You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

When Matthew reached home, he saw Clarissa sitting opposite Damian.

The moment he saw Matthew come home early, Damian was overjoyed. He threw aside the word cards in his hands and rushed into Matthew’s arms.

“Daddy, you’re back! I missed you…”

Matthew picked him up and entered the house.

Meanwhile, Clarissa tidied up the cards he left and reminded, “Damian Quigley, you have not finished your lessons yet. Don’t you dare think just because Daddy is back, you can stop doing your homework.”

Damian pouted and looked adorable doing so. However, Clarissa knew that as a mother, she had to be firm and not give in to his cuteness.

When she glanced at Matthew, he put Damian down and said, “Damian, listen to Mommy. I’ll play with you once you are done with your lessons. We cannot give up learning halfway, alright? We are men, and what do men do?”

Damian replied in reflex, “Men keep their words.”

“That’s right. Come, I’ll sit with you.”

Matthew’s presence seemed to have aroused Damian’s interest in his lessons.

As he was already a smart boy, he could learn with great speed as long as he put his heart into it.

When Clarissa tested him with the cards again, he was able to reply quickly and correctly.

After he was done, he pushed his toy car out and pulled Matthew along to play with him. Matthew naturally went willingly.

It wasn’t until after dinner was over that both Matthew and Clarissa finally had time to talk about what happened in the day.

From Clarissa’s response, Matthew could sense that Clarissa wasn’t really angry.

In fact, it was Clarissa that broached the topic first.

“From your reaction, I can see that you really don’t mind the DNA results. Did you not have any doubts that Damian wasn’t your son?”

Chuckling, Matthew walked up to Clarissa and toyed with her hands.

“Do you think I would believe something as ridiculous as this?”

“But, it’s clearly stated in the test report.”

When Clarissa waved it in front of him, he grabbed onto it and threw it aside.

Lowering his head to kiss the tip of her lips, she avoided him quickly. “Stop. Let’s finish the discussion first.”

Persistently, he stole a gentle kiss before replying. “Isn’t it over? There’s nothing more to discuss as I don’t believe it. However, how did you find out?”
