You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 352

Matthew asked Clarissa to turn around and caressed her head. He moved her hands away from her face and responded with an intimate gaze.

“It’s fine as long as it’s something from you! In fact, it’s the best gift I can ever ask for!”

The words of reassurance failed to put a smile on Clarissa’s face. Instead, she responded with a frown.

“Damian has ruined the book that’s supposed to be a unique gift for you! Are you sure you don’t mind? It’s supposed to be a surprise during New Year’s eve! I guess it’s more of a shock rather than a surprise now!”

Clarissa turned around and glared in the direction of their son’s bedroom. She thought it was about time to teach their son a lesson for the things he had done.

On the other hand, Matthew chuckled and raised Clarissa’s chin against her will.

He leaned over and whispered, “Don’t you think it’s quite a unique gift from you and our son? We’ll consider it a surprise from you and him!”

Clarissa took another peek at the doodles that were all over the book and felt another strong urge to cry.

Immediately after Matthew figured out the things going on in her mind, he held her firmly in between his arms and asserted in a gentle tone, “Just give yourself a break, okay? I’ll teach him a lesson and have him bear the consequences of his actions soon!”

He knew he had to say something to console the upset woman. Otherwise, she might let loose of her emotions and take things out on their beloved son.

Nonetheless, Clarissa had no intention to give up just yet as she was certain it was one of Matthew’s attempts to deceive her.

She turned around and reprimanded him, “I’m pretty sure it’s another lie of yours! In fact, you’re the reason he’s such a naughty boy! You’re supposed to discipline him instead of spoiling him! What are we supposed to do if he turns into a delinquent in the future?”

She wouldn’t stop picking on him to take out the disappointment she had been holding back. Matthew had no choice but to play along with her to keep her occupied.

“Y-Yes—Uh-huh—Alright—”

Matthew listened to the upset woman without interrupting her. Otherwise, he might be the one who would have to face her wrath.

After she had enough of complaining, Matthew brought her back to their room and held her firmly in between his arms.

Things got increasingly intimate between the duo as they started reading the book Clarissa had prepared.

“Is this the way you feel the first time you see me? Are you afraid of me? Well, you can’t deny it’s love at first sight for you as well, can you? I shouldn’t have left you alone back then!”

“Stop it!” Clarissa couldn’t take it anymore as the man unveiled the things she had in mind without holding back.

She glared at him in the eyes and said, “Had you taken advantage of me back then, I might not have fallen for you!”

Matthew begged to differ. He said, “No! In fact, you would be head over heels in love with me way ahead of the initial timeline because we were a match made in heaven!”

“Stay away from me! You’re such a shameless man!”

Matthew burst into laughter and pinched the blushing woman’s cheek. He then leaned over and kissed her. “Are you sure you want me to stay away from you?”

“I-I—H-Hey! S-Stop it!”

Ellie, who was outside of their room, found out they were in the middle of a great time when she leaned over to eavesdrop on their conversation.

She then brought Damian downstairs with her and told the little boy, “You need to stay away from your parents for the time being as they are in the middle of something. Also, you have to stop getting on your mother’s nerves. Otherwise, she’s going to pick on you again.”

Damian, who had mastered the art of putting on a pitiable front to win others’ sympathy, stared at Ellie with his lips pursed in an aggrieved manner.

Ellie chuckled and said, “Haha! It turns out you’re quite a great actor, huh? It’s not a big deal—everyone goes through it in their life!”

The little boy stared at Ellie with his head tilted in confusion. He asked, “Were you a naughty girl when you were young?”
