You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

With a surly face, Hilary went home. As soon as she sat down, Yvonne stepped out of her bedroom and bawled her out rudely.

“Why are you sitting here like a corpse? What’s with that long face? The Garretts feed you and gave you money, you ungrateful piece of junk! Why are you looking at me like that? Cook something for me now!”

However, Hilary didn’t have the nerve to retort her.

“But it’s only three in the afternoon now. Are you hungry already?” she asked timidly.

“I said I’m hungry. How dare you question me! Hurry up, I want to eat now! Don’t you ask for others’ help. You have to do it yourself. I want a cake, a steak, and homemade pasta…”

Anyone could tell that Yvonne was picking on Hilary, but none of the maids dared say a word.

Besides, that had been her standing in the family over the past few years. Every day, they despised and hurled insults at her. Sometimes, Zach even hit her when he was in a foul mood. Even so, she still stayed in this family.

The woman didn’t have the nerve to utter a word against them, nor did she have the guts to divorce Zach. Only then could she retain her title as Mrs. Garrett.

Having seen through her thoughts, the Garretts’ behavior worsened and they tortured her even more. Yet, she pulled through the hardship.

Watching Hilary head to the kitchen, Yvonne let out a snicker. She then took the woman’s bag beside her, rummaged through it, and poured everything out. There was nothing other than a few cosmetic products.

Tossing the bag aside, the woman lay on the couch and scrolled through her phone.

Yvonne had just returned from a shopping spree overseas a few days ago. She had been in a foul mood, thus venting her bitterness on Hilary. If it wasn’t for this woman, I would’ve been married.

Back then, Yvonne resented Clarissa. However, because of the latter’s relationship with Matthew, Mason was about to tie the knot with her. Much to her surprise, things took a drastic turn at Clarissa’s birthday party. The woman gloated over it when she heard that Clarissa left D City together with her family. Out of the blue, Mason decided to put the wedding on hold. After some time, he broke off their engagement.

Yvonne wailed and made a big fuss out of it but to no avail. Half a year later, she finally gave up and put all the blame on Hilary.

Due to Clarissa and Matthew’s breakup, Zach took his rage out on Hilary, hitting and cursing her.

Up till now, Yvonne couldn’t figure out why Hilary supported her daughter’s decision to leave Matthew. When the latter said that Clarissa did it because Matthew was out of her league, she never believed a word. As a vain and materialistic woman, she must have done it with an ulterior motive, but they couldn’t put their finger on it.

She continued to endure the maltreatment without a whimper, refusing to get a divorce, while Yvonne had gotten accustomed to torturing her whenever they met.

Scrolling down the screen, she suddenly saw a post about @clarissa.quigley. It had been a long while since she checked out this social media account. Never had she thought that Clarissa would be back in D City. Sitting up, Yvonne read every post, from the time she showed up at a charity auction to the scandals. Her frequent appearances seemed to have caused quite a stir in showbiz.
