You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 54
The corners of Matthew’s lips lifted slightly into a small smirk as he leaned on his bedframe again.
He did not call her back and thought of how the woman must be freaking out on the other end.
As expected, rissa grew frustrated after she ended the call.
It was not till the extent where she was in despair, but she still felt like someone had stabbed her heart
with a knife. She rolled in bed, unable to calm down no matter how hard she tried.
The main issue now is why didn’t Matthew call me back?
He mentioned earlier that he would continue to call if I hung up, and he wanted to see my face until he
falls asleep.
So why is he not calling me then?
Does he have so much to talk with that woman that he can’t be bothered to call me back?
Or, could they be…
rissa grabbed her hair and screamed in her head. You bastard, Matthew! Damn you!
Taking in a deep breath, she sat up from her bed with a cold re that was burning with anger.
Hmph!
Why do I care so much? I have nothing to do with him anyway.
rissa, you should not think about anything else. I only need to fall asleep now. One sheep, two
sheep…
Shey in bed, counting sheep, then, she started to hum a song after counting for a while. After a long
while, she thought of the outline of her new article, with various scenarios ying in her mind.
After ten minutes, she sprung up to a sitting position in bed while tugging on her hair like a madwoman.
At that moment, her phone rang.
When she answered the phone, she immediately mocked Matthew, “Oh? Isn’t it a bit fast for you to be
done with that prettydy at your door? What’s wrong? Are you physically incapable or too weak?”
The smile that was originally on the man’s face disappeared as soon as he heard her words.
“rissa, do you know that a price has to be paid for challenging a man’s physical abilities?”
Instantly, rissa regretted what she said on a whim.
Feeling guilty, she immediately apologised, “I’m sorry, that’s not what I meant. Whether or not you are
capable has nothing to do with me.”
After she said that, she realized that her words could be interpreted in another way.
Embarrassed, she turned to face elsewhere, wishing it could hide what she thought.
Obviously, it did not help.
rissa was too naive.
At that sight, Matthew smirked and narrowed his eyes.
“It’s only a matter of time that it will have something to do with you.”
Instantly, the woman’s face turned red.
Unsure of what to rebut, she stuttered, “N-No… it won’t”
“Hmm, let’s test it out then. Let’s see if you will have something to do with me in the end, and you can
see for yourself if I’m physically capable or not,” Matthew challenged.
rissa’s lips twitched in response.
“Also, you will be the only person who knows whether I am capable or not,” Matthew added.
“You… Must you keep talking about this? If you have nothing else to say, I am hanging up!” rissa
huffed.
Immediately, Matthew stated, “Oh, I do have something to say. You are jealous.”
“No, I’m not!” rissa denied it outright but it didn’t sound the least convincing.
Matthew’s eyes glinted, and he continued to stare at her without saying anything else like he was
already convinced that she was jealous.
On the other hand, his stare made rissa feel awkward.
Without a word, she hung up.
However, the moment she cut the call, he called again. Every time she ended the call, he would dial for
her number again.
Matthew did not n to stop pestering rissa that night.
In the end, she had to turn off her phone. Finally, peace.
While shey in bed, she had an angry expression on her face with her lips pursed together. Unlike
earlier where she had to count sheep, she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes this time.
In contrast, when Matthew closed his eyes, his mind was filled with images of the woman. In the end,
he dreamt of her that night, tempting him in various ways which drove him crazy.
Recently, rissa was having writer’s block and was struggling to express whatever she intended to.
She was working on an article about a workce. As the name suggests, it requires the writer to have
some experience in the workce. Unfortunately, she did not have it. Although she read books and
combed through documents about it, cross-checking the facts and asking various questions about it,
she stillcked personal experience.
When she told Ellie about it, thetter immediately mmed the table and hollered, “That’s easy! Just
go to an office and experience it yourself.”
“I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to do so. After all, I just wanted the experience, It’s not like I’m
doing it for the long term. I feel embarrassed to do that in someone’spany,” rissa whined.
Her best friend insisted, “That’s even more simple. I will help you get into Tyson Corporation. If you
can’t do anything there, you can always be an errand girl. Besides, don’t underestimate this role,
because you will be very well-informed about all the departments, second to only the cleaners. Within
the industry, they have a status too.”
rissa sighed. Based on Ellie’s description, that role is no different from a cleaner’s.
“So, I can get into Tyson Corporation that easily? Should I be a cleaner instead and mix around with
the people there first?” She cautiously asked.
“What are you afraid of? You have me.”
It did not take long before Ellie contacted people about it. Because Ellie was the one who
rmended rissa, and the fact that the role was just to run errands, the HR manager thought it
was alright. The process was efficient, and rissa was to report to thepany the next day.
Of course, Ellie used this matter to get rissa to be her guest model when her shop conducts live
broadcasts.
However, rissa had never done a live broadcast before. Although her readers andpany did
suggest her to do it, she always rejected them. Up till now, no one knew how she looked like.
That being said, she did not have to reveal her identity in Ellie’s live broadcast. She only had to model
for the clothes.
Since she decided to go to work the next day, rissa made some preparations and even bought a set
of professional wear. She thought that even if she did not do a good job, she would at least look the
part.
To her dismay, she realized that she was overdressed upon arriving at thepany. Her outfit looked
too professional and old-fashioned. In addition, she even wore ck-rimmed sses on purpose.
Anyone on the street would have assumed that she was a school principal.
Although her dressing was dull, it still did not hide her beauty.
As soon as she arrived at thepany, the male colleagues rushed to help her with her job.
Unfortunately, the kind gestures toward her only aroused jealousy from others.
“Hey, you there, get me a bento from this shop. After that, head to this store and get some desserts
and coffee. Oh yes, on the way, help me with this delivery…”
rissa continued to get more of such demanding requests. Whenever the male colleagues tried to
help her, the female colleagues would then put more burden on her. It was only her first day of work,
but she already experienced some unspoken rules in the workce.
Prettydies would get protected and bullied at the same time. Meanwhile, a rookie in a workce was
the most oppressed role there.
Unfortunately, being both the beauty and the rookie, rissa was being attacked from all sides. Within
a day, other than ordering food deliveries, bracing the sun to carry out errands outside, handling
documents, printing and running around the office, she was also framed and scolded by the manager. It
was a very eventful day.
As she was so busy, she did not have the opportunity to make friends other than the male colleagues
who were falling at her feet.
Of course, none of them was serious about her. She reckoned that it was because she was merely an
errand girl and had few opportunities to progress. The men these days were realistic. They would want
to marry a woman who would work for another twenty years and could share the burden of paying for a
mortgage with them. Therefore, they would not want someone like her, and she was only a target for
them to flirt with.
When night fell, she had dinner with Ellie where sheined about everything that happened,
together with her thoughts about them.
In response, Ellie chuckled, “This is the reality! Besides, thepetition in Tyson Corporation is fierce.
Everyone is the cream of the crop and has a set goal in life. Today, you only encountered a small group
of them. Most of the others would not have the time to y with you and would much rather use the
time to work and produce better results. Only by doing so will they get a better chance to move up the
ladder.”
“That’s true. It was only my first day there. I guess I’ll draw my conclusions once I’m settled in there.”
It was a long and busy day for rissa. Upon returning home, she wrote down all the information and
thoughts she gathered. Later, when she fell asleep, she dreamt of being scolded and working until she
was aching all over.
Having learned her lesson, rissa wore a smart casual outfit to work the next day. She was dressed
in a white blouse, jeans, and a pair of heels. Wearing her ck-rimmed sses, she was ready to face
the day.
When she arrived, she noticed that the atmosphere at work seemed tense.
rissa got acquainted with Mrs. Wace from the cleaning department on her first day of work. Taking
the opportunity while they were in the bathroom together, Mrs. Wace told her what happened.
“Lisa, who works in the marketing department, was reported for having a meal with the manager of the
rivalpany. Previously, there was a leak in sensitive information from thepany. Therefore, they
are suspecting that she is responsible for it. I heard that they are nning to call the police to report
her.In addition, a vice president on the ninth floor has a mistress. His wife found out and came to the
company, causing a ruckus. Now everyone knows about it. Currently, his wife is upstairs, so you might
want to stay away from her when you are there.
There is also Xander, who’s in the logistics department. He is about to marry the director from the
design department. I heard she came from a wealthy family. I was the first to find out about their
rtionship when I saw them in the parking lot making out…
”
Wow, she really knows everything!
rissa was impressed and seized the opportunity to ask for more gossip, forgetting her purpose of
coming here.
In the end, the two of them stayed in the bathroom chatting as more and more shocking news was
revealed.

“This person is the second generation of a wealthy family. However, he keeps a low profile. This other
person came in by connections. Oh, and this person bought a house recently. There’s also this other
guy who has a mistress. This one stole from…” Mrs. Wace droned on.
“By the way, Mrs. Zeller is the head of our cleaning department. Only she is allowed to clean the
president’s office.”
Matthew?
rissa smirked. “Did Mrs. Zeller say anything about the president’s special hobbies? Or, does she
know any secrets of his?”
“No… Our president is not close to any woman. After working here for so many years, the only woman
I’ve seen him interact with are those for work. Mrs. Zeller thinks that he is gay for sure.”
Hearing that, the corners of rissa’s mouth twitched. Well, I know for sure that this piece of news is
unreliable.
She chuckled lightly before she probed, “How is she so sure about that?”
“Well, since Mrs. Zeller thinks so, I don’t think she is wrong. No one in Tyson Corporation dares to
question her position. I will introduce you to her one day. She has many connections, so who knows,
maybe she could help you out someday. She might even be able to introduce a reliable man to you,
then you’ll be able to live the rest of your life as a rich housewife.”
“Haha… No thanks,” rissa awkwardly rejected.
