You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Even though it was a phone call, Clarissa could tell how happy and excited Damian was.

She chuckled. “Ah, did you come to pick me up? Just wait a moment with Daddy. I’ll be out immediately, alright?”

“Okay, Mommy! Just take your time. Daddy and I are waiting in the car.”

Damian then handed the phone to Matthew. With a low voice, he spoke to Clarissa tenderly.

“We’re still a few minutes away. There’s no need to rush.”

“Alright.”

After Clarissa hung up, she turned around and apologized. “I’m sorry, everyone. I have to go back. My son is on his way to pick me up.”

Clarissa was beaming as she said this. Anyone who saw her now would associate that smile with warmth and love.

Skyler was quite surprised. “Ms. Quigley, you have kids? I thought you were either my age or younger!”

This was definitely not a compliment, but something said out of surprise or shock.

After all, Clarissa did not look like a woman approaching thirty. They would only believe her if she said she was in her early twenties. Anyone who looked good was subjected to being treated very well, and the years have been kind to her.

Clarissa merely shook her head and smiled. “Thank you.”

“No need for that. I’m only speaking the truth.”

“If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known! A mother already? Gosh! If I had known sooner, I’d have discussed what raising your kids feels like.”

It was unexpectedly Leonard who said this.

“Another time, Leonard. We’ll be working together so there will be other opportunities. I’ll also be asking you for advice in return! Sorry everyone, but I have to go.”

“Well, we won’t keep you anymore. We’ll continue this another day.”

They did not take the initiative to ask Clarissa and her family to stay for dinner. In this industry, there were many shallow friendships but not too many meaningful relationships.

Since they had only met for the first time, everyone still maintained a level of distance and politeness. Hence, there was no need for deep conversations.

After Clarissa left, Skyler looked at Conrad and smiled. “To be frank, Conrad, I’m very curious about this screenwriter. Before coming, my agent advised me to speak less, but that made me so uncomfortable. That’s why I did not ask much. But since we all know about it, aren’t there several scandals involving her? How does she already have children?”

Conrad smirked. “The entertainment industry is rife with scandals. What does that have to do with everyone? Truth or falsehood aside, do you believe in those scandals yourself?”

“You have a point. She seems like a nice person, and nothing like what people have claimed on the internet. I think that anyone popular would be dragged through the mud. Plus, she’s beautiful. Maybe people were jealous of that too?”

The rest stayed silent and did not say much, but they probably felt the same way.
