You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 282

With the arrival of his son, Matthew resented that he was not able to spend much time having fun with him.

However, he also had a job. He couldn’t just drop everything without a care and just stay at home.

If not for Clarissa’s vehement refusal, Matthew would have really brought Damian to work with him.

That day, Matthew had been dawdling. He had already eaten breakfast but was still reluctant to leave for work.

Matthew was waiting for Damian to wake up. He greeted the boy, hugged him, and played with him for a while before leaving.

This was also why Clarissa was urging him to leave.

“Goodness, do you know how long Donnie has been waiting for you? You said it would only take a while, but it’s been half an hour!”

As Clarissa was nagging at him from the sidelines, Matthew was still feeding Damian. His meticulousness made Clarissa a little jealous.

“Matthew, didn’t you hear what I said? Why aren’t you leaving?”

Clarissa tutted, seemingly irritated.

Matthew raised an eyebrow and glanced at her. He put down the cutlery, patted his son’s head, and walked over to Clarissa. Matthew snaked an arm around her waist and pulled her close into his embrace.

He angled his head and brushed his lips over her mouth, but Clarissa tried to push him away. She struggled a little before Matthew finally let her go.

He furrowed his brows, but Clarissa prodded his chest hard, motioning him to look the other way.

The pair turned around to look at Damian, who was staring at them with his mouth smeared full of ketchup. The kiss had caught his eye. His eyes bore a strong resemblance to that of Clarissa’s, which exuded an innocent air. He looked at them curiously, but there was also a hint of shame.

Matthew was the first to recover from his surprise.

Indifferently, he placed his arms around Clarissa before turning to look at his son. “Damian, your parents have a good relationship. Daddy loves Mommy, and Mommy loves Daddy too!”

Damian struggled to climb off his chair, then ran over to them.

Matthew reached down to pick him up since Damian ran straight towards them.

Both their faces were stained with ketchup, and Clarissa couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She looked at Matthew enquiringly, but he did not seem to mind.

Damian’s voice sounded cheerful when he responded. “Damian loves Mommy and Daddy too!”

“Alright, I know you love us. But let’s go back to the table, darling. Daddy has to go to work. You must let daddy earn money so he can buy you more gifts, okay?”

Damian was set down again. After hearing his mother’s words, he then waved at Matthew.

“Daddy, you can go to work now. Make money and buy gifts for me!”

Matthew grinned and shook his head with a smirk. Reluctantly, he left.

After Matthew left, Clarissa pouted and muttered, “I have never seen you this reluctant before.”

“Mommy?”

Damian did not catch what his mother said.

Clarissa picked up some tissue and wiped his mouth clean. “I said that Daddy really loves you. Do you love Daddy too?”

Damian nodded enthusiastically.

“What was that? You love Daddy more than me?”

Damien pondered over this for a moment, as if he were carefully weighing out the gravity of his answer.

His hesitance made Clarissa a little unhappy.

She playfully pinched her son’s ear and giggled. “Well, you’re so mean! Didn’t you say that you love me the most?”

“Mommy, I love you the most! I love you so so so so so much! More than my toys!”

Damian’s assertion seemed to satisfy Clarissa.

Mostly because she knew that he loved his toys so much.

Clarissa smiled and kissed the top of his head. “Alright, eat up.”

Damian smiled very flatteringly before busying himself with his food.

Clarissa did not bring her son along with her but instead left him in Zen Highlands. He could then explore the grounds on his own for a while.

Although Damian was a bit sad and started crying at Clarissa’s departure, he was easily coaxed with chocolates and a new toy. He then waved at Clarissa.”

“You can go off to work, Mommy. I’ll be a good boy and wait for you to come home.”

Seeing how her son reacted, Clarissa was worried that someone could easily kidnap him by luring him with toys and food.
