You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow
Chapter 172

Sienna kept what she saw at the airport to herself.

The weekends flew by in the blink of an eye, and another grueling week of work had begun. Sienna decided to make a visit to Tyson Corporation.

Matthew seemed to have expected her to come, and he had set aside some time in his schedule to chat with her.

On the other hand, Donnie was a little baffled by Matthew's decision to meet her. He knew that the girl known as Ms. Grande was someone whom the Tyson family had arranged for Matthew to marry, but Matthew had never agreed to meet her before.

That's really weird, and Ms. Quigley is still staying with him in Zen Highlands! He had a hunch that Ms. Quigley would be the one who would become the wife of the president of the company. "Ms. Grande, this way please."

Donnie had a professional, polite smile plastered on his face as he ushered Sienna into the president's office.

When he returned to his own office afterward, he did not immediately resume work. Instead, he whipped out his phone and began searching for the latest gossip related to Tyson Corporation. Meanwhile, Sienna was sitting awkwardly opposite Matthew at his desk.

It had been ten minutes since she entered his office, and yet Matthew, who remained focused on his work, did not even look her in the eye.

She had somewhat seen that coming, but she had never expected Matthew to be that cold toward her.

Hey, why are you acting so unbothered? I know about your relationship with Clarissa! Is that not worth your attention at all?

Sienna seemed to have forgotten that she was the one who came to visit him. In fact, she should be the one striking a conversation.

Eventually, Sienna lost her patience and finally spoke.

"Matt, what's your relationship with Ms. Quigley? Is she your lover?"

Putting aside his files, Matthew looked up with his sharp eyes.

"Yes."

Sienna paused for a few moments. She had prepared so many lines to say beforehand, and yet she found herself at a loss for words due to the intensity of his cold gaze.

As the silence persisted, Matthew looked away, and Sienna regained her composure.

She tried to string her thoughts together and said, "Matt, I want to compete with Ms. Quigley, fair and square. And I won't tell anyone about your relationship with her, especially to your family." Matthew's expression darkened. With his deep, dangerous voice, he replied, "Are you threatening me?"

"No... I... That's not my intention at all. I know that you have your reasons for not making your relationship public, but I want to have a chance to win you over. I really like you, Matt. If you still don't replace me the least attractive after giving me a chance, I'll willingly back off from your relationship with Ms. Quigley."

With Clarissa's social status, it would be almost impossible for her to be accepted by the Tysons. Even if Matthew were lovestruck with her, his family would be a major obstacle between them. Sienna confidently assumed that Matthew would be afraid of making his relationship with her public.

And with that "trump card" in her hands, she could use it to persuade Matthew to give her a chance to know him better. She believed that her proposal would be a good offer in the eyes of Matthew and Clarissa.

While thinking about her great plan, Sienna was so full of herself and somehow came to the conclusion that she was a complete saint for coming up with such a proposal. Hmph. I could totally have told your family about this, and you two would have broken up already.

Although she was the one paying a visit and pleading with Matthew to accept her proposal, deep down, she had put herself on a pedestal and felt that she had the upper hand in the current situation. Meanwhile, Matthew was looking increasingly displeased.

"Sienna, your ego is too big for your own good. Do you seriously think that I need your help with my relationship?" he said curtly.

Compete fair and square? You can never compare to Clare, let alone compete with her. What a vain woman.

For Matthew, Sienna's words were simply an indirect threat.

He felt rather disappointed about where the conversation was headed. I have expected more from you. Who would know that you're just a dumb woman?

Hmph. On second thought, there probably isn't a smarter woman than Clare in this world. Hehe...

Matthew was certainly not thinking that based on some objective criteria. He was but a man deep in love with his clever little girl, or so to say, he only had eyes for his lovely woman.

In contrast, Sienna was just an idiotic nuisance.

"You should leave."

He did not want to be in the same room as Sienna, not even for a second longer.

Sienna had not seen that coming at all. Feeling embarrassed that things had turned out completely different from what she had envisioned, her face gradually turned pale.

"Matt, I'm not trying to threaten you. Why can't you give me a chance?"

"Why should I give you a chance?"

Sienna's question almost made Matthew puke.

Hah... She simply can't accept the reality, can she? Is she trying to say that as long as you are someone she's interested in, you should accept her advances and let her have her way with you? What a stuck- up woman.

If that's the case, then I would be giving that chance to countless girls here in D City! Hah...

On the surface, Sienna seemed to be calm and confident. However, her confidence stemmed from narcissism rather than empowerment.

Panicking a little, Sienna bit her lip and finally said something that she considered to be a threat.

"Matt, don't you care if I tell the Tysons about your relationship with Clarissa?"

Matthew let out a deep sigh. Squinting his eyes and pursing his lips into a sly arch, he replied, "You can try."

His voice felt like a sharp blade made of ice. Sienna shook a little and felt as if every muscle in her body had tensed up.

While she stood there, petrified with fright, Matthew had already given Donnie the instructions to send her off, or more precisely, to kick her out of the building.

Donnie wasted no time in going to his office. Upon seeing Sienna's terror-stricken face, he blinked. So, it's just as I've expected.

Other than Clarissa, he had never seen anyone else who was able to keep up a brave front under Matthew's authoritative gaze. As Donnie had anticipated, even a woman like Sienna, who flaunted her confident and out-going personality, would be no exception.

Matthew Tyson, the man who could intensify the tension in a room in a matter of seconds, would not show kindness to just anyone simply because he had found the love of his life.

His personality was still the same.

"Ms. Grande, this way please..."

With her face pale as a sheet, Sienna shakily left Matthias's office. Before Donnie closed the doors, she suddenly turned back and said, "Matt, even if you chase me out like this, I still won't tell anyone about your secret."

That was her last attempt to make a good impression in front of Matthew.

However, Matthew could not care less about her words.

Without even looking at her, he said, "Do what you want to do."

He was unafraid about making his relationship with Clarissa public because he knew that he would have to do so eventually.

For him, it was simply a matter of timing and the potential problems that might arise because of that.

He had chosen not to tell his family about his relationship so that Clarissa could enjoy a peaceful love relationship with him for a little longer.

That day, Sienna left Tyson Corporation with nothing but a heavy heart.

However, to outsiders like the employees of the company, who had no idea of Sienna's conversation with Matthew, all they picked up was that she was the second woman who had visited their president since Ms. Smallwood.

There were also rumors about how Sienna was the most probable candidate to marry their president.

And so, Yuliana shared the so-called good news with Margaret when she got home after work. "Last time, Sienna told me that things were going well with Matthew, and this time, she even visited his office! When she came to work this afternoon, she looked a little flustered too. Their relationship must be progressing smoothly!" Those were Yuliana's very words.

Margaret was absolutely delighted to hear that, so much so that she even began to think how she would go about preparing for Matthew's wedding. Similarly, Yuliana could not contain her joyous laughter as she shared the information with her husband in her bedroom.

"Hah... I knew it. I knew that Matthew would fall for such a good girl like Sienna. Remember Shermaine? She lacks the intellect of a mature woman. It's probably due to her family background. They are just new money, after all. On the other hand, the Grande household has been prospering for generations. Sienna has better manners and is more knowledgeable because of that. Now that Matthew has become interested in Sienna, I think they may just get married soon!"

Unlike his wife, Matthias was not feeling particularly confident that the information his wife shared was factual.

As Matthew's brother, he knew a thing or two about Matthew's personality. I don't think it's likely that he accepted Sienna's feelings that easily.

He must have some ulterior motive, or Sienna could have lied about their relationship.

Matthias was strongly inclined to believe the second scenario.

"Yuliana, are you sure you heard Sienna right? If so, why didn't Matthew tell us about them meeting up with each other? Or them going on a date?"

Yuliana paused for a moment, then replied, "Well, I don't really know about that. But think of it, why would they share the details of their date with us? And I don't think that someone quiet like Matthew would tel us anything about his relationship."

"So, you're saying that you have never seen for yourself how their relationship is progressing? You have never seen her getting a call or getting picked up by Matthew for a date, have you?"

Yuliana was stumped.

"But... Sienna went to Tyson Corporation today!"

Matthias sighed. "That doesn't mean a thing! Shermaine has also gone there many times before. Look at her now!"

"..."

Yuliana finally wrapped her head around what her husband was trying to convey.

"Alright... How about... how about we invite the two of them for dinner tomorrow night, and ask them directly? That way, we can make things clear once and for all, right?" Yuliana was still confident that Sienna had already charmed Matthew with her confidence and charisma.

On the other hand, Matthias did not feel the same way.

Furthermore, he knew that Matthew was in love with Clarissa. Based on Ellie's recent behavior, he concluded that the two of them were still in love and going strong.

Later that day, Matthew talked to Clarissa about Sienna's visit to the company.

Clarissa listened to him talk as she lay in his arms, collecting game coins on her phone with her "wealthy" friends. His words did not anger her at all. Instead, she felt rather amused. Changing her posture and flipping around, she locked gazes with Matthew and gently stroked his face with a radiant smile on her face.

"Matthew... you're such a good boy! Hah..."

She was glad that he had not kept his conversation with Sienna a secret from her.

Smack! She boldly gave him a playful kiss on the lips.
