You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Unexpectedly, they met with the police again even though they did not want to.

However, the case had to be handled no matter what.

“The truck driver is still in custody, and preliminary findings indicated that he was drunk driving,” said the policeman.

“Drunk driving?” Matthew asked with a piercing look in his eyes. “With the strict law enforcement in D City, who would dare to drive under the influence at night? How old is the driver? Does he have any criminal records? How on earth did he crash into Dylan’s car?”

Since this policeman was somewhat acquainted with Matthew, he replied frankly, “Mr. Tyson, are you suspecting foul intent from the truck driver?”

Matthew twitched his fingers as he felt the sudden urge to smoke, but smoking was prohibited in the hospital.

Moreover, he rarely smoked in front of Clarissa.

Baffled by his speculation, Clarissa asked, “Are you saying the truck driver deliberately caused the accident? Was he trying to attack you or me?”

The answer was obvious. Anyone who wanted to ambush Matthew would have investigated his whereabouts beforehand.

The car was clearly meant for Clarissa that night.

Her face turned pale instantly as she was hit by the realization. “The last time I went to Ellie’s studio, I was almost hit by a falling vase. Could that have been a deliberate act as well?” she questioned.

Matthew’s gaze suddenly turned cold as he was not aware of that incident.

His suspicions would have cropped up sooner if he had known about this earlier.

He then asked a more pressing question, “When your employee Mandy was attacked that day, she was wearing your jacket, wasn’t she?”

Everyone was stunned by his revelation, and the policemen were immediately able to connect the dots together.

“Ms. Channing mentioned before that they said she wasn’t pretty enough. Perhaps they think Ms. Quigley is the prettier one?” one of the policemen commented.

Clarissa clenched Matthew’s hand firmly while her entire body turned cold. She trembled with fear as she felt terror creeping up from the soles of her feet.

If all these moves are really targeted at me, that means they are planning to kill me!

She didn’t dare to think any further, and Matthew immediately held her in his arms to comfort her.

“Clare, there’s nothing to be scared of. I’m here, alright?” He lowered his head to kiss her on the forehead.

The policemen decided to make a move so they could further investigate the matter. Mere speculation was not enough to prove that those actions were targeted at Clarissa.
