You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 2

Clarissa had heard about the famous Skylight Restaurant in D City, but she never got the honor to taste the food here as a reservation had to be made one month in advance in order to dine in.

It was all thanks to Ellie that she could have the privilege this time.

Clarissa knew her friend came from a pretty well-to-do family, but it was today did she finally realized how wealthy the latter was.

After the meal, Ellie went to use the bathroom while she waited in the lobby.

When Matthew made his way down the stairs, he knew at first glance that the person standing there was the young lady from last night.

Clarissa was decked out in a strapless yellow dress that showed off her fair skin, slender neck, and delicate collarbone.

 

The memories of the little seductress in the bathtub last night came flooding back.

Matthew’s eyes darkened in a slight glint, and there was no telling what he was thinking at that moment.

 

“Hey, Matt, what are you looking at?”

Standing behind Matthew was a hippy in a flashy pink shirt and white slacks.

“Yo! Who’s that pretty lady there?”

Matthew ignored the man behind him and continued to make his way down.

Clarissa was looking at her phone when she inadvertently looked up and met Matthew’s eyes.

Still clothed in a white shirt with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows and a pair of suit pants that accentuated his tall and slender figure, he held his coat in one hand while putting the other in his pocket. He looked even more mature and suave.

Clarissa’s heart thumped, but the man looked away as though he didn’t recognize her.

After a moment of hesitation, she steeled herself and caught up to him, though she made sure to keep her distance.

Matthew was now standing under a tree, squinting his eyes at her as he whipped out a cigarette and took a drag of smoke.

Clarissa stood frozen on the spot, her face red underneath the sunlight.

Watching as the young lady stood foolishly under the sun, Matthew creased his brows and beckoned to her to come over with his finger.

Clarissa was a little surprised. It wasn’t until she took a deep breath did she edge her way to the shade.
