Eventually, Clark gave in, promising to accompany her for a shopping spree in the evening.
Clark descended the stairs after changing his clothes, and Serena happily hooked her arm through his.
"Clark, I knew you're always the best to me!"
"You're my sister. If I don't treat you well, who will?" Clark teased, scratching her nose playfully.
His cell phone buzzed as he arrived at the garage and opened the car door. Seeing Rosemary's name on the caller ID, he picked up immediately.
"Rose, where have you been?" As soon as he answered the call, Clark complained, "It's already 8 p.m. Do you know how worried I've been? You didn't answer my calls, replied to my numerous messages with just a word or two, and took forever to respond.
Are you trying to drive me crazy? Where have you been all day?"
Upon hearing this, Serena realized that Clark had been glued to his phone all day, waiting for Rosemary to reply.
