You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 46

Clarissa felt uncomfortable and scared with Luke around, particularly because he kept looking at her with prying eyes.

However, the more uncomfortable she felt, the more interested he was in her.

“Ms. Quigley, do you have a boyfriend yet?” he asked.

Clarissa furrowed her eyebrows as she knew with utmost certainty that he was deliberately quizzing her.

Damon quickly stepped in and came to her defense. “Luke, this has nothing to do with you.”

Luke let out a smirk while he looked at Clarissa and Damon with a disdainful look in his eyes.

“I’m just curious. Am I not allowed to ask a simple question like that? Could it be that Ms. Quigley is your girlfriend? I don’t think so, or perhaps you are secretly in love with her?” he retaliated.

“My affairs are none of your business!” Damon responded furiously before he turned to look at Clarissa.

There was an unspoken expression in her eyes, one that others could not seem to understand, yet it also conveyed a sense of sadness at the same time.

Suddenly, Ellie pushed Luke away forcefully and yelled, “What the hell are you trying to do? Clare is by no means a loose woman you can toy with. You better stop what you’re doing. She is like a sister to me, and I will kill you if you try to make a move on her. Mark my words!”

Luke stared at Ellie and saw that her protective instincts over Clarissa were indeed genuine.

He then smirked and said, “You are indeed something, Ms. Tyson. However, I don’t plan on making any moves on your bestie, nor would I dare to!”

“Make sure it stays that way.” Ellie then clutched onto Clarissa and said, “Alright, there’s four of us. Let’s play poker.”

“I don’t know how to play that game,” said Clarissa innocently. She was completely inexperienced when it came to gambling.

“It’s okay. I’ll teach you. We’re just here to have fun tonight. Just relax and play along,” said Ellie.

Luke chuckled. “Yeah, Clare. You don’t have to hold back.”

Ellie rolled her eyes at him then asked, “Do you know her that well to call her by that name?”

“Come on, we’re all friends, aren’t we? There’s no need to be so calculative. Right, Clare?” he said playfully.

While Clarissa smiled awkwardly and said nothing, Ellie gave him a fierce look as a warning.

The few of them then sat down and started playing poker.

At this point, Clarissa was learning the game from scratch as everyone at the table was teaching her how to play. It felt more like a class than a game to her.

No matter how much they tried to teach her, she simply could not get the mechanics of the game. Even when they intentionally made way for her to win, she still lost.

After a few rounds, Ellie completely gave up on teaching her. It seemed like her brain was only made for writing and was not wired to learn anything else.

Clarissa excused herself from the table to use the toilet, where she finally let out a huge sigh.

As she walked out of the toilet, she saw Luke leaning against the door of their private lounge, and her heart started palpitating as she was getting anxious again.

“Clare, oh wait, should I call you ‘Mrs. Tyson’ instead?” asked Luke.
