You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 428

Chapter 428 He Is My Dream Man

Throughout their journey back home, Wrenna rested her chin on her hand, smiling shyly. She was still savoring the moment they had together.

When Damien looked over at her, her face turned red and she looked away, hiding her face in her hands.

This was the first time they had such close interaction. This explained why Wrenna was having a hard time getting over it.

Although it had been a year since they got engaged, they had never done anything more than just holding hands or giving each other a simple kiss on the forehead. Damian had never kissed Wrenna in the lips—not until when she went to the airport on her own during their honeymoon. Even then, it was just a peck, but this time, it was different.

This was Wrenna’s first kiss. A real kiss.

Besides, Damian did not leave after they kissed, so Wrenna found it difficult to calm herself down.

Once they got home, she leaped off the car and ran inside. Behind her, Damian shook his head smiling.

Ring! Just as he was about to go inside after parking the car, his phone rang.

“Damian…” A sobbing voice came from his phone right after the call went through. “Please tell me you didn’t do it on purpose. You can’t do this to me… You knew that’s the place we had our first date. Why did you do that?”

Damian’s countenance changed upon hearing the woman’s voice.

“I’m sorry. There must be some misunderstanding, Ms. Lane.”

Damian ended the call. He did not even give her a chance to speak.

He remained outside the house and decided to smoke a cigarette.

Wrenna was dismayed when she saw him smoking from beside the window.

She was about to dart downstairs when Damian turned back and spotted her looking at him.

He shot her a smile and she decided to just stay where she was.

She only went down when Damian came into the house.

“Damian…” she said carefully with a soft voice, “I really miss the noodles you made the last time. Can you make some for me?”

Although it was just noodles with tomato sauce, Wrenna really liked it when she first had it at the Tysons. Damian even made the noodles from scratch back then. That was why Wrenna had a deep impression of the dish. She had always thought it was the tastiest food in the world.

“Of course. I’ll make it right away.”

“I’ll help you,” Wrenna said, following him into the kitchen.

When Cora saw both of them coming in, she went back to her room to leave the two to their own.

Wrenna felt a little headless staring at the facility in the kitchen.

“Um… I’ll get the vegetables ready.”

She went over to the refrigerator and took out some tomatoes before washing them over at the sink.

After cutting them, she put them all on a plate and looked at Damian for further instructions.

“You can just wait while I cook. I don’t want you touching all these knives.”

A warm bliss budded in Wrenna’s heart. She nodded quietly and sat down at the kitchen table while Damian busied himself.

She watched his every move as he cooked as if she was trying to memorize every bit of his action. She felt she was the happiest woman in the world.

It did not take long for Damian to finish making the noodles. Wrenna was already getting impatient waiting to taste the food.

“It looks so good I can’t bring myself to eat it.”

Her compliments left Damian speechless. “Enough talking. Let’s dig in. I’ll make this more often if you like it.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. Just tell me whenever you feel like having it.”

Wrenna’s eyes sparkled in excitement at his promise. Damian chuckled and flicked her forehead.

“Just eat.”

“Alright!”

Wrenna picked up her cutlery and ate without saying a word, taking her time to enjoy the best food in the world.

When she finally finished the whole bowl of noodles, she already had a food baby sticking out. She was so full she had to take some medication to help with her digestion.

She let out a satisfied sigh and rested her head against Damian’s shoulder.

“Don’t get me wrong. The food is impeccable. It’s just that I ate too much.”

“You don’t have to keep explaining yourself, Wren. I’m not angry.”

Damian was actually more concerned about her having indigestion.

Wrenna misread his facial expression thinking he was offended that she found his food to her distaste.

Damian just realized that Wrenna was always walking on eggshells when she was at his place and he did not like it. In fact, it bothered him to see her like this. She was constantly paranoid about landing on his bad side.

He pulled her into his arms and spoke gently. “Wren, can you stop being like this? Why are you always afraid that I’ll get angry with you? You weren’t like this before. I want you to just do whatever you like here. I want you to open up to me and share your emotions with me. I’m not just like a brother to you. I’m also your husband. We’re spending the rest of our lives together. How long do you have to keep acting like this?”

Wrenna fell into silence as she listened.

“Wren?”

“Um, alright. I’ll do as you said.”

Damien tilted his head and looked down at her only to find her putting her hand on his chest as if she was having a good time lying in his embrace.

A smile broke out on his face.

He decided to just let her off the hook. He figured that if he treated her better, she would become more comfortable around him one day.

Now that they were married, there was no reason why Damian would not treat her well. To him, marriage was a lifelong vow. Since he had made this decision, he would stick to her till the end.

They still had forever to spend together, so it would just be a matter of time before she became at ease around him.

……

When Wrenna woke up the next morning, she found Damian beside her.

She shot up immediately and looked at him as if she was afraid he would be gone.

“Morning,” Damian greeted her.

“Morning…”

“Since we missed our honeymoon, should we just go on a trip when you’re on semester break?” Damian suggested.

“Yeah, sure.”

She nodded her head sheepishly, still struggling to open her eyes.

“You should just go back to school and attend classes for now.”

“Okay.”

Damian reached out and ruffled her hair tenderly and then planted a kiss on her forehead. “Come on, go wash up. I’ll send you to school.”

Wrenna was a sophomore in the Department of Art at her university. If Damian had not reminded her, she had completely forgotten that she still had to go to classes.

She had already applied for leaves for their honeymoon, but it was not like she could stay at home forever. Besides, Damian would never agree to her skipping classes. He did not want her to be left behind.

Everyone at her dormitory was surprised to see her. Three of her friends attended her wedding earlier on, they were not expecting her to be back so soon.

“Well, something came up at Damian’s company, so we didn’t go on a honeymoon. We’ll just go in the next semester break.”

“What? That’s a bummer. What happened at his company though? I can’t believe work is more important than you. Don’t tell me there’s no one else to solve the problem at his company,” Dora complained.

“Don’t be so judgmental. Damian’s the president of his company. Of course, he has to be there when something happens.”

Linda sure was the more rational and understanding one among them.

Another roommate, Xandra, let out a yawn listening to them. “What’s all this buzz about, huh? It’s no big deal though. It’s not like a man can completely stop working after he gets married. I’m sure Damian cares deeply for Wren, else she wouldn’t fall for him in the first place.”

“Calm down, people. Damian is a responsible man. He can’t just leave his company behind like that. He will never shirk from responsibility,” Wrenna came to his defense.

The three girls rolled their eyes listening to Wrenna go on and on about all the commendable qualities of her husband.

They knew that to Wrenna, Damian was the perfect man. Never had she set eyes on any other men.

When Xandra fully woke up, she sat up on her bed and gave Wrenna a sweet smile. “But Wren, seriously, what is your next step now that you’re married?”

Wrenna had always wanted to marry Damian ever since she was a kid. Back then, she never once thought this dream would come true. She had always felt inferior before Damian.

Little did she know, her dream would actually come true one day when she turned twenty. She got married to the man of her dream.

Everyone in her dormitory knew of her childhood dream. She kept nothing from them ever since they became roommates.

When they eventually found out what kind of a person Damian was, they all encouraged her to pursue her dream, but truth be told, before Wrenna could do anything, they had already got engaged.

After that, they got married once she turned twenty.

Wrenna fulfilled her dream just like that.

“Huh? My next step? What do you mean?”

Wrenna was at a loss.

She had no idea what Xandra was talking about.

“I don’t have anything planned though. We’ll probably have a family together. I want a son and a daughter. I hope they take after Damian. He’s way smarter than I am. I only wish I can be good enough for him. I’ll do my best to be the best wife and best mother.”

“Is that all?”

“Yeah.” Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Xandra nodded lazily and stretched her arms on her bed. “That can do. It’s a simple life.”

“Yeah, it’s a simple life. That’s all I want. After all, it’s not like I’m super talented. I can’t be an artist like you. Make sure you don’t forget about me when you become famous one day. I will be there for your art exhibition,” Wrenna said to Xandra before turning toward the others, “I also have high hopes for the rest of y’all. I’m sure both of you will be successful one day. As for me, I’ll be the best wife for Damian.”
