You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa stayed in Matthew’s office for quite a while. By the time Matthew threw himself into work, Damian was still fast asleep.

Feeling rather bored, she decided to head downstairs to her studio instead of lingering around Matthew although the latter would appreciate her presence very much.

The elevator that she took stopped on one of the floors and Avery walked in. Clarissa put on a blank face and ignored her.

I can’t stop her from behaving the way she wants, but I can choose to let it go.

Though I pretend to get jealous in front of Matthew sometimes, I can’t deny the fact that there will always be various women surrounding him, including some very outstanding individuals.

From his former schoolmates to the group of talented staff that he has, and the long list of socialites in his circle, Avery is nothing compared to them.

Although Matthew was married, it was almost impossible to stop those women with ulterior motives from getting near him because he was such a great guy. Hence, Clarissa could only be vigilant about it and tried to be on her toes all the time. In the end, the success of their marriage would depend on the man’s character and integrity.

If Matthew wanted to cheat on Clarissa, she would not be able to find out.

Therefore, she was not bothered about Avery’s existence.

Meanwhile, Avery’s expression darkened at the sight of Clarissa. She felt so uncomfortable being around the latter.

I guess she must be scheming something. She’s probably better at this than Helen.

Clarissa did not even take a glance at Avery. Her eyes were glued to her phone, waiting for the elevator to go down.

Ring!

Clarissa lifted her head and strode out of the elevator.

Right then, Avery called out to her, “Ms. Quigley.”

Clarissa turned around, only to find Avery holding her bag tightly, her pale fingernails dug deep into the strap.

How strong is her grip?

Remaining emotionless, she asked, “What is it, Ms. Alston?”

“Ms. Quigley, I… I don’t have any ill intentions. Like all the majority of the women who have a crush on the president, I’ll only admire him from afar.”

Clarissa did not respond to her, neither did she show her any expression.

“Ms. Quigley, I think you can understand where I’m coming from. I’m not asking for anything. I was employed because of my capabilities and strengths. I didn’t rely on despicable means to attain any career opportunities.”

Clarissa remained silent.
