You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 406

Yarick felt depressed because he was being blamed.

However, he genuinely thought that it was delicious.

Clarissa did take a bite of the barbeque meat before she threw up.

What followed next was utter chaos. Matthew carried Clarissa inside and even called for a doctor. He became a nervous wreck as if something terrible had happened.

Yarick was shocked. Matthew’s reaction made it look like he had poisoned the food.

He quickly explained. “I didn’t do anything. It’s just grilled meat, and nothing else was added yet…”

When they saw how anxious Yarick was, everyone else couldn’t resist laughing.

Feeling exasperated, Yarick grabbed Jeremy’s collar and threatened, “What are you laughing at? What?”

Pushing him away, Jeremy replied with a smile, “Yarick, can you stop making a fool of yourself? This has nothing to do with you. It’s just Clarissa’s stomach acting up.”

“What do you mean her stomach? That…”

Suddenly, Yarick froze when the answer dawned upon him.

He roared, “Damn it! Clarissa’s pregnant? Sigh, why didn’t Matt tell me? I was all worked up for nothing. It’s wonderful news after all.”

“Don’t be stupid. The baby is still in its first trimester.”

“So why can’t he share it?”

Everyone rolled their eyes.

Having learned his lesson, Yarick tsk-tsked before concluding, “Matt, well done!”

“Haha…”

Ellie couldn’t help but laugh, causing everyone else to join her. They were simply amused by Yarick’s antics.

Meanwhile, Clarissa’s morning sickness was triggered, and she was unable to stop vomiting.

Everything she ate was thrown out. Any strong smells in the house would generate a similar reaction, be it detergent, shampoo, body wash…

She couldn’t tolerate any fragrance at all, including those from food.

Even if the food was tasteless, she would also puke.

Every day, Matthew would watch her go through the same routine. He was shocked as to how torturous it was to bear a child.

In fact, he couldn’t imagine the extent of how painful it could be.

Regardless of how much time he spent on theory, nothing could beat the stimulation of the actual experience.

Once again, Clarissa puked till she almost lost consciousness. Without any strength left, Matthew quickly hugged her in support.

With his eyes reddened, Matthew could hardly hold back his tears when he saw how much she was suffering.

Holding her tightly, he fed her some water. After he put down the cup, she was already asleep in his arms.

Even then, her brows were knitted as if she was still in discomfort.

Matthew kissed her on her forehead, sympathizing and feeling heartbroken at the same time.

Perhaps, she can only get some proper rest in her sleep.

Given the circumstances, he sought help from all sorts of doctors. Unfortunately, no one could provide him with a solution for morning sickness.

Everyone reassured him that it was normal. Once Clarissa got through the period, she would be fine. However, no one knew how long it would last would be.

However, Matthew no longer had the patience to see her suffer for another day.

In fact, when he saw how she hugged him while crying in discomfort the other day, he had the urge to abort the child instead.

Unfortunately, aborting the child would cause greater damage to her health.

Hence, Matthew regretted ever wanting a second child.

He felt that he should have been the one to suffer.

Usually, mornings were the worst for Clarissa. She would puke the moment she woke up. During meals, she would vomit a few more times. After meals, she would continue to throw up. If there was nothing to stimulate her, she would largely be fine for the rest of the day. At night, she would go to bed early to avoid any discomfort.

One morning, she suddenly felt nauseous the moment she opened her eyes. Out of habit, she got out of bed and headed for the bathroom. Matthew quickly carried her as he was well trained by now. Inside the bathroom, she threw up…

Blaargh…

Just when Clarissa was retching, she suddenly heard sounds of barfing beside her.

Stunned, she turned and saw Matthew retching at the same time. He looked miserable and seemed to be suffering. In fact, he didn’t appear to be pretending at all.

Staring at him in shock, she felt her nausea disappear.

“Hubby, a-are you alright? Is there something wrong with your stomach?”

Matthew felt terrible after vomiting. His stomach churned while his throat was contracting, making him nauseous.

Waving his hands, he smiled at Clarissa to reassure her.

“I’m fine. Are you not feeling well? Wait for a while. Stay here while I pour you a cup of water. I… blaargh…”

Before he could finish, Matthew continued puking.

Half an hour later…

Matthew and Clarissa were both slumped on the sofa, feeling drained and miserable.

Looking at Clarissa, he noticed that some color had returned to her face even though she still looked pale.

The doctor smiled at them both. “Couvade… in other words, Mr. Tyson is… erm, hehe… pregnant…”

While Clarissa was stunned by the doctor’s words, Matthew’s expression darkened.
