You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow
Chapter 439

Unaware of what Damian had done, Wrenna flashed him a grateful smile and climbed into bed with him.

Wrenna moved herself into Damian's embrace after switching off the lights, and he put his arm around her in response, much to her delight.

I knew he just needed to get used to it! See, he's hugging me naturally right now!

Smiling to herself at the thought of that, she hugged him back and nuzzled her head against his chest.

Mmm... He smells so good... I've always dreamed of being so close to him! Hehe... Screw what Stella thinks! He's my husband, and I'm not about to get divorced from him no matter what!

Wrenna hugged him tightly, and Damian tensed up when he felt her soft curves against his body.

He thought about pushing her away slightly, but Wrenna had her arms wrapped tightly around him.

I wonder if she noticed anything off about my response...

Fortunately for Damian, she fell asleep fairly quickly, and he let out a sigh of relief when he heard her breathing steadily.

The next day, Jayden confronted Wrenna the moment she arrived on campus.

"I love you, Wrenna!" he shouted out loud while standing before her with a huge bouquet of roses in hand.

That was the first time anyone had publicly confessed their love like that on campus grounds, so it quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd.

"You've gone too far, Jayden," Wrenna said as she tried to make her way past Jayden, but he was quicker and blocked her path once again.

"I love you, Wrenna! Why won't you give me a chance? What's wrong with me?" he asked with a serious look in his eyes and a bright smile on his face.

"There's nothing wrong with you! You simply aren't the one I love, Jayden! Look, you've crossed the line by doing this, so I suggest you step aside now or I'll do more than just hate you!"

While some people enjoyed receiving one-sided displays of affection, Wrenna found them to be an annoying burden.

That was especially the case with Jayden's forceful attitude, which made her hate him even further.

What seemed like an entertaining event to the onlookers was actually a form of harassment, and Wrenna made no attempts to hide her feelings about it.

"Jayden, your actions constitute harassment, do you understand?"

"But I love you."

"Well, I don't love you."

"That's fine, you'll come to love me eventually," Jayden said confidently, much to Wrenna's annoyance.

"What the hell is wrong with you, Jayden? I hate you, and I'm already married! This is harassment, and I will call the police on you!"

Although she was exploding with anger, her adorable face made it seem like she was just putting up a coquettish act.

With an affectionate smile on his face, Jayden shoved the bouquet into her hands and stepped forward to give her a tight hug. He then lowered his head to kiss her on the lips, but Wrenna moved her face away in time, so his kiss landed on her cheek instead.

That drove the crowd around them wild as the sight of a handsome man courting a beautiful woman was always seen as a romantic act.

They were so caught up in the heat of the moment that they didn't even care if Wrenna loved him back at all.

Jayden even waved at the crowd while still hugging her tightly, driving her to the brink of tears from the anger and frustration. Mustering all of her strength, Wrenna shoved him off and threw the bouquet at him before running off with tears in her eyes. That was when they realized something was off and looked at Jayden who had a gleeful smile on his face.

"She's just shy."

Regardless of what the truth was, words about that public confession spread like wildfire all over the campus and social media. Some students even expressed their envy toward Wrenna's supposed romantic encounter when they read about it online.

A picture of Jayden kissing her on the cheek was then sent anonymously to Damian on his phone without any context or explanation, but he wasn't the slightest bit interested in replaceing out who the sender was. His mind went blank when he saw the picture, and he didn't know how he should respond to it.

Should I be angry that someone else kissed her? Or should I be happy that her beauty has successfully attracted other guys?

Just like that, Damian spent the whole day pondering about the picture he received.

He was having dinner when he received her text saying she wouldn't be coming home that night.

He then placed his phone down and carried on eating with a cold, expressionless look on his face.

Meanwhile, in the campus dormitory, Wrenna had been lying in bed and crying under the blanket the whole time.

Her roommates tried to comfort her at first, but gave up and let her be after a while.

"Wren, I think you should tell Damian what happened and have him teach Jayden a lesson! Since Jayden doesn't believe that you're married, having your husband show up in person would be the best way to make him give up!" said Dora during dinner.

"I don't think that's a good idea. What if Mr. Quigley gets mad after hearing about it?"

"It wasn't even Wren's fault to begin with, so why would he get mad at her?"

"But it could lead to more misunderstandings! Besides, I thought Mr. Quigley doesn't like..."

Linda quickly stopped herself when she realized she shouldn't have said that.

She then apologized with an awkward look on her face, "I'm sorry, Wren. I didn't mean it like that..."

"I know..." Wrenna mumbled from under the blanket.

The two of them then motioned at Xandra to comfort Wrenna, only to have her say, "Wren, hiding here won't solve the problem."

Eventually, Wrenna slowly climbed out of the blanket with her hair all messy and her eyes red.

She propped herself up against the wall and hugged her blanket tightly as if it would keep her heart warm.

"I feel terrible..."

"Um... Yeah, we know..." "He kissed me without my consent! It was so disgusting! I hate Jayden!"

"It was just a kiss on the cheek, Wren..." Dora said with a shrug.

"It doesn't matter! I didn't consent to it, so it counts as sexual harassment!"

"What if Jayden was a short and ugly pervert instead? Would you still think it's just a kiss on the cheek?" Xandra asked, her words of wisdom rendering Dora speechless instantly.

She's right... I didn't think of it as that big of a deal, but that was only because Jayden looked handsome! He forced himself on Wren, and we shouldn't be treating his actions differently because of his appearance!

"Yeah, Jayden has indeed crossed the line."

Having been reminded of her unpleasant encounter, Wrenna began crying once again.

The three of them exchanged glances, and Xandra shook her head as she grabbed Wrenna's phone and gave Damian a call.

"Hello, Mr. Quigley. My name is Xandra, and I'm a classmate of Wren. Something very terrible happened to her today, but she's too scared to tell you about it. I suggest you come over and see her now." Wrenna was so busy crying that she only realized what happened when Xandra hung up the phone and said, "See? Isn't this a lot easier?"

"I'll go wash my face!" Wrenna jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom to wash up as well as fix her makeup.

By the time Damian arrived, she was already looking as beautiful as usual.

However, she was still very nervous and gripped her seatbelt tightly after getting into the car.

Her eyes reddened again when she noticed Damian staring at her, and her tears began rolling down her cheeks.

"What happened, Wren? Why are you crying? Don't cry..." Damian asked anxiously.

Wrenna then unbuckled her seatbelt and threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly while crying her heart out.

Eventually, she told Damian about her encounter through incoherent sentences.

By piecing the story together, Damian finally understood what had really happened and felt some kind of relief knowing she didn't consent to the kiss.

"It's okay, Wren. I'll teach that punk a lesson for bullying you!" he said while patting her gently on the back.

Wrenna's newly-applied makeup had been ruined by her tears when she looked up at him. Even so, she was still quite a beauty thanks to her naturally pretty face. Damian wiped her tears dry and gave her a kiss on the forehead as he whispered, "Don't worry, I'll avenge you."

"Aren't you angry, Damian? After all, he kissed me..."

Damian chuckled. "I'm only angry at that guy, silly! It's perfectly normal for people to like someone as pretty and adorable as you, Wren!"

Unsure of what he meant by that, Wrenna anxiously tried to explain herself, "Nobody likes me! I only like you, Damian! I've never liked anybody else!"

Not wanting anything to get in between her relationship with Damian, she was afraid that he would misunderstand and think of her as a promiscuous woman.

Damian held a finger to her lip and said with a smile, "Shh... I know, Wren, I know. Don't worry, I know how you feel about me."

"Do you really believe me, Damian? I've always liked you ever since I was a kid! I've never liked anyone else!" Wrenna asked while staring at him with her still-teary eyes.

Damian nodded in response. "Yes, Wren, I understand. All I'm saying is, it's normal for others to like you because of how pretty and kind you are."

"But I don't want others to like me!"

All I want is for you to like me, Damian!
