You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 1
Ssh!
He sshed rissa’s feverish body with cold water, waking her up from a moment of stupor.
She looked up to see the man whom she hadtched on to standing right in front of her.
The man removed his coat and tossed it to the ground. Looking tall and handsome, he was dressed in
a white shirt and a pair of ck suit pants. He had chiseled features like those of a male model, and his
eyes especially looked astute and callous.
“Sober now?” His voice was extremely cold and stern.
“I’m sorry,” rissa said in embarrassment.
She had just gotten off the ne to visit her mother whom she hadn’t seen for years. Yet never in her
wildest dream did she expect her mother to drug and deliver her to the bed of a perverted old man.
Confused and delirious, she had grabbed hold of a stranger.
If not for this fine gentleman, she wouldn’t dare to imagine what would be of her now.
rissa huddled in the bathtub and lowered her head to hide the pain in her eyes, not realizing how
seductive she looked with her dress clinging damply to her skin.
Matthew squinted his eyes. Is she really not trying to seduce me?
“Mr. Tyson.” Donnie’s voice sounded at the bathroom door. “The doctor and the clothes are here.”
“Thank you,” rissa piped up as she lifted her head. “I’m so sorry for the trouble.”
There was no need for exnation because they were only strangers to each other. She had noticed
the man’s inquisitive and derisive gaze, reckoning that he would only misunderstand her for having an
ulterior motive if she were to exin herself.
A female doctor came in just as Matthew was about to leave the bathroom. She put the clothes aside
and gave rissa a jab before leaving shortly after.
Outside, the room was already empty by the time rissa had changed her clothes and trudged out of
the bathroom.
Hah, what was I thinking?
After a night of rest at the hotel, she was reluctant to go back to the Garretts’, but she had no other
choice as she needed to retrieve her belongings.
“You still have the audacity toe back?”
Her arrival immediately interrupted the peaceful atmosphere in the living room.
It was rissa’s stepsister, Yvonne, who had said that.
“I’m here to take my stuff.”
rissa walked past the living room, wanting to head back to her room, but Yvonne blocked her way
andnded a stinging p across her face.
Caught off guard, rissa jerked her head up in a rage.
“You ingrate! What do you think you’re doing? How dare you disappear on such an important asion
last night? We were trying to get you a boyfriend. Do you know who that man is? Do you know how
much trouble you have caused us? Do you know how humiliating it was for us just because you ran
away?” Yvonne let loose a torrent of abuse at rissa.
“If that man is so important, why didn’t you take him for yourself?” rissa retaliated, cupping her face.
I will never sleep with a balding and beefy old man in his fifties!
“Why you—”
“We’re family, Yvonne. Don’t get too worked up,” Zach interrupted before his daughter could fly off the
handle again.
Then putting on a calm look, he said to rissa, “We’re doing this for your own good, ry. Mr. Jensen
has a sizeable worth and he’s still single. Haven’t you heard that older men are wiser and they’re
much gentler towards women? You have nothing to worry about for the rest of your life if you’re married
into the Jensen family. Your mother has been saying we don’t take good care of you so we wanted to
make it up by finding you a good man.”
rissa darted Zach and the woman beside him, Hry—her biological mother—a cold look.
“I don’t need it,” she said, then returned to her room to retrieve her suitcase that was left untouched
since yesterday.
Upon her arrival in D City the day before, the Garetts had taken to a hotel for a meal after reuniting with
Hry. Yet little did she expect to be greeted by a filthy sight.
“I’m doing this for your own good, ry.” Hry hade into her room and was grabbing her by the
arm. “You can’t just stay in that small city and do nothing for the rest of your life, right? It’s a waste of
your good looks.”
rissa shook her hand off relentlessly. “Is this why you’ve abandoned me for twelve years?”
“I…”
rissa had already walked away before Hry could finish.
None of the Garretts stopped her.
“Don’t worry. We were indeed a little too reckless yesterday. I’m ry’s mother. That’s a fact. We need
to n and think wisely about this.” Hry tried to appease her husband and stepdaughter when she
saw the dissatisfaction on their faces.
“Are you sure?” Yvonne snorted. “She’s your daughter after all.”
“She may be my daughter, but I’m very much in love with your father, Yvonne. You know me, don’t you,
Zach?”
“Of course,” Zach smiled.
rissa had hailed for a cab, nning to stay at a hotel, when she received a call from her best friend,
Ellie.
“Why didn’t you tell me you’ve arrived in D City? Do you even consider me as your friend? Where are
you?”
rissa’s heart warmed at her words.
“I’m on my way to a hotel…”
“Hotel? You could have just stay at my ce.”
“I don’t think that’s nice. I…”
“I won’t take no for an answer. Head over to J City Building. I’ll pick you up and we can go grab a meal
together.”
rissa let out a helpless chuckle at Ellie’s domineering behavior. Hanging up the phone, she could
only tell the driver to take another route.
After she alighted from the cab, rissa waited under a shade beside J City Building.
She was ying with her phone when she looked up and saw the silhouette of a man in a white shirt
and a pair of suit pants. There was something about that man that made him look imposing as he
walked out of the building.

Followed by a crowd around him, rissa wondered what he was saying as the people sent him off
with a bow thereafter.
The driver opened the door, and the man was about to get in when he suddenly looked over in her
direction.
Taken aback, rissa quickly lowered her head in embarrassment and feigned ignorance.
Matthew looked at the youngdy through the car window until the car drove away and her figure
disappeared from sight.
“Donnie,” he piped up. “I need you to run a background check on that woman.”
Donnie naturally understood who he was referring to. What are the odds of meeting the same woman
who had thrown herself at Mr. Tyson twice?
They had never believed in pure coincidence and ident.
