    You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 99


    rissa didn’t know that people loathed her stories.


    However, if it was Shermaine who didn’t like it, she wouldn’t mind.


    These few days, rissa had received a lot of calls from Helen, inviting her for hangouts, from having


    fun together to shopping, but she rejected every one of them.


    Thest time Helen called rissa, she told thetter she was going to invite Ellie as well, seeing how


    close they were. Thetter got nervous as she couldn’t guess if Helen was trying to threaten her.


    Even if it posed to be a threat, rissa had no choice but to ept her invitation, and of course, she


    would be the only one who would be there while Matthew would stay out of that.


    That night, Matthew had some business to attend to, so he didn’t return home for dinner.


    rissa informed Matthew about epting Helen’s invitation, but thetter onlyughed at her. “Didn’t


    you say that you’ll not be bothered by the Zimmers anymore? Are you so tempted by them you couldn’t


    hold your ground?”


    rissa snorted on the call. Looking through the car window, she saw the dazzling neon lights lit up


    one by one, brightening up the entire city. “It’s not that I can’t take it anymore. In fact, I wish to settle


    everything at once to prevent future disturbances.”


    “Really?” Matthew’s soft chuckles came from the other end of the call, and his voice was soothing to


    the ear.


    “Absolutely. But…” rissa murmured her words and the man couldn’t hear what she was saying, so


    he asked, “re, what did you say?”


    “Nothing,” rissa didn’t want to tell.


    “Haha…” Matthew let out a chuckle, and hisugh sounded as if he could tell what rissa was


    thinking without hearing about it directly from her.


    The woman felt embarrassed while her ears were flushed red. “I’m almost there, so I’ll hang up now.”


    After a while, rissa arrived at the restaurant Helen booked.


    Thetter was sitting alone at a table. Seeing this, rissa was relieved, as she could say everything


    she wanted.


    Looking at rissa, Helen smiled faintly and spoke mockingly, “What an honor to have you here. It’s so


    difficult to invite you out for a reunion.”


    Ignoring the woman, rissa smiled and sat in her seat. “You knew why I didn’t want toe.”


    Helen frowned. “Do you think I did it willingly?”

    Raising a brow at the woman, rissa asked, “So, why?”


    Helen argued, “I don’t have a choice.”


    rissa pursed her lips disapprovingly. “Hah! If you’re so reluctant, who can force you into it?”


    “You don’t understand how tough it was for me. By saying all these sarcastic remarks, you’re just trying


    to humiliate me.” Helen rolled her eyes and folded her arms.


    cing an arm on the table, rissa rested her chin on her hand and tilted her head. “Really? You’re


    the one who invited me to your wedding and was relentless with me at the ceremony. You reap what


    you sow, so me yourself for that.”


    “rissa, you…” Helen grimaced in annoyance.


    rissa red at her coldly. They were so direct with their words, but Helen was the only one who got


    angry with this argument.


    Both of them fell silent for a while. rissa focused on eating while Helen kept on staring at the former


    coldly. Her stares were filled with malicious intent, and it was as if she wanted to kill rissa.


    “Are you full just from staring at me?” rissa lifted her head to look at Helen after swallowing her


    food.


    Helen scoffed, “rissa, I didn’t invite you out for a meal.”


    “Oh?” rissa continued eating her food.


    “You…” Helen was speechless.


    Soon after, she said, “You know what I’m here for. Although I’m jealous of your rtionship with


    Matthew, I don’t have a choice. That’s right, you’ve won in choosing a man of higher status. Out of


    respect to Mr. Tyson, I’ll have to get along with you. I admit. I’m disgusting, but in the real world, and


    since I’ve married into the Zimmer family, I’ll have to obey them.”


    After pausing for a while, she insisted, “So let’s forget about the past and rebuild a new rtionship for


    now.”


    cing down her spoon, rissa wiped the corners of her lips with a paper towel and looked at Helen


    in the eyes. “There aren’t any feelings between us, let alone being friends. Besides, I don’t wish to have


    anything to do with you.”


    Helen snickered, “rissa, you’ve gone too far. You’re just one of Matthew’s women, so don’t think too


    highly of yourself. Staying in touch with me is a win-win for both of us, and you should stop fantasizing


    about your Cindere love story. Face the truth. You don’t have what it takes to be Mrs. Tyson, so why


    not cooperate with me while you still have his favor? Think twice before you reject my offer. Otherwise,


    you’ll regret it when he leaves you.”


    rissa had thought of everything Helen pointed out, and she knew what to do, so she remained calm


    and poised, not giving the reaction Helen had wanted to see, be it feeling sad, scared, orpromise


    with her offer.


    With an aloof expression, she said indifferently, “I’m not Cindere indeed. However, I’m not the type of


    person you think I am. I’m just dating a man I like, and it’s as simple as that. Helen, I will make it clear


    for you once and for all.”


    Clearing her throat, rissa continued, You want to cooperate with me? No way, and that’s it. Don’t


    you contact me ever again, as we’re not friends, to start with. Plus, I know you hate me. I just feel that


    it’s unfortunate and foolish of you to believe in a scumbag and develop hate toward your innocent


    schoolmate.”


    With that, rissa got ready to stand up. “Right. You didn’t eat, so I’ll pay for the meal because I don’t


    want to owe you anything.”


    “rissa, stop right there!” Helen got so angry that she lost control of her voice, while rissa nced


    back and raised a brow.


    Helen’s expression was ferocious, and she was gritting her teeth. “rissa, I do hate you, and don’t be


    too arrogant. I’ve lowered my pride to negotiate with you. What more do you want from me? Act high


    and mighty all you want, but just you wait, you’ll be dumped by Matthew one day.”


    rissa let out a sigh. Does she not understand humannguage?


    It would only be a waste of breath to say anything else, as Helen was stubborn and self-righteous. It


    was impossible for her to listen to others.


    Reluctant to drag on the conversation, rissa turned around and leave. Helen hates me anyway.


    She won’t understand, even if I exin any further.


    After parting on bad terms, rissa returned to Zen Hignds.


    Matthew wasn’t at home yet, so she sat on the wool carpet in front of the French windows, doing some


    research on her studio and checking her emails.


    One of the emails was from Justin. It was about choosing the actors and actresses for the movie. He


    asked for rissa’s rmendations, but of course, he would decide who to cast based on their


    performance at the audition.


    rissa thought of Ryler initially, but she didn’t rmend him. In the end, she only rmended


    Jamie as the candidate for one of the supporting roles to give the youngdy a chance. As for the male


    and female leads, she thought of a certain female artist when she was still working on the story of


    Princess. However, even though that female artist had the ssy demeanor rissa liked, her age


    made her unsuitable for the role.


    After replying to the email, she received a call from Justin.


    Thetter stated a problem about casting the actors. “Shermaine contacted me just now and requested


    to be the female lead. What do you think?”


    rissa froze for a while and replied, “Director Yates, Ms. Smallwood is pretty and has amazing acting


    skills. I don’t have any problem with that.”


    “Really? Are you not jealous?” Justin chuckled.


    rissa knew what he was getting at. “I won’t allow my personal feelings to impede my work.”


    Satisfied with rissa’s answer, Justin exined, “Alright. Then I’ll cast Shermaine because she has


    superb acting skills. However, her role isn’t the real princess, but the fake princess, as she’s more


    suitable for this character. And of course, I’m just doing my job.”


    rissa was grateful to Justin for asking her opinion. It didn’t matter even if it was out of respect for


    Matthew. What was important was that Justin gave her an exnation.


    Soon after, Justin said, “Of course. We don’t know if Shermaine is willing to act as a supporting


    character, so we can choose others when the timees.”


    When both of them were discussing the casts for other characters, Matthew came back.


    Noticing she was talking with somebody on her phone, he took off his coat and tossed it aside before


    walking toward her. He hugged her from behind and lowered his voice. “Who are you talking to?


    Hmm?”


    When Justin heard Matthew’s voice from the other end, he burst intoughter and said something


    before hanging up.


    rissa furrowed her brows slightly when the alcohol scent from his breath entered her nostrils. Putting


    her phone aside, she turned around in his arms.


    “Are you drunk?” She was mesmerized by his dark eyes when she gazed at him. It was as if it was a


    ck hole pulling her further and further into him.


    “Yeah…” Matthew’s voice was deep and husky. It sounded so sexy that rissa felt attacked.


    Taking her into an embrace, he caressed her back while pinching her chin. Then he lowered his head


    and leaned closer to her face, his nose brushing across her eyes and cheeks.


    Pressing his lips against hers, he insisted, “Who were you talking to?”


    He’s using his drunkenness to take advantage of me! What a pervert!


    rissa rolled her eyes at him in her mind and tried to push him away, but to no avail.


    The man tightened his grip on her and continued in amanding tone. “Hmm? Tell me now!”


    Seeing how stubborn he was, rissa could only tell him the truth. “Director Yates…”


    Jealousy stirred in Matthew’s heart when he heard her words.


    rissa added, “It was about Shermaine.”
