You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa snapped out of her daze of being caught in Matthew’s good looks and tried as best as she could to face it indifferently.

She raised an eyebrow. She thought he would get down on his knees directly as she confronted him.

Apparently, the man was still taking his time to delay his punishment, or perhaps he was just putting on an act.

Matthew’s lips curled slightly as he stood there for a while. This woman sure is composed. She’s just staring at me in silence.

It was a little awkward for him, but on the veneer, he was able to keep his deep smile.

“Clare, here’s the washboard I asked Mrs. Lawson to buy promptly today. Is it to your satisfaction? I’ve pondered about it, and I think that you like your keyboard very much. So, if I messed up and damaged your keyboard, you’d surely be more pissed. Hence, I resorted to the washboard instead. At least this won’t be easily damaged.”

Clarissa laughed sardonically. “I think the keyboard is a better idea because it’s not that hard. You won’t hurt your knees that way. Why don’t you change to kneeling on the keyboard? I’ve used it for so many years, and I don’t like it that much anymore. I can buy a new one if it’s damaged.”

“No, no, Clare. I think it’s better with the washboard.”

“Really? Isn’t it because you’re scared that you have to type out the letters ‘I’m sorry’ with the keyboard while kneeling?”

“Of course not,” was Matthew’s reply, but the truth was exactly what Clarissa had said.

Matthew had looked it up on the internet, and he was astonished by the results he found. Those bizarre punishments were beyond him, especially kneeling on the keyboard because one had to also type ‘I’m sorry’ with their knees on it apart from just kneeling. And if there was any mistake made, one had to start all over again. Not to mention there were also other even crazier ideas including kneeling on a durian…

In comparison, the one with the washboard seemed to be the best among them all.

This was the first time the mighty Matthew had to do such a thing, and he had no intention to try those bizarre ideas at all. He opted for the more conventional and moderate one—the washboard. After all, it was him who proposed it. Hence, he had to bring himself to it regardless of the circumstances.

Clarissa smiled, but the smile faded from her face immediately. “Get going then!”

That might be the only instance that he got to see such rapid change of expression in his life.

Matthew finally gave her a helpless smile. Fine, looks like idle chatter isn’t effective in changing this woman’s mind.

All right. Let’s not waste more time. A true gentleman must be resilient. If other men can do this to cheer their wives up, why can’t I do the same?

With that thought in mind, he tried to relax both his knees and knelt down on the washboard.

Seeing as such, Clarissa sat up in an upright posture all of a sudden. She didn’t expect that Matthew would be willing to do that in actuality, hence, she was flabbergasted.

Feeling a little perplexed, she mumbled, “I can’t believe you’re actually down for it.”

Matthew chuckled softly. “I walk the talk.”
