You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 160

“Ellie! I was about to call you to come downstairs. Come, let me introduce you to some friends.”

Yuliana introduced the women to her daughter. “Young people like yourselves should have lots of things to talk about. Enjoy!”

Apparently, her mother had put her in charge of accompanying the guests.

Ellie reluctantly walked over to the group of young women and sat down with them.

As they sat together, the women never seemed to stop talking about Matthew.

Ellie, burying her annoyance, casually responded to their chat.

Eventually, she got tired of it and simply scrolled on her phone, ignoring them. Those women seemed to have noticed Ellie’s mood as well. They stopped interacting with her.

Some of the smarter ones went ahead to entertain Margaret, while others sought out Yuliana. They merely saw Ellie as their junior and believed Matthew’s niece was of no help to them.

In return, Ellie got the peace she wanted.

It was already getting dark outside, since the days were shorter in the winter. Nevertheless, the Tysons had their house brightly lit inside and out.

Sienna and Matthew made their entrance one after another. When Yuliana saw them, she quickly abandoned the other women. She was obviously more hospitable towards Sienna compared to the rest.

“Sienna, what a surprise to see you with Matthew! Did he pick you up himself?”

Yuliana’s comment had been suggestive on purpose.

Sienna responded quite generously. “We ran into each other at the gate, that’s all. Yuliana, I hope I’m not late.”

“No, of course you’re not. Come in, come in. Matthew, I’ll leave Sienna in your care. I have to tend to other guests.”

Yuliana shoved Sienna towards Matthew. Her attempt to set them up was too obvious.

The other women were not happy with what they saw. They knew about Sienna, being from the same circle after all and having met on several occasions. They never thought they would meet such a strong competitor here.

Ellie looked on apathetically. Sienna seemed to be much more cunning than Shermaine.

Sienna did not show a single trace of smugness just because she ‘seemed’ close to Matthew. Her expression, her smile, and her attitude remained casual and appropriate, and she did not let herself seem too intimate or too distant.

“Matt, happy birthday.”

Sienna presented her gift to Matthew, who did not even give it as much as a glimpse. He accepted the item and thanked her with little emotion.

“Thanks.”

The other women at the scene caught on. They hurried over to Matthew with their gifts and wished him a happy birthday.

Ellie chose this time to play the part of a generous host. “Come, ladies. I’ll be safeguarding your presents on my uncle’s behalf. You can leave them to me.”

She took all the gifts and then set them aside, providing Matthew some relief.
