You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 64


    “Yes, I am done.”


    rissa knew exactly what she just said herself. Also, she knew how difficult it would be for her to utter


    those words.


    That was why she reeled off everything in a breath and did not let Matthew interrupt her.


    However, it was toote to regret since things were already done.


    Certainly, she would not regret it anyway.


    “Sure!”


    Matthew finally answered in a deep voice.


    He then replied coldly, “Come and take your things tonight.”


    “I-I’ll do it tomor-”


    “No! Since you’re leaving, don’t waste my time.”


    He rang off instantly. Standing on the balcony, rissa felt rather hurt.


    He did not even give her a chance to exin.


    In fact, women were usually very melodramatic. Although she told herself that she would leave him for


    good no matter what, she still wished that he would make her stay.


    Since when have I be such a fake? rissa scoffed at herself silently.


    She pushed open the balcony door and came back in. Although she was trying to hide her emotion,


    Ellie still noticed her dejection.


    “re, what’s wrong?”


    She shook her head. “Nothing much. I had a disagreement with a colleague at work. It’s alright.”


    “Are you sure? Why are you hiding from me if you’re only talking to your colleague? Are you… seeing


    someone recently?”


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


    rissa chuckled, “That’s impossible! I mean, have you ever taken a good look at me? Besides, even


    if I am really dating someone, I wouldn’t hide it from you.”


    Thinking that she had a point, Ellie nodded.


    “That’s true. You don’t have the time anyway!”


    To change the topic, rissa hurriedly asked, “What was the good news again?”


    “Oh, yeah! Take a seat, ’cause you’re in for a treat. Haha! Just the thought of it makes me crack up…


    Didn’t I tell you that Shermaine came over to my ce today? When she stepped in, I was about to…”


    Then, Ellie told rissa about what happened that morning gleefully.


    “Haha… I told you it’s absurd! You should’ve seen the look on her face. Well, it’s her fault for gossiping


    around like some nasty b*tch. I knew Uncle Matt doesn’t like her at all! Hah! Serves her right…”


    “What do you think, re?”


    rissa did not know how to react after hearing what Ellie said.


    There were regrets, nheless. But what was done had been done, and she could do nothing to


    change it.


    After a while, she returned a faint smile. “Uncle Matt doesn’t like Shermaine for sure. But still, it does


    not mean that they are not getting married. Everyone in your family loves her! What more, both of your


    family had known each other for so long, so I can see a possibility in an arranged marriage.”


    “That’s impossible. Knowing Uncle Matt, no one can force him to do what he doesn’t want to.”


    “Even if it’s not Shermaine, someone else will still marry Uncle Matt. Isn’t that pretty much the same?”


    “It is, but I will be happy as long as it’s not Shermaine. Even all those women who had gone on blind


    dates with Uncle Matt were all better than her.”


    rissa shook her head and sighed.


    Matthew’s future wife certainly had to be a good match for him.


    “Hey, it’s a good day today, so why don’t we go shopping? We’ll meet them up for lunch and hang out


    later. C’mon.”


    Ellie did not think much about it and urged rissa.


    Moreover, rissa was not in a rush to take her things at Zen Hignds. Since she was going to do it


    later that night, she decided to hang out with Ellie before leaving.


    In less than two hours, rissa and Ellie’s hands were full of their purchases of the day, especially


    rissa – shepletely indulged herself and bought a series of apparel, essories, handbag, and


    makeup products. Ellie was rather surprised as she had rarely seen rissa act this way.


    When they found a ce to take a break, Ellie could not help asking, “re, what happened to you? I


    have never seen you shop so much in my entire life. Haven’t you always said that it was a waste of


    money?”


    “Oh, is that a lot?”


    rissa looked at the shopping bags andughed awkwardly.


    “I… Um, it was just an impulse.”


    “Impulse? Are you sure? You’re acting really strange today!”


    Ellie studied rissa’s expression carefully. She was trying to find out the reason behind her odd


    behavior.


    The corner of rissa’s lips twitched as her fingers raked through her hair uneasily.


    “Nothing much. I mean, it’s the time of the month. You’d certainly understand.”


    Is that so”?” Ellie asked while looking at her quizzically.


    “Yes. Why are you still doubting me?”


    Even after a few times of reassurance from rrisa, Ellie was still feeling skeptical.


    That night, they invited some people from Ellie’s workce. Meanwhile, Damon also brought a few of


    his friends along with him. More than ten of them gathered around as they had fun and ate. At that


    point, it was almost like a party.


    Even though it had been a long time since Damonst saw rissa, they acted like normal friends


    when they met each other.


    During dinner, everyone got excited and started drinking. rissa inevitably became their target as she


    was the prettiest girl around. Seeing this situation, Damon swooped in and saved the day by drinking


    whatever wasing her way. When the rest noticed Damon was so protective over her, they started


    cheering for them.


    Fortunately, Ellie stopped the crowd, and it helped rissa to feel less awkward. Although rissa


    was just a tad tipsy, her brain was still fogged up by the amount of alcohol she drank.


    Seeing that Ellie had stopped the fun, the crowd went towards the private room and continued there


    instead. After a while, rissa started to calm down. She was sitting in the corner with a beer in her


    hand, and beside her was Damon, who was watching the rest of the people singing.


    “re, is there someone you like?”


    rissa did not answer for a while. Just as Damon thought that she did not hear him, he suddenly


    heard a faint “Mm-hmm” from her. The voice was almost inaudible among the loud sound ofughter


    from the crowd.


    Nheless, Damon still heard it loud and clear.


    Smiling bitterly, he answered, “Well, he is a lucky man.”


    For a moment, rissa remained silent as she took a sip of the beer.


    Then, she muttered slowly, “Damon, you’ll find a better girl. She’ll like you, and you’ll like her back. That


    is the true meaning of happiness.”


    Damon was a rather carefree man, so he grinned and said, “I hope that is the case.”


    They clinked their sses and continued drinking in silence.


    No one noticed how much alcohol they had drunk together. When Ellie looked around, she found


    rissa leaning against the couch with a few empty beer bottles by her side. She was fast asleep with


    her head tilted upwards.


    Although Damon was not drunk just yet, he had drunk quite a lot too.


    “Damon, why did you make her drink?”


    Hearing that, Damon shook his head andughed. “Am I that type of person? re kept drinking, so I


    thought she is a good drinker.”


    “Hah! As if! As far as I know, she rarely drinks. Besides, no one forced her to drink tonight, so why did


    she drink so much? Why is she acting so weird today?”


    Ellie sat over and helped rissa up.


    “Did she tell you anything just now?”


    Damon’s eyes glimmered, but he denied instantly. “She wouldn’t even tell you, so how would I know?”


    “Well. Forget about it then. I will send her home now. re, re, wake up. Let’s go home…”


    In a daze, rissa opened her eyes, only to be greeted by a blurry figure. Since the lighting in the


    room was very dim, it took her a while to bring everything back into focus.


    “Oh, okay…”


    She did whatever Ellie told her to do. Being drunk had made her extraordinarily obedient.


    Yet, Damon was worried, so he sent them into their car. After that, he went back into the room again to


    drink. For some reason, he was in the mood to getpletely drunk that night.


    As for Ellie, she had used up all her energy to help rissa get into the elevator and back on her bed


    in the apartment.


    Just as rissa was ced on her bed, she sat up suddenly and darted towards the bathroom.


    “Ueghhhhh… Bluerghhhhh…” The sound of the aftermath echoed between those tiles.


    After she was done, she washed her face and walked out of the bathroom. Then, she sat at the side of


    her bed in a daze.


    Watching her series of actions, Ellie was thinking if rissa had regained consciousness.


    “re, are you sober now? Do you know who I am?”


    rissa smiled at her best friend. Even after all that, she still looked beautiful with her eyes shining


    bright.


    “I’m alright, Ellie.”


    Ellie breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that. “That’s good. You should take some rest.”


    “Alright, Ellie. Are you staying for the night? Or are you going home?”


    “I’ll be heading home as I have something to do tomorrow. Will you be alright alone?”


    “Yes!”


    Ellie did not think much and left rissa’s home.


    After Ellie left, rissa sat there nkly for quite some time. All of a sudden, she remembered


    something and got out of the house without changing her clothes.


    Fortunately, she could still remember to call for a cab through her cellphone. After she got in the car


    and told the driver the address, she remained silent while her eyes stared ahead nkly.


    It was only lucky for rissa to get a cab in the middle of the night. What more, it would be extremely


    dangerous for a beautiful woman like her to go out thiste at night. Upon reaching Zen Hignds


    safely, she rang the doorbell.


    On the other side of the door, Matthew had been waiting for her the entire night. As he saw her


    standing alone in front of the gate from the inte, he was infuriated.


    He drove to the entrance furiously. When he saw her standing in a daze at the front gate, he wanted to


    yell at her.


    “Get in!” Matthew shouted towards rissa.


    He was trying to control his anger as hemanded in a deep voice.


    rissa opened the car door obediently. The moment she got in, the car elerated immediately, and


    her body shivered as she leaned against the car seat.


    Matthew still ignored her when they had arrived at his house. Meanwhile, rissa followed behind him


    slowly as he entered.


    Once they got in, rissa rushed into the room she stayed in and packed her things quietly. When she


    headed out of the room, Matthew was sitting on the couch while ncing in her direction coldly.


    Her wet hair was strewn across her shoulders, and her face seemed rather pale without any emotions.


    Some parts of her clothes were soaked too. At that moment, Matthew noticed that there was a faint


    scent of cigarettes on her and a noticeable smell of alcohol on her breath.


    He frowned and slightly twisted his fingers.


    Seeing that the woman was about to leave, he then called out to her.


    “rissa, stop right there!”


    rissa stopped abruptly. She turned around as she heard his stern voice and gazed at Matthew.
