You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 225


    For the next couple of days, rissa brought Catherine on a city tour as nned. They couldn’t really


    do much due to Catherine’s physical condition, so rissa could only bring her for walks at ces with


    beautiful sceneries.


    As the weather was extremely cold in D City, they would only spend the morning outdoors and the rest


    of the day resting at home.


    Matthew was busy most of the time, but he would still find time to take a walk with Catherine or at least


    have dinner with her, much to her satisfaction.


    Maybe dating ry has changed him and made him a much more caring and responsible man… I


    suppose I don’t have to worry about her after all…


    After that, Catherine then spent a few more days resting and catching up with rissa.


    At the same time, Ellie had heard about Catherine’s visit and dropped by to hang out with her as well.


    While the three of them were having a chat at Zen Hignds, Catherine even showed them how to


    square dance and got Julia to join in.


    Just as they were having a great time, Catherine’s phone rang, and she excused herself to take the


    call.


    Thinking it was probably an old friend calling to check in on her, she answered it happily, only to have


    her smile disappear a few seconds into the call.


    “No, I’m not going! Just go back the way you came! You guys aren’t children anymore, okay? Why


    don’t you ever think before you act? I said, no…”


    “What’s wrong, Grandma?” rissa asked.


    Catherine gave her a reassuring look as she continued, “You guys did this to yourselves. Don’t ever


    call me again!”


    She hung up the phone after that and seemed to be in a bad mood.


    Ellie and rissa exchanged nces, and thetter was quick to ask, “Grandma… Was that Aunt


    Gloria?” Only Aunt Gloria would be able to upset Grandma this much!


    Catherine let out a deep sigh and looked at her. “I bet they’re up to no good again. Let’s just ignore


    them and carry on with the dance!”


    “What did they say, Grandma?” rissa asked anyway.


    Catherine hesitated for a bit before saying, “They’ve just arrived at the train station in D City, and they


    want you to go pick them up because they haven’t found a ce to stay.”


    Noticing the sneer on rissa’s face, Catherine quickly added, “Forget about them, re. I’ve told


    Gloria that she is no longer my daughter, so they’re on their own now. Besides, they’re not kids


    anymore. They can just find themselves a room in a hotel or something. Come on. Let’s just get back to


    our dance!”


    The four of them then carried on with the square dance, leaving Gloria and her husband cursing angrily


    as they made their way through the crowd at the station.


    “How could Mom be so cruel to us after all I’ve told her? I bet that b*tch rissa must’ve said


    something to her! She’s just as annoying as her mother!”


    Jacob frowned impatiently. “That’s enough, Gloria. Ranting about it won’t help. Let’s just go see Mimi


    for now.”


    “Mimi? That little sh*t refused to see us the moment she heard we wereing! Said she didn’t want


    us embarrassing her! What’s the point in going to her?”


    “Damn it! How dare she do that to us after all the money I’ve spent on providing her with the best?”


    Jacob shouted angrily.


    “Don’t say that, Honey… Mimi told me that her friends are all very rich, so we’d just embarrass her if we


    were to go see her. You wouldn’t want that to happen, would you? This is all rissa’s fault, not Mimi’s.


    That ungrateful b*tch… She’s forgotten about everything I did for her…” Gloria said as she and Jacob


    made their way out of the station.


    They eventually found themselves a room in a nearby hotel. After unpacking, they gave Mimi a call and


    met up with herter that day.


    It wasn’t until they saw her appear in a pretty dress that they felt a slight relief.


    “Oh, my god! You look so pretty, Mimi! Moving to a big city really does wonders for you!”


    Mimi smiled smugly. “Mom, Dad, have you guys visited rissa?”


    Gloria got mad the moment she heard that and began ranting about rissa all over again.


    My parents are so useless… And here I was, hoping to meet her and that rich fiancé of hers… Mimi


    thought to herself after listening to what Gloria said.


    “Didn’t I tell you two to go after Grandma? She’s soft-hearted, so she’s bound to help you out with a bit


    of crying here and there!”


    “I did! Have you forgotten how many times I’ve cried in front of her? Heck, I even prepared a bunch of


    gifts for her, but that didn’t work either! That b*tch rissa must’ve brainwashed her or something!”Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    “Grandma must be staying with her at that Tyson guy’s ce right now… I can’t believe you two came


    all the way here only to stay in some cheap hotel room! You guys are so useless!”


    Gloria hung her head in shame from how lowly her daughter thought of her.


    “You got a better idea?” Jacob asked.


    “Well… Mom isn’t feeling well, right? Go see a doctor at the hospital or something. I’m sure Grandma


    will soften up when she finds out that her daughter is sick!” Mimi said after giving it some thought.


    “Yes, that’s a great idea! I’ve been having a really bad stomachachetely, so we could use this


    opportunity to get it checked out!”


    The three of them headed over to the hospital the next day for a simple check-up, only to find out that


    Gloria had uterine fibroid.


    Gloria was so shocked by the news that she nearly fainted on the spot. Mimi however, felt somewhat


    happy as she skimmed through the medical report. A tumor in the uterus is quite a big deal! There’s no


    way Grandma wouldn’t be softhearted now! On top of that, this is all real, so we don’t need to falsify


    anything to make theme over! This time, I won’t let rissa and that rich man of hers get away!


    With that in mind, Mimi gave Catherine a call and just kept crying until Catherine asked her what


    happened. She then told Catherine all about Gloria’s tumor as well as the hospital they were in.


    Catherine was indeed shaken up by the news and rushed over to the hospital with rissa.


    Although skeptical, rissa chose to keep her thoughts to herself. We’ll find out if they’re telling the


    truth when we get there…


    It took Gloria quite some time to calm down, even after the doctor had reassured her that the surgery


    was low-risk and had a high recovery rate.


    The doctor then pulled Jacob aside and told him about the potential risks and the need for further


    examinations before the surgery.


    However, when Catherine and rissa arrived, Mimi broke down in tears as she told them what the


    doctor said in a much more exaggerated manner.


    Catherine felt her heart ache at the thought of her possibly losing her daughter after having lost her


    son.


    rissa, on the other hand, waspletely calm as she asked Mimi, “So, you said it was a tumor?


    What kind of tumor is it? Where’s her medical report? What did the doctor say?”


    Mimi knew there was no hiding it from rissa, but that didn’t matter as she came anyway.


    She showed rissa the medical report and continued crying towards Catherine, “The doctor said she


    needs surgery, but we can’t get her a ward as the hospital is short of beds at the moment. They would


    only let us use this bed in the corridor because Mom fainted from the pain earlier. What do we do now,


    Grandma?”


    “Don’t be afraid, Mimi. I’m sure your mom will be fine.”


    Catherine then turned towards rissa and asked, “What do you think, re? Should we get her


    treated back at W City?”


    “We can’t do that, Grandma! The doctors over there aren’t as good as the ones in D City! If something


    goes wrong with the surgery, my mom would…”


    “Enough with the crying already!” rissa shouted coldly at Mimi.


    “You’ll help Mom, won’t you? I know we have our differences and all, but her life is at stake here!


    Please help us, I’m begging you!” Mimi begged her with a pitiful look in her eyes.


    rissa frowned. “We’ll arrange for her to stay in the hospital for the time being. Come on, let’s go


    check with the staff at the counter. There’s no way they wouldn’t let her be hospitalized. Grandma, you


    wait here with Aunt Gloria.”


    She then dragged Mimi along with her to rify with the counter staff. Although Mimi had lied about the


    hospital being short of beds, that turned out to actually be the case and would take a few days before


    they could try to free up a bed. With the situation being in her favor, Mimi simply continued to cry


    helplessly while waiting for rissa’s response.


    Right that moment, rissa couldn’t care less if she was putting up an act, as Gloria was indeed


    proven to be sick.


    “Mimi, go back and keep Aunt Gloriapany. I’ll see if I can work something out.”


    Mimi nodded and did as told.


    After she left, rissa then let out a deep sigh as she called Matthew for help.


    By the time she got off the phone and rejoined the group, they had already finished the hospitalization


    procedures and transferred Gloria into a ward with three other patients in it.


    The doctor then exined once more to everyone about the low-risk surgery and high recovery rate,


    which helped relieve the tension significantly.


    “Thank you, re…” Mimi said all of a sudden in a seemingly sincere manner.


    Gloria chimed in as well, “Yes… Thank you so much, ry…”


    “That’s right! This is all possible thanks to ry!” Catherine said gratefully.


    “We should be thanking her fiancé too, remember?” Mimi added.


    Hmm… She does sound like she genuinely wants to thank him… rissa red at Mimi as she


    thought to herself.
