You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 89

“He’s not? Doesn’t he care about you?”

Ellie was immediately riled up. What kind of boyfriend is he?

He was too petty previously, but now he doesn’t care at all! Ellie couldn’t help but feel that this man was too unreliable.

Clarissa wasn’t aware of her friend’s disapproval at that moment, stretching out her arm with a wince on her face. Ow, it really hurts…

“Anyway, it’s a good thing he’s not coming! What am I supposed to tell him if he does? That I got into a fight?”

Ellie was terrified when her friend put it this way.

She was the one who started this and ended up implicating Clarissa, so she had no right to complain about others.

Clarissa reached out to hug Ellie, but the police officer on duty interjected in a strict tone, “What are you two doing? No hugging! Sit back down!”

Ellie whipped her head around and glared at the plainclothes officer who had taken her statement earlier.

With a displeased look on her face, she retorted, “We love each other and just can’t help it, okay? Who the hell do you think you are, anyway? Why aren’t you in your uniform during working hours? And you even yelled at me? Just because you’re a police officer, you think can just yell at anyone? Do officers nowadays have such horrible attitudes? Be careful or I might file a complaint against you.”

The plainclothes officer smiled coldly and his gaze turned sharp, making him look inexplicably dangerous at that moment.

He didn’t say anything, only folding his arms over his chest, causing his muscles to ripple beneath his T-shirt. It was easy to tell that his sculpted body was the result of years of working out.

Ellie narrowed her eyes at him, but another younger uniformed police officer interrupted them.

“Captain Hayes, sorry for troubling you. Let me take over.”

The young police officer courteously led his captain, Shawn Hayes, away. After he settled down in his seat, he noticed that Ellie was staring at Shawn’s retreating figure.

“Ms. Tyson?”

Ellie withdrew her gaze and frowned. “Who was that? Why is he in casual clothes? And ‘captain’?”

“That’s the Captain of the Criminal Investigation Unit, Captain Hayes. He happened to come over to handle some matters, so he helped us out.”

Ellie scoffed. “Captain Hayes, you said? I’ll keep that in mind.”

Seeing Ellie gnash her teeth in anger, the young officer was astonished. Well, this is a first. Usually, all the women who meet our captain are instantly bewitched.

He shook his head subtly and continued with his work.

Shortly after, Matthew’s lawyer arrived to bail them out. Clarissa initially thought that the lawyer came alone. Thus, she was immensely relieved. However, when she walked out of the police station with Ellie, she spotted a familiar car parked by the doors.

Ellie was unperturbed, but Clarissa’s stomach lurched, and her whole body stiffened.
