You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

The woman heard her son’s remarks but decided to play dumb. I’ll see what other funny ideas you can come up with!

“Mommy, Mommy…”

Clarissa remained silent.

That made the little boy upset, so he pretended to cry.

“Mommy has lost her soul… Mommy has lost her soul!”

Pfft! Clarissa couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

His acting was so exaggerated that it became comical.

Clarissa recalled that this was how Damian’s grandmother behaved when Damian was startled by the sound of firecrackers. I can’t believe that this little brat actually remembers it and uses this against me!

She smiled at Damian.

Surprised, Damian’s eyes widened as he exclaimed, “You’re awake, Mommy?”

“What do you mean I’ve lost my soul? Where did you learn that? I’m working, so stop spouting nonsense.”

“But Mommy, you ignored me…”

Earlier, Damian went to look for Clarissa to play. However, the latter was too busy to entertain him.

“I’ll be very busy with work recently. If you want to play, you can look for Mrs. Lawson or Mr. Nick. Otherwise, you can wait for your Daddy to come home and play with him.”

Damian pouted, looking extremely upset as he hung his head and continued eating.

Clarissa smiled resignedly and turned to Matthew. “Yael is admitted to the hospital. Perhaps, she has overworked herself. I’ll be putting more of my time in the studio for now. You’ll have to take care of Damian.”

He nodded and asked, “Should I bring him to my company?”

Clarissa shook her head at his question. “No, he has to go to school in the morning and take his afternoon nap once he’s home. It’d be tiring for him to travel to your company after that and return home again.”

“He can take his nap at the company. I know what you’re worried about; no one will see him.”

Clarissa pondered for a few seconds before replying, “All right.”

While the adults were discussing, Damian looked up and wondered if they were talking about him.

The woman wasn’t lying when she said that she was busy.

There was a lot of work to be done, so much so that she had to pull an all-nighter.
