You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 243

Clarissa wasn’t familiar with the Wynters and Matthew did not introduce her to them at the banquet either.

As of now, the Wynters and the Tysons were maintaining a harmonious relationship on the surface, despite having some hard feelings inwardly. Due to the reason that the conflict of interest between the two families had not been totally severed, they still had to maintain as acquaintances.

Matthew, however, did not treat the Wynters with the same politeness as Matthias.

It was therefore unnecessary for them to exchange greetings or introductions.

As soon as Jacque and Sandra saw Clarissa entering the venue, they forgot about their hostility and were filled with curiosity.

“Jacque, I think that Matthew’s fiancée looks familiar.”

Sandra expressed her doubts to her husband.

She had no animosity towards Clarissa since the beginning. Even though Shermaine was very close to her husband and he even did her favors, being her aunt, she did not really like her.

Furthermore, after Hannah was tricked by Shermaine to do something wrong, she was now more sensible about the whole situation and was able to stop herself from making an even bigger mistake on time.

Having heard all those negative rumors and widespread news about Shermaine, Sandra was now convinced that Shermaine was capable of doing all those things.

Therefore, seeing that Matthew had a fiancée and it wasn’t Shermaine, Sandra thought to herself that it was fortunate for a good man like Matthew to not be tarnished by Shermaine.

Upon seeing his fiancée today, Sandra was surprised to find out that she was not only beautiful but also reminded her of Hannah during her younger years.

Although Jacque was not used to staring at young girls, after his wife had mentioned it and he carefully looked at Clarissa from afar, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of familiarity toward her.

He nodded his head and said, “Indeed. Have we met her before?”

Sandra shook her head and replied, “I don’t think so.”

“Yes, I don’t think that’s possible either. She looks like someone we know.”

Sandra pointed out directly, “Do you remember the picture of Mom wearing a bodycon dress when she was younger?”

Jacque was immediately struck by Sandra’s words.

“Yes, I do remember that. It makes sense, now that you say it.”

Despite only having a few of Hannah’s photos when she was young, that one had a distinctive impression on them because it was so beautiful.

It was just that Clarissa was dressed differently tonight, otherwise she would look exactly like Hannah if she also put on a bodycon dress and curled her hair.

“Right? There is a striking resemblance between the two. Mom would be shocked if she saw it.”

The couple could not help but be shocked at the resemblance between Clarissa and Hannah.

After the reception ended, Sandra walked up to Clarissa who was standing at the door.

“Ms. Quigley.”

Clarissa was surprised to be greeted by someone she didn’t know.

As Sandra’s smile was friendly and warm, Clarissa smiled back at her.

“You are?”

“I’m Damon’s Aunt. I’ve heard about you from him.”

Clarissa’s thoughts wandered. Is she part of the Wynter family? Shermaine’s aunt?

Clarissa’s expression changed slightly as she became warier. ”Hi, Mrs. Wynter.”

Sandra was able to sense the change in her attitude, so she held back as she said smilingly, “You are really beautiful!” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“Oh… Thank you.”

Both ladies remained silent after their conversation ended abruptly. As soon as their cars pulled up, they got into their own cars and left the venue.

As Matthew held Clarissa in the car, he asked, “What did Mrs. Wynter say to you just now?”

“She said that I look beautiful.”

Out of curiosity, she asked Matthew, “What does she mean by that? Is it facetious or sarcastic? Could it be that she was implying something else?”

Matthew chuckled and said, ”I haven’t had much contact with Mrs. Wynter, but she seems fine as a person, so she was probably complimenting you genuinely.”

“That’s unusual. I thought she was going to cause a scene.”

Clarissa thought that after what happened with Shermaine, being Shermaine’s aunt, it was natural for Sandra to dislike her. She was unaware, however, of the conflict of interest between the Tysons and the Wynters, since Matthew wouldn’t mention it to her either.

Instead of elaborately discussing that topic, Matthew smiled as he lowered his head and kissed her on her forehead.

“Since you’re so beautiful, no one would want to upset you. Furthermore, who would dare to cause you trouble when I’m by your side?”

Clarissa smiled, threw her arms around Matthew’s neck, and pulled him close to her.

“That’s right, I’m President Tyson’s fiancée after all.”

Matthew raised an eyebrow as he asked, “Fiancée?”

As Clarissa smiled, Matthew instinctively knew what she meant.

He stared deeply into her eyes as his gaze remained fixed on her.

Clarissa couldn’t help but call out softly, “Hubby.”

Matthew’s heart fluttered as he lowered his head and kissed her pink and soft lips. Those delicate lips had captivated him all night and he couldn’t wait to indulge in them.

Since the reception had already ended, she wouldn’t have any problems with smearing her lipstick anymore, nor would she be able to stop him from kissing her.

Jacque and Sandra did not intentionally reveal that they had met Clarissa to Hannah, as they only briefly mentioned it during their conversation.

At the mention of Matthew, Hannah was immediately reminded of Shermaine.

She sighed and said, “Jacque, can’t you do anything about Shermaine’s matter?”

Sandra’s eyes flashed with displeasure, but she didn’t show it while speaking to Hannah.

“Mom, Shermaine is Jacque’s niece, how could he refuse to help her? However, after Jacque went and had a more in-depth understanding of the situation, he realized that those people are the real victims. Although there is no evidence that points to Shermaine, why would people wrongfully accuse her? Moreover, it is very likely that Shermaine did it because at the time, James had spent a great deal of money on this matter. Why would James pay this money if Shermaine wasn’t involved in that? Thus, Shermaine is not innocent, she really did those things.”

Sandra was upset at the very thought that Shermaine was that kind of person.

Moreover, Shermaine was still a student back then, but she was capable of doing those kinds of horrible things. Deep down, Sandra felt that the girl was too manipulative and scheming.

Not only was she scheming, but she had been putting on an innocent front after harming so many people, which meant she was a vicious and relentless person too.

Sandra was not happy that Hannah was still concerned about that granddaughter of hers, and so she told Hannah clearly and directly without hiding anything.

As elders, it wasn’t because they were unwilling to help Shermaine, but she had perpetrated so many horrible things that they couldn’t let her ruin the Wynter family’s reputation as well.

Upon hearing that, Hannah was shocked and deeply disappointed.

How is that possible?

As Hannah shook her head and sighed, she uttered, “How can this child do such a thing? Although we couldn’t call ourselves righteous, the Wynter family will not inflict harm on others. She…”

Hannah shook her head again as she was clearly disappointed to the core.

Seeing that Hannah was in that state, Jacque quickly talked about something else to divert her attention.

“Speaking of which, Mom, the picture of you when you were young is really beautiful. Matthew’s fiancée looks just like you when you were young.”

“Yeah, Grandma, didn’t I take a picture of your photo on my phone? People even commented on how beautiful the girl in the photo is and asked if she is my girlfriend.”

Hannah’s grandson also joined in the conversation at this time and his statement amused her.

Hannah laughed as she responded, “Yes, I was considered one of the prettiest back then.”

“Grandma, it seems like Grandpa had scored a great deal with you. Why did you like Grandpa?”

Hannah’s eyes filled with sweetness as she tried to recall her memories. “I must have been blinded by him back then…”

Despite telling the story several times, she never grew tired of it, but rather reminisced about her youthful love while telling the story fondly.

Eventually, the family managed to put Shermaine’s matter to rest.

When Clarissa woke up the next morning, she swiped through her phone and realized that she was on the internet trending topics again.

While the background of the photo was blurry, it could be seen that she was holding Matthew intimately as they entered and exited the hotel.

Furthermore, some people who claimed to know some insider news wrote on the internet that Mr. Tyson took his fiancée to the reception and it was Clarissa’s official debut before entering the upper- class society.

What is this?

Clarissa tossed the phone aside, hopped into the shower, and changed before going downstairs for breakfast. Then she thought that since the photos posted were harmless, there was no need to delete or block them.

Matthew could have been aware of this earlier, so she didn’t care too much about it.

Ava from the group chat sent the address of the meetup. As she needed to meet some of the readers that day, she didn’t give much attention to those matters. Upon looking at the address, she realized it was at the entrance of D University.

After Clarissa greeted Catherine and a quick change of clothes, she left the house.

She wore a sweater dress with a black coat today, which accentuated her slender figure. Underneath her woolen hat, her hair fell freely, giving her face an even more petite appearance.

As soon as she got out of the car, she looked around at the entrance, where several women and girls were gathered. As soon as they saw her, their eyes lit up and they rushed over to her.

Clarissa smiled and remained silent.

There stood a few people in front of Clarissa, and after the awe of seeing her in person, it was an elegant middle-aged woman who spoke first.

“Clarissa?”

An adorable smile spread across Clarissa’s face as she tilted her head.

“Ava?”

“It’s really you. Haha… You’re so beautiful and adorable…”

Clarissa was completely caught off guard when Ava hugged her immediately after saying that. Despite that, she quickly adapted to her enthusiasm.

There were five people in total. Upon seeing her, each and every one of them praised her beauty and then hugged her. As they were still thrilled about meeting their idol, a girl rushed out of the university and ran to them excitedly.

“Ah… Are you Clarissa? You’re so gorgeous, you’re so stunning! You are absolutely breathtaking. So flawless…”

She was probably overexcited since she repeated the words over and over again. Had Ava not reminded her, she’d have continued.

Her face turned red, but she was still very cheerful as she gave Clarissa a hug.

Then the few of them introduced themselves to one another and decided to sit down at a cafe for a chat.

Nonetheless, all of them stared at each other, and none spoke.

Jasmine, who seemed the gentlest of them all, spoke up suddenly and said, “Clarissa, I saw you at the reception last night. You and Mr. Tyson looked really lovely together.”
