You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa placed her hand on Matthew’s mouth to stop him from speaking and making her flustered.

Pressing on top of him, she rejected his teasing in a serious tone, “I’m going to get very, very angry if you continue acting like this.”

Matthew’s expression softened as he held Clarissa’s hand.

Staring attentively at Clarissa’s face, he smiled and said, “But that’s the truth.”

The corner of Clarissa’s lips twitched. After scoffing at Matthew, she turned her back on him.

Wait. Why am I arguing with him on the bed?

Before Clarissa could even get out of bed, she was pulled back by Matthew.

As she let out a cry, Matthew pressed himself on top of her and kissed her again.

This time, he stopped talking and started doing what he was planning to do in the first place.

Clarissa didn’t go to Justin Yates Studio the next morning because she was ordered by Matthew to rest in Zen Highlands.

That included not mentioning Justin every now and then.

Clarissa found Matthew funny, but she obeyed his instructions anyway. It was also a chance for her to rewind and chill.

Clarissa was enjoying the refreshing autumn breeze while drinking a cup of tea and reading a book.

However, her serene moment was interrupted by someone else.

Hilary called Clarissa to inform her that Jonathan was back from overseas and asked her to come home to meet her brother.

Since Clarissa couldn’t reject her mother’s request for her to meet her half-brother, she had to go out to get a gift for him.

She might as well get something for herself too since she was going out.

D City was such a small place that she could even meet someone that she didn’t want to see while trying on some clothes.

“Isn’t this my stepmother’s daughter, my dearest sister?”

Yvonne’s voice rang through the store. Her exaggerating attitude stood out in the high-end boutique.

Clarissa’s attractiveness was distracting enough, but Yvonne’s action drew everyone’s attention to the former instantly.

Yvonne had a few friends accompanying her when she stood beside Clarissa and looked at the clothes she tried on.

A hint of jealousy flashed across Yvonne’s eyes as she taunted Clarissa, “This is a beautiful dress, but it is very expensive. Can you afford it with whatever little money that your mother gave you? Not to mention, my father is the one supporting your mother.”

Clarissa wanted to refute Yvonne badly, but it would only make herself seem as uncultured as Yvonne.
