You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 12


    rissa was taken aback.


    Seriously? He wants toe to my housete at night? Something seems strange.


    Even if he’s an elder I should respect, we aren’t close enough for me to invite him to my house, right?


    “Uncle Matthew, I’ve just moved in today. The house is messy. Why don’t…”


    As rissa trailed off, trying to make up an excuse, the smile on Matthew’s lips disappeared.


    “Okay. You can go now. Let’s go!”


    As the window rolled up, rissa watched the car drove off into the night.


    When the vehicle disappeared from sight, she patted her chest and entered the building.


    Was he upset because I refused to invite him into my house?


    Should I invite him another time?


    After all, I got to live here thanks to him. Hmm, I should extend an invitation next time.


    rissa made up her mind. I should prepare some nice snacks for Uncle Matthew, too.


    When the investor rissa met previously, Wilfred Knight, asked to meet her again, she was caught by


    surprise.


    Of course, she didn’t reject his invitation as it would be a bad idea to offend an investor. She called her


    chief editor, Jane, and asked thetter to join her.


    Jane agreed without hesitation. But when rissa arrived at the restaurant, Jane was nowhere to be


    seen.


    Wilfred was a middle-aged man. He wasn’t that good-looking, but he seemed like a kind man.


    “rissa, Jane told me something held her up. She won’t be here.”


    Immediately, rissa was on guard.


    Wilfred saw through her difort and shed a smile.


    “rissa, don’t be afraid. I’m interested in you, but I won’t force you to do anything. Let’s start by being


    friends, alright?”


    rissa gave a half-smile as he added, “It’s just dinner. I have some opinions regarding the script. Can


    you hear them out?”


    “Sure, Mr. Knight. Go ahead.”


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    rissa’s reply was polite but firm.


    Wilfred was tickled by her reply. However, he prided himself on being a patient man.


    This youngdy is pretty and talented. She is capable of earning an ie, so there’s nothing I can


    tempt her with. It must be hard to gain her. I need to be patient.


    During dinner, Wilfred gave her some valuable opinions that were of great help to her. She was startled


    but epted his suggestions humbly.


    Slowly, rissa let her guard down.


    After dinner, Wilfred offered to give her a ride home. rissa rejected him politely as they stepped out.


    “Mr. Tyson?”


    Suddenly, Wilfred’s bewildered voice rang out. Stunned, rissa spun on her heels and saw Matthew.


    He wasn’t alone today. There was a gorgeousdy by his side.


    Matthew inclined his head. He was d in a ck suit, which made him both regal and overwhelming.


    Wilfred’s expression showed he was in awe of this big shot.


    Deep down, rissa was scoffing. When the man’s icy gaze swept across her, she wondered if she


    should greet him when Wilfred spoke.


    “Mr. Tyson, this is rissa, my girlfriend.”


    “Eh?” rissa blurted out. “No, I’m not—”


    “Well, I’m still wooing her.”


    rissa was rendered speechless by Wilfred’s words.


    Meanwhile, Matthew was ncing at her as he lifted his eyebrows. Strangely, she felt a shiver running


    down her spine.


    Nevertheless, he strode past them without a word. His female partner scurried after him.


    Wilfred hurriedly caught up to them, leaving rissa alone.


    rissa took the opportunity to leave.


    She thought she’d never meet Matthew again.


    rissa holed up at home for a few days to edit her script. This day, she had just ordered delivery food


    when Matthew’s call arrived.


    It was an unknown number, so rissa was cautious enough to ask who it was.


    “It’s me. Come to XX Restaurant now.”


    He cut the line promptly.


    It took rissa a while to realize it was Matthew. No one else would order her that way.


    She dithered for some time before changing her clothes and went to the restaurant.


    It was the same restaurant and private room as before. Besides Matthew, another young man was


    present.


    rissa started cursing silently. A faint smile yed across her lips as she took her seat.


    Matthew nced at her briefly before he started the introduction.


    “Hank Pickell, sales manager at Tyson Corporation. This is rissa Quigley.”


    “Hello, Mr. Pickell.”


    “Hello, Ms. Quigley.”


    After greeting each other awkwardly, a heavy silence hung in the air. Hank btedly realized what his


    boss wanted of him, but he wasn’t sure.


    Hence, he paid full attention to Matthew.


    Dinner was an awkward affair. In the end, Hank left without asking for rissa’s contact number.


    To be honest, rissa was frustrated.


    I had no intention of being introduced to men through blind dates, but Matthew insisted on doing so


    without gaining my approval. Fine, he could do so. But why was he present the whole time?


    What does he want?
