You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 461

Chapter 461 Back To Her Old Self

In an instant, Wrenna stiffened momentarily at her teasing. Clarissa could even sense a slight change in her countenance.

The next moment, Wrenna came to her senses and put on a cheerful smile as she continued to browse through the photos. Even though she changed the topic casually, Clarissa still sensed something awry. She could barely wait for another second to talk to Matthew about it right after Wrenna left.

“Do you think something is going on between Damian and Wren?” Clarissa went straight to the point.

“Is there any problem?” Matthew, who engaged himself in reading a book, only responded placidly without lifting his head.

“I brought up the topic about childbearing to Wren just now, but I sensed something amiss from her expression. Do you think Damian has any problem?” Clarissa asked anxiously.

“Hmm,” Matthew mumbled.

Clarissa commented again, “My gut instinct tells me that there is something wrong between them. Moreover, I don’t think it’s a minor problem that can be easily resolved.”

“Hmm,” Matthew responded briefly again.

Clarissa nearly flipped out at the sight of Matthew’s nonchalance. She snatched his book right away and tossed it aside to vent her anger.

“Matthew Tyson, did you hear what I said?” Clarissa lashed out at him.

Only then did Matthew lift his head slowly and reply, “Yeah, I heard that.”

“Then why didn’t you say anything other than mumbling? Hmm! Hmm! Do you have constipation?” Clarissa snapped at him. After being husband and wife for a few decades with him, she could blurt out anything to him without a second thought.

Matthew could feel his temples starting to throb as he responded resignedly, “Even if they are having problems among themselves, that’s none of our business, right? As for their childbearing issue, are you sure you want to meddle with it, huh?”

Clarissa was at a loss for words to refute him. Even so, she was reluctant to give in to him.

She glared at him and started to bombard him with words. “Matthew Tyson, what do you mean? Did you get the point? I’m worried sick if there is anything that strains their relationship. Do you think you can let go of everything just because our son is an adult now? After all, you are the one to be blamed! I bet Damian Quigley must have taken after you! Not to mention, it’s the most annoying part of your temperament!”

Clarissa tended to put all the blame on Matthew. Ever since Damian started to grow up and resemble Matthew even more, she had been grumbling non-stop about that.

Even Matthew was gradually brainwashed by her, as though he was the one to be responsible for that.

“Fine, it’s all my fault,” he echoed resignedly.

“Whose fault is it then if it is not yours?” Clarissa fumed with pouted lips.

Matthew tried to appease her by holding her hand, but she shrugged him off at once with a glare.

Matthew glanced obliquely at her quietly. She was obviously displeased, with a grim look on her dainty face.

“I’m serious about it. I’m convinced that there must be something wrong between them. The moment I mentioned childbearing, Wren’s smile froze. If there is nothing wrong, how could she have such a reaction? Could it be the previous problem still exists all this while, but Damian has been telling white lies? Do you think he is bothered with that… that kind of problem? You know what I mean, don’t you?”

Nonetheless, Matthew shook his head right away and retorted, “That’s impossible. After all, there are many other reasons when a man doesn’t feel like touching a woman.”

Clarissa knitted her brows and asked hesitantly, “Or perhaps it’s because he doesn’t have any feelings for her?”

“It could be. You have been instilling the so-called right concept about love in his mind all this while, haven’t you?” Matthew asked in return.

Clarissa twitched her lips in an instant.

Have I done anything wrong by telling him that?

She kept reminding Damian not to enter into an ambiguous relationship with any women if he had no feelings for them.

Now that Damian marries Wren without having feelings toward her, what’s the difference then? Their marriage will be just in name. He’s indeed a scumbag!

“Damian Quigley is undoubtedly a scumbag!” she rebuked in dismay.

In the meantime, Damian, who was far away overseas, had a sneeze.

Hmm! Is someone thinking of me at the moment?

Indeed, someone was really thinking of him at the moment and could barely wait to lash out at him!

This round, it was Clarissa’s turn to have throbbing temples.

“My goodness! What are we supposed to do? Since they are already married, how can they stay like this for the rest of their life? If Damian insists on that, I would rather talk Wren into divorcing him. Damn it! Your son is really a sc*mbag!”

Apart from that, Clarissa could not resist feeling guilty toward Wrenna.

Matthew embraced her and mumbled to her words of consolation. “You have been emphasizing on allowing nature to take its course all this while, haven’t you? Well, just let them go with the flow then. Familiarity breeds fondness. Who knows, Damian might gradually fall for her later. By then, everything will be resolved.”

Clarissa turned to give Matthew a look of displeasure and mocked, “Do you think it’s simple as that, huh? How are they going to have familiarity without physical intimacy?”

The next moment, she was regretful of blurting out those words.

As Matthew looked at her with a subtle smile, she blushed and cleared her throat to ease the awkward atmosphere.

“Hmm… I thought that should be the way since they are husband and wife. Could it be Damian still can’t get that woman out of his mind? He can’t continue to be like that…” Clarissa explained incoherently.

Matthew continued to gaze at her for quite a while before he burst into laughter.

Clarissa threw a punch on his chest and snapped in embarrassment, “How dare you laugh at me? Did I say anything wrong? Aren’t you guys placing that as a priority? Pfft! You dare to deny that you were not

first drawn toward me because of my look and figure many years ago? Who was the one drooling over my figure at that time, huh?”

Even after so many years, Clarissa could still remember how Matthew could barely take his blazing eyes off her decades ago.

Matthew was reluctant to admit it. He furrowed his brows and rebutted, “Are you sure? I don’t think so…”

Clarissa rolled her eyes and scoffed, “Ha! Men!”

Matthew almost responded by mocking, “Ha! Women!”

Nonetheless, he held himself back as something came into his mind. He decided to exercise restraint after recalling how coldly Clarissa treated him when they had a conflict previously.

“Ah! It’s out of topic. We are talking about Damian, aren’t we?” Matthew tried to change the topic.

“Of course, I know that. Oh, what are we supposed to do now? I feel like twisting the situation so they will slowly develop a closer relationship. How can I be at ease whenever I think about their current situation? My happiness links closely to theirs. Matthew, please tell me what should I do now?” Clarissa asked him helplessly.

Matthew suddenly felt that they were shooting in their own feet by having a child who brought endless challenges to them.

We shouldn’t have given birth to such a troublemaker! Out of sight, out of mind.

He could not resist grumbling inwardly in a fit of anger. Even so, he held his tongue, fearing that he would have to face Clarissa’s wrath by saying so.

Apart from that, he could only hold his temper when Clarissa asked for his help coquettishly.

“There is no point in worrying about that now. When Damian is back later, let’s talk things out with him. If he doesn’t feel like spending the rest of his life with her, they should divorce at once and don’t drag on,” Matthew suggested.

“But didn’t we mention familiarity breeds fondness? It takes time for that, isn’t it?” Clarissa asked anxiously.

“Then just set a deadline for him,” Matthew replied casually.

Even so, Clarissa was rather hesitant.

Hmph! Women tend to be indecisive and in a dilemma all the time.

Subsequently, Matthew finalized the decision on behalf of her.

“Just set it this way then.” Matthew planted a kiss on Clarissa’s cheek, waking her up from her hesitation.

“Let’s put this out of our mind now. How about we go traveling some time from now?” Matthew suggested tactfully.

“Where to go then?” Clarissa asked curiously.

“Let’s visit Leia and grab the opportunity to explore the tourist spots there,” Matthew suggested.

“Good idea. I’m curious how things are going on with Lela. This lazy girl hasn’t given us a video call for quite some time. What more to expect from her? If not because we have gotten someone to take care of her over there, I guess her life will turn upside down due to her laziness.” Clarissa shook her head.

Matthew was rendered speechless when Clarissa started nagging again. Without hesitation, he kissed her on the lips so she would zip her mouth at once.

Clarissa shoved him away and whined, “Why did you kiss me all of a sudden? You must be feeling that I’m naggy, huh?”

Matthew only smiled without uttering any words.

Ah! It is still the best and easiest to get matters resolved with kisses!

In the meantime, Wrenna had reached home, bringing along Damian’s childhood photos from Clarissa.

She had fun browsing through them one by one again. Nevertheless, when she recalled how Clarissa teased her about bearing a mini version of Damian, her lips contorted into a bitter smile.

Wrenna Jackson, don’t give up! I’m sure your dream will turn into reality one day!

Wrenna did not dwell on it for long. Throughout these years, she had been used to cheering herself up via self-counseling and learning to look on the bright side of things.

Later, when having a video call with Damian, she showed him the photos and told him about those funny descriptions made by Clarissa.

Damian’s face turned grim as he pinched his temples.

My goodness! How could Mom embarrasses me in such a way!

Wrenna was even laughing her head off, unaware of the abrupt change in the man’s countenance.

Damian turned crimson in embarrassment and cut her off. “Wren, can you stop on that?”

Only then did Wrenna realize that it was inappropriate to describe Damian’s embarrassing childhood moments in his face.

Stifling her laughter, she tried to appease him by saying, “Okay… let’s drop the subject. Anyway, Damian, you were really adorable when you were young. Mom even mentioned that our son will surely turn out to be more adorable than you.”

Wrenna held her breath right after the last sentence escaped her lips, curious at how Damian would react. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Even so, Damian only smiled and replied placidly, “There’s no hurry for that. It’s already quite late. Don’t stay up too late. I will hang up now. Good night.”

Wrenna could only hang up reluctantly when the other end of the line went dead.

Wrapping her arms around Damian’s pillow, she rolled herself under the blanket.

It’s not as simple as that when it comes to bearing a child with Damian! There is still a long way to go!

Since Damian was still on a business trip, Wrenna stopped exploring new recipes temporarily and tended to have simpler meals. With that, she had more time for herself in a way. Thus, she was more productive in her comics drawing as requested by the editor. Moreover, she helped Hailey with her live broadcast and worked on ways to gain popularity for her. Even though she was not paying much attention to her studies, she seldom skipped classes lately.

There were times when she spent the nights at Hailey’s place. As a result, they became best friends after having a heart-to-heart talk with each other frequently.

Furthermore, she could spend more time shopping, going to the movies, and chatting with her roommates. Xandra even commented that Wrenna was finally back to her usual self again.

Even so, Wrenna twitched her lips and rebutted, “What do you mean by back to my usual self? Why are you giving such a comment? It seems I was being pretentious all this while!”

She was more than willing to spend time preparing meals for Damian or wait for him to be home. Undeniably, she loved to play the role of Mrs. Quigley the most.

As for Xandra’s point of view, Wrenna was convinced that she would not have the same comment again if she had been in a relationship before.

She mocked, “Xandra, if you fall in love with a man one day, I bet you won’t comment in such a way again. Love will definitely transform you into another person!”

Even so, Xandra shook her head at her convincing tone. “I’m sure I won’t fall head over heels for a man like you.”

“Is there anything wrong with me at the moment?” Wrenna asked curiously.

To Wrenna, nobody had the right to comment much on her. She decided to follow her heart and would not be bothered by how the others looked at her.

Even if the others criticized her for being inferior in her love life, she would not mind as long as she felt it was worth it.
