You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Those who knew the things that had occurred between the duo couldn’t wait to figure out Clarissa’s response.

Meanwhile, Yaala noticed the odd responses from the bigshots around her ever since Clarissa showed up and joined them.

Therefore, she was shocked because Clarissa seemed to be acquainted with the powerful figures. As a matter of fact, they seemed to be close acquaintances.

Evidently, it was a challenge from Jeremy. He wanted to force Clarissa into submission and confronted her in front of others.

Matthew cast an indifferent gaze at Clarissa with his abysmal pair of eyes that seemed to hold an entire universe in it. He behaved nonchalantly in anticipation of her reply.

“Ms. Zaha, can you introduce me to the celebrity over there? I have always been a huge fan of his! Can you please get him to take a photo with me?” Clarissa beamed and diverted Yaala’s attention.

Yaala was taken aback by the non-relevant request. Seconds after she snapped out of confusion, she stated, “O-Okay… S-Sure…”

Before she could grasp the situation, Clarissa had dragged Yaala along with her and made their way over to the celebrity’s side. Clarissa ended up behaving timidly like an embarrassed child.

Jeremy and the rest of his party were left behind, rendered speechless by Clarissa’s response.

That’s it? Is she going to ignore him and pretend he isn’t here?

Cough!

Jeremy couldn’t handle the awkwardness due to Clarissa’s unexpected response—it was beyond his expectation for Clarissa to think out of the box. She actually ignored the question that was directed at her.

He was intimidated and dared not look in Matthew’s direction.

Yarick had long departed with the influencers he had brought along with him. He knew it would be better to stay away from Matthew for the time being. To be precise, it would be wise to neglect Matthew until the conflict he had with Clarissa was resolved.

Jeremy caressed his nose embarrassedly and said, “Matt, I think the celebrity they’re talking about is the on-the-rise actor. However, he’s way younger than Clarissa. He’s nothing more than a brat, so you don’t have to be worried.”

In short, Jeremy implied the celebrity wasn’t a match for Matthew in multiple different aspects. Clarissa had merely approached him to have some fun.

In the end, Clarissa started wrapping her arm around the celebrity’s shoulders in front of others with a bright grin. Her glistering pair of eyes gleamed in excitement because she was head over heels for him.

Things had gotten inexplicably awkward.

Jeremy dared not say anything else because he was afraid things would spiral out of his control soon.

He found Yarick’s statement accurate. Clarissa was a cold-hearted woman. In fact, cold-hearted might not be enough to justify her cruelty.

I guess I’ll have to leave the rest to Matt and stop being a busybody!

Jeremy glanced at Matthew and noticed the latter almost crushed the goblet. Although he had been trying his best to suppress his emotions, he couldn’t stop himself from emanating a menacing aura, intimidating those around him. Jeremy couldn’t take it anymore and headed elsewhere with his partner.
