Love in Twilight novel (Clarissa and Damien) novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173 She Vaguely Felt That Something Was Wrong

Three hundred thousand dollars? Theresa was stumped.

She‘d been in a coma for six years, and she didn‘t have any money on her.

She didn‘t want to make things hard for Clarissa as well. She knew how tough life would be for Clarissa as a normal girl marrying into a rich family. If Clarissa were to ask them for money, she would be under their control.

“Mom, it‘s fine. I‘ll go settle it.” Clarissa patted Theresa on the shoulder and pulled out Financial and Cost Management.

She carried it with her everywhere she went, and the check that Damien had given her was still stuffed between its pages.

“I have five hundred thousand dollars here. He gave it to me, so don‘t worry. Grandma will be fine. I need to get this check accepted first.” She showed Theresa the check.

“He” was referring to Damien, of course.

Theresa felt like something was wrong, but she couldn‘t pinpoint it. After paying the deposit, the doctors started operating.

Operations to remove tumors always took a long time.

They waited outside.

“As expected of a rich man‘s wife. You forked out three hundred thousand dollars so casually,” Connie mocked.

Clarissa ignored Connie and continued to rest her eyes while leaning against the wall.

This made Connie even angrier.

Theresa was a little confused. ‘Did Clarissa tell Damien that she was coming to the hospital? Why hasn‘t Damien even called if he knows that she‘s here?‘

“Huh? Clarissa, what are you doing here?” Joseph and a group of people were passing by.

When Connie saw Joseph, she smiled widely. ‘The main characters of this love triangle are here, except for Damien. I bet he‘ll teach her a lesson if he found out about this!

Clarissa looked up and saw Joseph.

“You‘re here for...” she said in surprise.

“Oh, I took on a job from Thompson Hospital last year to audit them, and I came to collect some files today. What are you doing in the hospital?” Joseph asked.

Clarissa knew that as long as she was with Joseph, Connie would definitely blow things out of proportion.

She pulled Joseph aside and told him everything.

When Joseph saw that there were only four women seated here, he knew Clarissa probably wouldn‘t be able to hold the fort down.

“My work here isn‘t done yet, so I won‘t be going back to Genovia. Tumor operations take a long time, maybe around twenty hours. I‘ll book you a room. You and your mother can get some rest there. Also, do you have enough money?” Joseph cared about Clarissa a lot, and it showed on his face.
