You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 406
Yarick felt depressed because he was being med.
However, he genuinely thought that it was delicious.
rissa did take a bite of the barbeque meat before she threw up.
What followed next was utter chaos. Matthew carried rissa inside and even called for a doctor. He
became a nervous wreck as if something terrible had happened.
Yarick was shocked. Matthew’s reaction made it look like he had poisoned the food.
He quickly exined. “I didn’t do anything. It’s just grilled meat, and nothing else was added yet…”
When they saw how anxious Yarick was, everyone else couldn’t resistughing.
Feeling exasperated, Yarick grabbed Jeremy’s cor and threatened, “What are youughing at?
What?”
Pushing him away, Jeremy replied with a smile, “Yarick, can you stop making a fool of yourself? This
has nothing to do with you. It’s just rissa’s stomach acting up.”
“What do you mean her stomach? That…”
Suddenly, Yarick froze when the answer dawned upon him.
He roared, “Damn it! rissa’s pregnant? Sigh, why didn’t Matt tell me? I was all worked up for
nothing. It’s wonderful news after all.”
“Don’t be stupid. The baby is still in its first trimester.”
“So why can’t he share it?”
Everyone rolled their eyes.
Having learned his lesson, Yarick tsk-tsked before concluding, “Matt, well done!”
“Haha…”
Ellie couldn’t help butugh, causing everyone else to join her. They were simply amused by Yarick’s
antics.
Meanwhile, rissa’s morning sickness was triggered, and she was unable to stop vomiting.
Everything she ate was thrown out. Any strong smells in the house would generate a simr reaction,
be it detergent, shampoo, body wash…
She couldn’t tolerate any fragrance at all, including those from food.
Even if the food was tasteless, she would also puke.
Every day, Matthew would watch her go through the same routine. He was shocked as to how torturous
it was to bear a child.
In fact, he couldn’t imagine the extent of how painful it could be.
Regardless of how much time he spent on theory, nothing could beat the stimtion of the actual
experience.
Once again, rissa puked till she almost lost consciousness. Without any strength left, Matthew
quickly hugged her in support.
With his eyes reddened, Matthew could hardly hold back his tears when he saw how much she was
suffering.
Holding her tightly, he fed her some water. After he put down the cup, she was already asleep in his
arms.
Even then, her brows were knitted as if she was still in difort.
Matthew kissed her on her forehead, sympathizing and feeling heartbroken at the same time.
Perhaps, she can only get some proper rest in her sleep.
Given the circumstances, he sought help from all sorts of doctors. Unfortunately, no one could provide
him with a solution for morning sickness.
Everyone reassured him that it was normal. Once rissa got through the period, she would be fine.
However, no one knew how long it wouldst would be.
However, Matthew no longer had the patience to see her suffer for another day.
In fact, when he saw how she hugged him while crying in difort the other day, he had the urge to
abort the child instead.
Unfortunately, aborting the child would cause greater damage to her health.
Hence, Matthew regretted ever wanting a second child.
He felt that he should have been the one to suffer.
Usually, mornings were the worst for rissa. She would puke the moment she woke up. During
meals, she would vomit a few more times. After meals, she would continue to throw up. If there was
nothing to stimte her, she wouldrgely be fine for the rest of the day. At night, she would go to bed
early to avoid any difort.
One morning, she suddenly felt nauseous the moment she opened her eyes. Out of habit, she got out
of bed and headed for the bathroom. Matthew quickly carried her as he was well trained by now. Inside
the bathroom, she threw up…
argh…
Just when rissa was retching, she suddenly heard sounds of barfing beside her.
Stunned, she turned and saw Matthew retching at the same time. He looked miserable and seemed to
be suffering. In fact, he didn’t appear to be pretending at all.
Staring at him in shock, she felt her nausea disappear.
“Hubby, a-are you alright? Is there something wrong with your stomach?”
Matthew felt terrible after vomiting. His stomach churned while his throat was contracting, making him
nauseous.
Waving his hands, he smiled at rissa to reassure her.
“I’m fine. Are you not feeling well? Wait for a while. Stay here while I pour you a cup of water. I…
argh…”
Before he could finish, Matthew continued puking.
Half an hourter…
Matthew and rissa were both slumped on the sofa, feeling drained and miserable.
Looking at rissa, he noticed that some color had returned to her face even though she still looked
pale.
The doctor smiled at them both. “Couvade… in other words, Mr. Tyson is… erm, hehe… pregnant…”
While rissa was stunned by the doctor’s words, Matthew’s expression darkened.
Snort…
The moment she snickered, rissa quickly covered her mouth. She then gave Matthew aforting
smile.
“I understand that you’re worried about me, Hubby. It’s all for my sake. I’m notughing at you, really…
I know… snort…”
Despite what she said, rissa couldn’t suppress her snicker.
And then, she simply burst into unrestrainedughter.
Feeling awkward, the doctor hurried away after leaving them some instructions.
As for Matthew, he continued vomiting till he was seeing stars.
Instead, rissa was feeling a lot better. Enjoying a fruit tter, sheforted Matthew when she saw
how sickly he looked. After that, she called everyone to share the hrious development.
“Hahaha… Uncle Matt, congrattions on getting pregnant.”
“Hahaha… Congrattions, Matt, looks like you hit the jackpot!”

Within a few days, many of their friends came over to gloat by congratting Matthew on his
“pregnancy”.
As for rissa, her morning sickness was gone after being shocked by Matthew.
While she feeling better, Matthew was losing a lot of weight instead.
Consequently, he had to take some time off from work.
Meanwhile, Donnie had to keep the secret. There was no way he could tell the staff that the president
was “pregnant” and on maternity leave.
Obviously, he was equally amused. Nevertheless, he had to draw on his amazing acting skills to act
normally in front of Matthew.
With that, Matthew began his “maternity leave”.
Every morning, rissa was woken up by the sound of Matthew’s retching. She would enjoy delicious
food while watching him suffer from drinking a ss of water. In the evenings, he would endure his
difort while reading to her…
Hence, rissa appreciated everything he had done.
At night, she put her arms around him and stroked his chest to give himfort.
“Hubby, the doctor told us that the cause is psychological. You must have been too stressed out by my
condition. Hence, you have to calm down and not worry too much. Look, have I not fully recovered?
So, you have to get well soon. Even if you carry the baby on my behalf, I will feel bad too.”
Matthew replied softly. “Mmm-hmm. I should be well soon. The doctor said that it usuallysts three
months. I expect to recover very soon.”
Reaching out to stroke his face, rissa could feel that his cheeks had sunken in.
“You have lost weight.”
Moving her hand down, she realized that his six-pack was gone.
“Even here. At this rate, you won’t look as attractive anymore…”
She continued moving her hands down…
When Matthew froze suddenly, she giggled. “Can this slim down too?”
Matthew’s gaze darkened as he grabbed onto her cheeky hand.
He warned her with a raspy voice, “Stop fooling around.”
rissa snorted. “I’m being serious. You should stop losing weight. It’s bad for you and it makes me
feel terrible. Furthermore, it would be troublesome if your manhood slims down too.”
She maintained a straight face throughout.
Taking a deep breath, Matthew grabbed her hand and hugged her tight.
“If not for the fact that we can’t make love, I really do want you to check out if I have really lost weight
down there.”
“In that case, you should recover as soon as possible.”
Matthew grunted in acknowledgment. “Sure, I’ll try my best.”
Despite his promise, it would still be some time before Matthew’s torture would end.
Meanwhile, Ellie came by with Shawn to report that Hry’s murder was solved. And that was when
Matthew’s reputation was ruined in front of Shawn.
The situation was made worse by Ryler’s arrival. He too saw Matthew in his condition.
When Ryler couldn’t hide his amusement, Matthew simply let it slide.
“Zach is the murderer.”
Ellie sneered, “I had assumed it was Shermaine.”
rissa furrowed her eyebrows.
“The motive?”
“Hry had evidence of Zach’s wrongdoings, which included tax evasion. She used it to ckmail Zach
into transferring the shares of thepany to her. In a fit of rage, he strangled her to death. After that,
he made it look like shemitted suicide and refused an autopsy, hoping to cover up the matter.
However, there is no escape for the guilty.”
After a long silence, rissa sighed.
She didn’t want to hear about the details.
Regaining herposure, she said to Ellie, “Justice doesn’t serve itself. Shawn has been amazing,
don’t you think?”
Squirming her lips, Ellie replied, “Well, you could say that.”
Everyoneughed in response.
After Ellie and Shawn had left Zen Hignds, Ellie was still upset.
“Even if Shermaine didn’t kill anyone, doesn’t she bear some responsibility? I’m pissed that she misled
your investigations on purpose and even refused to admit it. Can you arrest her and charge her with
something?”
Ellie felt indignant over Shermaine’s behavior.
Although it was obvious to them, there was nothing much they could do about it. Hence, Ellie didn’t see
the need to tell rissa.
After all, knowing about it would only intensify her anger.
