You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 177

The two women were obviously confronting each other with invisible retaliations.

Shermaine was confident due to her close relationship with Margaret, and she had known Matthew for a long time. However, her insidious deed on the Tysons previously could not be easily forgotten by everyone.On the other hand, Margaret obviously really liked Sienna at the moment, so she would be glad if Sienna could develop a relationship with Matthew.

Both Shermaine and Sienna were actually standing on the same ground; none of them stood a better chance than the other in terms of becoming Margaret’s daughter-in-law.

Clarissa’s figure suddenly flashed across Sienna’s mind.

Her instinct told her that Shermaine could be good at playing mind games, although she had not really dealt with her yet. She could not help but wonder how Shermaine would react if she happened to know about Matthew’s relationship with Clarissa.

Needless to say, she would not remain calm like how she was behaving at the moment if she were to know about that.

When it was about time for dinner, there was still no sign of Matthew.

Margaret called Matthew and ordered him to come home for dinner, yet he rejected at once.

“What? Matthew Tyson, I want you to be home now! We’ve guests at home. Sienna has waited so long for you. How can you treat your girlfriend like that?”

Margaret was talking on the phone with Matthew openly in front of the others. As she was pretty sure that Sienna and Matthew were in a relationship at the moment, she just naturally addressed Sienna as his girlfriend.

However, both Sienna and Yuliana knew about the truth. Thinking of the possibility that Margaret would know about the truth at any moment, both of them felt their hearts skipped a beat.

There was a change in their expressions for just a split second, yet Shermaine managed to catch a glimpse.

Meanwhile, Matthew had apparently told Margaret something over the phone.

“What do you mean? Matthew, you and Sienna…”

“I-I thought both of you are in a relationship? How could you treat her like that?”

Margaret paused abruptly as if her words were cut off by Matthew from the other side.

She remained silent for quite a while as her expression changed gradually. Everyone was curious to know what Matthew told her. When she finally hung up the phone, there was a grim look on her face.

After recollecting herself, Margaret turned to face both Sienna and Yuliana again. However, there was already a slight difference in her tone, indicating that there was a change in her feeling toward Sienna.

“Sienna, Matthew seems to be really occupied at work so he’s not coming back for dinner. It’s all right, let’s have dinner without him. Sigh… look at these men. Since none of them is home for dinner, we don’t have to keep any dishes for them as well. They are all of the same kind and really annoy me.”

Sienna was becoming a bit embarrassed. She had no idea who Margaret was referring to, and could not help feeling that she might be among those who annoyed her.

Yuliana was actually thinking of explaining to Margaret, but she did not wish to let Shermaine overhear that. Therefore, she could only choose another ideal time to do so.

At the moment, Shermaine kept glancing at Sienna with a gleeful smile on her face.

Sienna sensed it, yet she remained calm as if she was unaware of that.

During their dinner, Shermaine brought up the topic of how close she was with Matthew in their childhood. Margaret indirectly reminisced about the memorable moments of those days and chatted cheerfully with Shermaine. Sienna seemed to be neglected, as Margaret did not spare any glance at her.

As Sienna was overwhelmed by bitterness and disappointment, the sumptuous dishes seemed to be tasteless for her. She excused herself first right after dinner.

When Yuliana was sending Sienna off at the main gate, she grabbed the opportunity to explain to Sienna and comforted her.

“Shermaine is a scheming and manipulative girl. Don’t take her words too seriously. Even if she has known Matthew a lot earlier, he will never fall for her too. If not, she wouldn’t have wasted so much time and keeps playing mind games in order to win over his heart.”

Sienna nodded and replied, “Yuliana, I understand about this. I can sense that she’s apparently having something in her mind too. Yet it can’t be denied that Old Mrs. Tyson really likes her.”

Yuliana explained in embarrassment, “It’s a special case. Shermaine has been really close to the Tysons since young. She is like a member of the Tysons as well. My mom-in-law just treats her like her own daughter.”

“I see.” Sienna only replied briefly, feeling even more discouraged.

Later, she left the Tyson residence without saying anything, as she was not keen on hearing anything about Shermaine again.

Shermaine also left not long after that.

She felt relieved after meeting Sienna and scoffed within herself. I thought this woman would be a great threat to me. Anyway, she didn’t manage to catch Matt’s eye, too. I might still have the chance to win his heart again!

The young heiress of the Grandes? So what? No doubt she has a better family background than me, yet she still can’t win over Matt’s heart!

Her mind sank into deep thought as she was planning on how she could let Matthew fall for her.

Matthew had just hung up his phone. Clarissa was lying with her head on his lap, and there was a hot pack in her arms. Based on how he replied while talking on the phone a while ago, she could guess that the Tysons intended to match him up with Sienna.

Clarissa muttered at him mockingly, “Looks like your market value is not as good as it seems. They are so desperate to match you up with other women!”

“What did you say?”

Matthew raised his brows as he asked abruptly. His long fingers caressed her cheeks and moved lower to her delicate neck.

Feeling intimidated by his fingers, Clarissa smiled in embarrassment and tried to appease him.

“Haha… I’m just joking. Mr. Tyson, I’m sure you have many secret admirers. As long as you gesture to the women, all of them would surely line up for you like bees attracted to the flowers.”

Matthew was apparently not the least bit pleased with the sudden twist in her words.

He squinted as his fingertips rubbed gently on Clarissa’s neck. To her, this was a rather intimidating body language. It was as if her neck could be easily broken by his fingers at any moment.

Clarissa grabbed hold of his fingers instantly and moved them away from her neck.

“Don’t scare me! It’s not funny!”

Matthew flipped his hand and gripped her fingers. “It’s quite funny to me.”

“It’s not funny to me at all.”
