    You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 336


    Catherine sounded like she was in a dilemma over the phone.


    “re, actually, it’s your Aunt Gloria who needs your help. Even though I don’t want to see her as well,


    it is a matter of life and death, so…”


    Before Catherine could finish her sentence, rissa could already hear Gloria bawling on the other


    end of the line.


    “Oh! My poor daughter! ry, I’ll kneel down to you if you would save my daughter. Please save Mimi!


    Please forgive me and help me this once…”


    rissa frowned. Even without seeing her in person, rissa could imagine the way Gloria was


    kicking up a fuss.


    rissa said to her grandmother, “Did she force you to do this? If you don’t feelfortable telling me


    now, just get Jenny to chase her away. I will let Jenny know. But if you really feel like helping her, you


    can let me know as well. As long as it is within my means, I will definitely help.”


    Catherine understood what rissa meant and let out a sigh.


    “re, let’s just help her if it’s possible. However, I am quite certain that she did not tell me the whole


    truth. So, if in the midst of helping her, you realize something does not seem right, you can stop


    anytime. Feel free to exercise your own judgment.”


    “Sure. Pass the phone to her and let her tell me what exactly happened, then.”


    Catherine passed the phone to Gloria immediately. When Gloria took over the phone and was about to


    start crying again, rissa shut her up with one sentence before she could do that.


    “If you start crying, I might not have the patience to listen to your story.”


    Gloria kept quiet at once after hearing that.


    “Just get straight to the point.”


    Sounding slightly timid, Gloria started speaking softly, “Mimi was captured but she’s innocent! Even


    though she can be quite selfish, she does not have any malicious intent…”


    “Be clear. Who captured her?”


    A sense of guilt rose in Gloria’s chest and she answered in an even weaker voice, “The p-police.”


    “What did you say?”


    “The p-police.”


    rissa sighed when she heard what her aunt said.


    Gloria rushed to exin, “ry, I’m sure the police made a mistake. My dear Mimi would nevermit


    any crimes. I’m sure of that. She’s such a good kid, she won’t…”


    “If you’re so sure that she’s innocent, why should you be afraid? The police won’t wrongly use


    anyone. You should just wait for them to investigate.”


    “No no, ry, Mimi is definitely innocent. But the people in there will hurt her. Besides, she… she…”


    Just then, rissa saw Matthew carrying Damian downstairs. Apparently, the father-son pair had


    already finished talking about their secret.


    Running out of patience, she said straightforwardly, “If you want me to save Mimi, you have to tell me


    the truth. Otherwise, I have no time to waste with you.”


    Gloria hesitated and did not speak for a long time. As such, rissa ended the call without waiting for


    her any longer.


    “Mommy… Mommy… Are you upset?”


    Damian wriggled out of his father’s arms and ran toward rissa, who was sitting on the couch.


    Climbing onto the sofa and into his mother’s arms, the boy stroked rissa’s face lovingly.


    rissa smiled and pouted beforeining, “Yeah, I’m upset. Because my darling didn’t share his


    secret with me. I feel so left out. That’s why I’m upset.”


    Damian felt bad at once and patted rissa’s shoulders gently before putting his chubby arms around


    her neck.


    “Mommy, don’t be angry,” the boy said before nting a kiss on her cheeks in a perfunctory manner,


    acting just like a teenager.


    “There, I’ll give you a kiss so you can’t be upset anymore.”


    In the end, Damian still did not let rissa in on the secret.


    rissa looked toward Matthew, but the smile on the man’s face clearly told her that he had no


    intention of getting involved.


    As such, rissa had no choice but to give up knowing. She hugged her son tightly and gave him a


    forceful kiss on his cheek. The boy chuckled and started ying with her.


    “Daddy, Daddy! Help! Help me…”


    rissa pretended to be a witch and started teasing Damian while Damian pretended to be really


    frightened and started screaming for help. He even started giving instructions to rissa on what to


    say and telling her how he would react. Not only was he engrossed in ying his part as an actor, but


    the boy was also trying to be a director, briefing the adults on what to do.


    However, after just a while, the family’s y was interrupted as rissa’s phone rang again.


    She took a nce at the number and picked up.


    It was Catherine on the line as Gloria had probably known that rissa would not be willing to answer


    her call, given the way their previous conversation ended.


    “ry, I’ve managed to find out what happened. It was Mimi’s boyfriend who was suspected of


    committing the crime. She was also under suspicion and arrested only because she was close to him.


    Mimi doesn’t really know anything about it. Perhaps, she is really innocent, so…”


    rissa understood what her grandmother wanted to say and replied, “I’ll get Matthew to ask around.”


    Catherine kept quiet at the mention of Matthew. Since the man was brought into the conversation,


    Catherine knew that she should not speak any further.


    In fact, all of them knew very well what the truth was.


    “If she’s really innocent, this will be thest time we are helping her. However, if it turns out that she’s


    guilty, we won’t bother about her anymore.”


    rissa let out a sigh after the call ended. Then, she rested her chin casually on the couch’s armrest


    and looked at Matthew. Imitating his mother, Damian also let out a sigh and rested on rissa.


    Matthew, who was seated across the mother-son pair, smiled affectionately at his family.


    “Hubby… I need your help.”


    “Hubby… I need your help.” Damian echoed her words cheekily.


    Amused, rissa let out a chuckle before turning around to face her son and said, “He’s my hubby, not


    yours.”


    Damian giggled and said, ““He’s my hubby, not yours.”


    “You little rascal!”


    “You little rascal!”


    rissa immediately turned around, and wearing a pitiful expression, she threw herself into Matthew’s


    arms. “Hubby, Damian is bullying me,” she whined.


    Damian rushed toward his father in small steps and ran into his arms as well, saying, “Hubby, Mommy


    is bullying me.”


    Speechless, Matthew hugged them in one arm each and looked at the two people he loved most


    before nting consecutive kisses on their cheeks.


    rissa smiled as she and Matthew locked eyes.


    Finally, that was a moment that could not be interrupted by Damian.


    The boy could only stare with his big eyes while his parents exchange loving nces at each other. Of


    course, he did not fully understand how romantic love between adults was like yet.


    As such, he did not hesitate to disrupt their loving moment.


    “Mommy, was it great-grandma who called just now? I miss her so much.”


    rissa stroked her son’s face and replied, “Just wait for a while more. We will visit her during the


    festive season.”


    “Can’t we go see her now?”


    “Haven’t you been video calling great-grandma?”


    “But I like it when great-grandma hold me in her arms.”


    rissa gave a peck on the boy’s forehead and replied, “The festive season ising real soon.


    Alright now, let’s go wash up and prepare to go to bed. I have a new story to tell you…”


    After getting up from Matthew’s arms, rissa carried Damian upstairs.


    When rissa finally went back to her room after the boy fell asleep, Matthew was alreadyying on


    the bed. Seeing that, rissa climbed onto the bed at once and settled in Matthew’s arms.


    He stroked her cheeks gently while asking in his deep and husky voice, “Is there something you want


    to tell me?”


    “Yup, Mimi was arrested by the police because of her association with a man who hasmitted a


    crime. He’s probably her lover. As for whether she was personally involved in the crime, I’m not sure.


    But at least, it’s possible that she wasn’t.”


    Clearly, rissa was not very willing to take a stand. She pursed her lips and continued, “But I’m quite


    sure that given Mimi’s character, it’s highly unlikely that she’spletely kept in the dark about the


    crime. After all, she’s greedy, vain, enjoys stirring up trouble…”


    It was a rare asion to hear rissa speaking ill of others.


    Matthew found her behavior rather adorable as he had never expected her to badmouth anyone.


    “Why are you smiling?” Feeling puzzled, rissa asked when she noticed the strange smile on


    Matthew’s face.


    “It’s nothing. I just think that my dear re is too adorable.”


    After he replied, he lowered his head and kissed rissa on her lips. The two of them were intertwined


    in a deep kiss for a while before rissa pushed him away as she had serious matters to talk to him


    about.


    “Grandma wants me to help. If Mimi is really innocent, let’s just help with her release as soon as


    possible. If she’s indeed guilty, we will wash our hands of it. So, Hubby, can I entrust this task to you?


    Please?”


    Matthew let out a deep chuckle and replied, “Sure. I’ll do anything my wife asks me to do.”


    After the matter was settled, the two of them wasted no time doing the thing couples usually did in bed


    at night.


    Matthew was highly efficient in handling the matter which rissa had asked him to help with, making


    progress the next day.


    rissa arrived at Tyson Corporation after leaving the publisher’s premises.


    Just as she reached the underground parking lot and was about to head upstairs, she saw Avery, who


    was ashen-faced. The woman was carrying a box filled with her belongings and seemed like she had


    been fired from thepany.


    Even though rissa was rather shocked, she did not ask any questions. She merely walked past


    Avery, keeping an indifferent expression, and entered the lift.


    As for Avery, she stood outside the lift, looking even worse than a while ago.


    She was furious and jealous at the same time. Avery was so full of hatred that she wished she could


    vent her frustrations on rissa. However, she understood that rissa was Matthew’s wife and one


    word from that woman would be enough to destroy her future anywhere else. If that was what Avery


    wanted, she would not hesitate to take revenge on rissa.


    Obviously, Avery did not dare to do that.


    No matter how resentful she was, the truth was that she was an employee who was easily dispensable.

    Meanwhile, when rissa reached the top floor, she saw Matthew, who told her what he found out


    about Mimi.


    Not surprised by what she heard, rissa replied, “She brought all these upon herself. Even though


    she did not take part in the crime, taking drugs is also a serious offense. We shouldn’t bother ourselves


    with helping her anymore.”


    After that, she took a look at Matthew, who was looking nonchnt. Suddenly, rissa let out a


    chuckle and walked over to him coquettishly before leaning on his table and said, “Matthew, should I


    give you a reward?”


    The man cocked his brows and replied, “Why?”


    rissa blinked her eyes yfully and replied, “I guess it’s because you love me so much…”
