You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 286
With a surly face, Hry went home. As soon as she sat down, Yvonne stepped out of her bedroom
and bawled her out rudely.
“Why are you sitting here like a corpse? What’s with that long face? The Garretts feed you and gave
you money, you ungrateful piece of junk! Why are you looking at me like that? Cook something for me
now!”
However, Hry didn’t have the nerve to retort her.
“But it’s only three in the afternoon now. Are you hungry already?” she asked timidly.
“I said I’m hungry. How dare you question me! Hurry up, I want to eat now! Don’t you ask for others’
help. You have to do it yourself. I want a cake, a steak, and homemade pasta…”
Anyone could tell that Yvonne was picking on Hry, but none of the maids dared say a word.
Besides, that had been her standing in the family over the past few years. Every day, they despised
and hurled insults at her. Sometimes, Zach even hit her when he was in a foul mood. Even so, she still
stayed in this family.
The woman didn’t have the nerve to utter a word against them, nor did she have the guts to divorce
Zach. Only then could she retain her title as Mrs. Garrett.
Having seen through her thoughts, the Garretts’ behavior worsened and they tortured her even more.
Yet, she pulled through the hardship.
Watching Hry head to the kitchen, Yvonne let out a snicker. She then took the woman’s bag beside
her, rummaged through it, and poured everything out. There was nothing other than a few cosmetic
products.
Tossing the bag aside, the womany on the couch and scrolled through her phone.
Yvonne had just returned from a shopping spree overseas a few days ago. She had been in a foul
mood, thus venting her bitterness on Hry. If it wasn’t for this woman, I would’ve been married.
Back then, Yvonne resented rissa. However, because of thetter’s rtionship with Matthew,
Mason was about to tie the knot with her. Much to her surprise, things took a drastic turn at rissa’s
birthday party. The woman gloated over it when she heard that rissa left D City together with her
family. Out of the blue, Mason decided to put the wedding on hold. After some time, he broke off their
engagement.
Yvonne wailed and made a big fuss out of it but to no avail. Half a yearter, she finally gave up and
put all the me on Hry.
Due to rissa and Matthew’s breakup, Zach took his rage out on Hry, hitting and cursing her.
Up till now, Yvonne couldn’t figure out why Hry supported her daughter’s decision to leave Matthew.
When thetter said that rissa did it because Matthew was out of her league, she never believed a
word. As a vain and materialistic woman, she must have done it with an ulterior motive, but they
couldn’t put their finger on it.
She continued to endure the maltreatment without a whimper, refusing to get a divorce, while Yvonne
had gotten ustomed to torturing her whenever they met.
Scrolling down the screen, she suddenly saw a post about @rissa.quigley. It had been a long while
since she checked out this social media ount. Never had she thought that rissa would be back in
D City. Sitting up, Yvonne read every post, from the time she showed up at a charity auction to the
scandals. Her frequent appearances seemed to have caused quite a stir in showbiz.
Isn’t rissa going to do something since she’s back? I don’t believe it. Three years ago, she was
kicked out and left in dejection. I would be indignant if I were her.
“Pfft!” Yvonne let out a snigger.
rissa is still as annoying as before. So what if she’s back and her career is thriving? The Tysons
have despised her, and she’s involved in countless scandals. Who is going to ept a woman like
her? Yes, I can do nothing to her, but watching her stay alone and miserable for life pleases me.
When Hry came out of the kitchen, she announced idly, “Hey, do you know that rissa is back in D
City?”
Stunned for a second, the woman put a te of homemade pasta on the table without a word.
Yvonne chuckled with glee. “Do you think she’s back to take vengeance?”
Hry shuddered at her question. A few secondster, she added, “Back then, Shermaine was
imprisoned, and rissa’s rtives had a hard time. However, as her biological mother, you caused
my Dad’s business to go downhill. Yes, you didn’t lose a thing. But do you really think that rissa
doesn’t hold grudges against you? Tsk, tsk… You ruined your daughter’s life with your own hand. Now
that she has made aeback and is doing well, I wonder if she will settle scores with you.”
Staring at Hry’s ghastly pale face, Yvonne was delighted,ughing out loud. Then, she tossed the
te of homemade pasta into the trash can.
“What rubbish is this? Cook it again.”
With that said, she stood up and headed upstairs. Hry’s fingers quivered as she stood rooted to the
spot with a sullen face, at a loss for what to do next.
Together with the director and the producer, rissa was sifting through the photos and resumes of
some actors. They were still in the first round of screening. Leonard and Skyler had been chosen to be
the lead actors. Still, the production team was being meticulous in the selection of the supporting
actors. Their perfectionismpelled them to pick every actor carefully, including the extras.
Unexpectedly, rissa spotted Jamie’s photo, and it surprised her.
She thought Jamie would never show up in public again, because thetter had been cklisted
previously. Though three years had passed, the woman was still working as an actress.
“What’s the matter? Ms. Quigley, do you know her?”
ncing at the director, she shook her head in denial. “No, I don’t know her.”
“She’s a newbie who started off as an extra. Her acting skills are not bad. I think she’s a good fit for this
role. What do you think, Ms. Quigley? Shall we ask her toe for an audition?”
A smile spread across rissa’s face. “It’s up to you.”
She didn’t oppress Jamie, but regarded her as a stranger.
It takes much perseverance to start from scratch as an extra. The showbiz is full of twists and turns. No
one can predict what’s going to happen next.
rissa lingered around for half a day before leaving. The woman had made up her mind not to attend
the audition, so the crew have the final say regarding the roles.
Afterward, she went to see Joshua. The man had finished drawing the pictures for her children’s book.
Eagerly, he showed rissa his work to boast about his capabilities.
Seeing through his vanity, she showered him withpliments.
“Rissa, do you regret not choosing me?”
Having heard these words from him repeatedly, rissa was totally unfazed.
“Joshua, I have an idea, but I’m not sure about it, so I’m asking for your opinion. I’m thinking of
coborating with Ms. Schloss.”
“What? Are you going to marry me? No need to ask my Mom’s permission. I can make decisions on my
own.”
Speechless, rissa rolled her eyes at him and said directly, “I want to work with her charity to help
children. At first, the book was a gift to my son, butpared to my son, I realized that the needy
children needed this gift even more. Hence, I discussed with Yael and decided to publish the book, and
all the profit will be donated to Ms. Schloss’ foundation. On top of that, all the needy children will get
this book for free.”
“This is a great idea! I’m sure Ms. Schloss will be d to work with you. I’ll tell her about it now. Then,
you two can get in touch with each other for further discussions. She’s always keen to do good works.”
rissa was thrilled when she got Olive’s contact number. After knowing her idea from Joshua, Olive
contacted her personally and thanked her for being so benevolent. She even made an appointment
with rissa to meet up at the office of her children’s foundation, so they could chew over the idea.
At night, rissa was still excited when she told Matthew about it.
Not only would she get involved in a charity, but she was going to coborate with Olive as well. I feel
like I’m turning into a saint.
At that thought, she couldn’t help but break into a fit of giggles, leaning against his chest.
Twiddling with his toys, Damian saw his mother’s joyful countenance and asked, “Mommy, are you
happy?”
Pausing briefly, the woman gazed lovingly at her son. “Yes, Darling, I’m happy.”
Damian grinned, revealing his teeth. “Mommy, I’m a little happy too.”
“A little happy? Why is it only a little?”
“I have Daddy, Mommy, and a lot of toys. It’ll be perfect if I can have one more piece of chocte.”
She was tongue-tied.
Matthew couldn’t help but chuckle. Damian can say all kinds of sweet nothings just for food.
In fact, he had already eaten too much chocte tonight, so rissa stopped him. As a result, the boy
was upset for hours, fiddling with his toy with his head lowered. But his parents didn’t give a damn.
Knowing his son’s character, she was certain that he wouldn’t give up easily.
Sure enough, the boy struck up a conversation in an attempt to get more chocte.
Matthew was impressed by his son’s persistence, while rissa giggled in amusement, but she
refused to give in the slightest bit.
“Darling, you’ve had too much, so you can’t eat any more chocte today. Alright, keep your toys and
let Daddy bring you upstairs to get ready to sleep.”
Obediently, the man picked Damian up and walked up the stairs.
Behind the father-and-son duo, the woman warned, ”Matthew, don’t you give him chocte in secret,
or else I won’t let you off the hook.”
The two kept quiet with a pang of guilt.
Matthew nced at his pitiful-looking son, while thetter peeked at his docile father. We’re in the
same boat.
Stepping into the bathroom, they whispered to one another.
“Son, there’s nothing I can do. Let’s listen to Mommy, and we’ll be happy too.”Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
