You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 98

Unwittingly, she had expressed her thoughts aloud, causing Matthew to chuckle with amusement.

It’s no wonder this woman writes novels. She has such an active imagination.

And this isn’t a fetish.

Before meeting Clarissa, he did not have such a fetish at all.

He simply liked her and wanted to be close to her at all times. Even hugging like this brought him happiness and contentment.

In the past, Matthew never understood why men and women often indulged in sex and intimacy. He just couldn’t see the point in it.

To him, women were nothing special other than the fact that they had some advantages over men. Hence, he was often called the master of abstinence as he remained unmoved by the allure of the opposite sex.

However, when he fell for the woman in his arms, his eyes were finally opened to the appeal of the female sex.

Of course, that only applied to the love of his life.

Besides Clarissa, no other woman could captivate him.

Matthew hugged Clarissa tightly and whispered his answer into her ear.

“Clare, I don’t have a fetish for hugging things, and hugging you isn’t a fetish either. It’s because I like you, so I constantly want to be by your side.”

I think we’re soulmates.

When two people are truly in love, they’d constantly want to be by each other’s sides.

I didn’t think that Matthew would feel the same way.

“Hehe…”

Tickled pink, Clarissa giggled uncontrollably and wrapped both arms around Matthew, acting coy as she hugged him tightly.

“Uncle Matthew, my thoughts exactly. Our hearts are connected!”

“Really? Then you should stay by my side at all times. After all, you can work anywhere as long as you have a laptop, right?”

He’s just pushing it now!

I should’ve known that he’d use my words to his advantage.

“I don’t wanna.”

Matthew snorted with discontent. “What happened to ‘our hearts are connected’?”

“Yeah, but that doesn’t mean we should be with each other every second of the day! We possibly have a whole lifetime to be together, so there’s no need to follow each other around day and night, don’t you think so?”

“Since you’ve put it like that, what else is there for me to say?”

Clarissa broke into a triumphant smile. “Absence makes the heart fonder! We should keep an appropriate distance from each other to maintain the romance in our relationship. For example, let’s meet once a week? Or twice? Or we could sleep in separate rooms. Hey, I remember you promised me that we’d sleep in separate rooms-”

That was the end of their one-sided discussion as Matthew shut her up the usual way.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder? Maintain the romance? This is all utter b*llsh*t!

…

Clarissa was trending on the internet again. Although she was not the first nor second on the list, she was still trending nonetheless.

It was because a buyer had posted a screenshot saying that she was mesmerized by this beautiful young lady and bought a bunch of clothes as a result. Later on, she posted a comparison review which turned out to be an appalling sight to behold.

Even so, she expressed that she would continue to stan this live broadcast host and buy whatever clothes she wore.

And the beautiful young lady in question only went by the name Clare and was known to be a personal model for a clothing business. The buyer also stated that one could go to the store’s official website to save more of Clare’s high-definition photos as a private collection.

When Clarissa saw this hot topic, she couldn’t help but wonder if this was a bad year for her. Otherwise, why would she keep trending on the internet for no apparent reason?

Following this hot topic were many discussions among some insiders, Clarissa’s ex-classmates, and friends.

This is the campus belle of D University from back then. Her yearbook photo is proof that she’s both beautiful and smart!

Wow! Clare is so awesome! She graduated from a prestigious university!

So what if she graduated from a prestigious university? Nowadays, people like them only prostitute themselves after joining the society.

To the commenter above, you’re just jealous. It’s obvious you don’t have the looks or the brains, so get outta here!

After a detailed examination, I found no traces of plastic surgery. She’s an all-natural beauty. I’m officially a fan! Can I have Clare’s Twitter and phone number? Please notice me, Clare!

Clarissa felt relieved that none of them knew her full name and hence, would not be able to link her to her Twitter account that had the username @clarissa.quigley.

You’re all idiots. Men always fall head over heels for beautiful women like her. I was in the same school as she and I witnessed her toying with countless boys. She enjoyed having them eat out of her hand, basking in all the attention they gave her. She even turned on one of her classmates by stealing her boyfriend. A few days ago, we met again at an ex-classmate’s wedding. She has a sugar daddy and was even so smug about it.

That makes sense. Women like her are only nice to look at but are actually revolting on the inside.

B*llsh*t. Do you have evidence to back that?

I don’t believe that. Clare is always so shy. During the live broadcast, she was blushing the whole time and it didn’t look like she was faking it.

You fell for that? Please, she’s just good at pretending.

Nah, I don’t care whether she was pretending. I’m Clare’s fan because of that perfect face of hers anyway.
