You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 59

Clarissa could not believe that a rookie like her was needed to send a document to the top level.

Everyone knew that all documents could only be sent to the twenty-first floor where the president’s secretary was, and not the twenty-second floor.

It must have been Matthew’s idea to have me go to him.

She was so frightened that she immediately took off.

It wasn’t until she went back and calmed down that Clarissa realized she was being really dumb.

Why was I running?

We’re in the office. He won’t dare to do anything to me in the office.

Moreover, what if he were to make life difficult for me again for escaping this time?

Also, I definitely can’t cook lunch for him now. How am I going to make that up to him? What is he going to do to me now?

She had no choice but to submit.

Not only was she working in Tyson Corporation, but she was also living in Zen Highlands and was practically Matthew’s personal chef. She was in a position where she had no autonomy whatsoever. In other words, she was free for all to attack.

Clarissa really felt sorry for her own tragic reality.

Just then, she received a WhatsApp message. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

She saw that it was a message from him. However, instead of a video call, he sent a text message.

Matthew: Come up!

Clarissa had some dirty thoughts the moment she saw those two words.

However, she immediately got rid of her impure thoughts and silently typed a reply to the message.

Clarissa: Sir, I’ve already sent the documents to Mr. Sheldon. May I know how else I could be of help?”

Matthew: Come up here!

Clarissa: If there is nothing else, I would like to continue my work.

Matthew: Do you want me to come down and look for you myself?

Clarissa: Argh… fine…

Matthew: Be obedient now, Clare…

Clarissa immediately blushed.

“Clarissa, who are you talking to? Why is your face all red? It’s not your boyfriend, is it?”

Amanda was so loud the whole office could hear her. She’s definitely doing it on purpose.

Clarissa did not know what her motive was this time.

However, she refused to confirm nor deny it.

She stood up and prepared to leave.

“Aww, are you shy? What is there to be shy about a boyfriend? Are you afraid that we will find out about it? Is it Kenny?”

The man she mentioned was very clearly interested in Clarissa.

In any case, there were a number of men here who were interested in Clarissa too.

They may not be too happy about it, but of course they were curious now, especially after this little ruckus that Amanda caused.

Clarissa smiled at her and said, “Yeah, it’s my boyfriend. So what about it? But, Ms. Amanda, what has this got to do with Kenny?”

Amanda did not expect Clarissa to admit to it just like that.

Meanwhile, Clarissa took the chance to leave the office immediately regardless of what other people thought.

Twenty second floor.

Matthew’s office.

Knock! Knock!

This was not Clarissa’s first time here, but she was still afraid every single time.

“Come in!”

Matthew’s voice was absolutely alluring to her but she was still resisting the attraction she felt towards him.

Truth to be told, based on his looks to his voice, then to his eyes and his gestures, and finally to the way he spoke and his attitude, Clarissa knew it was only a matter of time before she surrendered herself to Matthew.

She also knew that Matthew had changed from his domineering ways a month ago. Now, he was just continuously teasing her, which was even more effective.

Clarissa looked like she was still in a daze as she walked into his office. Seizing that opportunity, Matthew walked toward her and immediately locked her into a warm embrace before pinching her chin and planting a kiss on her lips.

“Mmm…”

Clarissa was too slow to react and he kissed her passionately before she could even escape.

It took a while before he released her from his grip.

She pushed him away. Embarrassed and angry, she immediately wiped her lips.

Matthew sniggered as if nothing happened. He then returned to a relaxed position at his wide desk.

However, his piercing dark eyes kept gazing at Clarissa.

Uncomfortable with the stares, Clarissa asked, “What are you looking at? And why did you ask me to come here?”

“Nothing.”

“You…”

Clarissa was completely speechless.

“Why did you ask me to come up here then? This is such a waste of resources. As the boss, don’t you know that every second of your employees’ time is precious?”

“Is that so? I didn’t know that.”

Clarissa really wanted everyone to see for themselves what Matthew looked like right now. How is a man like him the president of Tyson Corporation?

He’s a wolf in sheep clothing!

She turned to leave the office and he did not stop her.

At the door, she stopped in her tracks and turned to say, “You are not allowed to ask me to come here again.”

“Oh? Are you giving me commands now, Clare? Who do you think you are?”

She chuckled awkwardly, “Uncle Matthew, you’re misunderstood me. I wasn’t commanding you. I was just discussing it with you. Look at my sincere smile.”

Matthew looked at her.

“You little tease!”

Clarissa’s face fell and she immediately left.

Before Donnie entered the room, Matthew was still grinning bemusedly.

“Mr. Tyson, Mr. Knight from Success Company called. He wants to see you. Their building materials…”

“Donnie,” Matthew suddenly interrupted him.

“Yes, sir!”

“Do you have a girlfriend?”

Donnie fell silent for a while and before he could answer, Matthew chuckled again.

“From today onwards, make Clarissa come up here at least once a day.”

“But sir, you have a jam-packed schedule every single day.”

Matthew looked up with cold eyes. “Donnie, you definitely don’t have a girlfriend. Or rather, you’ve never had a girlfriend, right?”

Donnie’s lips twitched at that.

“Well, the same goes for you, Mr. Tyson.”

“Now I do.”

“But Ms. Quigley hasn’t agreed to it, has she?”

“Donnie…”

Matthew’s face suddenly darkened.

Donnie’s face immediately changed as if nothing had happened. He couldn’t believe he was so impulsive that he had bickered with the president.

“Sir, Mr. Knight says…”

“I’m not seeing him!”

Donnie saw that coming, hence, he crossed out that item and continued on to the next agenda.

The two of them continued talking about work seriously in an atmosphere that was slightly frosty.

This was a typical day for Mr. Tyson and Mr. Sheldon.

After work, Clarissa did not dare to waste time and headed out.

She knew that her colleagues were always very excited during this time.

The reason being they could run into some senior management, managers, or handsome colleagues in the elevators.

The company did not place a ban on office romances, but there was a very small possibility of being part of a couple. This was because they knew the stress and work of being an employee. Hence, they would rather not choose to be with someone from the same company.

When Clarissa packed her things, she heard people say, “Quick, Mr. Taylor from the sixteenth floor just got into the elevator! Hurry!”

“The new hunk from the twelfth floor is here too and he is taking the stairs. Let’s use the stairs today too…”

This was really a sight to behold.

Clarissa left together with a few of her colleagues. The moment they left the building, she was trying to decide between calling a cab or taking the train when a piercing voice attracted everyone’s attention.

“Clarissa, what are you doing here?”

It was the kind of shrill voice that Clarissa hated. She didn’t have to look up to know who it belonged to.

“Oh, you know Clarissa?”

Yvonne was sitting in a shiny convertible which attracted everyone’s attention.

“Hahaha… Clarissa, are you just strolling around here? Or have you finally decided to find a job, you unemployed bum?”

Clarissa looked up and saw Yvonne’s triumphant smile. Sitting next to her was the cheeky Luke.

“Clarissa, do you know them? Why don’t you go and say hello?”

Her colleagues asked enthusiastically because of the car.

Clarissa shook her head and said, “I don’t know them. I’ll get going first.”

She thought that it probably would be faster to take the train. If she didn’t leave now, she won’t be in time to make dinner.

Am I turning into a housewife? All I’m thinking of after work is to make dinner?

It was funny and yet, it gave her mixed feelings at the same time.

“You don’t know us? What? Are you too embarrassed to admit that you know us? Do your friends know about how your mom wanted to marry rich, but she became my stepmother instead? Are you trying to marry rich like your mom too?”

Everyone looked at Clarissa strangely but she remained unfazed.

She glared coldly at Yvonne, “Yvonne, before you call yourself rich, you should check on your own attitude first, don’t you think?”

With that, Clarissa picked up her speed and headed to the closest train station.

She did not care about what her colleagues thought about her.

On the other hand, Yvonne looked absolutely murderous.

As for Luke, even though he looked unbothered by everything, his eyes never left the direction from where Clarissa left.

Yvonne’s eyes glinted with a flash of malignity that disappeared just as quickly as they came. She then leaned against Luke weakly.

“Mr. Harrison, I have been waiting for you for one whole day. I’m so hungry, why don’t we go and get some dinner?”

Luke smiled before he started his car engine and drove off.

However, the car was not really speeding and it quickly caught up with Clarissa.

Yvonne frowned. She knew Luke’s thoughts and intentions very well, but she could not do anything about it.

Suddenly, a car sped up behind them, rolling to a stop next to Clarissa.

Having no idea who was in the car, they noticed that Clarissa looked a little anxious but soon, she opened the door and got in before leaving.

Yvonne gaped speechlessly as she watched that car leave.

“Who was that?”

Yvonne was a good judge of brands and she knew that the car was definitely not any worse than Luke’s car.

Did Clarissa find herself another richer man? For her to be so secretive, could it be that she’s in some kind of affair?

Looking grim, Luke stepped on the gas and sped away amidst Yvonne’s astonished yelps.
