It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 121 Honey, It's So Good To Have You

"Why don't you just ask Leena? She likes Belinda a lot." At last, he was able to travel at a good clip -- the rest of cars were speeding up as well. Traffic was beginning to clear. "Let's not talk about Leena. I haven't dealt with her yet. She ran off before I came back." That gave Duke a headache. He could hardly believe Leena drugged Belinda. "Running away from her problems is so like her. Where'd she go this time?" Edward giggled. His luxurious car zoomed through the city, making the night more fabulous.

"Where else? Grandpa's. Running away timely seems to be her main talent." Duke joked. 'Every time Leena does something wrong, she flees. When it blows over, she comes back, and flashes you that puppy dog look, so you can't stay mad.' "By the way, why did she suddenly come back from Paris? Wasn't she studying design there?" Edward was too busy dealing with Daisy to ask Leena what was up.

"I don't know for sure. I've heard she established her own brand, quite popular in France." Duke spoke to her butler in Paris, which is the only way he knew.

"What? She is so talented! It seems that she has a knack for it, creating her own brand in such a short time. No wonder she wasn't concerned about school. She has acquired achievements already." Edward was quite happy for her, you could tell by his tone. "Just forget about Leena now. I'm focused on Belinda's number." Then Duke sat down inside his car, weary of waiting idly outside.

"Hold on a sec. I'll have Aaron text you." 'Duke must have fallen in love with Belinda this time, or he wouldn't be so desperate for her number.' Edward thought.

"I'll ask Aaron directly. Bye for now." Duke swiftly hung up and began searching for Aaron's number.

'Wow, Duke is really impatient. Man! I need to get home. I'm already running late." Edward thought to himself.

Amidst the flying leaves, the Lamborghini stopped in front of the spacious fancy villa. The door opened, and Edward took off like a rocket.

He ran upstairs, but didn't replace Daisy. 'Odd, 'he thought. 'She told me to come right home. But where is she?' Helplessly he turned around, walked downstairs, and bumped into Mrs. Wu who just came out of the kitchen. "Mr. Mu, you're back. Dinner will be ready soon." Mrs. Wu was all smiles and looked at Edward lovingly. "Okay. Where is Mrs. Mu? Isn't she at home?" He missed Daisy so much. He was upset that he couldn't replace her.

"Yes, she's here. She's getting dinner ready. Should I call her over here?" Mrs. Wu had thought that Daisy only knew how to cook some simple dishes, but it turned out that she was an outstanding cook. Just looking at the dishes she made, they were not so-so at all. "What? She is preparing the dinner?" Edward was astonished. He found Daisy to be quite a treasure house with lots of surprises to be uncovered.

"Yes, sir. Mrs. Mu has been at it all afternoon." Thank goodness that she was there to help, or Mrs. Mu would be exhausted.

"Let me have a look." Then he walked to the kitchen, trying to replace out what she had cooked for such a long time.

There was an air-conditioner in the kitchen, but Daisy's forehead was already beaded with sweat. She was making pan-fried coca-cola chicken wings, her face wearing a mask of happiness and love. Edward watched her, and was as happy as she was. Who knew the colonel would have such a feminine side?

Daisy felt Edward's intense gaze. When she turned around and saw Edward, she was stunned, but soon calmed down.

"Hi! You're home. Dinner will be ready soon." She turned back to the pots and pans she had on the stove.

Edward said nothing. He walked over quietly and hugged her from behind, his chin nestling against her shoulder.

Daisy stiffened for a moment, but she didn't dodge his intimacy. Somehow she felt Edward was a bit different today. He seemed to be keeping something from her.

"Honey, it's so good to have you." Edward whispered in her ear, his voice full of love.

Daisy switched off the stove, turned around and looked at him, trying to capture his difference from his face.

"Edward, what's wrong? What happened?" She felt insecure for some reason, and she didn't know why. Daisy stared at his dark eyes intently. She wanted to see through him, to his soul.

Edward held her tightly and kissed her forehead. It seemed that Daisy had felt his anxiety, thanks to Jessica. That was the last thing he wanted to see.

"Honey, do you still remember what you said? No matter what happens, you will give me a chance to explain." Jessica made him lose his coolness. He was scared to lose Daisy.

"Yes. I remember my words and will keep my promise." Daisy tried to smooth his frown with her fingers. She hated his frown for it made her heart ache and sink. She wanted him happy forever.

Edward couldn't help lowering his head and covering Daisy's lips with his own. He kissed her so intensely and affectionately.

Daisy responded clumsily. Her hands embraced him around his well-built waist. She had no idea why he was afraid, but she would accept it. She didn't know why he brought up her promise again, but she would go through thick and thin with him. Together they would handle whatever got thrown in their way."
