You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 214

Clarrisa pointed out the problem from last night, but Matthew was not surprised.

Obviously, he did it on purpose.

Clarrisa pursed her lips and stared at Matthew in silence.

Matthew, on the other hand, lifted his head and responded with a gentle grin.

“Did you do that on purpose?”

“It’s about time, Clare.” It was as if he was trying to coax a child to accept a decision that he had already made.

Clarissa was tongue-tied, but she still gave him a wry smile and continued eating.

Neither did she agree nor reject his suggestion.

Matthew’s smile became even more pronounced.

“What do you think?” he still asked insistently.

Clarissa took a deep breath, raised her head, and looked into his eyes.

“Since you’ve already done it, what else can I say? Can you take it back?”

An awkward silence ensued after she threw out the question.

Clarissa was so embarrassed that she wished she could turn back in time and swallowed those words.

But it was too late.

She even tried hiding under the table after spewing those words, but that move had only deepened her embarrassment.

Matthew froze for a bit but responded with a chuckle.

Clarissa was too embarrassed to see him, so she decided to curl up under the table.

Instead of comforting her, Matthew burst into laughter. She was rather speechless at his reaction.

Clarissa was so bored that she started tapping her index finger on the ground, but all of a sudden, Matthew grabbed her finger and carried her into his arms.

“Oh, Clare.”

Matthew was still all smiles when he looked at her. Clarissa hid her face in his chest as she refused to have any eye contact with him.

She then pinched his waist as a punishment for teasing her but stopped when she began to feel heavy breathing above her head.

Matthew looked at her and smiled wryly.

He might be an invincible man, but he was also made of flesh and blood. The fact that the woman he loved pinched him so hard made the pain more difficult to endure.

Matthew gently pinched Clarissa’s chin, forcing her to look at him.

Clarissa pushed his hand away and covered her face with her hands while lowering her head. “Forget everything I said earlier. Just pretend that you didn’t hear anything.”

Matthew chuckled and played along. “All right then. As you wish.”

Clarissa finally lifted her head and looked at him. But upon seeing him smiling, she could not help but blush instantly.

“All right, stop it! Let’s eat.”

She turned around, walked away from him, and returned to her seat. Yet, Matthew still refused to look away. She gave in after letting out a sigh and decided to finish her meal as soon as possible.

After the meal, Clarissa looked at him and asked, “Don’t you have work today?”

Matthew grinned, held her hand, and walked her to the living room. He then tenderly caressed her hair and said in a deep voice, “I want to have a kid with you, Clare.”

Clarissa pouted and mumbled, “Okay…I didn’t say no”

Matthew’s mouth curled into a smile. He gave her a peck on the forehead and looked at her lovingly.

“Thank you, Clare,” Matthew expressed his gratitude very formally.

Clarissa looked at him and smiled. “Don’t thank me first. There’s no guaranteed success anyway. We should just let nature take its course, so don’t you dare rush me or give me pressure!”

“All right,” Matthew chuckled, “No pressure!”

Pfft!

Clarissa, too, responded with a chuckle. “Okay, stop the drama. Go to your office now. I still have some important things to do.”

Matthew raised his brows. “More important than spending time with me?”

Clarissa rolled her eyes at him. “All the shopping, okay?”

She then pushed her away and went upstairs to change. She was hoping he could give her a ride to Ellie’s studio.

Ellie had found a few helpers to help her out with the shopping carnival, and Clarissa was one of them. Not only was she impressed by the number of products Ellie sold during her live stream, but she was also taken aback by the spending power of the consumers.

The sales were so good that Clarissa had to stay and help her until midnight. If it were not for Matthew, who came to take Clarissa home, Ellie would not have let her go.

While they were on their way home, Clarissa showed Matthew what she had splurged on.

“I bought a lot of stuff too. Look, these are all discounted items. But come to think of it, I’m not even sure why I bought them in the first place. I’ve been a spendthrift, haven’t I?”

Matthew smiled and took a serious glance at her shopping list. “Do whatever that makes you happy. I’m pretty sure you’re not capable of emptying our family wealth, anyway.”
