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.

Matthew towered above her, his gaze dark.

“Ms. Quigley, are you still mad because of the joke I made over dinner that night?”

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

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

“Then is there a misunderstanding between us?”

“Huh?”

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

“Then why are you so afraid of me?”

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.”

“I…”

“If you insist on saying no, that tells me you’re feeling guilty instead of being nervous in front of an elder.”

Clarissa frowned unhappily at his words.
