You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 249

Matthew Tyson, the president of Tyson Corporation, singing as he proposed to his fiancée on her elaborate birthday banquet.

That alone was enough to be the headlines of the newspapers and tabloids for the next few weeks, should someone leak the details of Clarissa’s birthday banquet to the public.

Unlike the members of the public, those at the venue that day were already mind-blown by how romantic and incredible the proposal was.

She must be the happiest woman in the world!

In the eyes of the party guests, Clarissa was a talented beauty who had the perfect fiancé, not even to mention how in love they were with each other.

What had just unfolded before them seemed like one of those universal ideal goals in life coming into realization. The ladies at the banquet could not even hide their envy anymore. A man like Matthew was simply too difficult to find.

On the other hand, the fellow gentlemen at the scene also had mixed emotions. They were impressed by the entire proposal, but they were also scratching their heads in slight confusion. Wasn’t Matthew Tyson known to be cold and uptight?

Does he have a twin or something?

“Matt, you’re totally ruining the market for us! I knew that you play the piano, but singing? And you sing so well! We’ve been friends for more than thirty years. Why didn’t you tell me about this?”

Yarick genuinely looked as if he had suffered a huge blow.

After all, he had believed all this while that even though he was not as handsome or successful as Matthew, he was better at charming the ladies at the very least.

Who would have known that a “cold-hearted” man like him knew all the moves to steal a woman’s heart?

How am I supposed to appeal the ladies now?

Yarick was definitely the only one having those thoughts at the scene.

Jeremy, who had gone by the title of “D City’s Number One Ladies’ Man” for ages, could not help but concede defeat to Matthew after everything that happened that day.

As for Ellie, rather than feeling jealous of Clarissa for having a man like Matthew, she felt rather impressed and told herself that she would not accept any marriage proposals unless her future husband came up with something as good as what her uncle did.

Watching the passionate couple locked in a tight embrace as if they were the only ones in the room, Ellie shook her head and sighed.

“I’ve been wondering for so long why Uncle Matt requested for a piano to be set up. I thought that he might have invited a pianist or something. Who would have thought that Uncle Matt himself would be performing!”

Upon hearing that, Clarissa took a more intent look at Matthew.

She had not regained her composure since his touching confession.

She was so thrilled that she was squealing in delight internally, and the moment that she met gazes with Matthew, her face would turn even redder. She had never realized how deeply in love with him she was till that moment.

Of course, it did not mean that Matthew had never made her heart skip a beat before the proposal, but everything felt more intense knowing that Matthew had put so much effort into the preparations.

It felt as if she was a drama heroine who had fallen head over heels for her handsome senior after watching him play basketball at the basketball courts. A refreshing, exciting kind of romance was blossoming between them.

Oh, I can’t believe that I just had a super good-looking man playing the piano and singing with his baritone voice to confess his heartfelt feelings for me!

This is so romantic! He’s so hot…. So hot!

In Clarissa’s head, she was already spinning around in circles in Matthew’s arms, squealing and laughing.

However, in reality, she was sneaking playful glances at Matthew with her face pink as a peach.

“You… How did you think of that?” She asked shyly, twiddling her thumbs.

Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine Matthew to come up with something that impressive, not to mention that he kept everyone who prepared the birthday banquet in the dark about his performance.

Matthew seemed to relax a little as he smiled at her.

He had been quite nervous when he sang and played the piano moments ago, but he was good at putting up a poker face, and nobody could tell back then. Even when he played a wrong note, the crowd did not seem to notice since they were all dazed by the surprises.

As Matthew admired his little girl’s flustered but delighted face, he felt that her happiness was worth all the effort that he had put in.

At the same time, he must confess that he had never felt that anxious in his entire life.

Matthew held up Clarissa’s hand and stroked her ring finger. The ring around her finger was a newly-prepared blue sapphire ring. “Do you like it?”

Pursing her lips, Clarissa nodded subtly.

Matthew chuckled, “That’s good to hear.”

He did not need to hear her reasons, for her smile was all that he needed.

And to protect that pure smile of hers, he needed more people to know that she was his woman and how much he loved her.

Surely, the incidents that transpired at the birthday banquet would give a clear message to many people that Clarissa meant a lot to him. That way, they wouldn’t dare hurt her so easily.

Unaware of Matthew’s complicated thoughts and fears, Clarissa was grinning meekly from ear to ear. Is this what one would describe as “smiling like an idiot”?

Well, it doesn’t matter. She’s the love of my life.

“Wow, I can’t believe that Mr. Tyson is actually such a loving man!”

Sighs and exclamations could be heard from the crowd from time to time. Many people were obviously feeling envious.

As one might expect, Sienna was one of those people. She could no longer put up a fake smile and simply stood there by the side with a glum face. Only she knew about the emotional rollercoaster ongoing within her.
