You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 248

With the hair done, makeup done, and the impeccable dress on the perfect birthday girl, Clarissa exuded the aura of a goddess.

Her exciting sex life with Matthew had also made her feel confident and desirable from within.

Clarissa had transformed into the beautiful lady in red.

That was also Matthew’s first thought upon seeing Clarissa in the dressing room. She’s absolutely stunning!

Ellie caught sight of Matthew’s passionate gaze and thoughtfully left the dressing room, closing the door such that the two of them could have some intimate time as a couple.

Her voice sweet and alluring as nectar, Clarissa spoke first.

“Are you done staring?”

She chuckled a little, feeling shy.

Matthew did not reply to her immediately but walked up to her, put a hand around her waist, and pulled her into his arms in one smooth motion.

Looking up at him, Clarissa seemed absolutely delighted. Her smiley eyes fluttered like glistening gems.

With a cheeky smile, she decided to give him a “friendly” reminder. “I’m just going to say this first, but no kissing is allowed, okay?”

Matthew’s eyes darkened a little. Eyeing his little girl closely, he stroked her jaw with his other hand. Clarissa twitched a little when his fingers grazed against her lips, and so he simply touched the corners of her lips lightly.

“How pretty!”

It was a genuine compliment that made Clarissa feel butterflies in her chest.

The simple remark felt completely different when said by a man she loved so deeply.

Matthew’s genuinely dazed expression also felt wholesome.

Grinning, Clarissa said, “Matthew… You have really good taste!”

Matthew also chuckled a little. Pinching her jaw playfully, he lightly pecked on her forehead and eyes.

“Yeah. I only have eyes for the best.”

Tilting her head, Clarissa replied, “Me too.”

It was a rare occasion for two humble people to be sweet-talking each other like that. Yet, they did not feel the slightest embarrassment, and every word was heartfelt.

A single door blocked off all the noise of the people outside.

Clarissa hugged Matthew tightly and nuzzled her face against his chest like a lazy little kitten.

“There are so many people out there. Hehe… What if I go outside now and someone falls in love with me? What if someone wants to steal me away from you?”

“They wouldn’t dare.”

Matthew answered to her jokes with a firm, serious tone.

Sniggering, Clarissa feigned a dissatisfied face and said, “But what if someone does do it? What are you going to do?”

This was one of the instances where girlfriends would throw test questions at their boyfriends as a testament to their love.

Matthew pursed his lips. He was more than willing to play along.

“Alright then, let’s say some ignorant fool does try to steal you away. I would beat him up without hesitation and get rid of him. As for you, I shall lock you up at home to remind you that you’re mine and mine only.”

“No, no! You should be gentler with me! You need to treat me with so much love such that I could no longer live without you. As long as I don’t ever leave your side, no one would be able to steal me away!” Clarissa pouted.

Raising his eyebrows, Matthew said, “So, you’re saying someone might sway you, and you’ll willingly leave me?”

Matthew just handed Clarissa a UNO reverse card.

Clarissa sighed. “Alright, alright. I shouldn’t have asked. Why would I ever leave you? There’s no way that I would even think about it!”

“It’s good that you know. It’s probably impossible for you to live me in this lifetime. In fact, I would never leave you even in the afterlife.” Matthew smiled as he caressed her forehead.

Acting shocked and terrified, Clarissa replied, “Oh, my! Oh… no! I’m so scared! Hah… “

She burst into laughter. All of a sudden, she leaped upward and pecked Matthew on his lips.

“I will never leave you too.”

It’s only right to return this kiss. Now that Matthew had a good enough excuse to kiss his little girl, without caring about the lipstick, he bent down and kissed her deeply, holding onto her jaw firmly. I mean, I can always help her put the lipstick back on later.

I’ve heard of couple activities where husbands put on makeup for their wives. Hah… So, there’s nothing wrong with this, right? Hah…

…

Meanwhile, outside, Ellie was looking at the guests who had arrived from the second floor. There were those whom she knew and those whom she did not.

Along with his female companion of the night, Jeremy also came upstairs. Glancing at the door of the dressing room, his foxy eyes sparkled in amusement.

“Wow, are they still in there? Do they need another hour to finish?”

Ellie rolled her eyes. “Mr. Jeremy, they aren’t you. Only you would do something like that.”

“Hmph. You make me seem like a desperate old man. Well, of course, if I’m with a really beautiful lady, something like that might happen, am I right?”

He turned to his female companion, who chuckled shyly. She whispered something in his ears, and the two looked really intimate.

The two of them were really getting on Ellie’s nerves. “Gosh, that’s enough. Mr. Jeremy, have all the guests arrived?”

“I think so. By the way, something has been really bothering me. Why did you invite Sienna? What for? I really have no idea of what you women are thinking.”

At that very moment, Ellie caught sight of Sienna, who was talking to someone downstairs. She donned a simple, minimalistic dress and had a neutral expression. Going strong, isn’t she? Or is she just faking it?

“There’s no need for you to know. Anyways, I’m sure that Clare is the one for Matthew and that Sienna woman had better give up on him.”

Jeremy raised an eyebrow and said with a sigh, “Hmph. Actually, Sienna is pretty good-looking. Poor her… “

Ellie glared at him. “Mr. Jeremy! Oh, are you feeling sorry for her? Please go for it and show her your charms!”
