You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 334

Witnessing the touching scene between the mother and son, Ellie asked, “What happened?”

Clarissa smiled, but did not say a word.

Damian answered on her behalf, “We met a lady with a loose screw just now.”

Cocking a brow, Ellie was astounded.

Clarissa let out a thin smile. “It’s Helen.”

“A loose screw?”

Clarissa mouthed silently to Ellie, “She’s sick in the head.”

Obviously, she did not want Damian to hear that.

Immediately, Ellie understood what she meant. She then warned Damian, “I think I know who it was. Damian, remember not to go near anyone who’s mentally ill. He or she might be a dangerous person. You’re a good boy, aren’t you? So keep a distance from them, lest you’re affected in any way.”

After pondering, Damian nodded. “Understood, Ms. Ellie.”

“Such a good boy…”

They continued to enjoy their lunch while chatting about Helen.

“She always thinks that she’s super great since schooling time. I’m amazed by how she had always been so full of herself. You’re more beautiful, capable, and popular than her. That’s why she sees you as her archenemy and rival against you in everything. Thankfully, you’re not bothered by her actions. She’s probably infuriated after discovering the relationship between you and Uncle Matt. It’s amazing how she can still live a decent life with that mindset of hers.”

Truth be told, the reason why Helen held a deep grudge against Clarissa had something to do with the former’s boyfriend. Nonetheless, the problem still lies with Helen’s own bitterness and resentment.

All in all, Helen was the kind of person who could not tolerate anyone who was better than her. She had a terrible issue emotionally and psychologically.

It was rather unfortunate for Clarissa to have met someone like Helen, who viewed her as her imaginary rival. Clarissa was always Helen’s target to beat. The latter wished to see Clarissa living a miserable life. That was the only thing that gave Helen joy.

Clarissa, however, couldn’t be bothered to deal with Helen’s superiority complex.

Clarissa wiped off the soup which got onto Damian’s face and told Ellie, “As we grow up, we’ll meet people from all walks of life. The more we see, the more we will realize that there are so many peculiar characters in this world. Each of them is here to challenge our beliefs and values. It’s just how things are. If only these people are nice and wonderful, the world we live in will be a completely different place from what it is right now.”

“I see that you can easily accept this as a fact. If she were to act all high and lofty in front of me one day, I’ll surely beat the living daylights out of her.”

“Haha… As a family member of a policeman, you can’t go against the law and beat people up, you know.”

Dumbfounded, Ellie asked, “What do you mean a family member of a policeman? Aren’t you getting ahead of yourself there?”

Clarissa smiled but did not answer her. Ellie and Shawn are the kind of couple that’ll argue and then reconcile with each other very often. Others might think that it’s torture to maintain a relationship like theirs, but they seem to enjoy their unique way of interaction. Oh well, as long as they’re happy about it.

After they were done eating, Matthew called and found out that they were having lunch nearby his company. He insisted that they pay him a visit at Tyson Corporation, to which Clarissa obliged.

Initially, Clarissa thought that they could just go to his office secretly. To her surprise, Donnie was waiting to pick them up in the lobby. He led both mother and child to the elevator right before the public eye.

Clarissa did not reject the idea. Upon entering Matthew’s office, Damian ran to his father excitedly and started sharing his day with him…

Meanwhile, Clarissa took a seat and kept herself occupied with her phone.

Matthew ushered Damian and they both sat down beside Clarissa. She lifted her head and looked Matthew in the eyes.

The father and son duo stared back at her. Their action made Clarissa laugh out loud.

“What are you guys doing? Why are you two looking at me like that?”

Matthew teased her, “Because we like you. Isn’t that right, Damian?”

In a pleasant voice, Damian replied, “That’s right! I love you so much, Mommy.”

“I love you too, Damian!”

Matthew arched his brows while Clarissa gave him a questionable look. Their gazes met as though they were in a standoff. In the end, she admitted defeat, Okay, fine, I love you too.”

“Are you brushing me off?”

She pursed her lips. Yes, I am. What are you going to do about it?

However, she did not pursue this topic as she had something more important to deal with.

“Did you ask Donnie to pick us up on purpose?”

Matthew smirked. “What do you mean on purpose? You’re here to see me, so shouldn’t you come up to the office that way? Besides, everyone knows about our relationship by now. What’s there to hide?”

She continued staring at him with a poker face, making him fret.
