You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa’s cold attitude made Zach a little awkward. He gave his wife another nudge from behind. Urgh. We’re supposed to be forging a good relationship with Matthew right now. Look what you’ve done. Even the air feels stale now.

Zach was placing the blame entirely on Hilary and stared daggers at her.

Mason feigned ignorance toward their awkward behavior and began speaking to Clarissa with a bright smile plastered on his face. “Hey, Clary. Happy birthday! I’ve heard so much about you from Yvonne. We were so busy with our engagement, so we didn’t get to really hang out with you before this. Clary, let’s get together more when you’re free, okay?”

Upon hearing that, the corners of Clarissa’s mouth twitched. Clary? Do you even know me? How thick-skinned.

Mason’s words felt especially fake and empty, especially when Yvonne was standing there with an indignant expression.

“Clary, you must be really close to Yvonne, right?”

“Clary, you’re close in age with Yvonne. If you two want to go shopping or have high tea together, I can be your chauffeur! Oh, this is so random, but you guys actually do look similar to each other! Hehe! You two are really fated to be sisters, am I right?”

Mason did not seem the slightest embarrassed by his ridiculous remarks, nor did he seem bothered by the ugly expressions of those standing beside him.

In fact, he even tried getting Yvonne to join him. “Yvonne… Hehe! Why aren’t you talking? Weren’t you telling me that you really missed Clary back at home? You also talked about how pretty and talented Clary is during our dates… “

Clarissa could no longer bear with Mason any longer.

“Ahem… Ahem… Mr. Wynter, please excuse me. I have to go to the washroom to fix my makeup for a bit.”

Clarissa had used to think that it was fake and ridiculous for a woman to talk about fixing her makeup out of the blue.

However, at that moment, she experienced first-hand just how useful that excuse could be.

Without waiting for Mason to reply, she strode off without looking back.

Matthew was also disinterested in dealing with those unimportant people and chased after Clarissa without even looking them in the eye.

Meanwhile, Matthew’s friends were feeling fired up once more as they watched the couple walk off together. Whistling and cheering noisily, they talked about how scandalous the two of them were acting.

Yarick had found himself interested in some female celebrity after lots and lots of flirting. The two of them had the same things in mind, and they immediately hit it off with each other. Before long, the pair could be seen cuddling suspiciously in a corner.

Upon seeing the two of them, Ellie shook her head and turned to Damon with her glass of wine in hand.

“Not over Clarissa yet?”

Ellie’s voice was so soft that only Damon could hear her.

Damon smiled wearily, shaking his head. “It’s just that the feelings of regret and loss are simply too bitter.”

It would be a lie to say that he was deeply in love with Clarissa or that watching the proposal was heartbreaking for him. His feelings for her seemed insignificant compared to that of Matthew’s.
