You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 321

The couple began to feel uneasy when they noticed Clarissa staring at them pointedly.

“Ms. Quigley, I hope you can talk to Matthew and spare Shermaine. The both of you are doing great while Shermaine has gotten what she deserved. Hence, I believe her parole wouldn’t affect you at all, so why can’t you be more compassionate?”

Clarissa sneered as she narrowed her eyes at them before she spoke in a cold tone. “Mr. and Mrs. Smallwood, I have no right to interfere with Matthew’s matters. Besides, I’m never the kind to show compassion to people who only have ill intentions for me. In this case, why should I play Mother Mary and save her? I’m not a fool. I do understand why you’re doing this, but I have loved ones too. If my father was still alive, he would have tried his best to protect me from harm as well. Hence, I’m afraid I cannot grant you with your request.”

With that, she got up and left.

Kayla began to cry in anger and sadness as she leaned against James. Her heart was filled with so much dissatisfaction for Clarissa, yet she could not do anything.

“James, say something! What do we do now? You’ve got to think of something!”

James was unsure of what to do as well; thus, the couple left sadly.

Jonathan was playing with Damian when Clarissa arrived at Zen Highlands.

He noticed that something was bothering her, so he decided to ask.

However, Clarissa did not tell him about her encounter with the Smallwoods, for she didn’t want him to worry.

Nonetheless, Clarissa was troubled by this matter for a few days before she moved on.

It was as if the meeting with the Smallwoods didn’t happen. Shermaine was still in prison while the Smallwoods remained helpless. As for Clarissa, she had completely forgotten about it.

Meanwhile, Matthew had just returned from a business trip.

At that time, D City was at its coldest time of the year. Thus, Clarissa wore a jacket and headed to the airport.

She was feeling a little bored at home. Knowing that Matthew would be back, she went to pick him up anyway, even though he did not ask her to.

Hence, she had someone take care of Damian as she got ready. She put on a long down jacket before heading to the airport.

Apparently, Matthew’s flight was delayed, so Clarissa wandered around while sipping a cup of coffee as she waited for Matthew. Then, she hurried to the arrival hall to meet Matthew once the flight had landed.

Clarissa spotted Matthew instantly among the crowd. He wore a black coat as he strode alongside two men by his side. The looks on their faces told her that they were discussing some serious issue.

However, they did not noticed her.

Thus, Clarissa decided to wait until they came closer to greet Matthew. Yet, someone beat her to it before she could even say a word.

“Mr. Tyson, welcome back. It must have been a tiring journey, and thank you for your hard work, Mr. Walker and Mr. Lee…” Avery said as she approached them.

She was not dressed warmly like Clarissa. Instead, she wore a dress made of light material, exposing her long legs. It was different in comparison to her usual working attire in the office. It was obvious she had purposely dressed up for today.

“Avery, have you brought all the documents? Good, let’s continue once we get to the car…”

I suppose she’s here because of work since Mr. Walker is her boss.

Clarissa stood in place and did not go forward. I know I looked like a dumpling dressed like this, but was it that bad that you couldn’t see me?

Avery stood right beside Matthew as they walked. She joined in the conversation, seemingly to draw their attention to her.

Damn, was she doing it on purpose?

Well, I don’t care whatever her intentions were. I’ve decided to teach Matthew a lesson once I get back home! Clarissa thought to herself.

Perhaps Matthew sensed her overbearing glare on him and turned his head.

His cold expression turned into a grin when he noticed Clarissa and her gloomy expression.

Matthew stopped in his tracks, which startled the lot, who was walking beside him. They looked at him and slowly turned in the direction he was staring at. They instantly noticed a beautiful woman with a dissatisfied expression staring back at Matthew.

Avery’s eyes dimmed while Camden and Jordan were surprised.

Matthew smiled as he extended his arms. His behavior had caught the attention of passersby due to his tall and slender figure.

However, Clarissa stood there and pouted unhappily. It was obvious she was waiting for Matthew to coax her.

With a loving smile plastered on his face, Matthew walked up to her and pulled her into an embrace. Then, he lowered his head and planted a kiss on her lips.

Clarissa was taken back by his actions while she struggled to break free from his embrace. Yet, Matthew did not let go after a long kiss.
