You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 63

It was the Tysons’ gathering that Sunday. Even though Ellie did not want to join initially because Shermaine would be there, she still obliged as her parents insisted on her being there.

After saying her goodbyes to Clarissa, she went back to the Tysons residence.

At that moment, Shermaine haven’t arrived yet.

Ellie went back to her room for a change of clothes while she glimpsed through her window and saw Matthew entering the house.

Fortunately, he did not bring Shermaine along. Otherwise, she would stop putting him on a pedestal from then on.

Ellie sat next to Matthew and thought that he looked composed as usual. With a cold expression on his face, his fingers were rather fidgety. It was as if he wanted a cigarette.

She leaned toward him and asked in a displeasing manner, “Uncle Matt, did you really pick Shermaine up last night? Did you send her home? Or did the two of you head back to Zen Highlands?”

Matthew glared at Ellie intently.

“What did you do last night?”

“Huh?”

Ellie was dumbfounded by the sudden change of topic. Furthermore, Matthew never asked about her personal matters.

“Uncle Matt, don’t change the topic. Tell me, is Shermaine going to be my aunt?”

“Ellie, what are you talking about? You haven’t been home recently, are you that busy at the office? Come over and let Grandma have a look at you. It feels like I haven’t seen you in years,” Old Mrs. Tyson jokingly interrupted her. Ellie rushed over to her side and leaned forward.

“Grandma, do you still have the time to miss me? All you’re thinking about is Uncle Matt’s future wife, right?”

“Look at this jealous little girl. Ellie, I know you have been fond of your uncle since you’re young. It’s true that he will get married someday, but that doesn’t mean that he won’t be your Uncle Matt anymore, you know?”

Ellie frowned. “This has nothing to do with him getting married. The problem is who is he getting married to. Anyway, I just don’t like Shermaine.”

Old Mrs. Tyson glanced at Ellie’s mother, Yuliana then said with a smile, “Ellie, what if you come to like her then?”

Ellie asked Matthew directly, “Uncle Matt, do you like Shermaine?”

Right at that moment, Shermaine entered the room.

Matthew didn’t notice her and he replied flatly, “No, I don’t.”

“Haha… Long live Uncle Matt!”

Ellie was the only one who was laughing joyfully while the others were caught in a fairly awkward situation, especially Shermaine whose face had turned pale. However, even after receiving such a heavy blow, Shermaine had no intention of leaving just yet.

Ellie snickered and scoffed.

As for Shermaine, she simply continued walking in. While handing over some presents to the butler, her smile returned and she uttered, “Mr. Tyson, Mrs. Tyson, Matthias, Yuliana, what is everyone talking about not liking something? Ellie seems very happy about that.”

Upon hearing that, Yuliana replied immediately, “Nothing much, this girl is just creating a fuss. Here, Shermaine, come over and take a seat.”

Shermaine walked over and sat next to Old Mrs. Tyson who greeted her with open arms. Then they started chatting casually.

However, Ellie wasn’t letting go of an opportunity to make fun of Shermaine.

“Shermaine, we were just asking Uncle Matt if he likes you and he replied no!”

The Tysons glared at Ellie but she couldn’t care less.

“See, Uncle Matt has already said so. So why do you still keep coming to my house?”

“Ellie! Is that the way I taught you how to treat our guests?” Matthias exclaimed. Being an astute leader of the company, his presence was astounding. It was Ellie’s greatest fear whenever he displayed sternness.

“Go back to your room immediately.”

Ellie squirmed. Even though she was afraid of her father, she was still happy about what happened earlier.

“Hmph!” she expressed disdainfully and went up the stairs quickly.

After that, the adults resumed their conversation and ignored whatever that had happened. However, Matthew remained cold and distant as he refrained from talking much.

Later that day, Shermaine insisted on staying at the house. She had meals together with the Tysons and chatted with the elders for quite some time. Ellie was annoyed at how thick-skinned the woman was.

“Matthew, Shermaine is leaving. Why don’t you send her off?”

“Uncle Matt doesn’t even like her, why are you asking him to…”

Ellie held back and pursed her lips when Matthias stared at her. Upon seeing Matthew getting up and was ready to send Shermaine home, Ellie uttered instantaneously, “Uncle Matt, I need to go out as well, please send me too.”

Ellie successfully got into the car and became the ultimate third wheel. Throughout the journey, whenever Shermaine wanted to say something, Ellie would interject instead. Under such circumstances, Shermaine wasn’t able to have any alone time with Matthew all the way to the Smallwoods’ home.

Upon seeing Matthew’s car leave, Shermaine was infuriated at Ellie. That little brat kept getting in my way and even ridiculed me the entire day.

Shermaine had been patient with Ellie countless times but she wasn’t going to put up with her anymore this time.
