You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 147

“How can you speak like that, you silly girl? I was just saying it. It’s not that I truly believe in it.”

Ellie didn’t believe her. Considering the years that Grandma has loved and cared for Shermaine, I doubt that she would really go hard on her.

Even if Grandma rejects her now, it’s just a matter of time she’d start liking Shermaine again. That was the biggest fear Ellie had.

She said to Margaret, “It doesn’t matter even if you accept her, Uncle Matt will never marry Shermaine. If you continue to do what you did in the past, I’m sure Uncle Matt will have fall out with you.”

Ellie’s strong words worried Margaret, causing her expression to dim.

“That’s enough. Do you plan to keep criticizing me non-stop?”

“We aren’t finding fault with you. We just don’t want you to be deceived by Shermaine. Do you think that she’s a saint? She’s actually a devil in disguise!”

“All right, all right, I know what to do now.” Feeling embarrassed, Margaret was getting rather upset with her granddaughter’s comments.

With that, Ellie sulked and zipped her mouth.

Deep down in her heart, she wanted to proclaimed the existence of Clare to her grandmother.

However, she knew that she would only create more troubles for Clare and Matthew if others were to know about it.

Therefore, Ellie could only keep it as a secret for now.

In the evening, the Tysons were all present for dinner. As usual, Margaret dominated the conversation with her typical topics.

No one interrupted her. Matthew, on the other hand, ignored her completely.

Seeing that nobody responded to her, Margaret held a grudge in her heart and made her own conclusion.

When the men were chit-chatting, their topics revolved around business and politics.

“Matthew, I didn’t expect you to collaborate with the Shaws.”

There were some interactions between the Tysons and the Shaws. Occasionally, conflicts would arise between the two families.

This time, Matthew worked with the Shaws in order to teach the Wynters a lesson.

Matthias was generally not too bothered by it. It’s such a pity for Matthew to venture into business. He would yield better success had he followed my footsteps into politics. In fact, he would surpass my achievements.

“Yes, I bumped into Thomas Shaw, so we talked about it. It’s all for a win-win situation.”

George remained composed, allowing his son to make decisions based on his own discretion.

Regardless of its outcome, the choice was his to make. Besides, he also had faith in both his sons to handle everything well.

When George and Margaret retired for the night, Matthew checked the time and then played with his phone.

Matthias let out a faint smile. “Patched up?”

Matthew looked at his elder brother.

“When you looked so sullen days ago, many thought that you were down because of the issue involving Shermaine. I felt otherwise. You’re always very confident in all that you do, so that wasn’t as big a deal to have affected you. The only exception is probably your relationship.”

Matthew smirked and acknowledged. “Indeed.”

Although Matthias had suspected so, hearing it directly from Matthew revealed the big picture. Not only did his acknowledgment confirms his relationship with that lady, but it also recognizes the fact that an indifferent man like Matthew is now affected by the opposite sex!

Even heroes had a soft spot for the charms of a beautiful woman. Matthew was no exception.

“Seems like you truly like her.”

Keeping quiet, Matthew did not deny the statement.

“Well, I still have to say this. Her family background isn’t comparable to ours and you know that our mother won’t see her as the most ideal partner for you. Be prepared for the upcoming hardships if this is what you want.”

“Yes.” Another short reply by Matthew.

So, he’s admitted to the relationship?

After Matthias had connected the dots, he could not hold back his laughter. What a surprising outcome!

Soon, Matthew left the Tyson’s residence. Later that night, Matthias was reading on the bed while his wife, Yuliana, walked out of the bathroom. Drying her hair, she asked, “Did Matthew not inform you about his deal with the Shaws? Though it doesn’t bring you any disadvantage, but where’s the courtesy?

“This is already in the past. How many times do you want to nag about this?”

“Do you even care if I continue to complain?”

“What is there to care about? Matthew should decide for his own marriage. We can’t expect him to manipulate his marriage in order to help us, can we? What does it make of me if I do that?”

“That’s not what I mean. I just feel it is unfair to you. Over the years, you two have been developing your own careers independently and we’ve never had any conflict. This time, Mom came meddling in Matthew’s affairs and he kicks a big fuss about it. Consequently, you’re the one who’s affected by this chaos. I’m just trying to set things right.”
