You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Yael glanced at Clarissa. Seeing that the woman was still keeping her cool, she chose not to interrupt.

The corner of Clarissa’s lips quirked up. “Since you’re still here too, you’re even more shameless than I am. Why can’t I be here then? Is D City yours? What right do you have to control my whereabouts?”

“Hmph! You’re indeed thick-skinned. How can you still hold your head up high when you’ve already been dumped? My goodness!”

“So what if he dumped me? At least I had been with him before.”

Clarissa didn’t bother to explain that she wasn’t the one who got dumped. They won’t believe it anyway, so I might as well just admit it. But I won’t give them a chance to feel smug about it.

As expected, a hint of jealousy flashed across Patricia’s face, and she unwittingly tightened her grip on her handbag while caressing it. In a split second, she recollected herself before her gaze fell on her handbag, and she stroked it carefully, feeling bad about scratching it.

Everyone could tell that the handbag was of utmost importance to her.

Helen’s eyes glinted with disdain. As a matter of fact, she wasn’t fond of her friend either.

But she liked the way Patricia brown-nosed her as it lifted her mood at times.

“Clarissa, she didn’t mean it. We all felt sorry for you. You and Mr. Tyson were a perfect match, yet you lost to Ms. Smallwood only because of her family background. What a pity! But I guess Mr. Tyson and you genuinely love each other. In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you marry him. You two can still be together as long as you love one another. Since you’re still here in D City, I’m sure things are going well between the two of you.”

She was trying to hint that Clarissa was Matthew’s mistress.

Those words were even more hurtful than saying that she was dumped.

Clarissa’s expression turned grim as she said curtly to Helen, “Don’t judge me with your own logic. I know you’re willing to be a mistress, but that doesn’t mean that I want to be one as well.”

“What are you talking about? A mistress? Helen is officially married.”

“Oh, really?”

Clarissa emphasized her words deliberately as though she was implying something.

Those who heard it would surely be able to read between the lines.

Helen was mad and embarrassed. ”Clarissa, don’t take your bitterness out on us. We’re just concerned about you, so there’s no need for you to be so sensitive. By the way, there’ll be a gathering with all our ex-classmates this Saturday. They texted you in the group, but you didn’t reply. So I’m letting you know now since I ran into you.”

“I’m not going.”

“Back then, at my wedding, everyone already knew about your relationship with Mr. Tyson. Therefore, it’s fine if you don’t feel comfortable attending it. It’s understandable that you’re in a foul mood now, so we won’t mind if you don’t come. By the way, the gathering will be at the same restaurant in the hotel. Alright, I should get going.”

Right away, Helen fled the scene with her friend, leaving a troubled Clarissa.
