You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Yvonne left in a huff.

Clarissa exhaled sharply and put on her accessories again. She checked her reflection in the mirror and clenched her fists to cheer herself up.

“Clarissa Quigley, you can do it! Don’t be afraid!”

She forced a smile and patted her cheeks in encouragement. I’m still a pretty pixie!

When Clarissa walked out, she ran into a man who was walking out of the restroom, too.

It was Matthew. He had a cigarette between his slender and long fingers. His side profile was indifferent.

Stunned, Clarissa couldn’t help but wonder if he had overheard their conversation inside.

Her cheeks flushed as she greeted him guiltily. “Uncle Matthew.”

Matthew brought the cigarette to his lips and took a puff. As the smoke surrounded him, his gaze landed on Clarissa.

Feeling uncomfortable, Clarissa offered him a smile.

“Uncle Matthew, I’ll take my leave first.”

Matthew put out his cigarette and stuck both hands in his pockets before leaving.

Clarissa was dumbstruck as he left ahead of her.

I don’t think so.
