You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa refused to comply.

“Why am I subject to punishment? I cooked for you as a sign of gratitude for your help. I don’t work for you.”

At her remark, Matthew raised his eyebrows while his dark gaze glinted.

“Since you choose to cook, you have to do your best. Otherwise, if you come and go as you like, how can you truly repay me? If you don’t give your all, that means you don’t show genuine appreciation for my help, right?”

Clarissa twitched the corner of her lips. As if I wanna give my best.

Although that was her honest thoughts, she could not tell that straight to his face.

So she forced a smile and said, “Yeah, right. Everything you say is correct.”

“However, if you think this is too harsh for you, I can give you another option.”

“What is it?”

“Offer your body as payment.”

“No way!”

Clarissa had seen this coming as she knew Matthew had ulterior motives. Without hesitation, she rejected him decisively.

With a disappointed expression on his face, Matthew sighed, “What a pity.”

“I don’t think so!”

Clarissa continued in a determined tone, “Since it’s decided, I’ll take my leave now.”

Matthew smirked and stretched his long leg to stop her tracks.

“What else do you want?”

“Clare, stay over tonight.”

His deep voice and intense gaze as dark as the abyss caught her attention. One glance at him, and she was bewitched and immersed into it.

Clarissa bit her lips to get herself out of that temptation. She pressed her clenched fingers hard on her skin to pull herself together with the pain.

“I’m leaving now, Mr. Tyson.”

Clarissa walked past Matthew without falling for his trick and left that place frantically.

After staring at her disappearing silhouette, Matthew chuckled.
