You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

“Yes, I am done.”

Clarissa knew exactly what she just said herself. Also, she knew how difficult it would be for her to utter those words.

That was why she reeled off everything in a breath and did not let Matthew interrupt her.

However, it was too late to regret since things were already done.

Certainly, she would not regret it anyway.

“Sure!”

Matthew finally answered in a deep voice.

He then replied coldly, “Come and take your things tonight.”

“I-I’ll do it tomor-”

“No! Since you’re leaving, don’t waste my time.”

He rang off instantly. Standing on the balcony, Clarissa felt rather hurt.

He did not even give her a chance to explain.

In fact, women were usually very melodramatic. Although she told herself that she would leave him for good no matter what, she still wished that he would make her stay.

Since when have I become such a fake? Clarissa scoffed at herself silently.

She pushed open the balcony door and came back in. Although she was trying to hide her emotion, Ellie still noticed her dejection.

“Clare, what’s wrong?”

She shook her head. “Nothing much. I had a disagreement with a colleague at work. It’s alright.”

“Are you sure? Why are you hiding from me if you’re only talking to your colleague? Are you… seeing someone recently?”

Clarissa chuckled, “That’s impossible! I mean, have you ever taken a good look at me? Besides, even if I am really dating someone, I wouldn’t hide it from you.”

Thinking that she had a point, Ellie nodded.

“That’s true. You don’t have the time anyway!”

To change the topic, Clarissa hurriedly asked, “What was the good news again?”

“Oh, yeah! Take a seat, ’cause you’re in for a treat. Haha! Just the thought of it makes me crack up… Didn’t I tell you that Shermaine came over to my place today? When she stepped in, I was about to…”

Then, Ellie told Clarissa about what happened that morning gleefully.

“Haha… I told you it’s absurd! You should’ve seen the look on her face. Well, it’s her fault for gossiping around like some nasty b*tch. I knew Uncle Matt doesn’t like her at all! Hah! Serves her right…”
