Love in Twilight

Chapter 452 The Heavens Had Pulled a Huge Prank on Him

The next day, Mrs. Faber took a bus to Florin. Her first stop was at Grandpa Lawrence’s house.

Neil was overjoyed to see her.

He even said to Damien, “Dad, are we going to stay in Florin from now on?”

“It depends.” Damien was lounging on the sofa.

He appraised Mrs. Faber. She was dressed up nicely, and her eyes crinkled as she smiled brightly.

“Mr. Lawrence, do you think Caleb asked me to come so he could introduce his girlfriend to me? I

wonder why he’s so proactive now.” Mrs. Faber was so excited that she was trembling.

“Are you supposed to meet them for dinner? It’s getting late. You should hurry.” Damien glanced at his

watch.

He had long since known that this day would be here, and that Caleb and Clarissa’s relationship would

come to naught. That was why he managed to suppress his anger all this time.

“Yes, yes.” Mrs. Faber calmed herself down and left.

Caleb chose a place nearby the university.

He was a student, and the cost of eating here was closest to what he could afford.

“Clarissa, my mother used to be an editor at a newspaper. After she retired early, she started working

for Mr. Lawrence. You see, Mr. Lawrence is Damien Lawrence. You’ve met him before.”

Clarissa nodded as she sipped at her tea. She couldn’t help feeling a little nervous at the prospect of

seeing someone from her past.

Mrs. Faber walked into the restaurant. When she saw Clarissa, she didn’t dare to say anything. She

merely stood there, trying to figure out what was going on.

Her heart sank at the goofy smile on Caleb’s face.

“Long time no see, Mrs. Faber.” Clarissa stood up.

Ever since she and Damien had gotten divorced, Mrs. Faber had referred to her by name. Now,

however, she said, “Mrs. Lawrence… I-It’s you?”

Caleb was dumbfounded. Mrs. Lawrence?

“Yes, it’s me. I have to thank you for taking such good care of Neil over the past three years. It’s all

because of you he’s grown up so well,” Clarissa said.

Her words were like a bolt of lightning that struck Caleb right on his head.

Neil… Neil was Clarissa’s son?

“Oh, I didn’t do much. Mr. Lawrence is the main contributor. You have no idea how attentive he is

toward Neil. Speaking of which, why’d you leave for three whole years despite him treating you so

well? You didn’t even reply to a single message of his, and you have no idea how devastated he was!

The person he loved deeply up and left him without another word,” Mrs. Faber said.

“Loved deeply?” Clarissa lowered her head.

She wanted to ask what had happened to Lucy’s child, but Mrs. Faber would definitely tell Damien

about it. She didn’t say anything.

“Can’t you tell?”

Clarissa kept her head bowed.

At this moment, Mrs. Faber felt conflicted. It was obvious Caleb was interested in Clarissa, but it was

also obvious that there was no chance of them being together. Therefore, none of them mentioned

anything about Caleb’s girlfriend.

“I’ve forgotten all about the past.” After the dishes were served, Clarissa said, “I’m doing great now. I’m

teaching at the University of Florin, and I’m also serving as an intern director at Eden Investment

Corporation. Oh, and I’m also teaching Caleb finance. He’s interning at Eden Investment Corporation,

and I can help him out there as well. He’s a smart guy, and he has a bright future.”

After that, she patted Caleb on the shoulder as an elder would.

“Is that so? I was wondering what he called me here for. So you guys already know each other. If so,

please do take care of Caleb for me.” Mrs. Faber glanced at Caleb. Her heart ached a little at the

tortured expression on his face.

“Caleb, not only is this your lecturer, but she’s also Mr. Lawrence’s wife. If you run into any problems in

the future, you can ask Mr. Lawrence or Mrs. Lawrence for help. Okay?”

Caleb had remained silent all this while. He seemed to have gone deaf. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
