You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 368

Fireworks lit the night sky signifying the arrival of a new year.

Clarissa carried Damian, who was sound asleep, in her arms. She was ready to head to bed as she could not stay up any longer.

Meanwhile, Catherine also felt drowsy after the clock struck twelve.

“Damien and I will head to bed first,” Clarissa said.

And by the time she tugged her son in bed, Catherine had already gone back to her room.

When Clarissa got back to her room, however, Matthew was already there.

He was in his pajamas, lying leisurely in wait on Clarissa’s bed with a grin. His gaze was profound and filled with passion.

“Happy new year, Honey,” he said.

At that moment, no matter how much she wanted to chase him out, seeing Matthew like that still put a faint smile on her face.

She did not want to be mad at him on the first day of the new year.

So, she approached the bed, ignoring what happened previously, and smiled at Matthew.

“Happy new year.”

Matthew raised an eyebrow after hearing that, seemingly still waiting for something.

Clarissa chuckled. “Happy new year, Hubby.”

With that, Matthew was satisfied, pulling her straight onto the bed, catching her off guard as he placed his hands on either side of her neck. Matthew then lowered his head and kissed her on the corner of her lips.

“It’s late. Matthew. I’m tired.”

“Oh. That’s disappointing.”

Clarissa knitted her brows, but Matthew smiled and proceeded to lie down before wrapping his arms around Clarissa.

“Alright then. Good night.” His deep voice echoed above Clarissa’s head.

Is he really not going to do anything?

Clarissa was relieved. I doubt he dares to.

As the sound of the fireworks slowly subsided, she was able to fall asleep after a brief moment.

For Matthew, it was the first time in a long time that he got to sleep so soundly and comfortably. He had his wife in his arms, his son in the house. The New Year’s celebration was average, to say the least, but it was the most heartwarming and satisfying one for Matthew.

That night, his sleep was exceptionally peaceful.

When dawn came, the sound of the celebration continued, but the Quigleys were all still sound asleep.

They had nothing going on.

Clarissa and Matthew were sleeping in each other’s arms, but soon enough, Damian was awake, shouting excitedly outside their door.

“Happy new year, Mommy! Happy new year, Daddy!”

He kept knocking at the door.

Matthew was the first to wake up before Clarissa did.

When she saw him heading to the door, Clarissa stopped him.

“Wait!”

She went and took out a gift from the bedside drawer and passed it to Matthew.

Seeing that, it dawned on Matthew, and he grinned. Then, he opened the door to greet Damian’s bright smile.

However, he was mostly happy about the new year gift he was about to receive for the new year.

When he saw the gift in Matthew’s hand, the thrill on his face was visible.

Back then, whenever they went to the mall, Clarissa would often reject his requests when he wanted something. That was when Damien started appreciating the times where his parents would give him gifts.

“Thanks, Daddy! You’re the best!” Damien said as he wrapped his hands around Matthew’s neck.

By then, Clarissa was out of bed and stood beside them with her arms crossed. She looked at them with a wide-eyed smile.

When Damian saw his mother, he immediately altered his statement.

“You’re the best too, Mommy!”

“You cheeky boy!” Clarissa smirked.

“No, I’m not. You are!” Damian responded with a smirk of his own.

“No, Damian. You are the cheeky boy.”

“I’m not! Hahaha.”

The two had a lively exchange early in the morning and took some time before they all headed downstairs.

Meanwhile, Catherine was on a video call with all her friends. A whole group of old ladies was gathered as though they were having a meal, chatting and laughing.

When they got downstairs, Clarissa brought Damian over and greeted everyone in the video call.

Matthew also greeted them politely when he got caught by the camera.
