Love in Twilight

Chapter 77

Chapter 77 Damien Was Furious While Howard was having lunch downstairs, he noticed Clarissa and

Rebecca in the case.

He frowned.

The person most unliappy with the establishment of the audit department was none other than Howard

himself, because that meant most of the staff in the finance department would be migrating to the audit

Department. This would undoubtedly lower his status as the director of finance in the company. Of

course, the almighty Mrs. Lawrence would get the promotion she wanted. Howard would have to

endure Clarissa bossing him around.

The second reason he didn’t want Clarissa to change departments was because she was well aware of

the financial accounts in his department. As Clarissa had a lot of experience in finance, she would do a

good job in the newly established audit department. Unfortunately, it would be a nightmare for Howard

If the audit Department cross-checked all the financial statements in finance.

In addition, Howard knew Rebecca on a personal level. When he was younger, the two of them used to

be in a romantic relationship.

Now, Howard was on his way to inform the president of what he had seen just now.

As an employee in the finance departiment, it would be taboo to meet up with accountants from other

companies. Even if Clarissa didn’t say anything out of line, Damien would still put up his guard around

hier if he knew about this.

The moment Howard boarded the lift, he bumped into Damien and his assistant.

“Good day, Mr. Lawrence,” Howard greeted Damien almost immediately

“Good day,” Damien replied curtly. He was on his way to have lunch.

“Mr. Lawrence, can I request a half-day leave? I saw my friend from college just now. She was just

chatting with Clarissa at the case opposite our company. If you have anything, please don’t hesitate to

contact me,” Howard said. “Alright.” Damien frowned and thought, ‘Clarissa? How does she know

Howard’s friend?’ For someone of such high position as Howard, he didn’t even need to request for a

leave. The only reason he informed Damien must be because of a mere coincidence. The moment

Damien walked out of the company, be shifted his gaze to the cafe just opposite him.

As expected, Clarissa was chatting with a well-dressed woman.

“Who’s that?” he asked his assistant.

“She’s Rebecca Steward, a partner of Great West Accounting Firm.” One of the many tasks of an

assistant was to low all the people with major positions in most industries.

Damien’s face dropped instantly. If he remembered correctly, Great West Accounting Firm belonged to

Joseph. As for the reason Clarissa was talking to Rebecca, it was definitely because she was preparing

for the onboarding process!

It seemed Clarissa had already panned out all the possibilities that might happen in the future. To put it All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

bluntly, she was literally two-timing both companies by sending her application to separate posts! If one

of them didn’t go through, she would have another chance at the other one. “Go ahead and have your

lunch,” Damien instructed. Then, he went upstairs and took his car keys.

Since she wanted to win over both sides, Damien wanted her to experience the feeling of losing both

sides! The first thing he did was call the HR department and informed them to cancel her application.

“But Mr. Lawrence, you’re the one who translated her resume.” Judy had already reminded all her staff

that they should look out for resumes that had the name ‘Donny’on it, so that they could give Clarissa

access to the first examination. “Cancel it,” Damien demanded, not bothering to explain further. Judy

wondered silently, ‘Did Clarissa get on Mr. Lawrence’s nerves again? Why is she always digging her

own grave?’ “Alright, Mr. Lawrence.” Then, Damien made a phone call to Frank and asked, “What is

your son’s number?” Frank was shocked. “My son? Why? Has he offended you in any way?” “Tell me

his number right now.” “Mr. Lawrence! Whatever my son did, I apologize in his stead! Please don’t do

anything rash!” “I said, right now!” Annoyed by his desperation, Damien gave the final ultimatum. Right

after Frank gave him the number, Damien dialed Joseph’s phone almost immediately “Where are you?”

Damien asked. The reason he built the audit department and passed down the no-gossip rule was

because he wanted Clarissa to change her mind about job-hopping. He even translated her resume

personally. Yet after all that, she still had the audacity to leave?! Clarissa’s decision left Damien fuming

in rage. “I’m at my office. Is.there anything I can help you with, Mr. Lawrence?” “Do you think I will just

call out of the blue if it’s nothing major?” Damien remarked sarcastically.
