purse.

“I can’t find it.” She looked very disappointed. She checked her watch and saw that it was past eleven.

“It isn’t easy to run into a Meranian here, so why don’t we have lunch together?”

“Sure.” Clarissa felt that Chanel had to know who she was. Why else would Chanel invite a complete

stranger to lunch?

They went for lasagna, and their topic slowly went from their studies to their lives.novelbin

Clarissa couldn’t help feeling that Chanel was trying to edge the conversation toward the reunion

“I have to be honest with you, Clarissa. I knew who you were before, but I didn’t expect to run into you

here. I’m actually pretty happy to have the chance to get to know you. You’re Damien’s ex wife, aren’t

you? After the reunion, someone sent me a photo of you. That’s why I recognized you.” Chanel

continued, “I was afraid of you bearing a grudge, so I just want to explain that I didn’t skip the reunion

because Damien had gotten married. It’s nothing like what my classmates said, so please don’t get me

wrong.” “Why didn’t you go, then?” Clarisss asked. It was as she had expected. After talking about

other things, Chanel finally brought the reunion up. Chanel’s hand stilled. “Don’t ask. Let’s not talk

about that and just continue eating. I wasn’t in

a good mood back in Merania, so I applied to become a visiting scholar. I didn’t expect to run into you

here.” Clarissa hated it when people left her hanging. She couldn’t help feeling curious. Chanel was the

one who’d brought this matter up, but she hadn’t given Clarissa anything concrete Moreover, Chanel

seemed to be deliberately leading Clarissa on. It was as if she was telling Clarissa, “I didn’t go to the

reunion because of Damien. It’s definitely because of Damien!”

After that ambiguous sentence, Chanel went silent and dug into her food, as if she wanted to gobble up

the sadness in her past.

Clarissa was sure that Chanel was trying to make her feel awkward and guilty. Chanel had gone on to

do her doctorate to follow in Damien’s footsteps, but she had failed to win his favor. Yet, Clarissa had

managed to get together with him once he started working

It was as if Chanel was a top student who had woken up early every day to study, while Clarissa was

nothing but a copycat who had copied her answers during a test and just so happened to

get better results than her!

Now, Chanel was exuding the generosity of a highly educated scholar who was letting Clarissa off the

hook. She wanted to make Clarissa feel guilty!

Clarissa didn’t have a good first impression of Chanel. In fact, she felt rather repulsed

After they were done eating, they went back to their respective homes.
