Clarissa gradually lifted her head and was shocked to see Matthew.
She gasped and lowered her head, avoiding his eye contact.
At the same time, she also pushed Ryler away. “Thanks. I’m fine now.”
Ryler grinned. “What’s wrong? No one’s going to see us together.”
Ryler’s instinct told him that the man in the elevator was not someone who would not spread rumors about him.
He looked at Matthew and thought he seemed familiar but could not recall who he was. Anyway, he still greeted him with a nod.
Ryler had to drag Clarissa into the elevator as she refused to get in. She tried to hide between Ryler’s arms as she could feel someone was staring at her with a murderous scowl.
The few seconds in the elevator felt like forever.
When the door opened, she mustered up her courage and ran out of the elevator. That took Ryler by surprise, and he immediately ran out to catch up with her.
Donnie and Matthew, too, stepped out of the elevator.
“Shall we tell Ms. Quigley why we’re here?”
Donnie was worried that he might throw a fit. Matthew purposely made time for the press conference but still was a tad too late.
The only reason Matthew was here was because of Clarissa. This was why Donnie was afraid Matthew might explode with rage upon seeing how intimate she was with another man.
With a grim face and a cold voice, he said, “Let’s go.”
Meanwhile, Ryler brought Clarissa to his car. At first, he insisted on sending her to the hospital, but upon knowing that there were paparazzi around, he had to part with her. Despite being crestfallen at the turn of events, Ryler promised Clarissa that he would buy her dinner near the film studio.
On the other hand, Clarissa took a cab and went back home instead of the hospital.
She opened the door to her apartment, removed her shoes, and walked into her house, feeling utterly worn out.
Someone was sitting quietly on the couch, but she did not notice.
When she tilted her head and saw a man sitting right there, she screamed at the top of her lungs.
She got the shock of her life after seeing Matthew with his deadpan expression.
Matthew did not say anything, but his eyes were blazing with anger.
Clarissa clenched her chest and gasped, and her cheeks tinged with a sickly blush.
“You scared the crap out of me!”
She then collapsed instantly on the couch and breathed heavily.
Instead of showing concern, Matthew said icily, “Why should you be scared? Unless you’re feeling guilty?”
“Why should I feel guilty?” she mumbled while lying face down and refused to sit up.
“I think I’m going to…”
I think I’m going to pass out.
