You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 309

Avery did not see any investment potential in Clarissa’s studio. Even though it did have some value, there were other more profitable investments out there that would make better choices for long-term investments.

Besides, Tyson Corporation already had its own media company and did not need to collaborate with Clarissa to venture into the entertainment industry.

Although everyone else thought that it was a mistake to go against Matthew’s wishes, Avery was adamant not to apologize to the man.

She did not think that she had done anything wrong and as such, had nothing to apologize for.

She was just being professional and was betting that Matthew wouldn’t reprimand or punish her because she was just doing her job.

Indeed, Matthew did not pursue the matter further.

After all, he understood that his employees were merely carrying out their duties and he had not given clear instructions to them as well.

“All right, got it,” Matthew replied. Even though he understood that they were doing their jobs, he was unable to bring himself to praise them for the way they handled the matter.

Just then, he received an incoming call from Clarissa. As such, he dismissed his employees with a wave.

Before Avery left the office, she saw a different Matthew from the one she knew. The man, who was always looking cold and indifferent, had such a soft expression on his face and was all smiles. The harshness exuded by him had suddenly disappeared.

Every woman wished they could be the reason for a man like him to behave in such a manner.

Just when Avery was about to shut the door behind her, she stopped in her tracks as she heard Matthew say in an affectionate and gentle voice, “Baby, please just take my money. Can’t you just give in to me… “

When Avery returned to her office, she did not go back to her seat immediately but went to look for Camden instead.

“Avery, why is your face so red?”

Wilfred frowned when he saw the blush on the woman’s face. Seeing that she was behaving just like a teenage girl in love, he guessed the reason at once.

There were not many women who wouldn’t fall for a man like Matthew.

“Oh, maybe I’m just feeling a little warm. I just came back from Mr. Tyson’s office. Maybe I’m just intimidated?”

Intimidated?

More like in love!

Camden did not want to expose Avery as he had already come across many women in the company who behaved in the same manner towards Matthew.

“Avery, your analysis was correct. If it’s purely for the good of Tyson Corporation, you did not make any mistake. However, that was obviously Mr. Tyson’s personal request. Not only did you refuse to apologize, you even behaved as if you did nothing wrong. That’s actually both good and bad. I won’t say any further. It’s better that you think about it yourself.”

Avery pondered over Wilfred’s words as she walked out of his office. She understood what he meant but was not interested to reflect upon it. Neither did she think she was at any fault.

However, Avery was very curious about the relationship status between Clarissa and Matthew.

She felt uncomfortable thinking that the both of them might be dating as she felt that Clarissa was hardly good enough for Matthew.

Even if they were really an item, Avery was sure that Matthew only liked Clarissa because of her looks.

She despised women who made use of their looks to achieve their aims.

“Hey, Avery! What happened at Mr. Tyson’s office just now?” a curious co-worker approached Avery and asked.

“I heard that you guys made a blunder. What actually happened? Since you were with David just now, could it be because of that screenwriter’s studio?” the co-worker continued.

“What blunder? Who told you such stuff?” Avery retorted at once.

“Oh, I must have misinterpreted it. I’m glad that everything is OK. But how does it feel to meet the president? I just remembered that there were some rumors going on about Mr. Tyson dating that screenwriter. Since you rejected her request, would she complain to Mr. Tyson and get you into trouble?”

Avery seemed to have only heard that part about the rumors of Matthew dating Clarissa.

“What were the rumors about? How is she related to Mr. Tyson?”

“Oh right, you have just returned to the country so you won’t be up to date with the gossips. I don’t know much as well but I heard that… “

The co-worker told Avery some bits he heard about the rumors between Matthew and Clarissa. As for what happened three years ago, the co-worker did not mention it as he wasn’t aware of it.

After hearing about the rumors, Avery was even more certain that Clarissa’s fame as a screenwriter was entirely due to her looks. She suspected that even the award Clarissa won was somehow related to her looks as well.

Avery was sure that Matthew would never fall for such a woman.

Meanwhile, Clarissa and Matthew were still on the phone.

“No need. We’ve already gotten investment from elsewhere. The contract has already been signed. So, I don’t need your money.”

Clarissa meant what she said. Even though Matthew apologized profusely to her over text messages earlier on, she didn’t take it to heart at all.

In fact, Avery had specially waited for that opportunity to approach Matthew.

Even though she was feeling extremely nervous, she was determined to make use of that perfect opportunity to speak to Matthew, hoping to get closer to him.

It wasn’t surprising that most of Tyson Corporation’s employees were ambitious, especially the women. However, it would be up to the individual to find a good opportunity and act on their desires daringly.

Avery appeared in front of Matthew right before he got into his car. Even though she had kept her usual cold and haughty expression, a hint of nervousness could be seen on her face. However, that was just natural.

“Mr. Tyson, regarding what happened in the morning, I reflected upon it after Mr. Walker’s reminder and realized that I didn’t carry out my duties according to your wishes and I’ll apologize for that. However, I feel that your instructions were not clear enough. If you had told us earlier that it was your private request, I would have agreed without hesitation. I was thinking from a business point of view when I rejected her request. As such, I don’t intend to apologize for being professional.”

Ha! This one seems to be quite daring, unlike the other female employees.

Clarissa silently “praised” Avery for being different from the usual employees who engaged in flattery or who are cowardly. She was proud, fearless, upright, and straightforward. Matthew probably also finds her unique and interesting.

Avery is likely to feel flattered by Matthew’s opinion of her but will maintain her pride and coolness. That will pique Matthew’s interest even more and he’ll want her to be his.

It will be a modern Cinderella story whereby a domineering CEO falls in love with a refined and unconventional female employee.

Tsk…

Clarissa looked towards Matthew as she got lost in her imagination. A glint of interest flashed in the man’s eyes as he squinted slightly before speaking in his deep and husky voice, “You have successfully caught my attention. Who are you?”

Huh?

Clarissa was momentarily stunned at Matthew’s reply and almost burst out laughing.

As for Avery, she was taken aback by the man’s response and was at a loss for words.

The situation turned out to be entirely different from how she had expected it to be.

As Avery did not reply and remained in a daze, Matthew lost his patience and got into his car.

However, he did not drive away immediately. Instead, the first thing he did after getting into the car was to make a call.

In the spacious and quiet parking lot, a loud ringtone was suddenly heard. Clarissa, who was holding her phone, got shocked and immediately answered the call.

Avery, realizing that there was someone else present in the parking lot, lowered her head in embarrassment and ran away at once.
