“Okay, hurry and get into the car.”
Right when Clarissa was about to get into the back seat, Mavis beat her to it. The former gave the woman a sideways glance before getting into the front passenger seat.
At that moment, Jeremy, who was standing right beside the car, turned around and heard Clarissa’s voice from the car.
“Thank you, Uncle Matthew and aunt.”
Pfft!
Jeremy staggered and almost tripped over.
Looking over his shoulder, he watched as the car drove away.
The man broke into a fit of laughter. He chortled even louder as he imagined Mavis’ expression.
I bet her face is contorting with rage right now.
Meanwhile, in the car, Mavis was on the verge of losing her cool when Clarissa called her ‘aunt,’ resisting the impulse to scratch the gorgeous young girl’s face.
“Girl, I’m not very much older than you, so just call me ‘miss,’“ she said through gritted teeth.
Without looking over her shoulder, Clarissa replied coldly, “You’re together with Uncle Matthew, so based on seniority, I should call you ‘aunt.’“
“Haha…”
At that moment, Clarissa could vaguely make out the hostility in the woman’s laughter.
Whatever!
Throughout the car ride, both Matthew and Clarissa remained quiet.
The atmosphere felt rather odd, but Mavis didn’t realize the awkwardness between the two.
Brushing aside the way Clarissa addressed her, she started chatting with the man.
“Matthew, let’s send this girl home first. Come to my house. I need to discuss the collaboration with you tonight.”
What collaboration? Why must she discuss it with him at night?
Clarissa pursed her lips with dissatisfaction.
In the meantime, Matthew hummed in response, “Mmm…”
In the passenger seat, Clarissa clutched her phone so hard that it almost broke in half.
How could he be so straightforward? I know we’ve already broken up, but doesn’t he feel ashamed of flirting with another woman in front of his ex-girlfriend?
“That’s great, Matthew. By the way, if it weren’t for this collaboration, we wouldn’t have met each other again after so many years. Do you still remember those good old days when we were still in school?”
