You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 185


    Even though rissa felt a little unpleasant inside, she obeyed Matthew and stayed indoors in Zen


    Hignds.


    She didn’t feel like going out anyway, but that didn’t mean that other people did not invite her out.


    All of a sudden, she received a phone call from Mimi saying that she wasing to D City for her


    studies. In the past, Mimi had mentioned that she nned toe to D City, but rissa didn’t expect


    it to be true.


    Moreover, Mimi sounded rather self-entitled during the call. “re, you said you would take care of me


    and let me stay in your ce when Ie to D City.”


    “When did I promise you that? I only said that I would arrange amodation for you in a hotel,”


    rissa answered unpleasantly.


    Knowing how shameless Mimi could be, she made sure not to be too nice or amodating.


    Otherwise, Mimi would walk all over her.


    rissa had told her off before in the past, but it wasn’t long before her arrogant attitude surfaced


    again.


    Mimi expected that she would react this way, so she chuckled and said, “re, do you not care about


    me? I’m almost like your younger sister.”


    “Don’t you have ssmates? Wouldn’t it be better to live with other students so you can focus on your


    studies?” rissa retorted.


    “rissa Quigley, let me get this clear with you. All I have to do is say a few things about you on the


    Inte, and your reputation will be ruined,” Mimi threatened her.


    rissa frowned, but she wasn’t surprised at all.


    There were tons of books published in rissa’s name, so it wasn’t difficult for Mimi to guess that she


    was a famous writer.


    When Mimi didn’t hear an answer from rissa, she snorted and said, “Haha… re, I just want to


    stay with you alright! Come pick me up from the airport and let me stay with you. I won’t bother you


    much, you’ll see.”


    Just like that, she hung up the phone.


    After the call ended, rissa let out a sigh. She worried that Mimi would actually carry out her threats


    given that she was someone with no principles.


    She decided to give Matthew a call to tell him about Mimi.


    “Should I go and pick her up? And let her stay in that apartment?” she said.


    “No need. I’ll get someone to deal with this matter,” Matthew answered.


    “Huh? How are you going to handle this matter? You better not let her y any tricks on you. Thest


    time she saw you, she——” rissa was cut off before she could finish speaking.


    “Don’t worry about this, re. Just let me handle it, alright? You don’t have to make yourself unhappy


    by meeting her. I’ll just get someone to handle her. Don’t worry,” Matthew interjected.


    rissa ced her trust in him and decided not to worry further about the matter.


    That night, Mimi gave rissa a call and grumbled, “What kind of shabby ce did you arrange for me


    to stay? Did you spend all your money on your little pretty face? You must be doing this on purpose. I’m


    warning you, I will spread the news about how malicious you are.”


    Just as rissa was about to respond, Matthew took the phone from her and said, “If you want to


    tarnish re’s reputation, just go ahead and do so. But you can forget about going to the film academy


    too. Remember those pictures of you with that guy…?”


    “Ah… you despicable faggot!” Mimi cursed at him.


    Matthew hung up on her that instant. It was obvious that he wasn’t afraid of Mimi’s threats.


    Meanwhile, rissa stared at him in surprise as she said, “Did you just hang up on her? What pictures


    were you referring to? Who’s that guy?”


    Matthew touched her face gently, his lips twitched as he exined, “She had a boyfriend named Eric


    back in W City. He was a troublemaker, and they took some intimate pictures together.”


    “Huh?? She’s only eighteen years old. How can——” Mimi was clearly angry, but she was also


    disappointed in Mimi.


    “Just leave her alone. It was her own choice, and she did it for money,” Matthew replied.


    rissa furrowed her brows. “I should have expected this. Mimi is a vain and short-sighted person, just


    like my aunt. She would steal for the sake of maintaining her appearance, so I’m not surprised that she


    would sell her own body for some quick cash. One day she will regret her actions,” she said in


    disappointment.


    “Do you actually think she’s capable of regret? I don’t think so,” Matthew said sarcastically.


    rissa then let out a sigh and said, “You’re probably right. I just can’t understand what goes on in her


    mind.”


    Mimi’s life was indeed a result of her own actions, so rissa decided not to get involved so much.


    Both of Mimi’s parents were still around, yet they did not care much about their own daughter. What


    more could rissa do to intervene? Even if she did, she wouldn’t be appreciated.


    After Matthew’s counter threat, Mimi didn’t bother rissa anymore.


    A few dayster, the police provided several updates on rissa’s case.


    The two punks who had attacked Mandy were arrested in their hometowns, and based on their


    statements, they were paid to follow and destroy rissa when they could.


    However, when the two of them managed to spot rissa outdoors, they did not dare to get too close


    to her. It so happened that Mandy was wearing a simr beige coat, so she ended up being their


    unfortunate target.


    These two punks were rash and inurate in their actions, so it meant that the person who hired them


    didn’t know their abilities very well.


    On the other hand, the truck driver who got into the ident with Dn had a long driving history and


    was out drinking with some friends that night. In the past, he had been involved in another drunk-


    driving ident where he used up all his savings topensate the victim. His wife and kid ended up


    leaving him, so he decided to give up drinking and turn over a new leaf. However, he started drinking


    again after a short while and ended up in another ident, this time involving Dn.

    Though it seemed like a genuine ident, the police took no chances. They conducted a thorough


    investigation and interrogated the driver until they finally found a loophole.


    The truck driver had a son who lived with his ex-wife. He was an excellent student attending D City’s


    top university, and he was due to go abroad for an exchange program soon.


    This did not seem like an issue at first, but when the police dug for more detail at his university, they


    found out that he had once been removed from the list of exchange students. It turned out that the


    truck driver’s son had been reced with another student on the list, and many people felt that this was


    unfair to him since he was an excellent student. Later on, the truck driver’s son was added onto the list


    again, and it seemed like the scales of justice were bnced once again.


    However, when the police investigated further, they discovered that the truck driver’s ex-wife had paid a


    university official to get her son on the exchange program list again. Her son was undoubtedly


    supposed to be on that list, but since he was removed without any exnation, it was understandable


    why she chose to bribe the university official. Arger question arose from this discovery. How did this


    so-called poor family manage to find such arge sum of money to pay the university?


    The truck driver’s ex-wife did not know how he got the money, and the driver himself did not want to


    admit it at first. But after further investigations, the police found out that the driver received the money


    from the same person who had paid Mandy’s two attackers.


    Soon, the police managed to arrest the suspect, and he was also charged for gambling and drug


    abuse.


    It was soon uncovered that these punks were hired online through a group chat. No one knew who


    started this group chat which was filled with all sorts of thugs and hooligans. These people had


    committed many shady crimes, and they would usually be contacted privately for new jobs. The truck


    driver happened to stumble upon this group chat by chance where he offered his services for some


    quick money. Shortly after, an unknown person hired him to create trouble for rissa.


    This person did not bother whether rissa was left dead or alive as long as he created some form of


    trouble for her.


    Tempted by the cash reward, the truck driver decided to take up the job. He was even promised more


    money after the job waspleted.


    “Mr. Tyson, we can’t find that person in the group chat. It seems like he left the chat a long time ago,


    and he was using a temporary phone number then. The truck driver was simply instructed to pick up


    the cash at an appointed location. We have yet to find out who delivered the cash to the pick-up point.”


    One of the policeman updated rissa and Matthew on the developments of their investigation.


    This confirmed that there was indeed someone vicious going after rissa, but they just couldn’t catch


    him.


    Matthew’s eyes sank as he asked, “Are there no surveince cameras at the pick-up point? Have your


    people not managed to look into this?”


    The policeman answered, “Mr. Tyson, the pick-up point was at an amusement park. The ce is


    usually crowded with children and their parents. It’s hard to tell who’s who.”


    “Can’t you bait him out?” Matthew challenged.


    “This person only makes one-way contact, and he knows Ms. Quigley’s situation very well. He didn’t


    drop off the cash in the same pick-up point this time, meaning he knows that he was unsessful in


    harming Ms. Quigley. He won’t resurface again anytime soon. We’ve lost our trail of clues,” said the


    policeman.


    A murderous look shed across Matthew’s eyes that instant.


    rissa quickly stepped in to say, “Alright, thank you so much for your help.”


    After the policeman left, she turned to hug Matthew and acted cute in his embrace. “See, the person


    has gone into hiding already. He probably wouldn’t do anything rash since he knows we are on guard,


    so we can rx for now. I can at least go out for some outdoor activities now, right?”


    Matthew wrapped his arms around her waist as he pondered over her words, then said, “I’ll get a few


    bodyguards to escort you.”


    “No!” she quickly refused. “Going out with bodyguards is simply ridiculous. It’s not like I go out that


    often anyway. I’m always vignt when I go out, and I’d rather have you, Mr. Davis, or Mrs. Lawson to


    apany me!”


    Nevertheless, Matthew did not agree to her demands.


    The next day, rissa was escorted by a cool-looking female driver with short hair.


    The driver did not seem like a simple person as rissa could sense a murderous vibe from her.


    Is she supposed to be my new driver and bodyguard at the same time?


    How much more ridiculous can this be?
