You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

While taking the elevator down to her floor, Clarissa couldn’t help but think about what had just happened.

I can’t believe he actually told me to leave just like that, especially after that kiss we shared! Oh, well… I suppose it is inappropriate for us to bring our personal relationship to work, so confronting him about it will have to wait…

She was so absorbed in her train of thoughts that she didn’t even notice the elevator door opening.

It wasn’t until someone stepped inside that she snapped out of it, but it was already too late.

That person who came in was Amanda, and she was shocked to see Clarissa at the office.

“What are you doing here? I thought you were fired!”

Clarissa ignored her and patiently waited for the elevator to go down, but Amanda wasn’t about to let it go that easily.

“Where are you going, Clarissa? I’m about to head out on an errand. How about I give you a lift? Also, what were you doing here? Are you planning on coming back to work?”

Clarissa lacked of interest only piqued Amanda’s curiosity even further.

Judging by her outfit and makeup, it’s obvious that she put in a lot of effort into touching up her appearance before coming over.

“You came from upstairs, didn’t you? Which department were you in? Do you have friends in other departments? If so, who are they? I might just know them too,” Amanda asked with a smirk.

“I don’t feel comfortable having this conversation with you.”

At that moment, the elevator door opened, and Clarissa quickly walked out after saying that.

“Huh? Wait up! Clarissa, is there some sort of misunderstanding between us? I know we’re not colleagues anymore, but we can still be friends, right?”

Amanda followed Clarissa all the way out of the office building, the smile on her face suggesting that she wouldn’t stop until she got what she wanted.

Having no other choice, Clarissa confronted her directly, “What do you want?”

She simply couldn’t understand why Amanda wouldn’t let her go even though she was no longer working in the company.

“I just wanted to be your friend, that’s all. Come on, you know I mean you no harm.”

“Well, I don’t want to be your friend,” Clarissa rejected her coldly.

“Heh… You shouldn’t say that, Clarissa.”

Amanda walked up to her and stood in her path as she continued, “You may not know this, but I really can help get you back into the company if you want.”

Trying to bait me, are you?

“I don’t want to go back.”

“That’s fine. We can still be friends. I assure you, you won’t regret it.”

Unable to determine her intentions, Clarissa didn’t want to waste any more time and energy on Amanda.

She quickly stepped past her, hailed an incoming taxi, and left the scene.
