You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Matthew showed no reaction to what Ellie just said and just sat down.

“Your friend Clarissa?”

“Yes. What about it?”

“She’s not coming back to D City anymore?” He said after a moment of pondering.

“Uncle Matt, what are you trying to say here? Don’t change the subject. Clarissa is not involved in our problem. Let me just ask you, is Shermaine really going to be my aunt?”

Matthew gave Ellie a profound look. “What if she is?”

“Uncle Matt, you… “

Right then, Ellie thought about what Clarissa just said. I really can’t do anything about it.

Hence, she just snorted and gave up. “Clare was right. Being with Shermaine is your choice, I can’t interfere with that. Maybe she’s evil to me but you may have seen something in her. I can give you my blessing, but don’t ask me to like her. This is the limit of how much I can tolerate this.”

“Clarissa said that?”

“Huh? Yes?”

Ellie did not know what was going on. Why is he constantly shifting the conversation to Clare?

Immediately after, Matthew stood up and left. His eyes were dark and cold.

It all felt so ridiculous to Ellie, but she decided to take Clarissa’s advice and not be angry. Be like Clare. Have an open mind and stay calm.

One month had gone by.

Clarissa’s hometown was cooling as summer had come to an end. But, when she set foot in D city, she could feel heat waves plunging at her. The city felt like a big hot sauna and it was not very comfortable.

After leaving the airport, Clarissa immediately rushed to the hospital. At the hospital, she found Hilary, whose face was pale as snow under the light.

When Hilary saw Clarissa, her tears started streaking down her face, a sight that Clarissa was not used to seeing.

Hilary held Clarissa’s fingers tightly in her hand as she sought forgiveness from her.

“Clary, I know I made a mistake. Look at me, I’m not even living well. When I fell sick, it became clear to me that no one actually cares about me. The maids don’t give a damn, Zach is always busy, not to mention Yvonne. She never accepted me in the first place. I only have you now… “
