Chapter 62
Chapter 62 Are You Pregnant? Damien's call soon reached the HR department. "Remember when I told you to clear out Clarissa's dorm room? Have you assigned II 10 someone else?" Damien sounded like he was being forced to do this. He even set the call on speaker mode so luke could listen to the conversation. At the same time, lie wanted to make Grandpa Lawrence give up on any strange Ideas the old man possibly had. "Not yet. Would you like me to withdraw the room from the list of vacancies?" Judy sounded very compassionate and understanding
"Yes, please, Clarissa still has some things left in that room. Put the room under her name."
"Got it, Mr. Lawrence." Judy then hung up on Damien.
Whien Luke and Madelynı heard the exchange, they were both disappointed. It was true that Damien had gotten rid of Clarissa's dorm room some time ago.
Luke was starting to doubt his intel. Could it be? Perhaps the marriage contract never existed in the first place!
"That's more like it. I'll have Lily send over my pregnancy report," Clarissa said in a casual manner, Then, she pulled out her phone and started typing on it. "Aren't you going to call her?" Thenderlying meaning of Damien's question was to hintat her to let Luke and Madelynu listen to her call as well.
Clarissa snuck a look in Grandpa Lawrence's direction, only to see him grinning from ear to
Cur.
Either he felt that Luke's words were nonsensical, or he was incredibly happy that he was about to become a great-grandfather:
This saddened Clarissa greatly. What if Grandpa Lawrence found out that none of this was real? What should she do?

Clarissa opened Whatsapp and quickly sent a text to her friend, Bethany MacMillan.
Bethany was a gynecologist at the hospital.
Back in high school, Heihany, Lily, and Clarissa were best friends. But as Lilyond Clarissa worked the same company, they tended to talk to ich other mon commodo Bethany Clarissa: I Metli, SOS! Please issua prognancy report that says that I've been prenant lor throo weeks! i'll have Lily crop ly the hospullopek ipli
Bethany: TOW? Are you gonting ready to become the official Mus. Laience'
Clarissa Just dolll Lily will teach the hospital in 10 minutes!! Bethany didn't press for more details instead, she just replied with a wayemji Soon, she was clone with the report, She took a plerute and sent it 10 olissa
Bethany: (Tell me what's going on with your love life. I heard from Lily that you got married to the CEO of your company. Are you afraid of a third-wheeler gate crashing your marriage?) Instead of replying to Bethany, Clarissa quickly drafted a Whatsapp message for Lily. Clarissa: (If you're free right now, head over to Bethany's hospital and pick up the pregnancy report she prepared for me. Bring it over to the Lawrence residence right now. I'll reward you handsoinely If you do this.) Lily: (You're pregnant?!) Clarissa: (1'll fill you in on the deets later! C'mon, I'm in a major hurry right now! There will be rewards!) After Clarissa was done sending the messages, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Alright! My roommate will be bringing my pregnancy report soon. Let's dig in, everyone," she announced casually. At the same time, slie fervently prayed that Lily would hurry up and grab the report for her. She couldn't tolerate any margin of error in this process.
Meanwhile, Madelynn and Luke were stewing in their own thoughts. The latter wanted money, whereas the former wanted to confirm that Damien and Clarissa got married due to a marriage contract. However, things had taken a completely unexpected turn. Clarissa was actually pregnant!
Damien kept studying Clarissa every once in a while. He knew she was no ordinary woman; the fact that she was able to keep her cool and lie like a natural in order to cover the truth up was more than enough to prove that. Even he was starting to doubt if she truly got pregnant from their nights together.
Forty-five minutes later, Lily finally arrived at the Lawrence residence. She looked around the mansion curiously, all the while gaping at the luxurious interior in awe. Clarissa then slapped the pregnancy report on the table for Dannien to see.
The latter took one look at it. The report was dated one week ago. He frowned and looked at Clarissa. Was she truly pregnant?
Madelynn also grabbed the report to study it Due to her career as an actress, she was familiar with the authenticity of props. The more she looked at it, the more she felt that the pregnancy report was the real deal. There was even an ultrasound report attached to it. Furthermore, the report came in a hospital package. This caused her to go pale instantly At that moment, she wanted nothing more than to kill Clarissa. However, Clarissa didn't dare to let Grandpa Lawrence look at it. It was a fake report, after all.
"Am I going to be an uncle?" Luke intended to expose Damien and Clarissa's marriage as a sham so that the latter could pay him to shut up, but he ended up screwing up the whole plan. "Yup! Aren't you going to give your future niece or nephew a gift in advance?" Clarissa stuck out her hand in a righteous manner. Luke looked very awkward at that moment. Not only did Clarissa successfully play him like a fiddle but he was also forced to
