You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 188
rissa did not leave immediately. Instead, she stood her ground and mustered up the courage to
speak.
“Grandma…”
“I don’t want to hear anything!” the older woman yelled.
That took rissa by surprise. She was hurt by Margaret’s words and the look that she gave her.
Nheless, she was already prepared for a reaction like this when the Tysons find out about her
rtionship with Matthew.
She was only facing it slightly earlier than expected.
Although rissa knew it was wrong to talk back, she had to say her piece.
“Matthew and I are truly in love.”
“Shut up!”
nk! The olderdy reached out to throw an item in rissa’s direction, which narrowly missed the
latter’s head.
Should I be grateful that Old Mrs. Tyson didn’t throw it at my head?
Margeret continued to make a racket. “You are so brazen! Why are you still here? Do you want money?
How much do you need? Is half a million enough or maybe one million?”
“I don’t want any money,” rissa uttered.
“Then, leave this ce right now.”
rissa knew no matter what she said, Margaret would not hear it.
Although she felt terrible, she could only turn to leave.
“Wait…”
Abruptly, Margaret stopped her. rissa turned to see that a softer gaze from her. Looking at the
young woman, Margaret offered, “This is a stack of cash for you. If you leave D City by today, I will not
make things difficult for you. However, if you continue to remain stubborn, I will not sit back and do
nothing. I may be old, but I am not senile. There are plenty of things up my sleeve. Hmm, isn’t your
grandma is around my age? If you don’t leave, I will call her personally andin about your
upbringing.”
rissa’s expression darkened.
She could bear all the humiliation or scolding, but her grandmother was her only family, so there was
no way rissa would let Margaret get her involved.
“That is my issue. Leave my grandma out of it.”
Feeling victorious, Magaret challenged, “How is it only your issue? Your upbringing is questionable. Did
no one tell you that it is wrong to steal things that don’t belong to you? In this case, you wanted
something that doesn’t belong to you. Then, you secretly made it yours when it never belonged to you
in the first ce.”
“Matthew is a person and not an object. How can I steal a person?” rissa was in disbelief.
Unfortunately, Margaret did not back down and continued, “Even if you did not steal, you tried to
seduce him. We trusted you, but in contrast, you got closer to Ellie to benefit from our family.”
“No, I am truly friends with Ellie.”
“Well, what a shame. Who will believe you?” Margaret mocked.
She made rissa feel embarrassed and cornered.
“You are still young and beautiful. If you want to date, can’t you find someone of your age? Why do you
have to date Ellie’s uncle? You say that both of you are in love. Is that even possible? Even if I believe
you, a stranger will not. To put it bluntly, I’m sure you know the criticisms you will receive if others find
out about the rtionship.”
Seeing rissa’s eyes well up with tears, Margaret thought she looked pitiful.
Despite so, when she thought about how the younger woman had seduced her son and secretly living
together, she grew angrier. She was upset to be deceived and wanted to give that woman two tight
ps.
Once a person believed that she had been deceived, she would think that the betrayer was better off
dead.
Currently, Margaret felt that way. Thinking back, she was sure that her son rejected the girls she
rmended to him because of rissa. Simrly, their rtionship probably was the cause of his
behavior towards Sienna, a kind and likable woman from a good background.
The more she pondered over it, her hatred for rissa became more obvious in her expression. There
were seemingly more wrinkles on her face now.
She mmed the table forcefully and cruelly gestured towards the door. “Get out now.”
rissa could not stay there any longer either. With tears streaming down her face, she turned to
leave.
At that moment, the door opened.
Matthew scanned at the scene. Seeing his beloved woman crying, he immediately took her into his
arms.
Lowering his head, heforted, “re, don’t cry anymore. I’m here.”
Margaret was furious to see Matthew being so protective over rissa.
She shot rissa a death stare, but Matthew blocked her sight. With the woman in his arms, he
headed out with her.
“Matthew, you better stop right there!” Margaret fumed.
Her son stopped in his tracks but turned around and sneered, “We shall talk after I return. She is not to
be med for anything. I’m responsible for everything.”
With that, he left with rissa.
Once they got into the car, Matthew immediately hugged rissa. Then, he bowed his head and
nted a kiss on her forehead.
In a gentle and low voice, he whispered, “re, I’m sorry. This is my fault.”
rissa shook her head while in his arms.
Although her eyes were filled with tears, she firmly stated, “If we have to ce the me on someone,
then it is both of our faults. It isn’t only just your problem because love is an affair between both
parties.”
Amusement shed across Matthew’s eyes. He cupped rissa’s chin and kissed her.
“re, you should remain like that. No matter what they say, you should always stay by my side,
okay?”
His tone made it sound more like pleading disguised as a threat.
As she looked into his eyes, she could not find any willpower to go against him.
“Okay,” she confidently replied.
She did not want to be separated from him at this moment.
While Matthew nibbled on her lips, he whispered, “Good girl…I love you…”
When they returned to Zen Hignds, rissa was still affected by the earlier events. She did not
have an appetite for dinner and did not seem well either.
Matthew did not like to see her in that state. He initiated sex, and soon after, they paid no attention to
the earlier events. Spent, they fell asleep.
The next day, Matthewforted rissa and ordered her not to ept any phone calls nor invites
from the Tysons. If any of them came by, no one would be allowed toe into Zen Hignds.
After telling her what to do, he left.
In the meantime, the Tysons were waiting at home after they heard about Matthew’s news. Since they
were not busy that day, they started to discuss the issue.
Matthias was also anxiously waiting at home. He knew that this day woulde. Last night, when he
returned home, Margaret was livid, and she threw tantrums throughout the night. Even his wife,
Yuliana, was cursing at rissa and showing her displeasure towards Matthew.

The most supportive person of the rtionship was naturally Ellie since she did not mind having
rissa as her aunt. She tried to put in good words for them but was shot down by the other two
women.
As for Matthias and George, they seemed unaffected.
“Matthias, when Matthewe home, will you talk to him? He can marry whoever he wants, except for
rissa.” Margaret tried to persuade her elder son.
To her dismay, Matthias pointed out, “Mom, Dad already agreed for Matthew to decide who he is going
to marry. Of course, it was always his decision, and as his elder brother, I don’t have the right to step in.
He is not a kid anymore and has the right to choose his wife. I’m sure he knows what he is doing.”
Margaret sarcastically replied, “What do you mean? Although you put it very nicely, if he chooses to
marry someone like rissa, our family will be the joke of the town.”
“Mom, you are right. For instance, what would the Wynters, the Grandes and Mr. Reed think of us?
There were so many other candidates, but Matthew decided to pick another young and pretty girl. What
would people think of him and our family? As part of the family, how can I face the world to have a
sister-inw who is around the same age as my daughter?” Yuliana added.
She even rolled her eyes at her husband for not helping in the situation.
Feeling unjust for her friend, Ellie snorted, “Mom, isn’t Shermaine around my age too? Sienna is also
only two years older than me. You might as welle clean andin about her background. You
don’t have to go in circles and find excuses to oppose the rtionship.”
“Ellie!” Yuliana roared in rage and embarrassment.
Her mother’s outburst made Ellie moved closer to George.
“Grandpa is the head of the family. He hasn’t even spoken, so why are all of you rushing to share your
opinions? Let me remind all of you that Uncle Matt will never be at your mercy. If you provoke him, he
might note home and might even cut his ties with us,” Ellie reminded.
Matthew’s ties with them were not like the others. His rtionship with his family was rtively weak.
Although Ellie’s words were extreme, she did make them start to worry about her warning.
Margaret looked slightly defeated, and she could only grunt in annoyance. Coincidentally, Matthew
returned.
Ignoring the intense stares from his family members, he casually sat down and lit up a cigarette.
Sandwiched between his slender fingers, he took a puff before he coldly exined, “I was the one who
pursued re. If I did not initiate it, do you think she would be mine?”
That was true!
Before she met Matthew, rissa could be described as a woman with a pure heart and little desire.
Regardless, to a mother, her son was never wrong.
Margaret was determined to pin the me on rissa. To her, rissa was a vixen who ruined her
son’s ideal marriage.
“I don’t care who started it. What happened must end now. Matthew, let me make things clear. I have to
approve the wife you marry. Even if you don’t choose Shermaine nor Sienna, your wife must not be
rissa,” she proimed.
Narrowing his eyes, Matthew took another puff from his cigarette. The atmosphere was tense.
Realizing that Matthias had not spoken, Yuliana nudged her husband.
For a long while, no one dared to speak.
Then, Matthew squeezed his cigarette and broke the silence, “I will marry rissa.”
