You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Shermaine was aware that her movie wasn’t doing very well. In contrast, the box office for Clarissa’s movie was skyrocketing, causing her to be filled with frustration.

Her original intention was to infuriate Clarissa. Before her movie was screened, the media was already placing both movies in comparison. With Shermaine’s help, they managed to dig out details of their messy relationship from the past.

Feeling desperate, Shermaine tried all ways to garner the public’s attention. The content no longer mattered.

Since she couldn’t get Gary to kill Clarissa’s baby, she figured she could cause a miscarriage by angering her instead.

Although it wasn’t a realistic idea, Shermaine didn’t care. All she wanted to do was mess with Clarissa.

Unfortunately, Clarissa didn’t respond at all. It felt as if she didn’t care about whatever Shermaine did.

Consequently, Shermaine felt that her plan had backfired and she was the one who ended up enraged.

When the movie’s box office receipts kept increasing, and the pregnant Clarissa was spotted at the cinema with an attentive Matthew, Shermaine’s fury intensified further.

In front of others, Shermaine still kept up her humble façade. But in private, she was already filled with jealous rage.

“Ms. Smallwood, the box office receipts for Clarissa & Matthew has exceeded two hundred million. Also, these are the latest reviews…”

When the assistant saw Shermaine’s gloomy expression, she didn’t dare say much as she handed the documents to Shermaine.

Despite the fact that Shermaine was cordial to everyone including her, the assistant could feel the darkness in Shermaine when she wasn’t smiling. Even when she did, the assistant could feel that it wasn’t sincere.

When she brought up her thoughts with her other colleagues, they felt that she was just imagining things.

Nevertheless, she never did dare make eye contact with Shermaine or even stay a second longer with her.

When the assistant turned to leave, Shermaine called out to her, “Wait a moment.”

The assistant trembled for a second before turning around to be greeted with a smile from Shermaine.

“I’m sorry. I’m not in a good mood today. Did I scare you?”

“No, Ms. Smallwood.”

“I’m sure you’re aware that our movie has made a loss. So, I can barely smile.”

Smiling wryly, the assistant was stumped as she didn’t know what to say.

“Alright now, off you go.”

Only then did the assistant heave a sigh of relief and quickly left the office.

Looking out her window, Shermaine couldn’t help but laugh when she saw her assistant looking on edge despite having returned to her seat.

The next day, when Shermaine came into the office, the assistant had gone back to her hometown for something urgent.
