You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Hilary was fearful of Zach because every tender gesture he made was usually accompanied by motives and selfish reasons.

Hilary knew Zach too well from her years spent with him, and she was aware that if she wanted to remain as Mrs. Garrett and live a luxurious life, she needed to obey him.

Hilary did not even resist when he grabbed her phone.

Once the call was connected, Zach’s voice sounded very gentle and loving.

“Clary? It’s me, Zach. As an elder, I need to check on you since you’re getting married soon. Since this is also your home, come over for a meal with Mr. Tyson when you have time. Hehe, your mom was thinking about that too, but she was too embarrassed to call first. Please don’t take it personally, alright? I’ll be waiting for the both of you… Really? In that case, you are welcome to come by yourself. Jonathan’s having his holiday soon and will be returning home too, you siblings have always been close…”

Zach chatted with Clarissa for quite some time as he was trying to cultivate a good bond with her. Through the phone, he spoke to Clarissa as if she and he had a great relationship, more than the general father-daughter relationship.

While listening to their conversation, Yvonne was filled with jealousy. However, now that Clarissa had realized her dream, if she wanted to continue opposing Clarissa, her father would be extremely unhappy.

Most importantly, as long as Clarissa still had control over her, she had to avoid making any rash decisions.

Now that her relationship with Mason had hit a rock and he had been putting on hold their marriage plans, Yvonne wondered if he had discovered something. After getting engaged to Mason, even though she still fooled around, she remained cautious the entire time.

As Mason had been consistently putting off the marriage plans, Yvonne became suspicious.

After feeling that she was losing her position in her family, Yvonne didn’t want to stay any longer, so she got up and left.

As soon as Zach hung up the phone, he stopped her from leaving and said, “Yvonne, come here. Where are you going?”

Yvonne rolled her eyes and replied, “Where else can I go?”

Zach responded, “Clary is getting married soon. What about you and Mason?”

“How would I know? Since he doesn’t want to get married, what can I do?”

Zach furrowed his eyebrows unhappily and said, “Ask him to come over soon as I have something I want to say to him.”

Yvonne nodded and left.

Before Hilary could ask if Clarissa agreed to come for dinner, Zach was already staring at her with darkened eyes.
