You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow -
Chapter 414
Everyone laughed as they watched the little guy's movements.
Matthew picked up his son and held him in his arms. "It will be a younger sister, not a younger brother. Why would you make such a wish?"
As though he had found an ally, Damian hugged Matthew and said, "Mommy said it might be a younger brother."
Matthew's eyes twitched, fearing that Clarissa already knew the gender of the baby and was keeping it a secret because the child was a son.
Seeing Matthew's reaction, Clarissa couldn't help but laugh.
"I don't know too. Don't be afraid, okay? I want to have a daughter too, but the baby might still be a boy, right? I'm more worried that you both might disown the baby boy."
Matthew let out a sigh of relief. "No, we won't. Didn't you say that you are reacting differently with this pregnancy? Therefore, it will be a different gender?"
Clarissa did not deny it. She was worried that both father and son would start crying if she denied it further.
"Damian, Matt, don't worry, okay? We will pray for you together."
Jeremy cheered together and lit the candles again. Everyone was laughing together, and they all made a wish at the candles.
Clarissa's eyes twitched while the people around her were holding in their laughter and making a wish with their eyes closed.
After wishing and blowing out the candles, they suddenly burst out in laughter. Damian didn't know what was happening, but he laughed together, assuming they were all happy for him to have a new sister. Clarissa looked at Matthew, and Matthew was speechless as well.
"Enough guys..." Clarissa raised her voice to stop the cheering, but they all said happily, "Don't worry, Clarissa. There are many of us here. God will definitely hear our wishes, and it will be a baby girl." It was already too late.
Could the baby's gender still be changed?
Clarissa stopped worrying about them. She sat down and started chatting and laughing.
Having achieved such good results in the filming industry, Clarissa felt the need to thank Justin since he put himself in danger to make such a small film. So she toasted with him a glass of fruit juice as gratitude.
Then, she thanked the protagonists and the staff of the filming crew. She was delighted to thank everyone.
Among them, she was the one who contributed the least. Therefore, she really didn't have much credit for her achievement.
However, Yarick exclaimed, "Clarissa, didn't you say that the movie is a gift for Matt?"
Clarissa blushed as she looked toward Matthew. She was embarrassed to say such words in front of so many people. "Matt, hurry up and let Clarissa confess."
"Confess, confess, confess..."
Everyone started to cheer.
As they cheered, Clarissa's face turned bright red. She wanted to just walk away, but with so many people watching, she couldn't.
Additionally, Matthew was looking at her with passionate eyes, which made Clarissa feel even more embarrassed.
However, Matthew couldn't bear to see her embarrassed, and he immediately glared at the crowd.
Everyone went silent as he walked to Clarissa and hugged her waist. He bent over and kissed her forehead and faced the crowd and said, "Stop cheering. I'm the one who should be confessing, not my wife."
"Yeah! Matt!"
Clarissa became even shyer. She didn't want Matthew to confess in front of a crowd.
However, Matthew seemed to be having a good mood, and he granted the people's wish by turning to Clarissa and affectionately saying, "Clare, I love you-"
"Once is not enough! Say it again!"
"Clare, having you in my life is the greatest gift from God."
"One more time!"
There were still not satisfied, but Matthew looked at Clarissa's blushed face then smiled at the crowd. "I can't say too much. I got to save some for the wedding, right?"
Wedding?
"That's right, Matt. You haven't organized the wedding yet. Or are you secretly preparing it? Fine. Let's stop. We'll hear the rest of it at the wedding."
Clarissa's heart was throbbing quickly, and she was puzzled and shy at the same time.
As though Matthew saw through her, he whispered, "Clare, we've waited four years for the wedding. I've been waiting for you."
Back then, they planned to have their wedding at the small island she owned.
But after four years, the wedding still hadn't happened, but their second child was coming.
She grabbed onto Matthew's large hands and scratched them as if she thought of something.
"Were you anticipating it every year? Were you disappointed every time?"
"That's true!"
Clarissa bit her lip and said, "After the baby is born, I will not let you down again."
That was her promise.
Matthew smiled. "You won't have the chance to let me down. We will have our wedding no matter what."
The atmosphere between the whispering couple was intimate and sweet, making everyone around them jealous.
Roxanne watched from the side. She clenched her fists and pressed them against her chest, feeling exceedingly envious.
Suddenly, Ryler appeared behind her and said, "Are you envious?"
Roxanne was startled by Ryler's voice, and she jumped away in shock to keep a distance from Ryler. Additionally, she was being defensive toward Ryler. "Mr. Cooper, what do you want?" Ryler raised his eyebrows and said, "Can't we just talk? Are you envious of them?"
Roxanne glanced at Matthew and Clarissa. "I think many people would be envious. I'm just happy for my idol, and I hope that her happiness will last for a lifetime."
"You're quite the loyal fan. But don't you want to be loved and to be happy like Clary?
"Of course, I want to. But there's no hurry for that. I'll just go with the flow."
After a moment of silence, Ryler smiled. "No hurry?"
"Well, yeah. Excuse me. I have to go say hello to Ms. Zaha."
At that time, Roxanne only had her career in mind. She could learn from many seniors there, so she focused her attention on them and naturally ignored Ryler.
Daniel looked at Ryler and walked over to him with a glass of wine in his hand. He asked, "Do you really like this girl, huh? Isn't she a bit too young?" Ryler kept quiet and didn't to answer.
Daniel knew Ryler very well. They have been friends for years. Back then, he stopped Ryler from loving Clarissa. Now that Ryler had become famous, he didn't have to worry about his love life affecting his career anymore. However, he had also become older. Hence, he didn't stop Ryler anymore, but Ryler's life had been quiet.
But Ryler seemed to have a chance with Roxanne, and he sometimes paid attention to her.
However, his intentions were always vague due to his indecisive attitude.
"She hasn't graduated yet. After she graduates, I presume that she will be ambitious in her career. If you really like her, you still have to wait. But with your current age, how long more can you wait? Won't you be too old by then?" Daniel tried not to ridicule him.
However, Ryler remained expressionless. He didn't admit it nor deny it.
Fine, stay quiet then.
Daniel got tired of his attitude and decided to leave him alone. After all, he was the person who brought trauma to his previous romantic conquest.
Huh... Daniel sipped his wine in misery.
While Henry was still trying to coax Yaala about the benefits of having a baby, Roxanne jumped in and interrupted their conversation.
Henry was worried about his aging self and his incompetence in persuading his wife.
He too, sipped on his wine miserably.
On the other hand, Luke watched the romantic chemistry between Clarissa and Matthew. The wine in his mouth started to turn bitter as the smile on his face gradually turned sinister. After looking at the young Roxanne and Yaala, he pondered the possibility of flirting with them.
Then, he picked up his wine glass and went to flirt with the two beauties.
Yaala and Roxanna have heard of Luke's messy private life. So, they didn't particularly like him.
However, Luke was persistent. After all, he just wanted to relieve his boredom.
But after just a few words into the conversation, both his shoulders were suddenly pinned by two men.
Henry pinned his left shoulder while Ryler pinned his right. He turned his head left and right to look at both of them. Their expressions were bleak.
Luke smiled. Great.
He had already been hammered by someone else's display of affection today, and now he was about to receive another blow from these two men. Damn it. Why is everyone tormenting me?
He really didn't want to be tormented like this today.
"Yes? Mr. Jackson? Mr. Cooper? Is there a problem? If it's nothing, then please don't intervene in my conversation with these two beauties!"
"What conversation? Yaala is my woman."
"Sure, but what about Roxanne?" Luke pouted.
He looked at Ryler as Ryler frigidly said, "Roxanna is my woman."
"Who's your woman now?" Roxanne blushed and retorted.
However, Ryler looked at Roxanne with a half-smile. "Are you not?"
They were a couple in the movie, right?
"That- That's a movie. It's not real."
Luke smirked. "Mr. Cooper, you must be really dedicated to your craft. But please don't perform it here. Roxanne is a cutie, and I truly want to pursue her. I don't know if I will succeed, but I'm happy as long as she gives me a chance." Luke expressed his intentions to Roxanne.
Roxanne's eyes were wide open. She was startled by the sudden confession which wasn't a normal occasion for her.
As for Ryler, his facial expression change and he looked at Luke coldly.
He turned toward Roxanne. Naturally, he knew he had no right to control who Roxanne liked, but the way he looked at her was somewhat threatening.
"Roxanne, do you want him to pursue you? Hmm?" Ryler's tone sounded as if Luke would eat her up if she were to accept him. He was threatening her in broad daylight.
