You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 215
Getting married?
Margaret was so mad that she nearly broke George’s favorite teapot.
Fortunately, Yuliana managed to stop her from venting her frustration on the exquisite item.
Yuliana froze for a moment when she first learned about the marriage from her friends. After finding out about the island Matthew bought for Clarissa, Yuliana believed it was not just a baseless allegation.
After checking with a few more friends, she also got to know Matthew was not only a generous man but also very romantic. Yet, no one in the Tyson family knew about this. They were not aware of his wedding plan either.
But Yuliana believed Matthew was capable of making such a private arrangement.
Since they had previously opposed this relationship, Yuliana wanted to take this opportunity to sabotage them once again.
She reported the rumors to Margaret who had all this while been kept in the dark, was instantly exploded with rage.
Yuliana shot daggers at Ellie and asked, “You’re aware of this, aren’t you?”
Upon seeing how calm Ellie was, Yuliana knew she was on their side.
“Yes. And what you expect me to do? Break them apart?”
“How could you hide this from us? What if they had gotten married behind our back?”
Ellie pursed her lips. Then, I’d be the first to congratulate them!
Now that their wedding had become the talk of the town, Ellie regretted discussing it openly in the beauty parlor.
She knew something bad was going to happen when she was called home. While she was on her way to the Tyson residence, she texted Clarissa and told her to be mentally prepared for the chaos.
Before this, Clarissa had made up her mind not to step into the Tyson residence anymore. Even if she had to, she would only go with Matthew.
Since the Tysons constantly humiliated her and refused to accept her, Clarissa thought she did not have to play nice anymore.
She knew they would never be please with her no matter how hard she tried to win their approval.
The best solution now was for her to stay away from them and let Matthew handle his family.
Clarissa informed Matthew about what Ellie had said. She then looked at him with a pair of sad puppy eyes and told him about the humiliation she suffered.
“I’ll not go the Tyson residence alone anymore,” she added, “Whether you like it or not, you have to accept it. And I want you to know I’m not complaining. I’m just telling you the truth.”
Matthew looked at Clarissa’s pitiful face from the video call and felt so bad for her.
“Got it. If anyone calls you to go and meet them in person, you don’t have to do it anymore. Just tell them I say no.”
Clarissa responded with a grin. “Make sure don’t forget what you said today.”
Suddenly, she received an incoming call from an unknown number.
Though the number was not in her record, she somehow recognized the digits.
She raised her brows. “Speak of the devil. They’re calling me, but I’ll not answer it. You take care of it for me.”
Matthew ended the video call and immediately dialed the Tyson residence’s home number.
Margaret, who was already fuming, exploded with rage when Clarissa ignored her call, and she vented it out entirely on Matthew.
“You come home right now, Matthew Tyson. Explain your relationship with that girl. Are you going to hide the wedding from all of us? Are we all strangers to you now?”
Matthew responded in a calm tone, “I’ll go home tonight.”
After work, he went straight to the Tyson residence to accept the interrogation.
This time, Margaret looked up at Matthew with a scowl and started throwing her teacup at him.
Matthew managed to dodge the teacup, which later shattered into pieces when it hit the ground.
Margaret continued giving him a sullen glare but did not say a word.
The rest of the family members were shocked to see her throwing a fit in such a manner.
Even George could not help but step in and exclaim, “What are you doing? Are you trying to tear down the house?” He then turned around and looked at Matthew. “You. Sit here and explain yourself.”
As the most impartial figure in the family, George tried to stay as neutral as possible. He had not been involved in any family affairs after his retirement, but this time, he had no choice but to intervene.
Matthew’s expression remained stoic and sat in front of them.
Yuliana, who stood next to Margaret, dared not say a thing as she knew she was not in a position to make any remark.
“What’s going on?” George asked when everyone seemed settled.
Margaret instantly raised her voice. “Do you know your son is secretly planning a wedding? He’s going to marry Clarissa Quigley! He even bought her an island as a wedding gift.Do you know why I’m mad? Because he insisted on marrying her even though he knew we would never agree to this marriage! I cannot believe we have to find out about this from others. I cannot imagine if they had married behind our back!
” She then looked at Matthew. ”You think you’re rich, huh? You can simply buy that woman an island. What’s next? Are you going to give her the entire Tyson Corporation? Look at how she has bewitched you. She’s going to be the death of the Tyson family!”
“Watch your words, Margaret,” George knitted his brows. Obviously, he did not like the way she spoke.
He then turned his attention to Matthew. “Is it true?” From NôvelDrama.Org.
Matthew paused for a moment and admitted, “Yes.”
“Did you all hear that? Did you all hear what he just said? He has become Clarissa’s man now,” Margaret bellowed, ”Are you sure you’re still from the Tyson family? Are you still my son?”
“I’d be pleased if both of you could accept Clare as our family,” Matthew said seriously.
“Over my dead body!” Margaret exclaimed.
Matthew remained calm and did not retaliate.
“Stay away from Clarissa if you still want to be my son. Otherwise, don’t call yourself a Tyson anymore!”
Just when Margaret was about to leave after making that threat, she experienced a sudden pain in the chest and collapsed on the ground. While everyone else gasped in shock, Matthias immediately carried her and rushed her to the hospital.
There was no outcome from the family meeting as all the Tysons made their way to the hospital.
Matthias walked out of the ward and saw Matthew talking on his phone along the corridor.
Matthew sounded different from his usual cold tone. He had never spoken to any of his family members in such a manner.
“You don’t have to wait up for me. Just sleep early. Everything’s going to be fine, so don’t worry. Goodnight.”
Matthew ended the call and turned around.
Matthias looked at him and said, “She just slept. You don’t have to stay here.”
Matthew stood still while putting his hands in his pockets. He pursed his lips for a moment but there were hardly any emotions on his face.
Matthias remained silent and looked at him for a while.
He was surprised that Matthew had found himself a partner in life. He had always thought an emotionally distant man like Matthew would remain single for the rest of his life.
After staring at him for some time, Matthias decided to break the ice. “You surprised me. I never thought you’d fall in love. And you seem to be deeply in love with her.”
Matthew did not respond to his remark.
Matthias was not expecting a reply from him anyway. He continued, “I admire your determination, but you have to think of a way to defuse the tension between Mom and Clarissa if you don’t want to give Clarissa up.”
Matthew finally spoke, “Are there no easier ways to overcome this dilemma?”
Matthias thought for a moment and replied, “I don’t know. I might sound selfish, but I hope family should be your priority. You deserve someone better. But I also understand the pain you’d have to endure if you have to break up with the love of your life.”
Matthias understood what it felt like to be stuck in an awkward position.
And Matthew, too, could relate to his experience even though Matthias did not show his emotional vulnerability in front of others.
“Do you regret your decision?” Matthew asked.
Mathias froze for a bit and gave him a smile. “It’s getting late. You should go home and rest. There’ll be people here to take care of Mom, so she’ll be fine. “As for your wedding, don’t rush it. I’m sure things will get better eventually.”
Matthias turned around and left. He did not answer Matthew’s question.
At the end of the corridor, Matthias bumped into his wife, Yuliana. Matthias looked at her pallid face and wondered if she had overheard the conversation.
Matthias smiled and said, “Come on, let’s go. I’ll need you to come early tomorrow to take care of Mom.”
Yuliana gazed into his eyes but remain silent. She then left the hospital with her husband.
Matthew, too, left the hospital and returned to the Zen Highlands.
Clarissa might have told Matthew that she would not wait for him, but somehow, she could not sleep.
Upon hearing the sound of a car entering the compound, she bounced out of bed and ran to the window. When she realized it was indeed Matthew, she immediately ran downstairs to meet him.
When Matthew noticed how Clarissa had run out barefooted, he walked up to her and swiftly carried her in his arms.
He frowned and expressed his dismay, “Where are your shoes? Why are you still awake?”
Clarissa pouted. Worry was written all over her face. “I can’t sleep without you.”
