You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

When Shermaine returned to the Smallwood residence, the first scene that met her eyes was her mother crying, looking vulnerable and pitiful.

She was already in a bad mood, so when she saw her mother crying like this, she felt even more irritable.

“Shermaine, are you back? The Tyson family has gone too far, especially Matthew. I called your Uncle Jacque just now. The Tysons really need to be taught a lesson. Just one word from the Wynters, and the Tyson family will get on their knees and apologize for what they have done.”

Shermaine had heard these words from her mother countless times, and she had been hopeful.

However, her hopes were crushed each time.

“Mom, don’t be so childish. What can the Wynters do to them? They are in the same boat, after all. Rocking the boat would do no one any good.

“But…”

“Don’t you ‘but’ me. If your brother could help, would things have turned out this way? Can ‘just one word’ make Matthew marry me?”

In fact, this was exactly what Kayla had in mind. She remembered that when she was young, many people would come to see the Wynters, asking for help.

When she asked her father why, he told her that the Wynters were superior and no one dared to oppose them.

That perception had been instilled in Kayla’s mind, and all these years, she thought that this was the absolute truth.

Moreover, Kayla had not encountered any setbacks or major challenges previously, so she only grew older but not wiser.

Kayla felt a little hesitant when she saw her daughter’s displeased face that was filled with disdain.

Reaching out, she hugged her and said in a low voice, “Shermaine, don’t be afraid. No matter what, I will definitely help you. After all, you are my only baby girl. If your Uncle Jacque is unwilling to help you, I will go to your grandma. Your grandfather had a lot of subordinates back then, and now they have become incredible figures. If your grandma helps to oppress the Tysons, they will have no choice but to agree.”

Shermaine was doubtful. “Mom, do you think it will work?”

“Why not? Tomorrow, I will visit your grandmother and ask her for help. If Matthew refuses, we could find someone to cause trouble for his company. Other than that, we can also make him lose his position. It would be a piece of cake for us, so don’t worry.”

Shermaine looked at her mother in surprise as she had thought that Mom was an innocent and incompetent woman who was overprotected by her grandfather.

It was totally unexpected that she could plan such strategies.

Shermaine herself had thought of these plans before, but she was not able to carry them out without help from the Wynters. Furthermore, these plans were easier said than done.

So, she was now in an awkward position.

In the evening, Kayla told James her plan. James had always loved his wife and children, so although he had nothing against the Tysons, he was fine with just threatening them a little.

Besides, the whole family needed to be in the Wynters’ good books.

Consequently, the Smallwood family visited the Wynters again the next day.
