You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 357

The business world was no different than war.

Some liked to battle in the open while others preferred to use subterfuge.

The success Matthew achieved in the business world didn’t come without a cost. He had offended many along the way and even more wanted to see him and Tyson Corporation destroyed.

After all, he knew that no one was invincible, including him. Although not many people dared to challenge him, there was still a rare few brazen enough to do so.

Consequently, he didn’t take the matter lightly and assumed that it was just some paparazzo wanting to make a name for himself. He resolved to get to the bottom of who was behind the entire saga.

Looking at Matthew, Jeremy couldn’t help but ask, “Matt, who did this?”

Matthew didn’t reply. However, Yarick sneered instead. “Who else can it be? There was one case a few years ago, another one a few months ago, and even one more recently…”

Yarick mentioned all the business competitors that Matthew had put out of business. All of them wanted revenge.

“Can’t those b*stards accept defeat? They are just full of schemes. Once I find out who it is that slandered Damian, I’ll sleep with his wife and make her betray him…”

Jeremy’s lips twitched at Yarick’s idea of punishment.

Yarick had always behaved that way, shooting off his mouth without a care. Whenever he was worried, he would always react impulsively.

I pray that he finds a smart wife soon that’s able to keep him on a leash.

“Yarick, your method of revenge lacks a moral compass.”

“F*ck, who cares about moral compass under such circumstances.”

Yarick was upset that his idea was being criticized. In fact, he felt it was a brilliant idea. Isn’t causing the man’s wife to cheat on him the best form of revenge? At the very least, if he was betrayed by his wife one day, he would kill whoever did it.

However, haha… I can forget about such comparisons. After all, I will never be betrayed by my wife.

Yarick wanted an extremely submissive wife who would acquiesce to everything he wanted. That way, she wouldn’t even have the opportunity to betray him.

And that was how he came to that decision.

Yarick was lost in thought, trying to decide what were the qualities to look for in his future wife. Little did he know that it was uncertain if everything would go according to his plan.

“Matt, leave this to me, I will kill the b*stard who did this.”

When Yarick volunteered enthusiastically for the task, Jeremy shook his head instead. “You’re not suited to it. It’s better I do it.”

“What do you mean I’m not suited? Let me tell you, Jeremy, don’t underestimate me. I can…”

Before he could finish boasting, Matthew interrupted him with a grave and frosty tone.

“Enough, both of you don’t have to do it.”

“Alright. We won’t get involved.”

Nevertheless, Jeremy voiced his opinion. “However, Matt, the holiday season is coming. The livelier it gets, the more these people would use the occasion to cause trouble.”

Matthew grunted in acknowledgment.

There was no need to elaborate as all of them knew what they had to do.

Just when they took their seats after being done with the serious topic, Yarick began to feel restless.

Adjusting his plump body, he finally voiced what he had wanted to say in a long time.

“Matt, actually, what I wanted to say was…”

Just when he paused, Matthew and Jeremy turned to look at him in unison, making him feel pressured.

“What?”

Despite feeling awkward under their curious gazes, Yarick gritted his teeth and steeled himself for what he found difficult to convey.

“Matt, I want to go over to your place and taste Clarissa’s cooking.”

Matthew raised his eyebrows as Jeremy snorted in laughter.

Feeling awkward, Yarick explained immediately. “Erm, Matt, I don’t mean anything else. I’m sure all of you know that I enjoy eating and she does cook really well…”

“Wrong. You also like to fool around with women,” Jeremy added mischievously.

Yarick snapped back at once. “Me? Isn’t that supposed to be you?”

Jeremy let out an innocent laugh. Not wanting to waste any more time with him, Yarick continued his explanation.

“Matt, I really miss Clarissa’s cooking a lot. Since the holiday season is approaching, why don’t we have a party by sharing a meal together?”

Evidently, Yarick was just greedy for food.

Meanwhile, Jeremy smirked at his suggestion.

After rolling his eyes at Jeremy, Yarick gave Matthew an ingratiating smile.

“Matt, what do you say? Please spare a thought for my craving, really. Clarissa doesn’t have to cook much. Eight… no, six… four, four dishes would do. Hmm, why don’t we have a soup too, hehe…”

Matthew squinted his eyes at Yarick, causing him to feel embarrassed.

But, for the sake of food, Yarick was willing to endure the pressure and would definitely not waver.

Just when he broke out in cold sweat, Matthew replied, “I understand.”

What does that mean?

Is it a yes or a no?

“Matt, it that a promise or…”

Jeremy covered Yarick’s mouth at once as he dragged the nitwit out. “Alright, Matt. You continue with your work while we take our leave.”

After they left Matthew’s office, Yarick flared his temper at Jeremy.

“Jeremy, that was none of your business. It wasn’t easy for me to gather the courage to broach the topic with Matt. So why did you drag me out before I got my answer? Do you realize that you have spoilt my grand plan?”

“Sheesh…”

Jeremy shook his head. “You idiot! If Matt didn’t agree, wouldn’t he have rejected you on the spot? Don’t you know what he means when he told you he understood?”

“Huh? Does it mean that he agrees? But he hasn’t decided on the time. What am I going to do if he ends up forgetting? Shouldn’t he schedule it? That way, no one will forget.”

“Since Clarissa is the one cooking, shouldn’t he check with her first? Once it’s settled, they would naturally notify you about it. Yarick, has all your fat gotten into your brain? Why are you becoming stupider by the day?”

Yarick sneered, “What about you? The only brain you have is down there and you use it only for philandering.”

Neither of them were willing to give way.

Despite having argued throughout the years, their relationship was as strong as ever.

Snorting at each other, they went their separate ways.

After the shocking events of the morning, Clarissa’s mood improved when she managed to calm down.

This wasn’t the first time she was faced with cyberbullying. If she was indeed ruined by the exposé, those anonymous trolls would only gloat at her misery before spewing venom at their next target. They couldn’t care less about the lives their malicious words had destroyed.

Therefore, Clarissa realized that there was no point in feeling upset. After all, it would only serve to delight her enemies.

Karma would punish those despicable trolls one day.

Hence, she spent the entire day playing with Damian and ignored what was going on online. Other than answering a few calls from her friends, she didn’t want to listen to anyone else.

Hilary was one of those whose calls were rejected.

When she saw the news, Hilary’s first reaction was to scold her daughter for being careless to the extent of being caught in the act. It never crossed her mind that Clarissa was innocent at all.

Given how despicable she was, she assumed Clarissa was equally vile. Why didn’t she be more careful with her rendezvous? Why didn’t she protect her son? If someone finds out that the child isn’t Matthew’s, she would lose her shot at the fortune. Also, she would be kicked out by Matthew and not get a single penny from the divorce…

Hilary’s mind was filled with all sorts of nasty thoughts. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

The next thing she considered was how the matter impacted her. If Clarissa was chased out by Matthew, she would no longer be of use to Zach. She would then revert to being ridiculed and treated badly by the Garretts.

She really is the death of me.

Why does that wench need to look for a lover? Why can’t she play her role as Mrs. Tyson obediently? What a shameless and idiotic girl…

When she didn’t get a response from Clarissa, Hilary threw her phone aside in frustration. Fear began to grip her as she grew concerned about her future.

Zach would definitely not treat me well anymore while my allowance would also be reduced. Furthermore, there are two bloodsuckers that see me as their golden goose. As for my son, he is now estranged… When she thought about Shermaine, who was still in prison, she wondered why she wasn’t released yet despite having the help of such an influential family.

None of them are dependable. In fact, they’re all useless!

Hilary finally realized the sad truth that she had no one to rely on anymore.

Consequently, she regretted switching babies then. If she hadn’t done so, her biological daughter, Shermaine, would have been the one to marry Matthew and lived the life of a wealthy lady. And she would be the mother-in-law that commanded the respect of others, instead of being beaten up by her husband and ignored by her step-daughter. Now that her son had kept his distance, neither of her daughters was able to help her achieve the glamorous life she wanted.

She rued her decision. If only I didn’t switch babies.

If only….

Wallowing in her regret, Hilary was unable to extricate herself from her thoughts.
