You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 425
Chapter 425 As Long As Life Is Satisfying
At home, Clarissa dressed her children up.
“Mommy, aren’t you going with us?”
It was only after growing up that Damien started to realize that some unpleasant events had transpired between his mother and his grandparents.
However, he would still ask her every time he went to the Tyson residence with his sister.
He hoped that one day, his mother would go with him. Only then would everyone be harmonious.
However, Clarissa shook her head.
“No, I’m not going. Remember to have fun! If you want to stay there, just let me know in advance. Don’t forget!”
“Okay!”
Damian pouted disappointedly, walked out while holding Leia’s hand, and got into the car. Meanwhile, Matthew kissed Clarissa before leaving.
Clarissa did not feel disappointed at all. Instead, she enjoyed being alone.
It was simply too rare for a married woman with children to have their own “me” time.
Clarissa rushed back to her room and chose some nice outfits. As she was in a good mood and the weather was beautiful, she wore a youthful outfit. After putting on some makeup, she went to the garage and drove out. However, before leaving, she sent a voice message.
“Hey girls, I’m free now! Like what we agreed on yesterday, I’m all set to go.”
Clarissa drove out of the house. She rolled down the car windows, allowing the summer breeze to caress her face.
Looking at the bright sun in the sky, she felt like she was in an amazing mood.
She soon reached the shopping mall and glanced at her phone. Her friends were still on their way there. As she was in a good mood, she ordered a cup of coffee and some ice cream at a café.
Time had not been harsh on her at all. She still looked extremely young.
She savored the delicious ice cream with a smile, her eyes crinkled gently into crescents.
When she had craving for ice cream, she could not have it because once she did, her children would want to eat too. Hence, she had no choice but to restrain herself.
However, she was now gobbling everything down without having to fear that she would be a bad role model to her children.
Suddenly, someone sat down opposite her.
Clarissa raised her head. When she saw the person, she blinked cutely.
Sometimes, Ellie would say that she was acting cutely on purpose and that she had learned it from Damian.
However, Clarissa had never thought that she looked cute while blinking. She merely did that to express her surprise.
The man opposite her chuckled softly.
“I’m sorry for disturbing you. You don’t mind it if I sit here, right? I just came here. I saw you eat the ice cream, and you look too adorable.”
As Clarissa did not say anything, the man thought that she was too shocked.
Smiling gentlemanly, he consoled her, “Don’t be scared. I’m just here to wait for a friend. If you mind, I’ll leave now.”
Normally, no girl would reject a handsome man like him who exuded such a mature and luxurious charm.
Not actually planning to leave, he merely said it without actually meaning it.
However, Clarissa mumbled, “Sure.”
Then, she looked outside. Ellie was walking over, so she quickly finished her ice cream, stood up and left.
The man was stunned. When he turned around, he saw Clarissa and Ellie walk out of the café. Ellie even turned around to glance at him, but Clarissa did not. This filled him with amusement.
What an innocent girl! I like that.
Then, he stood up and chased after her.
Meanwhile, Ellie clicked her tongue. “You get hit on everywhere you go. No wonder Uncle Matt rarely let you go out alone. My dear Aunt Clare, you’re already a middle-aged woman. Why do you still look like a pretty teenage girl? Haha…”
Clarissa rolled her eyes. “Are you praising or insulting me?”
“Of course, I’m praising you!”
“Stop it. I’m only a little past thirty, so I’m still a youth. I’m not a middle-aged woman, okay? Also, don’t I look like I’m in my twenties?”
Clarissa grinned narcissistically, while Ellie nodded in agreement. Then, both of them burst out laughing.
“Oh, right. Roxanne said that she’ll be reaching soon because she’s still at that event. Ms. Zaha will only meet us at the restaurant later.”
“Okay, we’ll have fun first. I want to watch a movie! Let’s buy some popcorn and we can sing karaoke at night! We can even eat barbeque afterward!”
“Mrs. Tyson, how much have you been holding yourself back? But it doesn’t matter, I’ll follow your wishes…”
They held each other’s hands and roamed the shopping mall.
They were just bored and were not intending to buy anything, when…
“Hey, Ellie. Do I look good in these shoes? It’s been ages since I’ve worn heels.”
Ellie glanced down. “They look quite pretty. Just buy them!”
“Should I?”
Clarissa hesitated. She had too many pairs of shoes, so it was too wasteful to buy one more pair.
However, to that man who hit on her earlier, her hesitation was interpreted as her financial instability.
Hence, he walked in and feigned surprise. His elegant smile was just right.
“We meet again.”
Clarissa and Ellie glanced over simultaneously. When he saw the shoes that Clarissa was holding, he smiled and said, “They’re beautiful.”
Then, he summoned the shop assistant over. “Please wrap these shoes up for this lady.”
Clarissa and Ellie exchanged a glance.
Is there something wrong with this man?
Clarissa did not say anything, probably because she could not be bothered with him. She quickly put on her shoes, dragged Ellie along and escaped.
Meanwhile, the man stretched his hand out toward her. Although he thought that it was a pity, he was amused too.
I like an innocent girl like her!
“Wrap these shoes up for me.”
He believed that he was fated with that lady. One day, he would give these shoes to her.
Holding the box of popcorn, Clarissa and Ellie walked and complained about him.
“Why are men nowadays like this? Do they think that they’re Prince Charming and all the other girls are Cinderella? They’re crazy!”
However, Ellie shook her head.
“That’s because you’re too charming!”
“I only use my charm on my husband.”
“That’s impressive!” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
They watched a coming-of-age movie at the cinema, though they were not too impressed by it. After that, they met up with Roxanne and went to the restaurant together.
Henry sent Yaala there soon later. Now, it was as if she was a precious treasure. After she got pregnant, Henry insisted on keeping her company all the time.
Although Yaala was annoyed at first, she was now used to it. When the girls met, they would just pretend that Henry was invisible.
“Roxanne, how are things with you and Ryler? Why are there so many rumors? It’s not like him to not clarify matters.”
Roxanne blushed and did not dare to answer.
Instead, she rebuked weakly, “Nothing’s happening. We’re just friends!”
Clarissa and Yaala exchanged a look and laughed.
“Oh… friends, huh?”
It was obvious that they were teasing her from their tone.
Roxanne’s cheeks became even redder. Only then did Henry, whom everyone ignored, speak.
“Ryler doesn’t only want to be friends with you.”
Roxanne knew that. However, now that someone was stating it so explicitly, she could not stand everyone’s gazes on her. Furthermore, as she was feeling embarrassed, she excused herself to the toilet.
Clarissa smiled and said, “Looks like something’s going on.”
“Yeah, that’s good. They suit each other well. Roxanne’s an honest girl.”
“Hey, Ellie. You’re the same age as Clary. How long more are you going to drag it on with Mr. Hayes?”
Ellie snorted. “I don’t know.”
“Did you fight again?”
“No. He’s away on a mission.”
“He insisted on being at the frontlines instead of the director. No matter how charismatic he is…”
Although Yaala’s opinions were quite objective, Henry was not happy when he heard her.
“What do you mean, he’s charismatic? You’re my wife and my child’s mother. How can you say that another man is charismatic?”
Instead of feeling furious, Henry felt indignant instead.
When he said that to Yaala, he looked extremely pitiful, as if he needed her to console him.
However, she merely rolled her eyes at him and continued talking to Ellie.
Looking at Henry’s pitiful look, Clarissa chuckled softly.
She was happy when her friends were happy. Their relationships were progressing well, their lives were perfect—everything was just right.
After eating, she, Ellie and Roxanne went to cut their hair. Then, they went to the beauty parlor.
However, they bumped into Kayla there.
She was still a rich wife. After James took back control of the Smallwoods’ company, they were starting to make up for the losses.
Occasionally, when her uncle invited Clarissa for a meal, she would still bump into that couple. However, she had never spoken to them and treated them as strangers.
The reality was not like a television series where everyone had a happy ending.
Although she did not hate them, she would not forgive them. Even until now, she refused to go to the Tyson residence. Even after the old couple passed away in the future, she would still not go.
She would never acknowledge James and Kayla because there was no need to do so.
Everyone had to pay the price for their actions.
Not everyone was generous enough to forgive everything.
Clarissa was not those female protagonists in the television series. She was content with just being an average woman living her life peacefully.
She brushed past Kayla and continued walking while chatting happily with Ellie.
Even though Kayla called out for her, she did not turn around.
It was best if they remained strangers.
“Oh, right. Is your yoga lessons showing any effects? I’d like to have a break recently and was thinking of picking up yoga.
“It’s quite good! Haha!”
Ellie teased, “Roxanne, you’d have to ask Uncle Matt if the yoga’s effective for her! Hahaha!”
Her laughter rang brightly across the venue, while the sun shone beautifully…
Clarissa was very satisfied with the life she had now.
