You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 238

Offering us help?

Suddenly, Mimi recalled that some time ago, there were rumors circulating about Shermaine. One of the rumors was that the latter used Matthew to hype up her popularity and even claimed that she was Matthew’s fiancée.

But now, it turned out that Clarissa was Matthew’s fiancée. Mimi guessed that Shermaine was trying to target Clarissa.

However, Jacob and Gloria knew nothing about that.

Before Mimi could speak, Gloria started to grumble about Clarrisa.

“Yes! I think so too! Clarissa, that brat! I am her aunt. But she doesn’t even care about us. We want to let everyone know how cruel she is to her family. She is rich and even going to marry into a wealthy family, but she is unwilling to give us a hand. Damn that brat …”

Gloria bared her curses at Clarissa and spoke ill of the latter in front of Shermaine.

“Hold on! Did you say Clarissa made friends with gangsters when she was young?”

“Yeah. She looks obedient but actually…”

Gloria exaggerated Clarrisa’s behavior, and her narration was getting more and more outrageous. At the same time, Shermaine was excited upon hearing the stories.

Mimi didn’t stop Gloria because she knew that Clarissa would never reconcile with them. Now, Shermaine wants to give Clarissa a hard time. Of course, I must grab the opportunity to cooperate with the former to teach Clarissa a lesson. However, I won’t be her cat’s paw unless she offers us some benefits!

“Mom, have some water. You must be thirsty after talking for so long.”

At that, Mimi forcibly put a glass of water into Gloria’s hand. After taking a sip, the latter still wanted to say something, but she did not dare to because Mimi glared at her fiercely.

Moreover, as the head of the family, Jacob should voice his opinion first.

“Ms. Smallwood, do you have a grudge against Clarissa?”

Upon hearing that, Shermaine smiled. “Not really. I just can’t stand the way she treated you. But of course, if you don’t want me to help you, just forget about it. Serves me right for poking my nose into your business.”

Having said that, Shermaine purposely put on a carefree and indifferent look as if she was going to leave.

Upon seeing that, Mimi panicked. Although Shermaine is now a loathsome existence, she is rich and powerful in showbiz. I believe that she can help me.

Hence, she immediately replied, “Ms. Smallwood, please don’t get us wrong. My parents didn’t mean to offend you or anything. But we haven’t thought it through. After all, we are Clarissa’s family.”

Hearing that, Shermaine shot her a smile and said, “Haven’t thought it through? Fine. I’m leaving now.”

Shermaine got up and prepared to leave. A moment later, she seemed to have thought of something. Looking up, she turned to Mimi and said, “The password of that phone is six consecutive six. You can have it. It’s just a cheap gadget anyway.”

With that, Shermaine let out a smile and left.

Actually, Mimi panicked and wanted the former to stay, but she managed to suppress her emotions and did not go after the former at that point in time.

After that, Jacob and Gloria stared at Mimi while the latter furrowed her brows and started to analyze the whole situation.

“Mimi, what shall we do now? I think Ms. Smallwood really wants to help us. Clarissa is not reliable at all. She is such a rich person, but she is so stingy and even unwilling to support us financially. I think she won’t care about us too in the future. Her character is just the same as that mom of hers! She doesn’t even care about her own blood relatives,” said Jacob.

Gloria chimed in, “Yes, that’s right. Mimi, I think Ms. Smallwood is nice to us. It’s quite good to let her help us.”

Mimi thought longer than her parents. Shermaine is just the same as us. I think she wants to make things difficult for Clarissa too. But, it’s her idea to cooperate with us. So, I think we will be benefited from this!

When the thought crossed her mind, she smiled confidently.

“Dad, Mom, since Clarissa is getting on our nerves, and now we finally got a chance to fix her, why don’t we cooperate with Ms. Smallwood to make things difficult for her? Although Clarissa is rich, she doesn’t even lend us a helping hand when we are having difficulties. So, why don’t we ruin her instead?”

A sympathetic look flashed past Gloria’s eyes upon hearing that, but Jacob immediately answered, “That’s great! Clarissa has no regard for us anyway. Oh, by the way, what do we have to do? How would Ms. Smallwood help us? She’s so rich. Can she offer us some benefits?”

Mimi let out a chuckle upon hearing Jacob’s words. “Of course. She needs a favor from us too. Her reputation is in tatters now. She must hate Clarissa to the core.”

“What’s the matter? Do you mean that there’s bad blood between Clarissa and Ms. Smallwood?”

Mimi grinned and explained the grudges between Clarissa and Shermaine, which was related to Matthew.

Upon hearing that, Gloria said, “I knew it! That brat is the same as her mom. None of them is any good. Both of them are sluts who love stealing other peoples’ men. Back then, her mom… “
