You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 222

Upon returning to Zen Highlands, Matthew went upstairs while Clarissa entered the kitchen after getting changed.

She was in a good mood and felt like making dinner for Matthew.

As the weather was cold, Clarissa decided to whip up a hot meal to warm themselves up.

At the same time, Matthew was standing by the kitchen door with his hands in his pockets while watching her prepare the food.

“Why are you standing there like that?” Clarissa asked with a smile when she saw him through the corner of her eye.

Unbeknownst to her, Matthew found everything she did captivating, including cooking in the kitchen.

Thus, he smiled back at her and said, “So I can admire your beauty, Clare.”

Clarissa blushed when she heard that and decided to ignore him as she focused on making dinner.

Matthew, too, simply watched her from a distance, so he wouldn’t get in the way.

After quite some time, Clarissa turned around and arched an eyebrow at him as she said, “It’s done! Come help me serve it up!”

Wow… She’s even ordering me around now? Matthew chuckled at the thought of that, but he refused to move.

Seeing that he remained stagnant, Clarissa frowned. “What are you waiting for? Oh, I can’t even ask you for a simple favor now, Mr. Tyson?”

“That’s not how you should address me, Clare.”

Clarissa blushed when she realized what he meant.

Jeez… Does this guy enjoy being called “Hubby” that much? Damn it… Ugh… I can’t bring myself to say it…

“You know what? Forget it. I’ll serve it up myself.”

As she was about to serve up the food, Matthew stepped forward and stood in the doorway, blocking her only way out with his huge frame.

She looked up at him and frowned in annoyance.

“Hey, what are you doing? You may not be hungry, but I’m famished! Get out of my way! Are you trying to starve me to death so you can inherit my life savings or something?”

Clarissa’s life savings meant the world to her, but Matthew didn’t understand her humor.

“And just how do you think your life savings will benefit me, Clare?” Matthew asked with an eyebrow raised.

“Alright, I get it… You’re so rich that it wouldn’t make a difference at all! Now, move it!”

Despite that, Matthew refused to move until he got what he wanted. “Clare… Can’t you just address me properly?”

“Matthew Tyson!”

“That’s not what I meant.”

“Uncle Matthew?”

“You know what I’m talking about, Clare.”

Clarissa burned bright red. “It’s just a form of address…”

“Exactly, so why can’t you just say it?”

“Because I’m not used to it!”

“All the more reason for you to use it often, Clare! You’ll get used to it after a while!”

Clarissa quickly brainstormed for an idea and said with a smile, “Don’t you think it’d get old really fast if I keep using it? I think such special terms of endearment should be reserved for special occasions! Wouldn’t you agree?”

Matthew raised an eyebrow at her as he felt her explanation made sense.

He then broke into a mischievous grin as an idea came into mind.

Feeling suspicious, Clarissa took a step back instinctively and narrowed her eyes in response. “What’s with that sinister smile of yours? What are you plotting this time?”

However, Matthew merely chuckled and waved at her. “How could you call this smile sinister? I’m clearly smiling passionately at you!”

Clarissa shook her head helplessly and decided to drop the topic.

Whatever… Who cares what he’s up to anyway?

It didn’t take long before she realized what his plan was when later that night.

At that moment, Matthew was on top of her, and the two of them were about to reach a climax when he suddenly stopped and whispered into her ear, “Clare, won’t you be a good girl and say it?”

His voice snapped Clarissa out of her euphoric state, and she could see that he was using every ounce of willpower he had just to stop himself from climaxing.

My goodness… He’s going this far just to hear me call him “Hubby?” I don’t even know how I feel about his level of self-control here…

She then wrapped her legs tightly around his waist and squeezed with all of her might.

“Ugh… I hate you so much, you meanie!”

When she did that, Matthew tensed up for a second but was able to control himself just yet. He then leaned in and kissed her aggressively on the lips in response.
