You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 422

Chapter 422 It Is Warm Wherever You Are

“Can you stop that, Matt? It's your bachelor party, for Pete's sake. Can't we have some fun?”

After he was done replying to Clarissa, Matthew said, “What bachelor party? I'm already married for years.” In other words, he was no bachelor anymore.

Yarick and the gang thought he had a point.

Matthew looked at the photo Clarissa sent him. Leia and Damian were sleeping together, while Clarissa was beside them, making a peace sign.

That's so adorable.

The more he looked at it, the more he wanted to be with them and hug them all. It was a shame he couldn't see them at the moment though.

Henry came over to see what was making Matthew smile. When he saw the photo, he clicked his tongue jealously.

“Can you stop that, Matt? Have some mercy on the bachelors. I can't even get hitched.” The more he talked about it, the sadder he looked. He tried to drown himself out with alcohol, but it only made him feel worse.

“I didn't do anything wrong, did I? I mean, yeah, I dumped Yaala, but that's just a one-time thing. I regretted it and treat her like a queen now. Isn't that enough? Why won't she marry me? Why won't she have my kids? Do you have any idea how painful that is, Matt?”

Matthew frowned, while Jeremy quickly dragged Henry away.

Hey, this is a bachelor party. Why are you guys talking about women?

Yarick piped up, “Man, I want a girlfriend too. At least someone who can cook and clean so I don't have to fuss over my dinner.”

“Oi, shut up, will you? This is a bachelor party. No women, only guys.”

Out of everyone here, only Justin didn't have any relationship problems. Everyone else wanted a partner.

Ryler, Yarick, Henry, and even Luke insisted on attending the wedding, but they seemed to have something else planned in mind.

Jeremy was rather annoyed since he wanted to have a bachelor party, but everyone else wouldn't stop talking about women. I'm so done with their sh*t.

...

Matthew texted Clarissa after he came back to the hotel. Once he realized she was still awake, he immediately called her. He was feeling annoyed that night, but the sound of her lovely voice calmed him nerves. “I miss you, Clare.”

And then all the women burst into laughter, with Ellie laughing the loudest.

Matthew frowned. “You think that's funny, don't you, Ellie?”

Ellie realized Matthew was getting angry, so she quickly defended herself, “Calm down, Uncle Matt. That's unbecoming of the groom. We just wanted to know how you guys can stay so deeply in love. Now I see why.

Clarissa blushed. “They wanted to listen in, so...”

“I know, Clare.”

“I think that's enough for us, Uncle Matt. It'd get too mushy for us if we stay around, so you guys keep up.” Ellie laughed and left with the other ladies, leaving Clarissa alone in the room.

Once she was alone, Clarissa apologized softly, “Don't get mad. Ellie and the girls really wanted to listen in, so...”

Matthew smiled. “I'm not mad. It's not a bad thing letting them know how in love we are.”

“Hey, I am not in love with you,” Clarissa retorted, but Matthew only smiled.

Eventually, Matthew's silence made Clarissa blush. Both of them were silent after that, but it was a warm, lovely silence.

Clarissa broke the silence first. “You came back early. I thought it'd be an all-nighter.” Since she heard Jeremy's all-night party plan, she wondered why Matthew was back so early.

Besides, with how playful Jeremy was, he wouldn't let Matthew go until it was late at night. She wondered why it ended so early.

Matthew smiled. “Because they don't want me around.”

“Why?”

“Because I have a family, and they're jealous.”

Clarissa laughed happily. She could imagine how they complained about Matthew, and the thought alone made her smile.

“They have a point, so you should keep your love life to a minimum whenever they're around. Who knows, they might gang up on you if you go too far.”

“They won't. Besides, why can't I share my happiness with them? It's the truth.”

Wow, he can be insufferable.

Clarissa thought Matthew would end up getting ganged on one day, but then she realized nobody would try to beat him up.

They chatted for a long time, so Clarissa eventually yawned, and Matthew ended the call reluctantly. “Um good night. And sleep tight.”

Clarissa smiled, but she didn't end the call yet. “Are you nervous? Excited?”

“Yeah,” Matthew admitted. “I look forward to seeing you in the gown.”

“You've seen it before, haven't you?” Clarissa had tested out the gown, and Matthew saw it before too. But she still thought his reaction was a bit exaggerated.

Goddammit.
