The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 495

As she spoke, her plaintive look was so pitiful that people instantly felt sorry for her.

There was only one person who didn't feel sorry for her — Tom. Instead, he felt creepy and his scalp was numb. He quickly buried his head on the table and ate with his head down. He didn't dare to look up at all as he was very nervous.

He only hoped that he was invisible and would not be noticed by Phoebe.

Of course, his idea was unrealistic. Phoebe immediately looked over and put her hand on Tom's shoulder. She said, "Tom, you and Miss Brown are friends. You must know Miss Brown's sweetheart, too. As a friend, why don't you help her and make a match between them?"

Hearing this, Tom was even more horrified. He saw a huge smile on Phoebe's face. Obviously, Phoebe knew it!

He was so bitter now. If he had known, he shouldn't have come over tonight. This time, Phoebe must have misunderstood him. There's nothing he could do to remove the stigma off his name.

He had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll try."

Phoebe immediately glared at him and did not continue to expose him. Phoebe knew very well how to "quit while you're ahead". She did not really intend to embarrass Tom and she took the initiative to change the subject.

Tom breathed a sigh of relief and was a little grateful to Phoebe. If Phoebe really wanted to make a scene, he had no choice. After all, Clarissa acted so obviously just now? Anyone who wasn't stupid could tell.

Therefore, Tom rolled his eyes at Clarissa. But he saw Clarissa being disappointed and resentful. What a pitiful girl! How could he stay angry when Clarissa was like this.

Anyway, he decided that when they got back this time, he would explain to Phoebe. There was nothing between him and Clarissa anyway.

The others around them could also see that Clarissa had feelings for Tom. At once, their expressions were exceptionally complicated, especially those men, who all felt extremely jealous and hateful.

After a few more words, Clarissa did not stay here any longer shamelessly. After all, she was a public figure and still maintained the image as a jade lady. She could show her feelings too obviously. If it was spread, it would be bad for her reputation. She didn't care about her reputation very much. The point was that she was an artist of the HY Media. It was not good for HY Media if her reputation was damaged.

She couldn't implicate the HY Media because of her affair. She still had this professional ethics.

After she left, Phoebe immediately said with a half-smile, "Awesome, Mr. Howard. You're so powerful that even big stars miss you."

It happened again...

Tom quickly explained, "Absolutely not! Nothing happened between Clarissa and I. We are very innocent. It is definitely not what you think!"

"Really?" Phoebe put her hand on Tom's waist and she was about to pinch it at any time, which made Tom's muscles tighten immediately. "Then tell me, what am I thinking?"

"Uh..." Tom was stunned and he immediately wanted to slap himself. Phoebe hadn't even said it yet. Why was he so guilty? Wasn't he having a guilty conscience?

"Honey, don't make things difficult for me. I swear to you. Clarissa and I are really innocent. If I lied to you..." Tom was about to swear seriously. Soon, his mouth was blocked by Phoebe's lips. Phoebe smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. I don't blame you."

Tom breathed a sigh of relief. "Wait a minute. Why does this sound a little strange? She doesn't blame me. It means that she still suspects that I have an affair with Clarissa." Tom thought.

Just as Tom was about to explain, Phoebe spoke again. "Tom, Clarissa is so beautiful, and she's still a big star. Haven't you ever been tempted?"

She looked very serious, and her eyes were full of doubts. She couldn't understand why Tom wasn't tempted.

Tom patted his chest and said, "Of course not. I have a beautiful wife like Phoebe. How can other women be compared to you?"

"Damn it, when did you become so glib?" Phoebe blushed and rolled her eyes at Tom coquettishly and she became exceedingly fascinating and charming. Today, her outfit was indeed not as beautiful as Clarissa's. But the mature charm on her body was not something that an innocent virgin like Clarissa could have.
