You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 190

Thud!

All of a sudden, Clarissa slammed the mug down with a gloomy expression, startling Hilary.

She immediately grumbled, “Clary, you almost scared me to death. You damned brat! What’re you doing?”

Clarissa gave her mother a cold-eyed stare, and Hilary suddenly felt a little guilty.

“What…what’s wrong with you?” Hilary stuttered.

Clarissa replied in an icy tone, “You don’t understand anything and yet you’re here giving your two cents. How do you know anything about it? You’re not the one involved. And I don’t think I can help you with that matter.”

With that, she turned and left.

“Clary, what’s the matter with you? I’m not done yet. Come back here.” Hilary quickly fetched her bag and chased after Clarissa.

When she finally got hold of Clarissa at the door, she was suddenly shoved aside by Gina and lost her footing. “Ouch!”

Then, Gina went to stand in front of Clarissa and glared coldly at the woman on the ground.

“Don’t worry, Gina. She is my mother,” Clarissa clarified.

Hearing that, she stepped aside.

Clarissa then went forward and helped Hilary from the ground. Letting out a sigh, she asked, “Mom, are you okay?”

“Who is this girl? How could I be okay? Ouch…” Hilary stood up, holding her waist. Actually, it’s not my waist that hurts. My buttock hurt too as I sat on it just now. And I can’t massage them here in public.

Clearly exasperated, she shot daggers at Gina. “Who are you? How dare you assault me? Who do you think you are? No, I have to call the police. I must…”

Clarissa immediately stopped her mother. “Mom, stop. She’s my friend. Just now she was just worried that you might harm me. It was a misunderstanding.”

“Friend? What kind of friend is she? Why would I harm you? I’m your mother. You…” Hilary paused suddenly as she seemed to notice Gina and the car that was beside her. Good gracious, that car! And this girl doesn’t look like her friend at all. She seems more like a bodyguard.

With a glint in her eyes, she looked fixedly at her daughter. “Clary, is that your car? Where do you get the money to buy such a car? Also, are you sure she’s your friend? She looks like a bodyguard instead. Have you made a lot of money recently? Or are you…” she trailed off as an assumption formed in her mind.

However, Clarissa did not disclose the truth, nor did she want to tell her mother anything “What are you talking about? Since you have nothing else to talk with me, I’ll go first.”

“No, don’t go. You are not going anywhere until you explain yourself.” Pulling her arm stubbornly, Hilary refused to let her go.

Gina looked over and seemed to want to make a move, but Clarissa shook her head. Then, she turned to Hilary and heaved a sigh. “Mom, what do you want me to say? Do you want me to say that I’ve made a fortune?” “What kind of fortune? I don’t think you can make any fortune throughout your life. You’ve got a boyfriend now, haven’t you? Who is this man? I’m your mother, so you’ve got to tell me. If both of you get married in the future, I would be his mother-in-law. So, I have to run a background

check for you. Even if you refuse to tell me, I’ll send someone to check anyway. With the car plate number there, for sure I can find out the owner of the car.”

Well, Mom is a lot smarter now, but I really don’t want to tell her about it. Recently, I’ve been so annoyed by the Tysons, and I can foresee Mom’s reaction if she knows about Matthew. I really don’t want to deal with her now. Does she think that her daughter can marry into a wealthy family? I’m not even sure if I will be accepted by the Tysons.

Clarissa eventually became irritated and forcefully pried her hand away. “Mom, it’s too late for you to care about me now. Where were you when I needed you then? However, you don’t have to worry. I’ll definitely notify you the day I get married. But other than that, you don’t need to know anything more.”

With that, she quickly walked away from Hilary and got into the car. So, Hilary hurriedly took out her cell phone to take a photograph of the car, but she was too slow. By the time she tapped on her phone, the car had sped away, leaving her a blurry photograph.

Sighing, she put away her phone disappointedly. Needless to say, the little brat still hates me for the things I did before. But who cares? Even if she bears a grudge against me, she can’t change the fact that I’m her mother. Now that she has met a rich man, she wants to keep it from me? That’s impossible.

With that thought in her mind, she hurried home and got Zach’s subordinates to help her to find out the owner of the car in the blurry photograph.

I’m sure I can find the identity of Clarissa’s boyfriend.

While over on the other side, Clarissa grimly went back to the Zen Highlands. I know that even though I didn’t tell Mom just now, she’ll eventually know the truth one day. But I’m fed up with all of these. If the Tysons already know about my presence, it doesn’t hurt to have Mom knows about it too.

Leaning against the sofa, she hugged her knees and stared into space as she thought about various possible scenarios that could happen in the future.

For example, the Tysons coerce and bribe me, and I eventually succumb, take the money they’ve offered and leave Matthew. In the end, Matthew marries a wife who is a good match for him and they live happily ever after. Meanwhile, I return to my hometown, but Matthew takes revenge on me, causing me to become destitute and impoverished. Thus, I live miserably for the rest of my life.

Another scenario is the Tysons will pressure Matthew into leaving me. He would eventually give in and finally realizes that it’s a mistake to be with me. We part ways. So, he returns his family, while I’m devastated and return to my hometown. In the end, I spend the rest of my life alone. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Or, Matthew decides to elope with me after the Tysons try to repress us. We flee to a remote area and lived in seclusion. A few years later, we have a child, but the Tysons come and take Matthew away while I take the child with me to go and find him in D City. However, Matthew loses his memory, and the Tysons take away the child. After I lose the child, I go mad. And twenty years after that, the child turns into an adult and finds me, his crazy mother.

Well, these possible scenarios can be named Fatal Attraction, Tragic Love of the Rich, or… My Mummy Dearest!

“What are you thinking about?”

Clarissa replied subconsciously, “My Mummy Dearest!”

“What?” Taken aback by the unexpected answer, he pinched her cheek lovingly. “My Mummy Dearest? You want to watch it?”

Snapping back from her daze, Clarissa’s lips twitched at her thoughts just now. What on earth was I thinking? Those crazy scenarios ended up to be some cliché love story. It’s funny to pair myself, the

author of romance cliché novels, with such scenarios.

She grinned sheepishly and said, “Nope. I was just having random thoughts.” However, if we really separate, I must write a novel about our love story, and I would make Matthew suffer in the novel.

“Huh? Random thoughts?” After seeing the gleam in her eyes, he smiled amusedly and pecked her on the lips. “Tell me about them. I want to know, too.”

Clarissa smiled awkwardly and waved her hand. “There’s nothing interesting with my thoughts. Instead, I’m more curious about yours. Would you mind sharing them with me?”

“Sure. For today, it’s simple.”

“What is it?”

“You.”

Looking away with her red face, she pouted and kept silent. But Matthew went over and caught her lips again. This time it was not a mere peck, but a deep kiss.

He then brought her onto his lap, and the bulge under her hip made her so embarrassed that she did not even dare to move an inch.

After a long while, he finally let go of her luscious lips. He proceeded to plant light kisses along the curve of her neck and muttered huskily, “Clare, I really want to put you in my pocket and carry you with me everywhere I go.”

Clarissa beamed at his words. Well, all of my thoughts just now were absolutely not true. This man can never break up with me.

At the thought of that, Clarissa gave him a squeeze. “Then, I’ll go to your company frequently to see you whenever I have time. Mm, as long as you don’t think of me as a nuisance.”

“Really?” Matthew said surprisedly. I used to ask her to go, but she was always reluctant. Why does she so good today?

Grinning, she replied, “Yes. Now that your family knows that we’re in a relationship, I don’t have to hide anymore. So, is it okay if I have lunch with you on your working days?”

“Of course!” With that, he locked lips with her once again, using his passionate kiss to express his joy over her suggestion.

On the next day, Clarissa kept her words.

She prepared their lunch at home, brought it to his company, and ate with Matthew in his office on the top floor.

By the time she arrived, there were people in his office. He said that I could go into his office without giving him any notice.

So, as soon as she knocked on the door and entered the room, she met the eyes of several people.

Her face instantly flushed with embarrassment and froze at the door, unsure if she should step forward or retreat.

“You’re here, Clare. Take a rest first. I’ll be quick,” Matthew said gently.

The staff gaped at the tenderness of their president’s expression and tone of voice.

Clarissa quickly put down the lunch box and turned to sit down with her back facing them. Lowering her head, she kept herself busy with her phone.

After a few minutes, Matthew finished the discussion with his staff and dismissed them. They were completely dumbfounded. They finally snapped out of the brief surprise after they were out of Matthew’s office. Did a pretty lady go into the president’s office just now?

Meanwhile, in the office, Clarissa was swooped into his arms at once and smooched by him. Whenever we meet, the first thing he’ll always do is kiss me. I’m used to it.

After the kiss, Clarissa couldn’t help asking, “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Why did I not see anyone when I was here before?” This can’t be a coincidence.

Matthew smiled and stroked her cheek. “Are you scared? Didn’t you say you have nothing to hide? Previously, I knew that you were afraid to be seen by others, so I would send my employees away before you came.”

How could he not know about my concern? Otherwise, with my frequent visits to his company, how could it be possible that no other employee had met me previously? All along, it was Matthew who steered people away to allay my concerns. This man, in fact, is very considerate and thoughtful.

Feeling touched, Clarissa flashed him a smile and took the initiative to kiss his lips. “Okay. Uncle Matthew is the best.”

“Uh-huh. What else?” Matthew gazed at her with his gleaming eyes, seemingly wanted more from her.

She chuckled and replied, “I love you. Are you happy now?”
