You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 259

Clarissa could barely hold herself back when she heard Damian’s sweet words.

While she hugged and kissed him, she praised, “Whose darling are you? Why are you so good at making others happy?”

“Of course I’m from the Quigleys! I’m your darling, Mommy.”

When Damian broke out into a grin, he looked exactly like Clarissa when she smiled.

Seeing how affectionate the mother and son pair were, Catherine could not help but laugh and chide, “That’s enough. You’ve just returned, so there’s still so much filth clinging to you. Change your clothes, quickly. Otherwise, you’ll make our darling Damian Quigley dirty and spread germs to him.”

The corners of Clarissa’s lips twitched at that. Sometimes, Catherine would call Damian via his real name. Clarissa was not bothered, for she meant it as a term of endearment.

Sometimes, the little boy was not that thoughtful. He was adorable when he spoke sweetly. However, whenever he acted fiercely, Clarissa wished for nothing more than to shove him back into her womb.

In her fury, she would tend to call him by his full name. As time passed, Catherine picked it up.

Clarissa changed out of her clothes and washed up before returning. Then, she started cuddling with her dear son affectionately.

At that moment, Clarissa was still patient enough to play with him.

However, when it was time to eat, Damian was not so adorable anymore.

“I won’t eat!”

The little kid kept playing with the toy car Ryler had given him earlier, refusing to eat.

Clarissa had been suppressing her anger as she did not want to be furious at him. Yet, within three days, he had been spoilt by Catherine. Extremely restless, he only wanted to play with his toys. It had been a tough feat to convince him to eat. However, after he took a few mouthfuls, he stood up again, sat onto his twist car, and zoomed around the house.

He did not even notice that his mother’s temper was already reaching its limit.

With the veins on her forehead throbbing, Clarissa slammed Damian’s bowl on the table and ordered in a deep voice, “Damian!”

Damian was so excited and engrossed with what he was doing that he did not hear her.

“Damian Quigley!”

When he heard his full name, he immediately froze.

Every time his mother said his full name, it meant that she was truly furious.

The young boy probably had a lot of past experiences where he had been taught a stern lesson. Hence, he immediately abandoned his twist car, ran over, and climbed onto his designated seat. Then, he grabbed his bowl and started shoving mouthfuls of food into his mouth.

As he ate, he raised his head carefully. When he noticed Clarissa’s grim expression and silence, a wave of fear washed through him.

Catherine teased with a smile, “See, your mother’s angry because you refused to eat obediently.”

On the other hand, Clarissa ignored her son’s innocent gaze. She remained silent as she ate her own food.

However, Damian knew how to appease his mother.

After looking at her for a long while and not seeing her smile, he suddenly blurted in the middle of eating, “Mommy, the food you cooked tastes really amazing!”

“I didn’t cook it. The maid cooked it.”

Clarissa could see right through his flattery.

“Even if you didn’t cook it, I still feel extremely happy because you are eating with me!”

“Pfft!”

Clarissa could not help but burst out laughing. When she glanced at him and noticed his appeasing smile, she remarked, “I wonder who you take after.”

Catherine piped up, “Who else? You were even more eloquent than him when you were younger.”

Damian chimed in, “I take after Mommy!”

Clarissa would never admit that she used to act so gratuitously.

She only managed to coax Damian to sleep late at night. She stood up afterward and headed to the courtyard. With a thick coat wrapped around her, she chatted with Matthew.

The house they were living in was a small villa where Clarissa had moved into. As she had a child, they required a larger space. If they lived in an apartment, Damian would definitely kick up a ruckus and annoy their neighbors. Since she had enough money, she bought a small villa and moved without alerting the Lesters.

When Clarissa mentioned to Matthew how obsequiously Damian acted, she lamented, “That little boy is such a sweet-talker! Sometimes, it’s really amusing when he acts so appeasingly. I don’t know who he takes after.”

Matthew immediately pointed out, “You, of course. Don’t you know that you look exactly like him when you’re trying to flatter me?”

“No way!”

Clarissa denied it immediately. She would never admit to that.

Matthew chuckled. Fine, I’ll let her deny it. I can already imagine how Damian looks like when he smiles. The way his eyes crinkle definitely resembles Clarissa’s.

When Damian was born, he looked identical to her. It’s as if he’s only her child. I’m completely out of the picture.

Luckily, his face shape is starting to resemble mine.

Clarissa chatted with Matthew till midnight before she hung up and returned to the house.
