You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 9

As he came nearer to her, Clarissa felt a chill running down her spine.

She instinctively grabbed the chain of her bag and stepped back.

“No, no.” She shook her head vigorously.

She did not have the guts to be mad at him.

Clarissa blinked twice before answering in a hurry. “No, of course not.”

Clarissa chuckled. “No, I’m not afraid. I was just nervous because you’re so much older than me. Mr. Tyson, I’ve always been polite to my elders.”

“Oh? Really?”

Matthew brought the cigarette to his lips and took another puff. The stench of tobacco attacked Clarissa’s nostrils.

It wasn’t choking at all to her.

“Yes.”

“Ms. Quigley, you don’t have to reject it. Ellie wants to help you. If you want to reject her help, talk to her.”

Clarissa frowned unhappily at his words.
