You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow
Chapter 173

"Good boy?" Matthew couldn't help but laugh. Does she think I'm a kid?

Seeing how the woman was the one who started the kiss, the man was satisfied. I'll forgive you this time.

Hugging the woman tightly, Matthew rubbed his lips on her forehead and chuckled softly. "Is it true that you'll feel happier and take the initiative if I tell you everything about me?"

Clarissa shook her head. "That's not what I meant. I'm not worried about other matters."

"So you're worried about me being close to other women?" Matthew raised a brow while his eyes were cold, giving off a warning to the woman.

The latter hurriedly shook her head and explained, "No, no. I'm worried about women like Sienna."

Trying to flatter Matthew, Clarissa smiled while her eyes turned into crescents. "You're so nice and reliable, so I feel safe and relaxed."

Satisfied with her answer, the man lowered his head and kissed her passionately.

The act of love escalated as they kissed incessantly.

Matthew pinned her down on the couch and was about to proceed with what he was doing.

Clarissa felt nervous and blurted, "No... Let's do it in the room."

His hot breaths were heavy as he kissed her neck. After scattering moist kisses on her collarbone, he mumbled, "Good girl, Clare. Let's do it here, okay?"

In the living room?

Clarissa held Matthew's hair tightly and pulled on them in defiance. "No."

With the constant stinging pain on his head, Matthew could only raise his head and look at the woman helplessly. "Clare, there's no one here. Everyone went to rest, so no one will disturb us." However, the latter didn't bother to listen to his explanation and was persistent. The living room's too big and the helpers are staying in the house. How am I supposed to feel safe doing it in here? She pouted as she glared at Matthew. With that, the man surrendered to her and did as she said.

Compromising to the woman's request, Matthew sighed in his mind as he carried the lady in his arms. He whispered something in her ear when he was climbing the stairs.

Upon hearing his words, the lady grew flustered and growled, "Matthew, release me! You shall sleep in study tonight."

The man fell silent for a while before letting out a chuckle and kissed Clarissa's lips.

After ending their kiss, he said, "Alright. What a pleasant idea! Clare, you're so smart..."

"What do you mean?" Before Clarissa could figure out what the man meant, she was carried into the study and placed on the wide table.

Realization finally dawned upon her, but it was all too late. With her lips blocked by Matthew's thin lips, she could only let out muffled whimpers, struggling to resist the man as if she was being bullied. However he was one step ahead of her and made her succumb to him with his passionate kisses before doing as he pleased in the study.

The study was a smart choice given that she didn't want to do it in the living room. The man secretly planned to do it in the living room some other day.

On the next day, Clarissa prepared a few dishes for Matthew for lunch. Seeing how Sienna went to the Tyson Corporation to meet Matthew, she wanted to do it as well.

Clarissa was in a good mood and she rushed to the Tyson Corporation before the lunch break after packing the food in lunch boxes.

After parking the car in the basement, Clarissa entered the lift with the lunch boxes in her hands and went upstairs.

No one blocked her path when she went all the way to the top floor. Upon reaching Matthew's office, she knocked on the door.

"Come in." The woman curled her lips upward when a deep and chilling voice sounded from inside of the room.

When they first knew each other, Matthew was aloof, and whenever he spoke, his voice had a frosty feeling to it.

However, after knowing each other for a long time, he rarely showed her this part of him.

Clarissa pushed the door open and entered the room. Matthew's head was hung low all the time, as he thought it was just another employee who was going to see him. Walking toward him sneakily, she placed the lunch boxes on Matthew's desk.

The latter lifted his head, and what he saw surprised him.

Clarissa lifted her chin slightly with an arrogant expression. As if she was a queen, she commanded, "What are you waiting for? Hug me."

Matthew's heart melted at her adorable actions.

Getting up from his seat quickly, he carried the lady over and placed her on his desk. He squeezed his slender figure into the space between her legs and pinched her chin before kissing her passionately. The temperature in the office increased drastically while the woman blushed when she heard the seductive moans she let out between their kisses.

It was quite a while before she pushed Matthew slightly, and her heart was thumping vigorously.

Recalling the experience of last night on the table, she knew she wouldn't be able to take it if they were to do it on the desk again.

Clarissa bit down on his cheeks coyly and said, "Stop and eat your lunch. I'm here to eat with you, and I have not eaten yet."

Pinching her cheeks lovingly, Matthew smiled and said, "Okay. Clare, you're the best."

Clarissa snorted softly while pushing him away and jumped down from the desk. Placing the lunch boxes on the other table, she bent down to open them.

Meanwhile, Matthew took advantage of the situation and hugged her slender waist while sticking his legs close to her.

Clarissa blushed instantly when she felt something warm pressing against her. Glancing back, she rolled her eyes at the man while the man lowered his head and kissed her.

After a series of eating their food and kissing, they finally finished their lunch.

In the end, Clarissa felt it was unnecessary to bring Matthew lunch, as she almost gave herself to him.

After lunch, Matthew dragged Clarissa to a lounge, and they took a nap on the same bed.

The man was touching her body, implying to something with her, but to no avail, as Clarissa was tired, so she fell asleep as soon as she lay on the bed.

By the time Clarissa woke up, a few hours had already passed.

Holding the blankets, she sat up groggily on the bed. The air conditioner was switched on, but she felt hot as her cheeks were red from heat when she was sleeping. She felt sluggish as she stared blankly into space for a while before finally coming to her senses.

Checking her phone, she realized it was time for Matthew to get off from work.

She got down from the bed and opened the door.

Upon seeing the woman exiting the lounge, Matthew's cold expression immediately turned amiable and warm.

He got up from his seat and paced toward her. Caressing her messy hair, he was all smiles. "You're such a sleepyhead, Clare."

Clarissa felt muzzy from sleep, so she leaned in his arms while hugging his waist, nuzzling against his chest. “Yeah...”

Is that a yes?

Matthew chuckled softly. She looks so dumb, but adorable.

Right when he planted a kiss on her forehead, his phone rang. Hugging Clarissa tightly, he moved slowly while leading the woman to his desk and answered the call.

After talking on the phone about something without the woman's knowledge, Matthew hung up and fell silent for a while before he spoke, "Clare, do you want to meet Matthias and Yuliana?"

"What?" Clarissa came to her senses and lifted her head to look at the man immediately.

After understanding what Matthew meant, she shook her head quickly and vigorously in refusal. "No. I don't have the courage to, and I don't want to meet them."

However, she felt she was too direct in her rejection, so she softened up quickly. "I think the time hasn't come yet. I'm scared..."

Blinking her eyes pitifully, she looked at the man in the eyes to voice her fear of meeting the couple.

What am I going to do with you?

The woman acted cute to persuade him into agreeing with her decision. So he couldn't possibly force her to meet them.

However, the man still asked, "Didn't you say you're not afraid?"

Clarissa hurriedly explained, "Oh no. It's different. You know my relationship with them in the past. If they know of our relationship, I'm okay with their opinions about me, but I'm worried they will be shocked." Matthew argued, "It's only a matter of time."

"But today's too sudden. We can ask Ellie to test the waters for us. I don't wish to shock them, as they treated me well in the past," Clarissa insisted.

Lowering his head, he smirked and said, "I treat you well, didn't I?"

Clarissa smiled shyly while she fiddled with Matthew's belt. "I know you're good to me, and I said nothing bad about you. Are you so excited to let them know?"

Matthew didn't give her a response, and the latter thought he was angry. Before she could say anything, the man said, "What I'm excited about is whether you're going to take off my belt, Clare."

Clarissa pushed him away swiftly and snorted before sitting down on Matthew's office chair. Crossing her legs, she spun around in the chair and smiled at the man. "Matthew!"

Matthew played along with her and answered, "Yes, Ms. Quigley."

"Haha!" After giggling, Clarissa's expression turned dark, and she scolded, "Matthew, what have you done? Your report is total rubbish! Is this how you repay your company? Are you out of your mind? Scram now! I don't need someone useless in my company."

With that, she looked at Matthew while her heart was beating rapidly.

What should I do?

This is so fun!

Hahahaha!

Clarissa was laughing in her mind, and soon enough, she couldn't keep a poker face anymore, so she burst into laughter.

Meanwhile, Matthew took off his coat and walked toward Clarissa slowly with a wicked smile. Seeing his expression, the woman knew he was up to no good and hurriedly jumped off the chair while running away, laughing. "I was wrong, Matthew, Uncle Matthew..."

The man chased after her with ease, and in the end; he pinned her down on the couch.

His eyes were dark as he smirked. "Ms. Quigley, I don't wish to be fired. Is it okay if I pay with my body?"

If she had someone like him at her company, she would definitely harass the hell out of him.
