You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

What a good girl.

Matthew felt instantly at ease upon seeing how adorable Clarissa was.

A corner of his mouth quirked up, and he carried her to the bedroom upstairs.

After putting her on the bed and placing a thin blanket over her body, he sat by the bed and looked at her big sparkly eyes.

Clarissa reached out her hand and grabbed his wrist. “Why are you home? Don’t you need to be at the hospital? How’s she?”

She might have made it clear that she would not care about the Tysons anymore during the day, but she still seemed to be worried about Margaret.

Matthew chuckled in silence and touched her cheeks. He then leaned forward and gave her forehead a kiss.

“Don’t worry, she’s fine. She was just a little mad at us.”

Okay…

Clarissa felt bad but did not know what to say after that.

Matthew looked at her awkward face and poke her knitted brows with his index finger. “Don’t worry about it. She has a bad temper, and it isn’t her first time throwing a fit like this at me. She’ll be fine.”

“But…”

“That’s how she’s like. We can’t do much about it,” Matthew said, ”She has been a domineering figure for ages since Dad doesn’t care much about things that happened in the family. That’s why she could not take it when someone challenges her authority.”

He continued, “And I want you to know that no one can stop me from marrying you.”

Clare was relieved to hear that. She locked her fingers with his and smiled. “It’s too late for you to push me away, anyway.”

Matthew responded with a grin. “I know, and I don’t even have the guts to do that too.”

Clarissa’s lips curled into a smile upon hearing that.

The next morning, Clarissa tried to get an update about Margaret’s health.

Yet, Ellie convinced her Margaret was fine. “Don’t worry, she’s fine. She’s just being dramatic. I mean, yes, she’s unwell, but nothing critical. It has nothing to do with you, okay?”

Ellie continued, “Just enjoy your time with Uncle Matt. They might need some time to accept you, but trust me, you’ll see the light at the end of the tunnel soon.”

Clarissa knew Ellie only said that to console her. “I know you’re trying to make me feel better. I’m actually all right.Anyway, I’m glad to hear that Old Mrs. Tyson is getting better now.

”

Clarissa also believed that the family would eventually accept her, but she also knew it would not be easy.
