Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien)
Chapter 429

Chapter 429 You Can Only Fall In Love With My Father When Clarissa heard that Damien had something to say to her, she became so nervous to the point that she even bumped her head against the door when entering the room. She covered her forehead, and went into the study. Damien looked at Clarissa, and shifted his gaze to the door. "Why are you still so careless?" he asked. Clarissa was speechless. Damien cut straight to the chase. "Don't ever think about becoming Neil's mother. You're always going to be a stranger to Neil." When Clarissa heard that, she clenched her fists in anger. She knew Damien hated her, and she never expected him to forgive her.

"I know. This time, I'm just here because Neil needs me."

"You don't have to explain." Damien lit up a cigarette, and the smoke wafted in the air. Currently, Clarissa was thinking if she should leave or not. "Is there anything else?" Damien asked. "Can you stop smoking from now on?" Damien's hands trembled slightly and he sounded a lot gentler when he asked, "Why?" "Neil's still young. It's bad for his health," Clarissa said. Damien chuckled sarcastically. "I didn't expect you to actually care for your son." "..." Clarissa was lost for words. Damien's reaction was understandable. These three years, she had never once returned to visit Neil. Why was she acting like his mother now? Right at this moment, Neil exited from the washroom.

After Clarissa headed to the washroom to wash up, she went to Neil's room with him.

Ever since Neil's birth, this was the first time that Clarissa had the chance of sleeping together with her own son.

When Neil was still a baby, Clarissa was almost driven to madness by Vanessa and Patrick in the house. The two were also partly the reason she fled overseas.

At this moment, Clarissa was content to be able to spend time with Neil today. "Neil, who accompanies you to sleep every night?" Clarissa asked after she switched off the lights.

"Daddy, but he wants me to have my own room after a while."

"Are you attending kindergarten right now?" "No, I haven't. Daddy said I shouldn't worry, because he's already planned my life ahead."

"What about your mother? Has your father mentioned her?"

At the mention of his mother, Neil lowered his tone. "No, he never has." Those words stabbed right at Clarissa's heart. Her only ray of hope was diminished. Even though Neil was her child, she had no right in paving his future. She didn't even know what Damien's plans were when it came to raising Neil. At present, she was no better than an outsider who had no right to know anything related to Neil.

"Clarissa, Daddy likes you a lot. You know that, right?" Neil turned to look expectantly at her. "How do you know that?" "The way he looks at you is different from how he looks at everyone else." Clarissa smiled bitterly. 'He must hate me with passion. After all, I am his ex-wife!" "Clarissa... I need to pee." "Okay, I'll switch on the lights for you." The moment the lights were on, Clarissa saw a small-sized plushie on his bed. Clarissa's heart raced in excitement. 'I can't believe Neil has the same plushie as me! What a coincidence! She picked up the plushie, and noticed that it was also from the same manufacturer as hers. Clarissa was beyond ecstatic. "Who bought this plushie for you?" Clarissa asked. "My Daddy's friend." Neil rubbed his eyes sleepily. "He's very handsome, but you can only fall in love with my father." Clarissa smiled, amused. 'How cute! He's so sleepy, he's not making sense with his words anymore.' To that, Clarissa grinned at Neil. "Let's sleep." Clarissa patted him gently and lulled him to sleep. Though she didn't know who Damien's friend in Florin was, she was certain he would turn out to be someone with a powerful status in society with a lot of connections. Looking at the identical plushie, Clarissa didn't hate Caleb as much anymore.
