Despite all the precautions they had taken, Clarissa’s movie was still watched closely.
Furthermore, the set wasn’t in an enclosed area. Hence, someone would definitely have spotted them and taken pictures.
Before they left the set, pictures of them were uploaded to the internet. Before long, everyone knew about it. Clarissa and Matthew had finally come out of hiding.
Meanwhile, reporters from every corner of the city were mobilized. Even the nosey residents of D City rushed to the set, hoping to catch a glimpse of them.
Luckily, Matthew was well-tuned to the situation. The moment he heard about it, both of them left right away.
By the time the reporters arrived, Clarissa and Matthew were driving away.
However, there were some desperate reporters who chased them down. They were motivated by a headline that had the potential for a big payday.
When Joseph saw the cars approaching them in his rearview mirror, he was shocked.
“Mr. Tyson, the cars behind us are catching up.”
Matthew’s expression darkened. It had been a long time since they were pursued with such intensity.
Didn’t a famous princess die in a car accident after being chased by crazy reporters some years ago?
Matthew’s eyes sparkled with greater intensity. “Ignore them. Just prioritize our safety.”
“Yes, Mr. Tyson.”
Joseph was aware that safety was paramount. Not to mention that Clarissa was pregnant.
However, the reporters behind them did not care for their own lives. Soon, their cars were neck to neck, and cameras started to flash. However, given that Matthew’s car was heavily tinted, they were unable to see the insides other than through the driver’s window.
Therefore, the reporters overtook them and continued taking pictures, causing Matthew’s gaze to turn frosty.
He gave Donnie a call at once and vowed to teach the reporter’s a lesson.
Inside the car, Clarissa huddled in Matthew’s arms. She was feeling both nervous and scared.
Despite how dangerously the reporters were pursuing and blocking them, they would be fine as long as Joseph drove steadily and wasn’t intimidated.
“Don’t worry. It doesn’t matter even if they get pictures of us. Not like there’s anything to expose. Furthermore, it’s impossible for them to take a picture of us in the car.”
“Mmm-hmm. I’m not nervous. I’m just…” Bang!
Before Clarissa could finish, they felt a forceful crash, as if someone had rammed them from behind.
Furthermore, their car had hit the one in front.
However, at the moment of impact, Matthew was holding onto Clarissa tightly. Although his body hit the front seat, he had managed to cushion the impact on her. Hence, she seemed to be unharmed.
However, that was only on the outside.
“Mr. Tyson, Mrs. Tyson, are you all right?”
Worried sick, Joseph stopped the car and turned to the back.
As for Matthew, he quickly checked on Clarissa.
“Clare, are you alright? Did you hit anything? Does it hurt anywhere? Is your tummy fine?”
Clarissa was briefly stunned but quickly regained her senses. “I’m fine. What about you? And Joseph?”
“I’m alright.”
“Mrs. Tyson, I’m fine too.”
After having stopped their car, the reporters surrounded them, hoping to get Matthew and Clarissa’s picture right away. As the cameras flashed incessantly outside, Matthew’s gaze darkened considerably.
Looking at Clarissa, he was still concerned about her.
“Joseph, open the door. Hail a taxi as we are going to the hospital.”
“Yes, Mr. Tyson.”
When Joseph tried to get out of the car, he was swarmed by reporters. Despite trying for a long time, he was unable to do so.
The next moment, the noisy ruckus outside fell silent when the door slammed shut.
“Hubby, I’m fine. So, calm down. Why don’t we wait for the cops to come before we go home? I’m really all right. Your nervousness is just making me feel worse.”
In truth, Clarissa was equally nervous too.
Hugging her at once, Matthew comforted her by patting her on the back. “Don’t worry. It will be alright. Everything will be fine…”
Despite trying for a long time, Joseph didn’t manage to get a taxi.
Looking at the reporters outside, Matthew patted Clarissa’s arm.
“I’m going down so just wait here. After I’m out, I’ll carry you away. So, stay calm and don’t move. I’m right beside you, hmm?”
Clarissa nodded.
The moment Matthew opened the door, chaos flooded their senses. They were bombarded with questions followed by cameras and handphones shoved in Matthew’s direction. In fact, he was about to be pushed back into the car.
The next second, Matthew roared, “Move aside!”
His aggressive demeanor stunned everyone.
