Joanna felt nervous when she turned around and spotted Clara. "Clara, when did you get here? Why didn't you say something?"
"I've been here for a while. It looked like you both were having a good chat so I didn't have the heart to interrupt." Clara slowly approached them, her tone indifferent and cold.
'Darn!' Joanna knitted her eyebrows. She did not expect that Clara would overhear her conversation with Ethan.
As someone with high self-esteem, Clara must be very hurt!
"Don't listen to his crap, Clara. He is just speaking casually. He is not such a person, he…" Joanna anxiously tried to make excuses for Ethan, but then realized that the man's words were simply unforgivable.
"You don't have to defend me, darling, I am that kind of person. It's good for Clara to know this early so that she will give up on her unrealistic fantasies." Ethan put his hands in his pockets. The corners of his lips curved upwards and his gaze was carefree and charming.
