You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 115

Ellie spent a long time glaring at Clarissa’s arm.

As she was about to say something, Clarissa cut her off. “I’m okay. I even informed you as soon as I got back here. You don’t need to worry so much. The only thing that’s troublesome for me is not being able to move my arm as much. But luckily, I can still use my other arm. See? I’m not crippled.”

“You-”

“I’m fine!” Clarissa interrupted Ellie again before smiling naturally at her.

Ellie let out a long sigh and took a seat.

“You sure your arm is fine? To be honest, I’m still a bit perturbed. How about this? I’ll arrange a meeting with an orthopedist at the hospital later,” suggested Ellie.

“That’s enough. There’s no need to get so worked up about this. Trust me, it’s only a bone fracture. It’s my arm so I would know,” assured Clarissa.

“No, you must listen to me,” Ellie insisted.

With no other choice, Clarissa was dragged by Ellie to the hospital. Damon also tagged along with them as they met up at the hospital. After seeing the head doctor of orthopedics, the vise that had been gripping their chests finally loosened a little as the doctor confirmed that Clarissa’s injury wasn’t severe.

“Are you two satisfied now? You guys are just overreacting.”

Peeved, Clarissa even blurted out profanities as she was being escorted by Damon and Ellie out of the hospital.

“We are not overreacting. The well-being of your arms and hands is of utmost importance for a writer as famous as you. So of course we would be more cautious,” Damon responded solemnly.

Ellie gave him a big thumbs up, agreeing with his statement.

Clarissa on the other hand, shook her head sullenly.

After that, the two of them sent Clarissa back to her apartment.

Damon drove off after arriving at the apartment while Ellie followed Clarissa up to her room to help her unpack her luggage.

Sitting on the bed, Clarissa watched as Ellie opened her wardrobe. There were a few men’s clothing hanging inside of it. Despite seeing that, the two of them were reticent about it.

“Clare, you can finally get some rest now and let your arm heal. You don’t need to bother with the crew anymore right? Just take it easy and forget about the crew for now. By the way, I’m moving in to live with you for the next few days so that it will be easier for me to take care of you. Oh, I almost forgot. I also had someone prepare bone soup for you to help with the recovery of your arm. And also…”

“Ellie, I can’t seem to contact Uncle Matthew.”

Before Ellie was done nagging, Clarissa interrupted her. Ellie was stunned in place after hearing what Clarissa said.

“Yesterday when I came back here, I gave him a call and even sent him a message, but he didn’t respond to either one. Do you have any idea where he is? Are you able to contact him?” Clarissa added on.

Livid, Ellie turned around and retorted, “Why are you trying to contact him? In moments like this you’re still thinking about him? Are you mad or something?”

Clarissa was awfully calm after being confronted by her.

“I’m trying to contact him so that I can officially break up with him,” Clarissa replied apathetically.

Ellie’s anger quickly deflated like a punctured balloon.

“If I really can’t get in touch with him, I’ll just break up with him through text. I’ve already sent a message telling him we should break up back when I was in the hospital,” said Clarissa.

Crouching on the ground, Ellie continued rummaging through Clarissa’s luggage only to find a few clothes in it.

After a while, she uttered, “He accompanied Shermaine to Moranta to get treatment. They took off yesterday and might still be very busy. That’s maybe why he didn’t reply to you.”

But there’s also a good chance that he simply didn’t want to reply to me, right?

Clarissa was talking to herself in her head.

“Was Shermaine’s injury serious? I was in a daze when it all happened, so I don’t exactly remember how badly hurt she was.”

Since she went to Moranta to get herself treated, her injury must’ve been quite serious.

“I don’t know much and I don’t intend to care. Anyway, she went straight to Moranta yesterday. That shameless woman also insisted Uncle Matt to accompany her. Even my Grandma, she-”

Ellie suddenly stopped halfway through her sentence.

“Nevermind, you don’t need to know about this. Since you’ve broken up with him now, there’s no need for you to care about it anymore.”

Yeah, you’re right. We’ve already broken up.

Clarissa pondered for a while and decided to leave her relationship with Matthew behind once and for all.

Although she didn’t break up with Matthew in person, she was glad it went like this instead.

Ellie helped Clarissa up from her bed and carefully assisted her to the bathroom. Upon closing the bathroom door, Clarissa’s phone, which was on top of her bed, suddenly rang.

Ellie took a look at it and saw that it was Matthew who was calling her.

She instinctively took Clarissa’s phone outside and answered it there.

After Clarissa got out of the bathroom, she saw that Ellie was packing her clothes back into her luggage.

“What are you doing?” she asked.

“Now that you’ve broken up with him, you shouldn’t live here anymore. I know you’ll be too shy to live with me so I’ve found you another apartment to live in through Damon’s help. The apartment is already ready for you to move in. Since you don’t have many belongings here, we should take all of them there now.”

Clarissa paused for two seconds before smiling at Ellie. Surprisingly, she didn’t deplore Ellie’s proposal.

“Okay.”

The two of them quickly left. In the meantime, Damon was waiting for them at the new apartment he found.
