You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 29
rissa gradually lifted her head and was shocked to see Matthew.
She gasped and lowered her head, avoiding his eye contact.
At the same time, she also pushed Ryler away. “Thanks. I’m fine now.”
Ryler grinned. “What’s wrong? No one’s going to see us together.”
Ryler’s instinct told him that the man in the elevator was not someone who would not spread rumors
about him.
He looked at Matthew and thought he seemed familiar but could not recall who he was. Anyway, he
still greeted him with a nod.
Ryler had to drag rissa into the elevator as she refused to get in. She tried to hide between Ryler’s
arms as she could feel someone was staring at her with a murderous scowl.
The few seconds in the elevator felt like forever.
When the door opened, she mustered up her courage and ran out of the elevator. That took Ryler by
surprise, and he immediately ran out to catch up with her.
Donnie and Matthew, too, stepped out of the elevator.
“Shall we tell Ms. Quigley why we’re here?”
Donnie was worried that he might throw a fit. Matthew purposely made time for the press conference
but still was a tad toote.
The only reason Matthew was here was because of rissa. This was why Donnie was afraid Matthew
might explode with rage upon seeing how intimate she was with another man.
With a grim face and a cold voice, he said, “Let’s go.”
Meanwhile, Ryler brought rissa to his car. At first, he insisted on sending her to the hospital, but
upon knowing that there were paparazzi around, he had to part with her. Despite being crestfallen at
the turn of events, Ryler promised rissa that he would buy her dinner near the film studio.
On the other hand, rissa took a cab and went back home instead of the hospital.
She opened the door to her apartment, removed her shoes, and walked into her house, feeling utterly
worn out.
Someone was sitting quietly on the couch, but she did not notice.
When she tilted her head and saw a man sitting right there, she screamed at the top of her lungs.
She got the shock of her life after seeing Matthew with his deadpan expression.
Matthew did not say anything, but his eyes were zing with anger.
rissa clenched her chest and gasped, and her cheeks tinged with a sickly blush.
“You scared the crap out of me!”
She then copsed instantly on the couch and breathed heavily.
Instead of showing concern, Matthew said icily, “Why should you be scared? Unless you’re feeling
guilty?”
“Why should I feel guilty?” she mumbled while lying face down and refused to sit up.
“I think I’m going to…”
I think I’m going to pass out.
Before rissa could finish her sentence, she had rolled down from the couch and fallen on the floor.
Matthew thought she was putting up an act. “Get up now!”
She did not show any response. Matthew soon realized something was not right with her. He went
closer and found out she had fainted. Without hesitation, he carried her and ran out of the house.
rissa woke up and realized she was given a drip in a hospital.
While her head was still spinning, the man extended his arm and touched her forehead to check her
temperature.
“Hey.”
rissa looked at the man beside her.
The man, who looked a little disheveled, gently brushed his masculine hand against her cheeks. He
then retracted his hand and sat quite a distance away from her.
“Still in shock?”
He asked in a deeper voice.
rissa blinked. “What are you doing here?”
His lips curled into a smirk. “Have you lost your memory?”
rissa knitted her brows. “Oh.”
Matthew could no longer get mad at her upon seeing those little puppy eyes.
But he was still very much disturbed by the thought of her being intimate with another man.
“So you remembered. Tell me, what did you remember?” It was as if he was interrogating a suspect.
rissa was not dumb. She knew exactly what Matthew was doing.
But why should I exin myself to him, especially when he interrogates me as if I’m a criminal?
rissa looked into Matthew’s eyes and answered in a steady voice.
“I remember you trespassing someone’s property.”
Matthew instantly let out a mirthlessugh, but his expression turned grim right after.
He stood up all of a sudden, walked toward her, and pressed his hands against her bed.
“That house belongs to me, rissa.”
She was not surprised by that answer. “I know, and I’m thankful for your help. But since you’ve decided
to rent the unit to me, you cannot simply barge into the house anymore. How can I feel safe staying
here if you’re going to keep doing this without my permission?”
“So you’ve found yourself another man who can offer you a ce to stay?”
Wow.
A sudden frown warped rissa’s face, and her face turned pallid.
She had been drowsy the entire day and did not have the energy to argue with him anymore.
Instead of starting a fight with Matthew, she chose to remain silent, shut her eyes, and tilted her head to
the other side.
Upon seeing her reaction, a vortex of anger swirled inside him. He grabbed her by the chin and forced
her to look into his eyes.
“What do you want now? Money? A house? Or a car?”
“Get your hands off me!”
rissa pushed him away. The drip on the back of the hand fell off, and blood started dripping down
her hand. With heavy breathing, she roared, “Get out! Get out now!”
The tension between them escted. Matthew took a nce at the pool of blood on the floor and
walked out of the ward.
A nurse soon arrived and put her on a drip again. rissa just leaned quietly on the bed and did not
say anything.
From then on, Matthew had not appeared in the hospital anymore.
During this period, Ellie and Damon had visited rissa. They even apanied her and sent her
home.
Ellie stayed back to take care of rissa.
“I’m feeling much better now. You don’t need to worry about me anymore.”
Ellie made hery on her bed, stopped her from going anywhere, and did everything she could to make
her feel better.
“I’m going nowhere, and you’re going to stay in bed. Unless you want toe over to my ce?”
“Forget it then.”
rissa shook her head and grinned.
Suddenly, she recalled the remark Matthew made about the house.
He’d probably think I’m after something if I continue to stay in his house.
“I think I should move out.”
“To? Where else can you go?”
“I’ll be going over to the film studio in a couple of days. Once my work is done, I’ll return to my
hometown.”
“What?”
Ellie was shocked. “I thought you wanted to stay here for a longer period? You’ve only been here for a
month! No way I’m letting you go. After your trip to the film studio, you’re going toe back here. You
hear me?”
“Oh, Ellie.”
rissa shook her head and smiled wryly. “I thought I needed to stay here longer, but it seems my
work is almost done. I can always return home and work as usual. I want to go back and spend more
time with my Grandma.”
“But re…”
Ellie wrapped her hands around rissa.
rissa had made up her mind. “If you miss me, you can alwayse to visit. I can visit you as well!
Come, let’s start packing for my trip to the film studio. I’ve to get there as soon as possible, and once
I’m done, I should be able to vacate the house by this weekend.”
“How could you do this to me!” Ellie said in between sobs.
rissa smiled and gave her a big hug. “You know I love you the most, Miss Ellie!”
After Ellie had left, rissa went to the hospital to get another jab. She then returned home and started
packing as she nned to leave in the afternoon.
Instead of leaving on weekend, she booked a flight and left for the film studio tonight.
After boarding the airne, she texted Ellie and told her that the director needed her on-set, and she
had to leave early.
While everyone in the Tyson residence was busy chatting and ying chess, Ellie was on her phone
ying a game.
She suddenly received a message from rissa, and her expression turned grim.
The other family members went up to her after noticing the change on her face. “What’s wrong?”
Ellie sighed. “It’s re. She has left D City. She told me she would only leave this weekend, but now
she had to leave early for work.”
Matthew, who was ying chess with his father, squeezed a chess piece in his hand upon hearing that,
but his expression remained unchanged.
“Does that mean she won’ting back to D City after her work?”
“Yeah, she’ll be heading back to her hometown after that. Uncle Matt, you can take back the apartment
now.”
Matthew acted as if he was so focused on the game and ignored her, but deep in his heart, he was so
mad that he was about to break the chess piece.
Margaret smiled. “re is a great girl, and she knows what’s best for her. Not only she’s capable, but
she’s also talented. I would have made her stay if we have a suitable man for her in our family.”
She could not help but look at Matthew and asked, “By the way, how’s the girl you were with earlier? I
want you to know that her family background doesn’t bother me as long as she’s a decent woman.”
“Oh yes, how does she look like?” Ellie asked.
Matthew ignored them.
When Margaret wanted to pursue the matter, her husband warned her with an eye signal. She
eventually gave up and walked away.
rissa had arrived at the film studio, but the mysterious female lead was still nowhere to be found as
the team was shooting a few scenes that did not involve her.
If what she heard was true, the female lead for this series should be Shermaine Smallwood. Despite
her young age, this aplished film star had won multiple national and international awards and was
well-loved by the people.
It would make sense for her not to be here yet as she still had not returned to the country.

rissa could not believe that an award-winning film star was willing to take part in this project.
Nevertheless, a rumor would remain a rumor unless she saw Sharmaine here with her own eyes.
A few dayster, Shermaine finally arrived. Everyone, including rissa, was thrilled to meet her for
the first time. Yet, her arrival at the film studio had caused amotion when she was seen with a
mysterious man at the airport.
Shermaine’s rtionship had always made headlines. Though she often told the media she was in love
with someone, nobody knew who the person was. Rumors had it that the man whom she was dating
came from a prominent family in D City. This was why the media was afraid to spill the tea.
This time, people might have caught a glimpse of the man at the airport, but they still could not tell who
he was.
Upon seeing the man’s silhouette from a distance, the curious rissa had a sinking feeling in her
heart.
