You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow
Chapter 429

After Wrenna and Xandra finished class, they went back to their dormitory together.

A few students from the house next door came over after they found out she got back, asking her if she had any clothes or skincare products she wanted to give away. Wrenna had already gotten used to this. She did not mind it at all.

When they asked her for things, she went back to her room and picked a few items of clothing. These were all spare ones that she kept at the dormitory. She still had a lot at home. Wrenna was never stingy with her friends. Sometimes, she would even give away brand new items with their price tags still attached, but her kind gesture was never met with appreciation. "Wren, you shouldn't be so nice to them. You know they never say thank you even after getting things from you."

Wrenna shrugged at Xandra. "I know, but I don't care. It's just some clothes anyway. There's no point getting into a fight over something like this. I don't need those things anyway."

"Yeah, but do you know how they've been talking about you behind your back?"

"Ah, they can do whatever they like."

"Fine. All you care about is Damian."

Hearing this, Wrenna shot Dora a sneaky smile and hugged her tight.

"You know me so well, Dora."

Xandra scoffed looking at the two girls. "What about me?" she cried, going over to hug both of them.

The three laughed out loud at one another.

When Wrenna's phone rang, a smile lit up her face and she darted out of the room.

Her roommates knew it must be Damian.

Right after she disappeared out of the room, Dora looked up at Xandra as she munched a mouthful of snacks. "Xandra, are we really not telling her?"

"It's not a big deal. We just saw Damian with a woman. They didn't do anything anyway. They were sitting opposite each other. They probably met up to talk about work or they could actually be friends. We don't have to make her worry about something so innocuous."

"But I don't think that's what that woman thinks though. I can tell from the way she looked at him."

Linda stood up and knocked Dora in the head. "Since when can you read people's minds?"

"Ouch! Hey! I can't read people's minds, but I've got my sixth sense. I can feel that woman sees Damian differently. We all know Damian's a big shot. It only makes sense if that girl is into him."

"So you know it's one-sided, eh? That's the girl's issue. Damian chose Wren. That's all that matters. Damian is not the kind of guy to cheat. I'm sure the woman's love is unrequited."

Dora nodded slowly. "Okay, I have to say that makes sense, but that woman looked attractive too. She's older than Wren too."

"Can you just shut up and eat your food?"

Dora looked down and shushed. They had no idea that Wrenna overhead them. She came back because she left something behind, but when she heard them talking about Damian, she stood outside and listened silently.

This bugged Wrenna even until dinner time. She kept stealing a look at Damian throughout dinner.

Her action was so obvious that there was no way Damian did not realize it.

When he could finally not hold it in anymore, he put down his cutlery and looked at Wrenna in the eyes. "What's the matter, Wren?"

She smiled and shook her head. "It's nothing. I'm still getting used to the fact that we are married."

"Huh?"

"Yeah, I can't believe I married you. By the way, I've been giving this some thought recently."

"What is it?"

"Since I don't have a lot of classes this semester, and you know how I have zero talent when it comes to drawing, do you think I should learn how to cook instead?" Wrenna wanted to give it her best shot to be the best wife for Damian.

Knowing Clarissa was a good cook, Wrenna took it on herself to live up to her standard. She wanted to go to classes to learn how to cook.

"Culinary classes?"

Damian was taken aback by her sudden suggestion, but Wrenna already had her mind fixed on it.

"Exactly. I don't even know how to make the dishes you love."

"You don't have to cook for me. That's why we have Cora with us. You just need to focus on your studies."

"Is that a no?"

Wrenna had disappointment written all over her face.

"Well, not that I don't agree with it. You can do it if you want to. You just need to make sure that you can juggle everything in one go and that the place is safe." Wrenna nodded enthusiastically with a bright smile on her face.

"Don't worry, Damian. I'll keep you updated. I'll make sure I become the best cook."

As they always say, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

Damian did not seem to catch Wrenna's hidden message. He just smiled and nodded.

"I'm sure you'll nail it."

Wrenna was elated when she got the green light from Damian. She had completely forgotten about what she heard earlier on.

All she could think about was Damian.

She had absolute faith in him.

After having dinner together, Damian went back to the company to work. Wrenna, who had had a long day, struggled to stay awake waiting for him in her bed.

She kept telling herself to wait for him to come home, but she gave in to slumber in the end.

When she went to university the next day, she was still hung up on the fact that she dozed off the night before.

"What's the matter, Wren?"

Wrenna was usually a chirpy girl. When Dora saw the frown on her face, she went over to ask if anything was bothering her.

"Don't tell me it's about Damian."

Wrenna nodded at first but shook her head right after. She sat on her chair and her blushed face in her hands.

After some time, she looked up and smiled awkwardly.

Dora watched her in confusion as she munched on her snacks. When she saw Linda coming back from the laundry room, she pulled her aside and discussed among themselves what was going on. Dora even sent Xandra a photo of Wrenna smiling at herself.

What's wrong with her? Is she day dreaming?

Xandra sent back a voice message. Dora laughed out loud when she heard it. Wrenna whipped her head around and glared at her. "Hey! don't you know I can hear that? Nothing's wrong with me. I'm just thinking."

"Tell us about it then! We might be able to help."

Wrenna shook her head in determination, but her friends drilled their gaze into her harder.

"Okay. Fine." Wrenna finally caved. She looked around uncomfortably as she muttered, "Well, ah... em... to be honest... we haven't... we haven't..."

"Haven't what?"

Wrenna could not bring herself to say it, but before she needed to struggle any further, her friend beat her to it.

"You guys haven't slept together?"

A flush shot up Wrenna's face. She moved her shifty gaze elsewhere, looking for a place to hide in embarrassment.

Dora and Linda hurried to close the door and moved their chairs closer to Wrenna. "Is there something wrong with you? Or him? Is it a physical or a psychological barrier?" one of them whispered.

"Um..."

"Come on!" they urged in unison.

Wrenna grunted and wriggled in her chair. "There's nothing wrong with us. At least that's what I feel. Damien said I'm still too young for that."

"What? You've obviously hit puberty! Your boobs are even bigger than mine."

Xandra, who had been listening to their conversation through a phone call, finally interrupted. "But you're already an adult though."

"Exactly. Don't tell me Damien actually has some problem that you don't know about and he's just using your age as an excuse. He's a young man too. No one will say no to his wife. Most men won't reject their women's advances unless there's something wrong."

Now that Dora put it that way, Wrenna began to worry.

"Really..."

"Nothing is impossible. Why not you make a move and put him to the test? You guys had better consult a doctor sooner if there's a need."

"Huh?"

Wrenna stared at Dora in disbelief.

Meanwhile, Linda was trying to keep a straight face. She nudged Dora and asked her to stop teasing Wrenna.

"Stop sounding like you have a lot of experience. Don't listen to her, Wren. You should just talk openly to Damien about this."

"Do you think she'll even have the guts to ask? There's no way she'll do it. It's just like asking her to ask Damian to sleep with her. She won't do it."

"But you still can't just jump to a conclusion and say that he has a problem!"

The two were about to start a heated debate when Xandra asked to talk to Wrenna over the phone.

"You know what, Wren. I agree with Dora. You should put him to the test."

"What... but how?"

"Did you wear the clothes we bought together?"

A brief silence followed. "Um... Well... I was thinking about wearing it during our honeymoon, but we didn't go in the end, so..."

"Wear it tonight then. Wear that and go into his room."

"Okay..."

Wrenna nodded reluctantly and hung up. When she was done talking, Dora and Linda had already ended their argument.

As planned, Wrenna went home earlier and requested Cora to set up a candlelight dinner.

When she found out that Damian was not coming home for dinner, Wrenna was disheartened, so she went back to her room and waited for him.

Time ticked by as she waited in anticipation. Wrenna had put on her sexy lace lingerie and was sitting on the bed looking at her phone.

When she heard Damian's car pull up at the garage, she put down her phone immediately and lay down in bed, but she sprang back up again and went over to sit on the couch.

She reclined on the couch and closed her eyes as if she was sleeping. The moonlight shone on her skin, creating a clear contrast against the black lace wrapping around her body. When Damian pushed the door open, he froze at the door at the unexpected view.
