You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 80

Clarissa just stood there, staring at Matthew as he fiddled with the glass in his hand.

The atmosphere became incredibly tense with his silence, but nobody dared say a word.

Unable to contain her curiosity any longer, Ellie asked, “What are you doing, Uncle Matt?”

“It’s my fault.” Clarissa was quick to cut her off before she could say anything further.

She then poured herself another glass and held it up to Matthew as she continued, “Uncle Matthew, thank you for helping me and caring for me all this while. I hope you’ll forgive me for the mistakes I’ve made.”

It wasn’t until she downed the entire glass that he slowly looked up at her, and the two of them made eye contact.

This time, Clarissa maintained eye contact. She stared long and hard at him as if she was trying to stand up for herself.

With neither of them backing down, the tension was rising through the roof.

“I helped too, you know? See, I even shared it on Twitter!” Jeremy attempted to defuse the situation.

“Thank you.” Clarissa made a toast to him as well and downed another glass, much to Ellie’s surprise.

What the hell? Did she unlock the ability to hold her liquor after her trip home or something?

Fortunately, the tension was gone, and Clarissa sat back down in her chair. As Justin was talking to her about the film adaptations, Jeremy butted into the conversation. “Yates, you’re making a movie? Let me sponsor you, eh? I want to make myself some money out of the entertainment industry too! With us sponsoring you, your movie will definitely be a big hit worldwide, Clary!”

Yarick chimed in as well. “He’s right, Clary! With a little help from Yates, I’m sure you’ll make a fine lead actress! I mean, look at Shermaine…”

He stopped himself the moment he realized he had misspoke again, but it was too late. Everyone in the room had already heard what he said.

He then lowered his head to avoid their angry stares and went back to eating.

Stuffing his mouth with food was the only surefire way for him to keep it shut, and that was probably why he was so fat.

“Heh… Yarick is right, though. You certainly have it in you to surpass all those other actresses out there, Clary! Isn’t that right, Yates?”

“She has good looks, but looks aren’t everything, you know? I’m very strict when it comes to acting skills!” Justin said with a chuckle.

“Yeah, you’re right. I’ve never been to a drama school of any sort, so I think I’ll refrain from ruining Director Yates’ amazing work and just stick to writing!”

Ellie gave her a playful nudge. “No, that simply won’t do! With that pretty face of yours, you should at least consider being a model or something! Remember the pictures we took the other day? They’ve brought in quite a lot of customers to my shop lately, so why don’t you consider working for me as a model?”

“What pictures?” Clarissa asked.
