You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 26

The little whimper she had sounded more like she was flirting with him.

Matthew did not give her an answer. He swallowed the fluid lodged in his throat, and once again, locked lips with her. But this time, he acted more like a cannibal who just wanted to tear the woman apart.

Gradually, the kiss became uncontrollable. So were Matthew’s hands. He ran his hands all over Clarissa’s body as if he was looking for the right spot to set her on fire.

While Clarissa was still indulging in the warmth that wrapped around her, she felt a cold air caressing her thighs all of a sudden. Before he could fully pull down her skirt, she grabbed onto it and pleaded, “Please don’t…”

That plea made Clarissa even more irresistible. Matthew’s dark eyes sparkled with the desire to devour her.

Clarissa, on the other hand, was like a helpless lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

“Matthew, no, please…”

“Oh, f*ck!”

Matthew grunted while gritting his teeth. After being consumed by his desire, he stood up immediately and went straight into the bathroom.

Feeling utterly embarrassed, Clarissa immediately pulled down her skirt and tried to regain her composure while sitting on the couch.

Her mind had gone haywire, and at this point, she could no longer think properly.

She only came to her senses the moment Matthew stepped out of the bathroom in a towel. Upon seeing his chestnut-colored skin, his toned chest, the muscles on his abs, and the tool between thighs…

“Oh my God!”

Clarissa instantly covered her eyes and turned away from him.

“Why are you naked?”

A corner of Matthew’s mouth quirked up. He walked up and sat in front of her.

Clarissa kept avoiding his eyes and was at a loss for words.

Yet, she knew Matthew’s eyes were studying her from head to toes with absolute passion.

She adjusted her sitting position and pressed her voice, “We can’t do this, Matthew.”

Matthew resisted his urge to smoke and responded, “Why not? You’ll never know till you try.”

“What? I…”

She gazed into his eyes and finally understand what he meant.

A hard glint flashed through Clarissa’s eyes. “I’m talking about us being together.”

“That’s what I was talking about. What were you thinking?”

“Excuse me? You were the one…”

Words stuck in Clarissa’s throat. She had no choice but to concede defeat.

She took a deep breath and continued, “You’re president of Tyson Corporation, and you’re from one of the prominent families in D City. I’m just a country-bumpkin who doesn’t even have a family.”

“So?”

Matthew raised his brows and asked casually, “Don’t you like me?”

“I…”

Clarissa’s cheeks blushed almost instantly. She could not bring herself to reject this perfect specimen of a man.

Not only was Matthew steady, but he was also charming at the same time. If a man like him showed interest in her, how could she turn him down? Besides, he was really an affable person.

Yet, Clarissa had to acknowledge the fact that women would always surround an all-rounder like him, and among these women, Clarissa was probably the most uncharismatic of them all.

Growing up, Clarissa had always been a rational person. Unlike some impulsive girls, she would evaluate all the pros and cons before making a decision.

No doubt Clarissa too, had feelings for Matthew, but she would not risk everything just to be with him.

“I’ll take your silence as a yes,” Matthew said.

Clarissa shook her head steadily. “No. I don’t have feelings for you.”

She looked into his eyes and gave him the verdict.

As expected, Matthew’s expression turned grim, and that expression sent a chill down Clarissa’s spine.

“It’s late now. You should leave.”

Matthew curled his lips and stared at her.

Clarissa’s phone rang all of a sudden and broke the awkward silence. It was a call from Ellie, and she was a little embarrassed to answer it.

“Hey Clare, are you still awake? Can I sleep at your place tonight? There’s something I want to ask you. I’ll be there in five minutes. See you!”

Ellie did not give Clarissa a chance to turn her down and hung up the call right away.

Clarissa panicked as she did not have much time to get Matthew out of the house.

“You have to go now. Ellie’s going to be here soon.”

Matthew stood still and responded with a sly smirk.

“Beg me.”
