You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 325

Clarissa was taken aback by those words. “What do you mean?”

I don’t remember having any conflict with anyone…

“Don’t worry,” comforted Yaala. “It’s all in the past now.”

“Huh? What’s going on? What happened?”

Yaala drifted off into a monologue. Turns out there was someone known as Old Codger in showbiz. It was said that he was a big shot in the industry and was even rumored that he used to be a part of the mafia. Even though he had supposedly turned over a new leaf, he still kept his domineering attitude. Everyone would shudder at the mention of his name. Paired up with the fact that he had a dark past, no one dared to defy him. Unfortunately, Old Codger was notorious for being a pervert. He would somehow always succeed in getting his hands on whichever women he had his eyes on, with or without their consent.

Then again, it was no surprise. Whoever caved would be compensated while those who refused were oppressed in everything they do. Rumors had it that many women in showbiz had fallen victim to him, with most of the victims swallowing their anger and hurt. Many more unnumbered women prayed every day to not become the next victim.

Once, when Yaala was attending a social event, someone approached her, knowing she was close with Clarissa.

The person revealed cautiously to Yaala that Clarissa had caught Old Codger’s eye. He had accidentally seen Clarissa with Yaala sharing a meal together and had been keeping a close watch on Clarissa since.

Old Codger had found out that Clarissa was @clarissa.quigley and was unbothered by the rumors about her and multiple men. After all, he would not give up on whoever had caught his fancy. His tyrannical attitude allowed him to get his hands on whoever he wanted no matter what.

Apparently, he had hired people to bring Yael to him. Fortunately, Yael was not intimidated by him and rejected his invitation to meet up without hesitation. He even tried approaching Yael through multiple means such as business meetings but was shot down by the latter every time.

That was the main reason why Clarissa had no clue about what was going on.

Nonetheless, Old Codger was adamant. He started spreading words saying that he would not rest until he got his hands on Clarissa. He promised anyone a handsome reward if they could bring Clarissa out to meet him.

“As you can see, that man is absolutely unscrupulous! How can someone think so mighty of himself is a mystery to me,” huffed Yaala.

It wasn’t until Old Codger had declared his intentions on getting Clarissa did Yaala caught wind of the news. Yaala had intended to warn Clarissa about Old Codger so that the woman could keep her guard up. However, never would Yaala have guessed that Clarissa would be one step ahead by publicizing her marriage certificate with Matthew.

The news of Clarissa being married definitely shocked Old Codger to his core.

“So I guess you don’t have to be too worried. Old Codger wouldn’t dare to challenge Mr. Tyson. Perhaps you can inform Mr. Tyson about this, and he might be able to help you resolve this issue,” Yaala concluded.

Clarissa broke out in cold sweat after finding out the truth.

A memory resurfaced in the back of her mind. She recalled receiving messages inviting her out, all of which from friends in the industry that she was not close with.

Does that mean they were planning on betraying me by handing me over to Old Codger in exchange for the rewards?

Clarissa shuddered at the thought. Never would she have ever expected someone could act so lawless in a society run by laws.
