You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Indeed, Clarissa rarely gets mad.

Back then, she had gone through so many hardships that nothing would upset her anymore.

Growing up, she had seen many people arguing over various matters. Some even ended up hitting each other. Whenever she saw something like that, she’d think it wasn’t necessary to act that way. Couldn’t they mull over it and calm down?

But when it was her turn to experience something similar, she realized a bystander would always be clear-minded.

Clarissa couldn’t even control herself.

She flew into a fit of rage and seethed with jealousy in an irrational manner.

Of course, Clarissa knew she should trust Matthew as he wouldn’t cheat on her. Yet, she couldn’t control her emotions. All she wanted to do was to yell at Matthew or beat every woman who lusted after Matthew to a pulp.

In reality, she couldn’t do so.

The most she could do was to make a subtle jab at Sienna, like what she did earlier out of impulse.

After arriving at the karaoke, they booked a private lounge. Clarissa sang her heart out while Ellie sat beside her helplessly. The former was singing absent-mindedly, her attention elsewhere. In the end, she started singing tunelessly. She’d stop singing suddenly and resumed after remembering the lyrics.

Ellie dared not stop her and hurriedly sent Matthew a text so he’d bring her home.

When Matthew arrived, he stepped into the room without a sound. Ellie pointed at Clarissa, who had her back against them. She scurried over to him and explained softly about the necktie and them bumping into Sienna earlier. Then, she exited the room swiftly.

Matthew and Clarissa were left alone in the room. The latter had no idea about it.

Suddenly, someone hugged her from behind. Clarissa immediately struggled to free herself. She knew who it was, but that knowledge didn’t stop her from trying to break free from his grasp.

Matthew tightened his grip until she finally stopped struggling. As the noisy music played on, he inched nearer to her and whispered in his deep voice. “Clare, are you mad?”

As Clarissa said nothing, he knew she was upset.

Matthew’s lips curved up in a smirk. He went to the monitor and switched it off. Silence filled the room immediately.

He returned to her and bent down to meet her gaze.

The young woman was scowling unhappily. Even if the private lounge they were in was dark, he could sense her suppressed fury.

Sighing, he parted his lips to say something when someone wailed next door.

“Let’s kill this love! Rum, pum, pum, pum, pum, pum, pum…”

Matthew’s lips twitched in annoyance.

Clarissa nearly burst out laughing because the person next door was singing horribly out of tune.

Soon, someone yelled out. “Stop singing! You’re killing me! Please just stop!”
