You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 489

Although Damian didn't understand what his mom meant, he could sense the sarcasm in her words.

Without another word, Clarissa returned to the house and didn't bother to explain herself.

Feeling lost, Damian went to his room to pack. By the time he came out, there was no sign of anyone else.

When he asked the staff, he was informed that everyone, including Wrenna, had gone fishing. Consequently, he was saddened by the fact that he had been left behind.

Glancing at the pond downstairs, he too headed over.

When Henry saw him approaching, he got up right away.

“Wren, let's go and pick some fruits. There's a lot of vegetables that are ready for harvesting.”

“Henry, let me help you.”

“No, you should stay here and watch my fishing rod.”

It was obvious that Henry wanted to keep them away from each other.

Left without a choice, Damian took over Henry's seat and kept an eye on his fishing rod. When he turned back to look, Wrenna gave him an innocent look and even gestured him to do his best.

The next moment, Henry came in between their line of sight and quickly pulled Wrenna away.

At that moment, a mocking laugh rang out beside Damian.

Turning to see who it was, Clarissa stuck her tongue out at him before leaning on her husband's shoulder. With a smug expression, she continued to sneer.

Huh, my childish mother!

“Hey, Damian, don't you think you deserve it?”

Damian kept mum.

“Hey, Damian, I'm asking you a question. Why aren't you answering? Don't ignore your own mother or I'll get your dad to teach you a lesson.”

Matthew swept his gaze over to Damian as a warning.

Damian had to obey his mom simply because he was her son.

Left without a choice, Damian's lips twitched as he turned around and gave Clarissa a smile.

“Mom, you're right. I deserved it.”

“Haha... of course you do for being such a dimwit. If your dad had been as slow as you were, you wouldn't even have been born.”

Clarissa even gave Matthew a cheerful kiss as his reward.

“Hubby, you're amazing! You're so much more capable than your son.”

Damian hated to hear his mother praise his dad at his expense. However, he didn't have much of a choice.

“Damian, it was love at first sight for your dad the moment he saw me. After that, he tried his best to get close to me and shelter me from any possible harm. Obviously, he had his share of mistakes. But, unlike you, he was never in doubt about his own feelings.”

“Haha. Yes, I know Dad is great.”

“Hmph, I'm glad you do. However, not that I want to nag, but weren't you very smart when you were a kid? How did you end up being so foolish?”

The entire time Clarissa was admonishing Damian, Matthew had caught a bunch of fish. Unfortunately, Damian had no luck at all.

Amidst Clarissa's nagging, Damian's mind began to wander. In fact, he was wondering if even the fish were sick of the dressing down his mom was giving him.

Finally, there was some movement on his fishing rod. Springing to his feet, he pulled up the rod while Clarissa stopped her nagging.

However, when Damian reeled it in, all he caught was a tiny fish.

The fish provided Clarissa with further ammunition. “Look at how useless you are. You can't even catch a proper fish. Your foolishness has caused you to lose your wife while the fishes don't even want to take your bait.”

Consequently, Damian admitted that he had it coming.

In fact, he had never felt so dejected before.

Suddenly, Wrenna's voice rang out as she waved at Clarissa with a smile. Behind her was Henry holding a basket of vegetables.

“Aunt Clarissa.”

Getting to her feet in delight, Clarissa waved back.

After giving her son a disapproving look, Clarissa sighed. Despite being angry at him, she still had his best interest at heart.

“Damian, where are your manners? Look at how full Henry's hands are. What are you waiting for?”

Realizing what his mom was getting at, Damian got to his feet and hurried over to Henry's side.

“Henry, let me help you.”

Henry handed Damian the baskets without protest. After that, he pulled Wrenna aside and suggested, “Let's see how Clarissa is doing. Damian, take the baskets back and tell the kitchen that they can start preparing lunch. Also, bring the fish you have caught along with you and keep an eye on the kitchen. There's no need for you to return.”

Speechless, Damian had no choice but to comply.

After smiling at Damian when Henry wasn't looking, she followed her dad over to see Clarissa.

With that, Damian took the fish back obediently.

Taking a seat beside Clarissa, Wrenna took off her hat and fanned herself. Clarissa then used a tissue to wipe her sweat for her.

After she saw her dad heading to her mom's side, Wrenna whispered to Clarissa with a smile, “Aunt Clarissa, I hope you're not angry at how my dad is treating Damian. He is just getting bitter with age which makes him easily agitated.”

When Leia gets married... Tsk-tsk...

Haha, that's not the case at all!
