You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Clarissa didn’t want the Wynters to reveal the news. However, Damon asked to see her within the next few days.

As Ellie didn’t join them, Clarissa knew that Jacque and his wife must have said something to Damon.

Just as expected, Damon’s expression was grim when he met her.

After a long silence, Clarissa couldn’t help but chuckle. “What are you thinking about?”

Clucking his tongue, Damon took a seat before sighing remorsefully.

“I was thinking what a close shave it was. Luckily, you didn’t accept me. Or else, it would have turned into incest.”

“Sheesh, stop with that nonsense.”

Damon smiled wryly. “Although we aren’t biological siblings, we’re still cousins. Hence, I’m no longer in competition to vie for you. Prior to this, I was considering getting together with you after Uncle Matthew pass on with age. Given the age gap, he would likely meet his maker much earlier than us.”

Obviously Damon was just joking.

Clarissa shook her head and smiled in resignation. “You had better give up on that idea. However, I did tell them to keep it under wraps still. Were you the only one they told? Or does the entire Wynter family know?”

If the entire Wynter family knew, it was the equivalent of making it public.

“Don’t worry. Only I know about it. Besides, the reason Aunt Sandra told me about it was that she wanted me to talk to you, hoping that they could get to know you better. Anyway, I’m just passing on her message. She mentioned that she likes you a lot and you’re so much more capable than you know who. Hence, she sincerely hopes that you can acknowledge us as your family and not be a stranger. Furthermore, you cannot change the fact that you are related to us by blood.”

Damon added, “Obviously, I don’t share her sentiments. If I were you, I would feel equally lost. After all, the complexity of this issue goes beyond just a few words. You should do as you see fit. Today, I’m not here to talk you into it. Instead, I just want to spend some time bonding with my cousin.”

Staring at Damon, Clarissa pursed her lips into a grin.

All of a sudden, Damon spread out his arms. “How about a hug, dear cousin?”

Clarissa couldn’t resist a chuckle. She then hugged Damon before they exchanged smiling glances.

The feelings they previously felt for each other had been nothing more than platonic. Nevertheless, their friendship and familial affection had survived the trials and tribulations of time.

A while later, the nanny returned with Damian from the washroom. After being placed in between both of them, they took turns caring for him.

After the meal, Damon walked them to their car. Before they left, he leaned on the door and gazed at them. At that moment, Damian excitedly acknowledged Damon as his uncle. Now that they were related, the child figured he would get more presents by doing so. In fact, he even sent him a flying kiss.
