You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 141

“Aaaaahhhhh-”

“Help!”

“No, please…”

“Uncle Matthew…”

“Matthew Tyson!”

All sorts of wailing, yelling, and shrieking could be heard from the hotel room as she had no other way.

Matthew, the swimming coach, was being violent to her at that moment.

Clarissa was carried out of the swimming pool by him, defeated and sluggish.

Of course, this was not a result of swimming, but he tortured her in the name of a swimming lesson.

There was a pool at home, but she never dared to go near it. Since she was a landlubber and Matthew was always busy working, he didn’t reveal his true colors while he was in the pool.

Now that they were on vacation, they were free from work. More importantly, they had their privacy.

Hence, Matthew felt that it would be a waste if they didn’t do anything in this gorgeous view.

After taking a shower, Clarissa lay on the bed lazily. Even so, she exuded an enchantingly alluring aura.

Meanwhile, he sat beside the windows with his legs crossed while looking at the woman with a smile on his face.

“Clare, didn’t you want to exercise? Sitting in front of the computer every day is not good for your health. Strictly speaking, swimming is the best exercise. Plus, it’s also good for the cervical spine. I’m just looking out for you.”

Clarissa rolled her eyes. “Oh, how thoughtful of you.”

“Hey, that hurts. Clare… you should appreciate what I’m trying to do here.”

Although he tried to look pitiful, his casual demeanor paired with an unbuttoned shirt made her slightly aroused.

Despite being mad at the man who deliberately teased her, she had to admit that he was very tempting at that moment.

Matthew was now different from the frosty attitude he had at D City, nor was he gentle like he was at Zen Highlands. No, he was acting more like an arrogant, spoiled brat now.

The various sides of Matthew gave her different feelings toward him, and she had never seen this side of him before.

With his chin propped up, his lips curled up ever so slightly at the edge while he watched the woman on the bed gawking at him speechlessly. Frankly speaking, he quite enjoyed this moment.

It was like time had stopped at that instant when the two of them gazed at each other fondly.

However, the phone suddenly rang and brought them back to reality.

When Matthew answered the call, Clarissa only recovered her senses and stroked her face. Then, she turned over and started playing games on her phone.

After hanging up, he saw the woman focusing hard on her game while mumbling to herself excitedly as if she was in a war.

He walked towards the bed, snatched her phone away, and pinned her down.

“Heyyyyyyy… I was still in the middle of it! Ugh! They’ll be cursing me for sure!”

Clarissa was destined to be the burden of the group now.

Matthew, on the other hand, pinched her cheeks and pecked her lips. He asked in a lowered voice, “It seems like you’re still quite energetic.”

Knowing what he was suggesting, she quickly shook her head.

“Nope! I’m exhausted and hungry. Can you get some room service? I’m going to sleep after the meal.”

He stared at her “earnest” gaze and smiled tenderly.

“Is the game really that fun?”

Clarissa beamed. “Yeah, it is. Why don’t we have a go?”

Matthew raised his brows in response.

Twenty minutes later, she exclaimed on her bed, “Matthew! You’re awesome! It’s crazy how fast you can react!”

He threw the phone aside and folded his arms behind his head while enjoying her praises.

“It’s not that I’m awesome. You’re just too dumb.”

Clarissa scoffed at his remark. What the…

She then smiled. “Fine, smarty pants. I won’t fuss over it since you helped me win that round.”

After that, she grinned and pecked his lips.

“One more round, eh, Uncle Matthew?”

Matthew darkened his gaze, the evil smirk appearing once again on his face. “Okay-”

With that, he turned around and pinned her beneath him…

“Hey! What are you doing? I’m talking about the game! Ahhhhh… No…”

It was obvious they had different definitions of “one more round.”

After all, he wouldn’t want to waste all her energy on games only.

A long while later, the two was entangled in a loving embrace.

Meanwhile, Clarissa was still in a daze with the man on top of her, while moaning seductively in her ears.

He really wanted her, but he didn’t do it.

Yet, she didn’t know if he didn’t want to or he wasn’t brave enough.

She was so embarrassed that she wanted to bury herself.

“Let’s go…”

She pulled Matthew through the crowd and wanted to get out of there as fast as she could.

Unexpectedly, since it was overcrowded, the noises of children crying and adults yelling came from the narrow way ahead. The next moment, Clarissa bumped into someone and was separated from Matthew.

Squeezing to the front, she could only try to find an open space to contact him.

Unfortunately, she realized that her phone was gone when she reached into her pocket.

As if there were not enough miseries in her life, it started raining though the sun was still shining brightly. She then panicked and tried to find shelter, but there wasn’t any. What was worse was that she couldn’t even contact Matthew either.

She waited at the front of the crowd for a long time but did not see Matthew, so she assumed that he had returned to the hotel.

Hence, Clarissa could only rely on her memory to trace her way back to the carpark.

However, she had to ask along the way for directions as she was not very familiar with the place.

When she reached the carpark, the car was there, but Matthew wasn’t, so she could only wait beside the car.

And waited she did, until the rain became a mere drizzle. But her heart grew cold when Matthew was still nowhere to be found.

Right then, a gust of wind blew past her, making her shiver.

Fortunately, the temperature was warm enough. She hugged herself and leaned on the car while waiting patiently for Matthew to appear.

We shouldn’t have gone on a vacation during the holidays. What a pity… This could’ve been planned better.

Lately, Clarissa would always be with Matthew, and he would take care of everything without fail. But now that Matthew was not by her side, it was only natural for her to be easily defeated by such a situation.

“Matthew… Uncle Matthew… Mr. Tyson…”

Mumbling his name as if she was chanting a magic spell, she hoped that he would appear miraculously.

“Clarissa.”

Suddenly, a deep voice that sounded a little angry spoke. She looked up in surprise and saw him walking toward her.

Overjoyed, she hugged him without waiting for him to speak.

“Why did you come back so late?” She complained.

When she looked up, she met his angry glare, and she felt a little wronged.

“I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s too crowded, and I didn’t know it would be this packed! Alright, I admit that it’s my fault. I’m an idiot, okay? Please don’t be angry, and let’s not go on a trip during peak season anymore. We-”

Before she could finish, Matthew sealed her lips with a kiss.

Still, Clarissa accepted it happily and hugged him tightly, finally at peace again.
