You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 328
“Ms. Quigley, I’m truly sorry for bothering you.”
Jamie’s attitude was earnest, but at the same time filled with restraining fear.
rissa simply nced at her emotionlessly before getting straight to the point without wasting any
time.
“Stop beating around the bush. Just tell me what you want.”
A dark expression loomed over Jamie’s face. “Ms. Quigley, could we talk inside?”
rissa shook her head firmly. “Even though you’re a woman, it’s better to just talk here. I’m a cautious
person, after all.”
Upon hearing that, the color drained from Jamie’s face. She clenched her fists tightly while staring at
rissa with an apologetic expression.
Regardless of whether her remorse was sincere or not, at least she was acting like she meant it.
However, it seemed that rissa was not buying it at all. It was exactly because Jamie was good at
acting that rissa had no way to differentiate her authenticity.
As such, rissa’s tone was as cold as ever when she said, “Stop wasting my time, please. There are
still people waiting for me to start working.”
She meant it as a reminder as well as a warning.
Jamie bit her lips tightly when she realized rissa would not show her any sympathy no matter how
hard she tried.
Besides, she was also aware that she had crossed thetter’s line a long time ago and would never
deserve a second chance.
“Ms. Quigley, I’ll admit that it was my faultst time, but I’ve paid the price. I came to the film studio
three years ago and started from the bottom. I’ve truly repented and have worked hard up till now. Ms.
Quigley, do you have any idea what I had to go through to get here…”
rissa did not intend to let Jamie finished what she wanted to say, as she was hardly interested in it.
In fact, she knew that Jamie was about to borate on what difficulties she had gone through.
So what? Serves you right. I’ve been really kind by not shutting you downpletely.
With that thought, she lifted her hand and interrupted Jamie abruptly. “That’s enough. I got your point.
You’re afraid that I would burn your bridge again, aren’t you?”
“I…”
“If that’s so, then you don’t have to worry. I’m not that cruel.”
Instantly, Jamie beamed at rissa with her eyes still moist with tears. “Ms. Quigley, that’s really kind
of you. I…”
She wanted to approach rissa and thank her but was swiftly evaded by thetter.
“I won’t do anything to you, but at the same time, I would never befriend you again. Jamie, I am not a
devil, and neither am I a saint. From now on, we’re merely strangers. Do you understand?”
Hearing that, Jamie backed away with obvious disappointment written all over her face.
“Yes… I understand… This is what I deserve…”
rissa ended the conversation with a ruthless tone. “Well, if there’s nothing else, you should leave.
Don’t ever look for me again. And if we meet at the site, do not greet me.”
Upon saying that, she swiftly closed the door and walked into the room. Meanwhile, their conversations
were overheard by Hilda.
Thetter was left in slight bewilderment by what she heard. It was then that she recalled there was
once a newbie named Jamie who was rather famous but disappeared without any news for years.
Many thought she had gotten married and started a family somewhere.
But now Hilda found out that it was all because the mentioned actress had offended rissa.
Holy sh*t. This is the biggest secret in showbiz!
As rissa came back earlier than Hilda expected, thetter had a hard time suppressing her
nervousness and curiosity. Her dilemma was observed by rissa.
“Alright, stop with the act. Jamie and I were friends, and she betrayed me for some profits. I was lucky
and didn’t get harmed, but our friendship was over. In the end, I took my revenge, and it came to what
you heard just now.”

Hilda nodded cautiously. “Okay.”
Looking at her timid attitude, rissa let out a chuckle. “Hilda, you have to be careful with anyone you
come across in this industry. The temptation of lust and profit can easily deceive any human heart. So
don’t ever trust anyone, including me. Understand?”
Hilda was frozen in shock by her statement.
However, rissa did not seem to care what Hilda felt as the former sat down and started changing the
subject to work.
Her sudden change in behavior might seem heartless, but it was hardly her fault for bing such a
hard-hearted person. After all, she was once a victim of her friend’s betrayal, who she trusted
wholeheartedly.
In other words, rissa had learned the lesson of life the hard way.
Looking at how rissa was acting, Hilda did not dare to further question the matter.
It was around ten o’clock when rissa’s phone rang again, as punctual as ever. Spotting that, Hilda
sensibly left the room.
There was a rumor saying that rissa was the one who pursued Matthew. However, judging by
Matthew’s attitude toward rissa and the daily call, Hilda was certain that Matthew was the one who
took the initial move in this rtionship.
Thus, she no longer believed in the rumor that rissa had used all sorts of tactics to marry into
money.
Anyone who still mocks rissa should have a look with their own eyes. Who says that whoever
marries a rich family will definitely be a vain woman? Obviously, they’re just jealous, and their criticisms
are sour grapes.
The more Hilda thought about it, the angrier she got. Scrolling through her phone with her head
lowered, she did not realize that someone was walking her way. Turning around a corner, she bumped
into a man.
Stunned by the impact, Hilda lifted her head, only to see a man with a cap on. The man did not speak a
word and simply walked past her.
“What’s with the attitude? Doesn’t he know how to apologize?”
Hilda picked up her phone that had fallen on the floor while grumbling a fewints. When she
turned around, the man had already vanished from her sight.
After the man walked past Hilda, he came to thest room on the corridor and knocked on the door.
rissa, who was on a video call with Matthew, was startled by this abrupt knock.
Who is it at this hour? I guess it must be Hilda.
However, the moment she opened her door, she realized that it was not Hilda, but a handsome young
man.
It didn’t take long for rissa to recognize him to be the third male actor in the film. She did not know
him very well, but she knew that he was recruited because of his rtionship with the sponsor. His
acting was mediocre, but he did have quite a lot of scandals around him. He seemed to be quite
famous among teenagers as well but not really a big hit.
Before rissa could react, the man curled his lips into a smile. “Ms. Quigley, I have something to
discuss with you. May Ie in?”
“Huh?”
While rissa was still stunned, he had already let himself inside her room.
The moment she came back to her sense, she noticed the door had been shut behind him.
At that instance, her gut instinct told her that something was wrong. She immediately stepped to open
the door while telling the man off.
“Get out, Lucas. I didn’t agree to let you in. Get out right now!”
She tried to open the door but was blocked by Lucas. At the same time, he was grinning with a sly
expression.
“Ms. Quigley, please keep your voice down. I’m just trying to seek some advice from you. Don’t be so
heartless, hmm?”
His tone sounded utterly sensual as he gradually stepped closer toward rissa.
“Lucas, how dare you? Get out now, or I’ll call the cops.”
“Come on, Ms. Quigley, there’s no need to be like this. My intention is pure. Please don’t reject me.
You’re so beautiful. I bet you must have a beautiful heart too, right?”
As he spoke, he took off his coat, revealing the white t-shirt and a pair of tight jeans underneath.
rissa could see his sturdy figure. Presumably, most women would not be able to resist such a sight.
However, rissa waspletely disgusted by Lucas’ sensual gaze.
She stepped back in a panic while forcing out a calm front. She tried to recollect herself while figuring
out a way to escape from this situation.
“Lucas, I’m warning you. Leave. I don’t care how others treat you, but I’m a married woman. Besides,
you know who my husband is. If you still want to survive in this industry, get out now. Or else you’re
only bringing infamy and ruin upon yourself.”
Lucas was stunned momentarily before his expression turned awkward. Evidently, this was different
from what he anticipated.
Based on their interactions during the day, he felt that rissa had been extremely friendly toward him.
He assumed that even if rissa did not ept his goodwill, she would not reject harshly.
To be precise, he had never encountered any woman that would reject him, especially those with
power and status.
In order to gain the fame he wanted, he did not mind offering himself and ying into the unspoken
rules in showbiz. Andpared to those powerful olddies he encountered, rissa was considered
a jackpot with such a perfect look and body.
In the end, despite the fact that he had only joined the for a few days, he could not wait any longer to
offer himself up to rissa.
However, rissa’s reaction at the moment clearly shocked and disappointed him.
But a momentter, Lucas’s lips curled into another smile. “Ms. Quigley, to be honest, no one knows
I’m here tonight. I am extra careful as I’m aware of your status. So as long as you don’t tell anyone, no
one will know about us.”
“Lucas… one more word from you, and you will lose all you have tomorrow morning.”
rissa’s resentful gaze made Lucas’s heart skipped a beat.
Picking up his coat, he turned and was about to walk out of the room.
Just when his hand touched the doorknob, however, he suddenly changed his mind. Swiftly locking the
door, he turned to rissa with his typical confident smile again. It’s toote now. Since I’m already
here, I will be in trouble even if I leave now. If that’s so, I can’t give up now.
