You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 281

After Matthew carried Damian into the car, Clarissa got in after them.

That day, Kyle, the chauffeur, met Damian for the very first time.

Yet, there was nothing awkward about it since Damian was the type of child who looked cute to outsiders.

Moreover, Damian had called him “Mister” very cutely, causing Kyle to almost lose focus while driving.

Before getting into the car, Clarissa had noticed that it was not Matthew’s usual car. Instead, it was an MPV that was more suitable for their family and the nanny to ride along in.

She was not surprised about it, since he had already considered and planned everything in detail previously.

She then turned to look at Damian. He was sitting on the child car seat as he looked at his father, whom he had not seen in a long time. Just a while ago, he had called him “Daddy” without a hint of unfamiliarity. However, he was looking curiously at his father then.

He stared at Matthew, who had turned behind to look at him. Meanwhile, Matthew did not respond and simply let him do so.

After watching him for a long time, Damian suddenly asked, “Daddy, why do you want to look at me?”

“If you’re not looking at me, how do you know I’m looking at you?”

Unexpectedly, the question was turned back to him. However, he was a smart boy. If he did not understand something, he would just change the topic.

“Daddy, is this D City?”

Ever since Matthew saw both the mother and his son, the smile had not left his face. He looked as if he was satisfied with everything in the world and had a fulfilling life.

The smile was always there even while he answered his son’s questions in a gentle tone.

He was a significant figure in the business world but had become a gentle, soft man in front of his son. Although he looked like a strict father, it was all just an illusion.

At that moment, Matthew still had a smile on him as he answered his son’s various questions.

In the meantime, Clarissa called Catherine to report their safe landing. Even though she did not mention Matthew during the call, Catherine would still know.

It was tacit knowledge.

As soon as she hung up, she heard Damian say, “Daddy, Mommy said you would buy many toys for me. Just as many as I have back in W City.”

Yet, before Matthew could even agree, Clarissa crushed her son’s dreams.

“When did I say that? I only said I’d buy you toys, not that I’d buy you as many as you have in W City. Damian Quigley, don’t change my words.”

He then smiled cutely and asked, “Mommy, what does that mean?”

Rolling her eyes at him, she squeezed his soft cheeks. “Damian, stop acting cute! Also, don’t give me that crap. I’m talking about your toys. You can have them, but not too many. Do you understand?”

Pretending not to understand, he smiled at her.

There were only two situations in which Damian showed such a smile—either he was pretending that he did not understand anything or after knowing that he had caused some trouble.

Knowing that side of him too well, she then looked over at Matthew, her gaze seemingly saying, “Look at your son. He’s so sneaky.”

However, Matthew was, in fact, feeling rather proud. Consequently, Clarissa could not help but feel helpless looking at his prideful and joyful gaze.

Nevertheless, he had not interacted with Damian for a long time. Thus, she wanted to see if he would still look at his son so proudly sometime later.

Soon, they reached Zen Highlands. Once he got off the car, Damian began to put on his exaggerated performance.

“Wow… Daddy’s house is so big… Mommy, I really like this place…”

Clarissa rolled her eyes at that. He was clearly taking it as a performance.

On the other hand, Matthew was happy. He picked his son up and said, “This isn’t Daddy’s house. It’s Daddy’s, Mommy’s, and Damian’s. It’s our home.”

“Really? Our home?” he said with widened eyes. The innocence and surprise he exuded was a pleasant sight to see.

After entering the house and greeting the maid, he then started his surprised exclamations again.

“Wow… I really like it here. The color is so pretty…”

When he noticed his new toys, he exclaimed, “Wow! Thank you for buying me toys, Daddy. Are all these for me? I really, really like it…”

“You’re really great, Daddy! I really love you…”

Despite his exaggerated words, everyone was still delighted to hear him speak, for his words were glorified by his smiley eyes and the fact that he was speaking so enthusiastically.

Ultimately, children were more expressive, so Damian was no exception.

Clarissa could not be bothered with her child’s actions to show his excitement, Clarissa tidied his room and his many toys before calling her office to inform them that she had returned to D City.

After that, she helped Julia prepare some food. Although Julia had already prepared a meal that children would enjoy, Clarissa knew her son’s preferences.

Thus, she made him his favorite dish, pasta with minced beef.

Most of the time, Damian liked to eat meat but rarely would eat vegetables. Resultantly, Clarissa had attempted a variety of methods to prepare foods so that he would eat more vegetables.
