You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 312

The moment they left, Kayla cried so hard she could hardly stand. Hugging her, James consoled her as best as he could.

“There, there. Didn’t you always promise not to cry? Crying will only make Shermaine feel sad. Besides, we brought good news today. So, there’s no need to react that way.”

After thirty years of marriage, James was already annoyed by how sensitive Kayla was. Oddly enough, it had been this trait that caused him to fall in love with her back then.

“These are tears of joy, James. I am happy for her too! Do you know how much she has suffered over the last three years?”

“Alright… Let’s not talk about it anymore. Once she’s out, everything will be fine.”

After James drove off with Kayla, Judy and her husband arrived.

“I’m sure I wasn’t mistaken. He’s the man whom Hilary fell in love with back then. Do you now know why Hilary wanted to commit such an unscrupulous deed? Look at the car they’re driving! The lady also looks the same as she was ten years ago. Look at how easily wealthy women maintain their youth. Just as I said, they’re rich!”

“Therefore, our visit isn’t in vain. My hunch is correct! Given how rich they are, why would their daughter give up her identity and acknowledge Hilary as her mother?”

“That’s right. I would have done the same thing in her place. Isn’t Hilary something? Given everything she has done, it seems that she loves her daughter a lot.”

Despite lamenting Hilary’s predicament, Judy and her husband were unable to see Shermaine today.

Meanwhile, Clarissa and her entourage had returned from Snow Village after spending less than a week there.

The group of spoilt rich men and women were unable to bear the cold. Hence, they decided to come back earlier to D City.

The moment they returned to D City, Clarissa was flooded with worry. She prayed that the paparazzi hadn’t managed to get some good shots. To her relief, she soon found out that their trip had been overshadowed by a scandal involving a big star.

Feeling nosy, she read about the juicy details Jeremy and the others had shared in their group chat. After all, they had insider knowledge about what was going on.

Clarissa was shocked to read about what happened. Pfft, that’s what caused the scandal?

I see… That’s how it is…

Yarick and Jeremy had so much insider information to share that it felt as if both of them were actually there telling her the story.

Holding her phone, Clarissa typed: I can’t believe how something like that could have happened given that they were married with kids. What were they even thinking? They are really weird.

Yarick hurriedly replied to her message: Hehe! Clarissa, you shouldn’t be surprised. To be honest, your relationship with Matt is the weird one.

Clarissa responded with a meme that expressed her bewilderment.

What does he mean?

Since when did being loyal in one’s marriage and family make one weird?

Did I hear it wrong or has the world gone crazy?

She was genuinely stunned.

Given how blunt Yarick was, he was just being honest in his reply.

Yarick messaged: Clarissa, in truth, there are few who are faithful in their marriage nowadays. We do not doubt that you and Matt love each other deeply. But as to the few of us? Pfft, marriage is just for profit and politics. It’s highly likely we’ll all be unfaithful in the end. As for the celebrities, all they are looking for is excitement. To them, there’s no point just staying with one person.

Clarissa felt that the man’s words were unbelievably heartfelt.

After giving it some thought, she began to understand his point of view a little. However, since her values were different, she didn’t dwell on them any further. Why do they prefer such excitement over living their days peacefully?

Clarissa shook her head with a sigh.

Suddenly, she was swept off her feet and fell into a warm embrace.

Grabbing Matthew by the collar, she complained coquettishly, “Why did you do that? You gave me a fright.”

Wearing his bathrobe, the man was still wet after coming out of the shower. He looked sexy with his short wet hair strewn across his forehead.

He smiled. “Why are you sighing?”

“We’re just discussing some celebrity scandals.”

“What kind of scandals?”

Matthew had no real interest in them, but he quietly listened as she spoke. He enjoyed the gentle sensation her breath brought as he carried her in his arms.

“That’s right. The celebrity was being unfaithful,” Clarissa explained.

The point was, her values were different from those of Yarick’s.

“That’s what I don’t understand. Yarick and Jeremy may be like that, but it doesn’t mean everyone else is the same, does it? One can only say their circle is more complicated as it involves marriages of convenience. To be unfaithful is a matter of one’s character, not love. If those in love are still unfaithful, the problem lies with them. Therefore, one cannot make such a generalization as it depends on one’s individual character.”

Combing her hair with his hand, Matthew replied casually, “Other than not being in love, the sense of responsibility is also missing.”

“Precisely!”

Clarissa nodded in agreement. The next moment, she smiled at Matthew as she adjusted her position to one that was more comfortable.
