You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

No one paid attention to Clarissa’s movie anymore.

The police still couldn’t determine whether Hilary’s death was a suicide or homicide. There were also a lot of wild speculations from the public.

Bystanders who did not know any better automatically sided with public opinion.

There were also some who undoubtedly took advantage of this crisis to say things that would ruin Clarissa’s reputation, all because they were jealous of her.

Before, they did not dare to say too much for fear of being targeted by Tyson Corporation’s lawyers.

But now, the uproar brought on by Hilary’s death couldn’t be suppressed at all. Netizens were behaving like a bunch of maniacs as they posted all kinds of comments.

Hence, those who already hated Clarissa joined in as well. Through their comments, they implied that Clarissa had forced her mother to her death. Just like that, Clarissa became the world’s most vicious woman and was verbally bashed by everyone.

The public was all over her, but she did not release a statement nor make a public appearance.

Despite that, Clarissa could imagine all the unpleasant and harsh words the people had to say about her. She had experienced it before anyway.

Since she was backed into a corner during this period of time, she used this as an opportunity to stay at home and keep her son company.

Not to mention, even Damian was implicated and couldn’t attend school for fear that reporters would dig up information on his school and end up affecting the other students.

Besides, Damian had been given quite a scare, so Clarissa patiently calmed him down over the past few days.

At Zen Highlands, Clarissa schooled him for an hour before making ravioli together. The boy was visibly happy as he learned how to roll the dough from his mother.

When Ellie called, Clarissa wiped her hands to answer her phone. Then, she used her free hand to draw some whiskers on her son’s cheeks with a little bit of flour. Looking at his adorable face, she let out a good-natured laugh.

Upon hearing Clarissa’s laughter, Ellie felt relieved because it meant that she was coping well with Hilary’s death. Only then did she inform, “I went to the police station to ask around. They said Hilary’s body hasn’t been autopsied yet because the Garretts won’t allow it. Zach rejected the autopsy on the basis that he’s still legally her husband. He’s convinced Hilary committed suicide and doesn’t want to pursue the matter. But it’s really weird, you know? Something’s definitely up with the Garretts. I just can’t put my finger on it. I tried to dig for more information from Shawn’s buddies, but they were tight-lipped.”

The Garretts were behaving strangely. There was no doubt that they were hiding something.

However, Clarissa preferred leaving it to the police as she did not want to know too much.

But Ellie would call to update her from time to time, so she also knew about what had happened over the past few days.

“Clare, do you think Zach and his family wanna make use of Hilary’s death for something? I have a feeling that whatever it is, it has something to do with you. So please be careful.”
