You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 235

The most popular trend on Twitter at that moment was none other than the shout-outs to Mr. Tyson for being an incredible boyfriend and protecting his fiancée.

The Incredible Mr. Tyson, the Perfect Mr. Tyson… Regardless of what the others called him, one fact remained true. He had become the idol of every woman online.

Naturally, there were many speculations about how the powerful Mr. Tyson got together with @clarissa.quigley.

Many netizens, who were unaware of the story, stepped up and invented their own stories about it. There were tons of theories about love at first sight, or office love, and the theories only became wilder as time passed. Since Clarissa wrote novels under the penname @clarissa.quigley, many made their way to her public Twitter page and shared their theories.

Naturally, Clarissa didn’t reply to any of them, but she was happy that she could easily read the stories that the netizens came up with.

Actually reading those stories, however, got her a little upset.

She was lying in Matthew’s arms at that moment and had her back to him. Matthew, on the other hand, was stroking her hair or caressing her neck and arm with one hand. He used his free hand to hold and read a notebook and worked.

The woman in his arms was mostly quiet, but she would giggle or shake her head in disapproval every now and then.

Matthew didn’t complain. He simply grinned and turned to her from time to time to look at her with a loving gaze.

“Why do all their stories feature me courting you? Or that you made me fall for you with a flip of a hand? That’s not even possible!” protested Clarissa before she tilted her head up and pouted at Matthew.

Matthew slowly shifted his sight from the notebook and stared at the woman. He caressed the woman as he pointed out, “If we’re being honest, though, you are the one who seduced me.”

He had a straight face on and acted as if he was discussing a serious matter. He even looked like he was telling the truth.

Clarissa’s lips twitched. She had her head tilted up, and her eyes bulged. The glow in her eyes was practically screaming, “Are you kidding me?”

If she could, Clarissa would’ve turned her face into a question-mark and angry emoji to emphasize her feelings at that moment.

Matthew chuckled and asked, “What are you thinking, Clare?”

Clarissa wrinkled her nose in front of him, then sneered.

“Sure, you are absolutely right, Mr. Tyson. Everything the president says is right.”

Clarissa didn’t want to argue with Matthew because she knew what tricks he had up his sleeves. The more she tried to refute the matter, the more the guy would twist her words to his advantage. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Silence is the best way to deal with him.

In the end, Clarissa only sneered in retaliation before she turned her attention back to her phone.

Matthew raised his brow upon seeing the lady’s response to his words. Pfft, she’s so calm. She’s not even jumping and making a fuss. That is not cute at all!

Matthew’s sexy lips curved up into a grin. He pinched her cheek a little, but she swatted his hand off in annoyance.

She even turned around and completely ignored him.

Matthew couldn’t resist laughing aloud and teasing, “Are you angry?”

“I wouldn’t dare!”

“Pfft, there is nothing my Clare isn’t brave enough to do.”

“Awh, whatever do you mean, dear Mr. Tyson? Someone as lowly as me would never dare to go against you because I don’t deserve you.”

Matthew turned speechless.

Really? You’re denying being angry while saying those words in that tone?

Matthew kept quiet for a moment. He messed with her hair a little, but she never responded to him.

Cornered, Matthew asked, “Clare, is it too late for me to apologize?”

Clarissa grinned and replied cruelly, “WAY too late.”

Matthew laughed. Clarissa turned around and poked at his cheeks. Poke! Poke! Poke!

What is he laughing at?

Matthew held her hands and kissed them.

“Darling~”

Clarissa shivered. That is so corny.

“Please don’t call me that. I surrender. We’re even now, okay?”

I can’t stand it if he continues to be so corny.

Matthew chuckled at that. His deep voice moved past his throat and carried an arousing static that affected her entire body. That was even more effective than his corny words.

Clarissa extended her arms and clamped Matthew’s mouth shut. “You are not allowed to laugh!” commanded Clarissa.

Matthew suppressed his laughter and pried her hand away before kissing her palm. “Please forgive me, Clare,” said Matthew, “I was just joking. Don’t be angry.”

Clarissa harrumphed, then added, “I know you were joking, but certain jokes are out of lines. You’re insulting my pride as a woman. Do you understand what that means?”

She finally seized an opportunity, so she wanted to teach Matthew a life lesson.

“You were the one who courted me and refused to give up, even after I rejected you. You can’t turn it all around like that. What would others think if they heard what you said? They would assume that I am a vile woman who did something underhanded just to marry a rich guy. I…”

“You’re right. My Clare is not a gold-digger at all. I know that better than anyone else,” interrupted Matthew, as he held her tightly in his arms. He was smiling when he further cooed, “I’ve learned my lesson, and I will never tell anyone that joke. This is just an inside joke between us, and I will not let anyone learn of it.”

Matthew kissed Clarissa’s lips before he added, “You know that I am not the kind of man who would spread rumors like that.”

Clarissa grinned. She was about to reply when her lips were kissed again. Words would never be as effective as a kiss.

Ellie had known about Clarissa’s incident for a while, but she never called to ask how Clarissa was doing. The reason behind that was simple. Ellie knew that her Uncle Matt would solve the matter quickly.

However, Tyson Corporation’s official Twitter account had publicly recognized Clarissa as Matthew’s fiancée. Everyone in the country knew about it, so it was not possible for the Tysons to be unaware of it.

Ellie hadn’t been home, but even she could imagine how Margaret would react.

Ellie had just been discharged from the hospital and had only recently reached home. Still, she could tell that even the phrase ‘immense fury’ would not justify what Margaret was feeling at that moment. Uncle Matt caused such a big mess, but I never heard the news about him being summoned over to be reprimanded or receive any punishments… Have the Tysons finally accepted the reality and let go?

Uncle Matt had already done all that, so what is the use of their protests?

Uncle Matt is not a kid, nor is he someone who could be restrained or coerced. He has the entire Tyson Corporation at the palm of his hands, and his respect for Old Mrs. Tyson obviously won’t be enough to make him abandon Clarissa.

Things in the Tyson residence had been calm. At the very least, the family couldn’t cause too much ruckus. Ellie shared her point of view with Clarissa when the two ladies talked.

“They couldn’t do anything about Uncle Matt, so it’s likely that they are just praying that you guys won’t get married too quickly. Their hands would be completely tied then.”

Ellie noted how much calmer Clarissa had turned, so the former added with a smile, “The male leads in tv shows and novels would often be cut off from their family. Their finances would also be restrained, but that won’t apply to Uncle Matt. The two of you can be together peacefully.”

Clarissa smiled and replied, “Yeah. I’m not actually that worried about others’ protests or malicious rumors. I’m more open now. Even from the beginning, this matter is between Matthew and me, so his thoughts and decisions are what counts in our relationship.”

“I’m glad you see it that way. Nevertheless, Uncle Matt would never leave you.”

Clarissa grinned sweetly and happily. That prompted Ellie to tsked aloud and tease Clarissa. The two ladies hung out for a while before Ellie tried to get some gossips about the two lovebirds. Unfortunately, Clarissa never falls for any verbal traps and turned the tables on Ellie.

Earlier, Ellie talked about an old friend and asked Clarissa to follow up with the police officers on the matter. Clarissa didn’t push for more information back then, but the opportunity had since presented itself. Hence, Clarissa couldn’t resist interrogating Ellie about what secrets the latter was hiding.

Ellie acted even more evasively than Clarissa did. The former didn’t even admit to asking for that favor, so Clarissa had no choice but to back away.

It was not like Clarissa could force Ellie to share anything if the latter refused to speak up. Plus, it’s obvious that Ellie is focused on building her career, so there is no saying if this secret is about her love life at all.

Clarissa stopped prying. The two ladies continued hanging out and having fun together.

Catherine didn’t join the ladies. Instead, she waited for the two of them to leave. As fate would have it, the two ladies had just left when Catherine received a call from Mimi.

It didn’t matter how many good words Mimi put in, or how she begged. Catherine remained calm the entire time.

In the end, Gloria insulted Catherine for being heartless and leaving her own daughter to die. Catherine simply refuted, “Oh, you’re my daughter? And where is that revelation when your brother passed away? Remember how you abandoned Clary and me back then? Clary struggled for so long and finally caught a break, and your family came shamelessly after her. Aren’t you supposed to be the mature one taking after her? Have you no shame? I won’t even bother talking to you if you’re not my daughter. Never call again unless you’re on your deathbed. Also, never bother Clary again. You guys should pay back the money you owe her as soon as possible.”

After saying her piece, Catherine hung the phone up.

Julia had been keeping Catherine company the entire time. The former kept quiet and acted like she never heard a thing.

Catherine, however, grinned bitterly and commented, “My child is so terrible. I’m so glad that heaven is kind and blessed me with a granddaughter like Clare. “

Julia grinned and agreed, “Miss truly is an amazing woman.”

“Right? You know, my Clare is beautiful from the very beginning. She was the cutest baby in the hospital, and back then…”

Reminiscing about Clarissa’s childhood got Catherine to forget about all her troubles momentarily.

Unfortunately, life had a funny way of challenging everyone.

Clarissa bumped into Hilary at the beauty parlor.

Hilary was furious when she called Clarissa earlier, but the latter refused to pick up. Hence, Hilary was not going to let Clarissa off so easily when they bumped into each other in the beauty parlor.

Hilary hurried over because she could tell that Clarissa didn’t want to talk. The former held the latter’s arm tightly to prevent the latter from leaving.

Hilary’s eyes glowed with fury instead of happiness.

Clarissa was slightly stunned and taken aback when she looked into Hilary’s eyes.

Once again, the former saw how much Hilary hated Clarissa.

That was not something Clarissa was unfamiliar with.

Clarissa’s heart had no warmth, but Hilary ignored her distance and distaste, anyway. The latter said, “What is the meaning of this, Clarissa? I am your mother! Are you avoiding me and ignoring me because you’re with Matthew Tyson now? Do you think that gives you the right to disown me? Not a chance. It doesn’t matter who you marry. You will always be my daughter.”

Ellie frowned as she listened from the side.

She didn’t say or do anything.

Clarissa, however, sneered. She flung Hilary’s arm away roughly and refuted, “I never denied that you are my mother, but have you ever treated me like a daughter? Hell, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve asked that question, and I honestly don’t want an answer from you anymore. What do you want to say this time? Are you going to badmouth Matthew again? Or ban me from marrying him?”
