You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 263

Nonetheless, such a blatant move in a hotel would only be regarded as flirting.

Despite struggling wildly and screaming at the top of her lungs, Clarissa merely attracted a casual glance from others. After all, what did it matter if she wasn’t a willing participant? Who would be willing to interfere and bring trouble upon themselves?

Indeed, the most horrifying thing in the world wasn’t the discovery of various despicable deeds — it was the discovery of men’s apathy toward those deeds.

In other words, the most terrifying thing was men’s indifference.

Clarissa knew she would be fine since Yael would be back soon, but being hugged for even a second by Winston in such a manner truly had her on the edge of breaking down.

She had merely struggled for a few seconds, but it felt like the longest time in her life. While Yael had yet to return, Winston urgently whispered threats into her ear.

“You’d better know your place. If you go along with me, I’ll propel you to even greater heights by investing in every single work of yours. You can even film them however you like. Otherwise, I’ll ensure that you’ll no longer be able to stay in this industry…”

“Buzz off!”

“Haha, you’re really making life difficult for yourself, Ms. Quigley. How naive of you!”

The intoxicated man’s expression abruptly turned vicious, his threatening gaze derisive.

At long last, Clarissa managed to snag a pen from her bag. In an instant, she ruthlessly jabbed it at him. On the heels of that, a blood-curling scream echoed in the lobby. Shuddering, everyone swung their gazes over, only to see Winston clutching his arm that had the pen protruding from it. At that sight, they all flinched. Ow, that looks excruciating!

Winston’s eyes blazed scarlet and teemed with viciousness. He charged toward her as though a moment away from strangling her to death.

Terror-stricken at the threat in his eyes, Clarissa backed away several steps.

At that precise moment, a sneering voice that was obviously colored with smugness rang out.

“I was wondering who it was, and I’m surprised it turned out to be you, Clare. What a coincidence! I haven’t seen you in many years, but I never expected you to have stooped so low. There are actually men interested in you despite being a reject? But well, I guess that makes sense. You’re indeed beautiful with your superb looks, so men would certainly flock to you. Alas, those men have no idea that you’re merely a used wh*re!”

Looking over her shoulder, Clarissa saw that the person mocking her was none other than Mimi, who now went by the name Misty.

Despite the chilly winter, the woman was only wearing a tight and revealing mini skirt. Her breasts seemed to have increased in size, and her countenance was also seemingly different from the Mimi of the past.

Indifferent, Clarissa neither refuted her words nor got up in arms.

Merely regarding her cousin as invisible, she spun on her heels and strode away.

“Hey! Stop right there, b*tch! You injured me, yet you want to simply leave just like that?”

Winston seemed to be in such pain that he was on the verge of committing murder earlier, yet he was stopping Clarissa in the next moment. Hence, it was apparent that her assault didn’t hurt him all that much.

Clarissa’s lips curved into a cold arc. “I’ll foot the doctor’s bill, Mr. Warren.”

“F*ck you! Do you think I’ve got no money that I need you to pay for the doctor’s bill? Who do you think I am that you’re simply leaving after injuring me? Mark my words! I’ll make your life a living hell! Don’t dream of surviving in this industry anymore, for I’ll have you begging me for mercy on your knees sooner or later!”

That wasn’t all he said. Subsequently, he became even cruder as he spoke. Meanwhile, Mimi sashayed over to him. She swayed her hips and fluttered her eyelashes, radiating sensual enticement from head to toe.

As expected, Winston spaced out while staring at her chest. After a long moment, he asked, “Do you know her?”

“Haha… not only do I know her, but she’s my cousin. You’re Mr. Warren, yes? I’ve met you at a cocktail party once.”

“Oh, really? I couldn’t have possibly forgotten about it if I’d met a beautiful lady like you.”

Giggling, Mimi murmured, “It’s not too late to make my acquaintance now.”

Hah! He doesn’t even care about the hole in his arm anymore at the sight of a woman. How lascivious!

Mimi flashed him a beguiling smile. “Are you interested in my cousin, Mr. Warren? I know a lot of things about her. Back then, she almost married into the wealthy Tyson family. Alas, she was sadly abandoned in the end.”

“The Tyson family? Are you referring to that Tyson family?”

The look in Winston’s eyes changed, and his gaze on Clarissa became all the more perverted.

“Haha… I want to have a go at the woman whom Mr. Tyson has bedded as well…”

Hearing that, Mimi sniggered. “Right? I think many men would be interested in the woman Mr. Tyson has once bedded.”

Clarissa stared at her, but Mimi deliberately flashed her a provocative smile as though saying that she was doing it all on purpose while she couldn’t do anything to her.

Conversely, Clarissa’s brows furrowed, and a sharp, cold gleam glinted in her eyes.

“Mimi Lester, was the lesson three years ago not enough for you? Do you also want to end up like that woman?”

The people nearby had no inkling who Clarissa was referring to, but Mimi did.

At that warning, the latter’s heart lurched violently.

It was clear as day that she was afraid, for she ducked behind Winston.

“Don’t be afraid. Calm down, Ms. Lester. Why are you afraid of a few words from a used wh*re? You’ve got me, no? I’ll protect you.”

Wearing a fearful expression, Mimi burrowed into Winston’s arms.
