You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 85


    On Saturday night, rissa went over to the Garretts for dinner.


    Hry had everything prepared for her arrival. Even Yvonne stayed home that night. Not that her


    attitude towards rissa was any friendly, though.


    rissa brought them some gifts, and they exchanged some pleasantries out of courtesy before sitting


    down at the dinner table.


    “So, where have you been workingtely, ry? Do you need any help with work? Maybe I could get


    you an easier job at mypany instead?”


    “That won’t be necessary, Zach. I have a job.”


    “At Tyson Corporation?”


    rissa shook her head. “No, I’m just writing a book at the moment.”


    “I see… Well, I’d say that job suits your quiet personality very well!”


    Yvonne let out a sneer right after hearing that.


    “That sounds nice and all, but does it earn you enough to make a living?”


    rissa ignored her and took a sip of her tea before turning towards Hry. “Mom, when’s Jonathan


    coming home?”


    “Next month. He’ll be staying here for a while before heading back overseas.”


    “Got it.”


    If there was anything Yvonne hated the most in life, it was being ignored, especially by someone like


    rissa.


    “What the hell, rissa? Did you not hear what I said?” She raised her voice as she questioned her.


    Zach shot his daughter a fierce re to remind her they had invited rissa over to repair their


    rtionship, not ruin it further.


    Having been warned by her father, Yvonne let out an angry snort and kept quiet.


    Zach then motioned at Hry to ask her the question.


    “By the way, ry, do you have a boyfriend? Don’t get me wrong, though. Zach and I are only asking


    you this because we care about you,” Hry asked with a smile.


    rissa nodded. “I understand, but I don’t have one at the moment.”


    I’m not about to tell them about Matthew!


    “You don’t? Then what about the guy from… Actually, never mind.”


    “Heh… You mean you’ve been dumped is more like it!”


    “Hey! Watch your mouth, Yvonne!”


    As if she had suddenly remembered something, Yvonne broke into a friendly smile as she continued,


    “Well, if you don’t have a boyfriend… how about I introduce you to some guys, then? Since you’re


    nning on settling down here in D City, you should spend some time expanding your connections in


    the entertainment industry. While I can’t guarantee you’ll find yourself an amazing guy, you’ll at least be


    able to marry someone rich! What do you think?”


    “Your sister is right, ry. She can help get you familiarized with the social circles in D City, and that’ll


    benefit you greatly in the future!” Zach said with a smile.


    rissa was about to protest, but held her tongue when she felt Hry squeeze her hand under the


    table.


    After a brief pause, she nodded. “Alright, I will… Thanks.”


    “Oh, by the way, Yvonne said you attended a banquet some time ago. Are you acquainted with Ms.


    Tyson?” Zach asked.


    rissa tensed up upon hearing that. “Yes, we were ssmates.”


    “That’s great! It’s always good to have more friends! Perhaps you could bring Yvonne along the next


    time you meet up with Ms. Tyson? Young people of your age should socialize more, after all!”


    rissa chuckled to herself. Of course… I shouldn’t be surprised that they’d set their sights on Ellie


    too…


    “As you know, the Tysons are no ordinary family. This ssmate of mine is a very proud and arrogant


    person, and even I have to be really careful with how I carry myself around her. Besides, I don’t really


    contact her that often, so… Well, you get what I mean.”


    Naturally, Yvonne was the most displeased by her rejection.


    “Hmph! I think you’re full of crap! There’s no way Ms. Tyson would ever see you as a friend!”


    “Now, now, Yvonne… I think we should let ry spend some time alone with her mother.”


    Zach then led Yvonne out of there while Hry brought rissa into her room to have a private


    conversation.


    “You understand what they mean, don’t you, ry?”


    rissa shed her a sarcastic smile in response. “I’m sure you do as well, so why would you make


    mee see them? Yvonne looks down on me, and Zach only wants to use me! How could I possibly


    treat such people as family, Mom? In fact, why’d you even bother persuading me intoing tonight


    when you already know my stance on this?”


    Hry thought about it for a moment and nodded. “Well, I just want you to know that I’m still on your


    side, ry. Jonathan and I can only truly count on you. If you really are on good terms with Ms. Tyson,


    I want you to do what you can to keep it that way and just forget about Yvonne, okay?”


    “Okay.”


    “Right… By the way, I know I’ve told you this countless times, but you really have to focus on finding


    yourself a good man.”


    rissa didn’t even bother arguing as they would always think they know what was best for her.


    After spending a long and boring night with people she hated, rissa was missing Matthew. She


    called him the moment she stepped out of the house.


    Matthew was having a chat with his father and brother at Tyson residence at the time.


    Matthias shifted his gaze towards Matthew when his phone rang. But it didn’t seem to bother him as he


    simply stepped aside and answered the call, only to have his eardrums assaulted by rissa’s


    passionate and energetic voice.


    “Hi, Uncle Matthew! Have you eaten? If yes, what did you eat? Are you at home right now? How was


    your day?”


    She bombarded him with many questions, but left out the most important one of all.


    “Aren’t you forgetting something?” Matthew asked with a smirk.


    rissa pouted, her cheeks burning bright red as she figured out what he meant.


    However, Matthew cut her off before she could say it. “Did you miss me?”


    rissa let out a shy giggle.


    “Yup! I sure did!” she said after a brief pause.


    “Hehe…” Matthew chuckled gleefully.


    “You… What are youughing at? Stopughing! Hmph… A-Anyway, I’m on my way home now!”


    rissa shouted in embarrassment.


    “On your way home? Are you in a cab right now?”


    “Yup!”


    “Okay, I want you to turn on your camera and stay on the call.”


    “No way! It’ll use up my entire quota for the month if I did! Mobile data doesn’te cheap, you know?


    We’ll just talk on the phone like this!”


    Matthew pursed his lips in confusion. What quota? What mobile data? What on earth is she on about?


    When she heard no response from him, rissa assumed he was mad at her again.


    Ugh… This guy doesn’t take no for an answer, does he…


    “Isn’t it better to just talk like this? Aren’t you afraid of your family members seeing me?”


    “Nope!”


    “Well, I am. We’ve only just started dating, so I don’t want them shoving money in my face to leave you!


    Okay, I’ll admit, I was kind of looking forward to such an experience though. Hehe…”


    “How much do you want?”


    “You… Are you seriously paying me to break up with you?”


    Matthew went silent, and rissa knew she must’ve angered him.


    “U-Uncle Matthew? I-I was just kidding! Hehe… Come on, don’t be mad! You know I would never leave


    you even if you paid me to!”


    rissa didn’t dare say any further for fear of making a mistake and end up angering him even more.


    Matthew’s tone grew cold as he let out a sinister chuckle. “You know, rissa… If we really were to


    break up, you wouldn’t get a single cent out of it!”


    “Oh, my god, Matthew! You can’t seriously be that cheap! Shouldn’t you at least offer me some form of


    compensation for breaking up?”


    Isn’t that how they do it in the movies? Rich and powerful men like him would toss a check in your face


    and tell you to get lost or something, right?


    “Compensation? Ha, dream on!”


    rissa pouted at him. “How stingy!”


    “You said it yourself, re. I’m a petty person. You should be more worried about what would happen


    to you if we were to break up.”


    rissa felt a shiver down her spine when she heard that.


    Is it just me, or did that actually sound dangerous and terrifying?


    “Uh… How about we change the topic? Did you know that I’m no longer working in Tyson


    Corporation?” she asked with a nervous chuckle.


    “You want to go back?”


    Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    “No, I just thought I’d let you know, that’s all.”


    “Are you implying that you’re going back to Zen Hignds, then?”


    “Not at all. Why?”


    “Are you sure?”


    “Absolutely!”


    Matthew let out a smile when he heard that.


    rissa felt relieved when she saw her residential areae into view. “A-Anyway, I’ve just arrived at


    my apartment! I’ll talk to youter.”


    “No, I’ll head over right away.”


    “But you’re having a family reunion, right? I don’t think it’s a good idea to just leave like that… Also, it’s


    reallyte now.”


    “Yes, I know it’s reallyte. That’s what makes it perfect.”


    rissa blushed. “I… I don’t know what you’re talking about! Bye!”


    With a gleeful smile on his face, Matthew put his phone back into his pocket and left the house after


    excusing himself.


    After taking a shower, rissa waszing about on the sofa andughing away at aedy show on


    her tablet.


    Suddenly, she heard the door opened and jumped to her feet, only to see Matthew letting himself into


    the house.


    Her face burned bright red instantly as she was only wearing a spaghetti strap tank top and shorts.


    Oh, sh*t! I didn’t think he’d actuallye! This is bad… He’s probably going to think I put this on for


    him or something!
