"We can call him Damian Quigley."

Matthew's response surprised Clarissa.

Meanwhile, he was smiling and caressing her forehead lovingly.

"You gave birth to Damian and raised him. Although he's also my son, he means even more to you. Hence, you have the right to decide. Besides, using your surname will make him understand how difficult it is to be a mother."

There was actually a hidden reason-Matthew was aware that Clarissa was still worried.

Before Clarissa uttered a word, he lowered his gaze and whispered near her ear, "No one can grab the kid from you because he's yours alone."

He had even thought about the future.

Although he definitely wouldn't let it happen, he still wished to assure Clarissa by making the promise.

Meanwhile, Clarissa was moved upon hearing it. Tears welled up in her eyes, yet her lips curled into a smile.

She stretched out her arms to hug Matthew and nuzzled her face against his shoulder.

"Alright, his name will be Damian Quigley. Our next baby will carry your family name."

Matthew let out a chuckle. "It's a deal."

Once she lifted her head, tears rolled down her smiling face.

"Yes, it's decided then. We'll have another baby."

Matthew was a little emotional and speechless. He immediately pinched her chin gently and kissed her passionately.

Immersed in sweetness, they completely forgot that a young boy was still here.

"Daddy, Mommy, I want kisses too."

Damian was a little disgruntled that he was left out. As such, he tried his best to squeeze in, hug, and kiss the both of them. Clarissa was amused by Damian's cute actions. With that, Damian's full name was confirmed.

Suddenly, as if a thought flashed through her mind, Clarissa gazed at Matthew with worry. She wasn't sure if the Tyson family would formally recognize Damian as part of their family. Matthew carried Damian on his lap and played with him using Thomas the Tank Engine.

Sensing her worry, he replied, "Don't worry. We're a family after all."

Clarissa was relieved when Matthew made the promise. However, apart from formal recognition, the most crucial issue was actually her future with Matthew.

For the very least, Matthew still couldn't bring Damian to see Margaret.

As for the promise Clarissa made to Margaret, she thought it was still considered intact. That was because she had already registered marriage with Matthew before she swore to Margaret. Moreover, she married Matthew but not the Tysons.

Clarissa couldn't help but heave a sigh as she pondered over it.

Damian lifted his gaze and saw that Clarissa seemed to be distressed. The next moment, he put his little hand on hers and said cutely, "Alright, Mommy. I don't want to eat chocolate anymore. Please don't feel upset."

Clarissa immediately asked in response, "Are you sure you won't eat chocolate from now on?”

Unexpectedly, Damian was smart and didn't fall for it. "Nope, I'll only stop eating chocolate for today."

"I'm sad. Damian, can't you give up on eating chocolate for me? If you agree to it, I'll be happy and won't be upset anymore."

At this moment, Damian began to knit his brows as though he had been put in a difficult position.

A few seconds later, he heaved a sigh like an adult and gave Clarissa a hilarious response.

"What can I do with you?"

Clarissa was stunned at Damian's response. As she turned around to look at Matthew, she realized even he was bewildered.

A few seconds later, they came to their senses and burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha..."

Meanwhile, Damian was still frowning as he didn't understand why they laughed. He shook his head and heaved a sigh again before leaving and playing with his toy alone. Nonetheless, Clarissa and Matthew laughed even harder at Damian's reaction.

Later, Clarissa carried Damian while she was still giggling. "Damian, my love. Why are you so cute?"

With that, Clarissa kissed his cheek several times.

After several overly passionate kisses, Damian felt that he couldn't take it because his face was already full of saliva. He pursed his lips and gently pushed Clarissa aside. "Alright, Damian wouldn't eat chocolate anymore. Mommy, please stop kissing me.”

Clarissa chortled and said, "Damian, I won't force you into it. You can still eat chocolate but not too much. Also, you must brush your teeth every time after eating chocolate." Instantly, Damian eyes gleamed with excitement.

"In that case, can I eat chocolate now?"

"No."

Damian added in disappointment, "Mommy, I want to eat an apple."

"No problem. Mommy will cut it for you now."

Clarissa stood up and went into the kitchen to peel an apple for Damian. However, as soon as Clarissa left, Damian immediately threw himself into Matthew's arms. Then, he bent his fingers into a trumpet and whispered near Matthew's ear, "Daddy, tonight, you can secretly..."

"No way. We've to listen to Mommy."

Damian said dejectedly with his pursed lips, "Daddy is afraid of Mommy!"

Matthew's lips curled into a helpless smile.

It's not a big deal if I'm afraid of my wife, right?

Yet, why do I feel from his words that he's looking down on me?

A moment later, Matthew pinched Damian's cute face gently and explained, "Damian, I'm not afraid of Mommy but I love her. So, I must listen to Mommy's words. I'm sure you love Mommy as well, don't you?"

As Damian nodded, he realized that Matthew was still punching his face. As such, he pushed Matthew's hands away and nodded seriously again.

"I love Mommy very much."

Meanwhile, Clarissa happened to carry a plate of apple slices out of the kitchen. She was instantly pleased by Damian's sweet confession. "Damian, I love you too."

Damian flashed her a grin. After standing up from Matthew's lap, he hugged Clarissa instead and said more pleasant words to her. Massaging his forehead, Matthew smiled faintly and shook his head.

Well, well, this little boy likes to act cute like Clarissa!

At night, Clarissa left Damian's room only after he fell asleep.

She then returned to the master bedroom and lay on the bed. Shortly afterward, Matthew came into the room.

She immediately put down her book and threw herself into his arms tightly and smilingly.

Matthew's thin lips quirked. He gently wrapped his hands around hers.

"Before Damian fell asleep, he said he missed Great-grandma. Since the holiday is coming soon, I wonder if I can bring him back to W City for a few days?"

Once Clarissa suggested it, Matthew unknowingly exerted a slight force with his hands. She knew that he was a little worried.

"Well, we'll only be there for a few days. Besides, we have to go back for the new year anyway. Since we can't avoid this forever, I think you should be mentally prepared for it as early as possible." Now, it was Matthew's turn to heave a sigh.

"Can't we invite Catherine to our house?"

Clarissa gazed at him innocently, "Do you think it's possible?"

Well, it's impossible. Perhaps Catherine would never want to enter D City again for the rest of her life.

"In that case, I'll go to W City. Hopefully, she can accept my presence to celebrate the new year with all of you."

"Hmm... that's possible. At that time, we can let Damian act cute and persuade Grandma. I think she might eventually accept you."

Nevertheless, they had to work on it slowly and patiently.

"By the way, I've to join the shooting of a film soon. So, I think Damian can stay in W City, for Grandma and Jenny can take care of him there."

"Just let Damian stay here."

Matthew hated to part with Damian. Before Clarissa declined his request, he added, "He has to attend kindergarten, right? Besides, many people can take care of him here, and I'll spend time with him every day. I can also bring him to my company. Regardless, I'm really reluctant to part with him."

After all, Matthew loved Damian as much as Clarissa.

Clarissa also felt that it was cruel to separate Matthew from his own son. As such, she pondered over it and said, "Alright, I agree to it. However, I think you shouldn't bring him to the company. I mean, there wil be many unwanted troubles once the outsiders know it."

"It won't happen. I'll protect Damian and make sure that no news about him spreads."

"That's great then."

However, a frown was clearly marred on Clarissa's face. She was still worried and wished to come up with a win-win solution. Suddenly, Matthew pinned her to the bed.

While she was in a daze, Matthew had begun to kiss her lips gently and put his hand into her pajamas.

"Wait, I'm still thinking..."

"It's okay. You should think about another matter now."

"What is it that I should think about?"

"Giving birth to a sister for Damian."

As Clarissa came back to her senses, her body instantly became hotter. Meanwhile, Matthew leaned in closer and gazed at her gorgeous eyes and blushing cheeks. Matthew could hardly suppress his desire every time Clarissa looked shy, and his body reacted immediately.

"Clare, my darling. You promised me that, didn't you?"

"I didn't say no..."

"In that case, let's begin."

Matthew took off her pajamas and kissed her all over her body. After a while, he asked, "Clare, do you think we should have a daughter?"

"Mmm... How can I know if we can have a daughter? You should take care of this yourself."

Gazing at her flushed face, Matthew smiled and continued, "Alright, I'll work hard myself to get a daughter. Clare, you've to hang on!" Clarissa was a little shocked, but Matthew immediately kissed her lips before she could respond. They spent the passionate night together. Nonetheless, the question about whether Clarrisa could be pregnant and give birth to a sister for Damian remained uncertain.
