You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Ouch, it hurts like hell!

It really hurts!

Despite the pain she felt, Clarissa still forced a smile on her face.

“Uncle Matthew, I’ve done my part. Can you let me go now?” she asked.

Matthew let out a sneer and held Clarissa’s chin with his fingers, forcing her to face him with no chance of escape.

“You’re not allowed to speak such nonsense. What about the answer you promised me?” He pressured her.

Clarissa felt a surge of anger that very instant. He’s still insisting for an answer?

How could he be so shameless?

“Matthew Tyson, what do you think I am?” she blew up and roared at him. “You think I’m that slutty? Let me make it clear. I will never promise you anything in this lifetime.”

“This lifetime?” he challenged her in a calm tone. “My dear Clare, this lifetime is a long way to go. So what if you do agree to me?”

“I won’t. If I do, I would have broken my word and I don’t consider myself a Quigley anymore,” she retorted.

Wow, that’s toxic!

Clarissa felt like she had nothing to lose by being strict with herself and maintaining her dignity.

The grin on Matthew’s face widened as his dark eyes conveyed an ambiguous expression.

“We shall see,” he said.

“You don’t have to wait, because that day will never come.” She pushed him away and walked straight out of the room.

The only reason Clarissa slept on the same bed as Matthew last night was because she was in shock. Tonight, she was not going to allow him to get close to her no matter what.

She asked Mrs. Lawson to arrange a separate bedroom for her, and she made sure she locked the door so Matthew would not be able to sneak into her room in the middle of the night.

After locking the door, she lay down on bed in peace, but she couldn’t seem to fall asleep.

Undoubtedly, something was bothering her.

This was the first time she had developed feelings for a guy, and before the relationship had even gotten serious, she found that he already had a fiancée. On top of that, he treated her with little respect and dignity. However, Clarissa struggled to accept reality as she did not want to see Matthew in this light.
