You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

When Hilary came to Clarissa’s hotel, the latter answered the door readily.

Good, she’s here, Clarissa thought.

I will make her pay for what she did.

Before Clarissa could speak, tears rolled down Hilary’s cheeks as she cried that her hands were tied.

“Clary, I’ll be honest with you. Mr. Jensen is the owner of the company Zach wants to collaborate with. He had no choice but to introduce you to Mr. Jensen. He wanted to introduce Yvonne, but Mr. Jensen saw your photo and insisted on meeting you.”

“Ha!”

Clarissa sneered. “So you sold me out?”

“No, no. We wanted to pacify Mr. Jensen for now until Zach can excuse himself. He’s really sorry about this. We didn’t know Mr. Jensen was at the party that day. We wanted to introduce you to the other young men there. No one is forcing you to do anything. If you take a liking to any of them, you can get to know them slowly. None of us knew that would happen.”

Clarissa was unfazed by her mother’s long-ass explanation.

“Are you done?”

“Clary, I’m also in a tight spot.”

“I don’t understand, and I refuse to understand. You abandoned me twelve years ago to marry into a wealthy family. You should bear the consequences yourself. Stop complaining to me. I’ll take care of you when you’re old, but other than that, I don’t have any obligation to ease your burden.”

Clarissa was firm. “Please leave now.”

Hilary frowned. Nevertheless, she left as Clarissa insisted on ushering her out.

She walked out of the hotel and climbed into her car, where Zach had been waiting.

“That brat refused to listen to me. I should’ve strangled her to death back then!”

Zach chuckled helplessly. “Don’t say that. What will you do now?”
