The Vengeful Son-in-law

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 NôvelDrama.Org content.

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.

When Tom saw her like this, his heart immediately became hot. He couldn't help but put his arm around

Phoebe's slim waist and said with a smile, "Phoebe, you're so beautiful. I must have accumulated

virtue in my previous life so that I can marry you."

Phoebe was also very happy to hear it, but Tom's hand was moving around on her waist, which made

her very shy. Although they were in the box at the corner and the others had left, she was still very

embarrassed as she was thin-skinned. She quickly slapped Tom's hand and glared at him, "Stop that.

It's itchy."

Tom chuckled and said, "I can't help it."

After what happened just now, the three of Violette didn't feel at ease to stay any longer. They had said

a lot of bad things about Tom just now and they were afraid that Tom would settle the score with them.

After Roger got out, they also left dejectedly. Now, only Tom and Phoebe were left in this box. It was a

small world that belonged to them two.

They were just beginning to enjoy the warmth of this dinner when Phoebe said, "Actually, Clarissa

really likes you."

Tom was frightened by her sudden words and said quickly, "Phoebe, I swear, really..."

"Listen to me first." Phoebe interrupted him angrily. "I'm not blaming you. Why are you always so

nervous?"

"Really?" Tom asked with some uncertainty.

Phoebe rolled her eyes at him. She didn't want to have verbose and said seriously, "Why don't you let

Clarissa stay by your side?"

"What?"

Tom was shocked and couldn't figure out whether Phoebe was serious or trying to set him up

"You clearly understand. Stop pretending." Phoebe pinched him gently and said.

Hearing this, Tom was even more confused. "Phoebe, what are you trying to say?"

Phoebe took a deep breath and said seriously, "I mean, why don't you let Clarissa stay by your side? I

think she is good."

Tom finally understood what Phoebe meant, but when he understood, he could not help but gasp.

"Phoebe, do you know what you're talking about?"

Phoebe smiled and blinked, "Of course I know. I'm asking my husband to accept another woman."

Tom was even more confused. Even though he and Phoebe had been married for so long, he still

couldn't figure out what Phoebe was thinking as she said this. It was completely unreasonable.

Seeing Tom's stunned and disbelieving look, Phoebe took Tom's hand and said more seriously, "Tom,

I'm serious. If you have feelings for Clarissa too, why don't you accept her?"

Tom finally understood that Phoebe was not joking or setting him up. She was serious. Phoebe was

really suggesting that he shall accept Clarissa!

He really couldn't understand why Phoebe had such an idea. He even wondered if something was

wrong with Phoebe.

"No!" Tom said firmly.

To be honest, Tom had accepted a Amelia. He had already felt sorry for Phoebe. He really couldn't

accept Clarissa.

Phoebe opened her mouth and wanted to say more. Tom immediately reprimanded her seriously. "No

need to say more. There's no discussion about this. I can't accept Clarissa."

"Okay..." Seeing that Tom was determined, Phoebe had to hold back the next words.

Only then did Tom smile. Unfortunately, he didn't see that when Phoebe nestled in his arms, she

lowered her head, her eyes flashing with sadness and reluctance...
