Chapter 85 Calling Him by Name The next day at work, Lily sent Clarissa a WhatsApp message saying

that she had someting to tell Clarissa.

“What’s up?” They were having fish and chips for lunch.

This restaurant specialized in fish and chips, and though it was small, it was always filled with

customers. Clarissa and Lily had managed to squeeze themselves into a tiny corner, and Clarissa had

ordered one of their in-house specials. The gravy was so spicy that it made her Jips bright red. “I went

to pass some documents to our director today, and she happened to be on the phone. I heard her say

that Lucas Smith will be coming to take over the audit department tomorrow. You want to go there,

don’t you? I think you can take this opportunity,” Lily said. Clarissa frowned. “No, I can’t. The human

resource department rejected my application, which means that I obviously didn’t meet the criteria

Nothing would change if I were to try again, Also, I asked Damien for help, but he turned me down.”

“Keep your voice down and stop calling him by name! Remember to address him as President

Lawrence when we’re in public. The walls have ears, you know.” Lily glanced around. “What I meant

was that even though the human resource department rejected you, you can still translate your resume

into German and give it to Lucas directly. Maybe you’ll be lucky enough to be chosen.”

Clarissa gave this some thought. ‘Lily’s right. It’s easier to deal with the boss than to deal with his

lackeys.’ Lily didn’t know that Damien had already translated Clarissa’s resune for her. She would print

out a few more copies so that she could pass them to Lucas once he was here.

Now that she had hope, she was excited. She and Lily laughed and chatted all the way back to the

company. Unexpectedly, they saw Damien walking out of the elevator when they were in the lobby

He was probably about to go for lunch.

“Hello, President Lawrence.”

“Hello, President Lawrence.”

Both Clarissa and Lify greeted him. Damien walked quickly. He frowned after glancing at Clarissa.

“You had spicy food again!” he said.

After that, he walked past her. Clarissa instinctively wanted to say something in retort, but since he was

gone, she didn’t say anything.

“What did he say?” Lily asked. “Was he upset about you having something spicy?”

She looked shocked.

“Yeah.”

“Is he trying to control what you eat? He’s definitely not saying that as the president, but as your

husband. “Lily shook her head helplessly. “You’re being mean to us singles.” “Don’t you have Landon?”

Clarissa toased. Her mind, however, was filled with Damien’s earlier expression. Indeed, he had been

liying to control her. “Meund him? There’s nothing between us!” Lily knew Landon really liked Clarissa.

If not for the fact that Clarissa was already married, he probably would’ve started wooing, Clarissa

already

Clarissa lowered her head, feeling bittersweet. She knew these short-lived moments of sweetness

could disappear at any moment, At the main entrance, Damien had yet to step out of the building when

he heard two people talking, sounding jealous. “She’s his wise. It’s only natural for her to call him by

name, unlike lis. We can only address him as President Lawrence.”

They walked into the lobby as they talked, and caught sight of Damien.

They immediately started trembling. If they had known Damien was there, they would’ve stopped

talking. He had heard them! The two of them greeted Damien before jogging toward the elevators. As

Damien left the building, he wondered when Clarissa had called him by name. She had even allowed

others to hear her.

Under normal circumstances, she would address him as “President Lawrence”. At liome, she would

occasionally address him as “hubby”. He had never heard her call him by his name before.

When Clarissa returned to the office, she removed Damien’s name from the bottom of her resume and

printed out two copies, one in English and one in German.

Her application to transfer to the audit department was considered an internal transfer, so she didn’t

bother hiding the fact that she was printing her resume. Howard happened to return to the office at this

moment. He saw Clarissa’s resume the moment it was printed out.

“Are you printing your resume, Clare?” He smiled.

Ever since he discovered Clarissa’s identity, le maintained a friendly attitude toward her, even if it was

only on the surface.

“Yes, I want to apply to transfer to the audit department.” Clarissa felt that it would be an honor for the Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

finance department is she were to get transferred to the audit department. Howard would probably be

happy about it. “Oh, is that so? Go on, then.” Howard went back to his office, looking thoughtful.

‘Clarissa can’t leave. I can’t let her go.’ If she were to transfer to the audit department, it would be his

funeral!
