Love in Twilight by Tiny Mountains novel Chapter 556

The next day, Clarissa and Damien left the house at five in the morning. Neil was left in Mrs. Faber’s care.

On their way to Florin, Clarissa kept yawning.

“We didn’t even do anything. Why are you so sleepy?” Damien said teasingly.

“Aren’t you?” she asked in return.

“I don’t need that much sleep now that I’m older,” he said sarcastically.

“I suppose that makes sense. You’re almost forty, after all. I bet you’re close to losing certain functions.”

“Yeah, I am. We used to have sex on a daily basis, but now, we can only do it on alternate days.” Damien looked serious, but his tone was far from it. “You were the one who didn’t allow me to do anything last night. Why are you complaining about it now?”

“I’m not complaining!” Clarissa sounded a little flustered. “I was referring to you losing sleep. It’s not as salacious as you think!”

Damien didn’t say anything. He merely smiled.

It was a foggy day, and they couldn’t see any other people around. For safety reasons, he drove slowly. Clarissa soon dozed off.

As they stopped at a red light, Damien turned to look at her. She was bundled up in her coat, and she had pulled it over her head. They were almost like two forgotten wanderers traveling through the fog.

“It’s so foggy that I almost can’t even recognize you,” he said to her.

Clarissa knew that he was building up to something, so she didn’t say anything in return. She wrapped the coat tighter around herself and slouched down onto her seat. She figured he would just say whatever he wanted to say, anyway.

“I recognized you last night, but not today,” she muttered.

“Yeah, we only know each other when we’re naked. Once we have our clothes on, we’re complete strangers.” The light turned green and the car started moving.

Clarissa was at a loss for words.

She didn’t say a single word to him before they got to Florin.
