You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 221

Clarissa knew that look in his eyes all too well. Hence, she quickly reached out and pushed against his face that was moving closer to hers.

“Hey, cut it out! We still need to head back to the office, you know? I’ll head home right now if you don’t stop fooling around!”

Matthew let out a sigh and leaned against his seat as he tried to calm himself down.

After a brief pause, he grabbed her hand and gave it a kiss before driving back to the office.

Feeling bored, Clarissa went to take a nap in Matthew’s break room.

She was then later woken up by a shrill voice from outside.

Still in a bit of a daze, Clarissa sat upright and stared at the door as she listened to what the woman was saying.

“Now I see why you were immune to all my efforts throughout those years… You disappoint me, Matthew… Acting all coquettish with that pretty face of hers is all she can do! I can’t believe you would date someone like that!”

“That’s my business, Michelle. You’re crossing the line here.”

“Honestly, I’m feeling a sense of relief along with my disappointment in you. I used to think that I wasn’t good enough for you, but now I know it’s your taste in women that’s the problem. I think I’m able to move on now, Matthew.”

Matthew kept quiet while Clarissa held a hand over her mouth to stop herself from laughing out loud.

Michelle might’ve been rude to me and all, but she doesn’t seem that bad of a person now that I think about it… I mean, at least she isn’t shamelessly clinging to Matthew!

“Still, could you tell me what you like about such women? Is it because they make you feel great in bed? All that sexual gratification is temporary, Matthew! It won’t last long! Don’t tell me you’ve already had several girlfriends like her…”

There was a strong hint of disappointment and confusion in Michelle’s tone when she said that.

I bet Michelle must be visualizing images of Matthew sleeping with other women right now! Clarissa thought to herself.

“I’ll take your silence as a yes, then… As much as I am disappointed in your choices, you are still an undeniably excellent person when it comes to your work. I shall remain in the company, but I will keep everything strictly professional from here on.”

“Very well,” Matthew replied coldly.

The room fell silent, and Clarissa thought Michelle was about to leave his office, but she spoke up again all of a sudden, “Mr. Tyson, as your subordinate, I advise you to put an end to this unhealthy obsession of yours. You’re not a young man anymore, remember? While I won’t comment on your personal kinks, you really should pull yourself together for the sake of the company! Don’t want you to end up…”

However, Matthew cut her off before she could finish, “That’s enough, Michelle.”

“I just hope you understand what I said, Mr. Tyson,” Michelle said after a brief pause.

Right then, Clarissa came out of the break room when she heard Michelle leave.

Matthew looked at her and noticed that she was desperately holding back her laughter.

With Michelle gone, Clarissa no longer had to hold it in and burst out laughing in his face. “Pffft… Hahahahahaha…”

Oh, how the tables have turned! Matthew was just laughing at me before we came back to the office earlier, and now I’m the one laughing at him instead!

She made no attempts to control herself and laughed so hard that she ended up kneeling on the floor, clutching her aching tummy with one hand and smacking the floor with the other.

Meanwhile, Matthew could only frown at her helplessly as he watched from behind his desk.

Had it not been for her aching tummy, he would’ve ignored her completely.

Eventually, he couldn’t stand seeing her in pain and scooped her into his arms. “Is it really that funny? It’s your man that she’s insulting, you know?”

“Haha… I… Hahaha…”

Clarissa was laughing so hard that she couldn’t even talk.

“Hey, stop laughing already! Isn’t it a good thing that she’s backing off on her own?” Matthew said while patting her on the back.

Clarissa mustered all of her might to keep her laughing under control as she wiped the tears from her eyes.
