You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa had long expected that her mother would find out about her relationship with Matthew, but she did not expect it to be so soon.

Currently, she was on the phone with Hilary, listening to her mother showering her with praise.

“Clary, I know that you’re a good daughter. From the moment you’re born, I know that you’re definitely a unique girl with a bright future. No wonder you rejected the men I introduced to you; you’ve found a better man by yourself! My dear daughter, you’ve got a good eye for a man. A good man like Matthew is hard to find. Fortunately, you have befriended Ellie to get close to him. What a smart move! You are as smart as me.

“Clary, are you living with Matthew? Wait, you don’t have to tell me. I’d guessed as much. When I wanted to visit you previously, you didn’t allow me to go to your place. Have you been hiding it from me since that time? Well, it’s okay. I’m not angry. I understand that you still need some time before your relationship becomes stable.

“By the way, has Matthew told you when he’ll marry you? I’m saying this because he is not young anymore and you’ve moved in together with him. Clary, be smart and get pregnant soon. If you have a kid earlier, it’d be good for your health as you can recover faster after the delivery. Besides, it can also secure your relationship and your standing in the Tyson family, too.

“Clary, don’t be too stubborn. I know you can be quite stubborn at times. At the beginning of the relationship, he would be fine with your stubbornness. But as time goes on, he might find it unbearable. So, be gentle and listen to him. Remember to learn some tricks to make your relationship exciting and fresh. Since you’re still young, keep your body in good shape and win his heart. Alright?”

Meanwhile, Clarissa set the phone aside, put Hilary on speakerphone, and started reading a book without bothering to reply to her.

As Hilary continued to chatter away, she still did not get any response from Clarissa. “Clary, are you listening to me? Hello?”

“Yes, I am.” Clarrisa finally gave her a response, but she had grown impatient with her mother’s endless blabbering. “Are you done?”

Hilary sensed her annoyance and said cordially, “Okay. You don’t have to get annoyed. I’m saying these for your own good. Don’t worry, Mom won’t ruin your relationship. And I haven’t told anyone about this, not even Zach. I’ll only tell others when you’re ready to get married.”

Clarissa heaved a sigh. “Alright.”

“Don’t fret, Clary. Your mother is not a stupid person. I know that nothing is considered a victory until the moment you officially become Mrs. Tyson. I won’t be impulsive or do anything foolish while I wait for your good news.”

Clarissa was impressed with her mother’s words. ”Thanks, Mom.” Even though I know that she has her own motive, her support for me is much appreciated.

“Nah, you don’t have to thank me. We’re in the same boat. I would share your honor and disgrace.”

Share my honor and disgrace? I don’t think you would like to share my disgrace. But her support is all that matters.

After she hung up the call, Matthew quickly came over from the other side of the room. He was doing his work on the computer when Hilary called Clarissa, so he could not help but overhear their conversation.

However, Clarissa did not mind him knowing what Hilary had told her.

Looking thoughtfully at her, Matthew said, “Clare, you have to secure your relationship and your standing in the Tyson family.”

Clarissa rolled her eyes in response. “I’m not going to have an illegitimate child.” I will not have a child born out of wedlock.

He immediately suggested, “Let’s get married then.”

“No! It’s too soon.” The Tysons haven’t even accepted me as his girlfriend. I won’t marry him like this.
