You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Jeremy returned to the private lounge and took a seat quietly after taking a peek at Matthew with a timid smile.

On the other hand, Yarick focused on finishing his meal because he couldn’t be sure of the things he should talk about.

Lately, the bad-tempered Matthew was in a foul mood. Although they didn’t talk about it, they knew the reason behind Matthew’s frustration.

Therefore, the moment Matthew asked them out for a meal, they showed up without a second thought. The session ended up being awkward since they dared not talk about other things.

Yarick couldn’t stand the awkward silence anymore. He got curious because Jeremy seemed to be in a great mood and was all smiles after he returned to them.

“What’s with the smile? Have you gotten lucky and picked up a bill on your way back?”

Jeremy picked up the cutleries with a bright grin on his face. He replied nonchalantly, “Nope, but I have encountered a long-lost friend of mine.”

“Who is it? Do I know this friend of yours? Why didn’t you get your friend to join us?”

It was one of Yarick’s attempts to keep things alive because he had enough of the awkward silence. He wouldn’t mind having another person around to get himself out of the awkward situation.

“Oh! I’m talking about Clarissa! She’s a friend of yours as well, isn’t she? I think she’s here with her friends, but I think she has—” Jeremy beamed his reply.

Turning around and looking in the direction of the entrance of the private lounge, Jeremy chuckled as a certain someone had disappeared in the corridor.

Meanwhile, Yarick started at Jeremy open-mouthed after Matthew’s departure because he couldn’t be sure if he was right.

“Jeremy, was that Matt who had sprinted out?”

Jeremy shrugged his shoulders and replied nonchalantly, “Who else could it be?”

“He’s very fast…”

Jeremy continued savoring his meal. He was equally stressed and couldn’t bring himself to finish his meal when Matthew was around.

Therefore, since the source of his distress had departed, he decided to finish his meal as soon as possible.

Yarick was finally in the mood to finish his meal because things were no longer awkward in the lounge. He felt a self of relief and crossed his legs, leaning against the chair while serving himself a glass of wine.

“Have you seriously encountered Clarissa?”

“Mmm… Judging by her look, I think she’s here for a blind date with someone.”

“A-A blind date?”

Yarick choked on his drink. After coughing vigorously, he sighed. “Is she approaching another man when Matt has gone to great lengths for her? Tsk! She’s such a heartless woman! Perhaps that’s part of a woman’s nature, huh?”

“Speaking of which, I didn’t expect Matt would take the extra miles for her,” Jeremy added.

Yarick couldn’t help but express his regret over the things Matthew had done. They were shocked by the things Matthew had sacrificed in order to call off his engagement with Shermaine.
