It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1409 Tied In Wedlock (Part Two)

"Yeah. It's very nice of you to ask, Senior Colonel Ouyang." Michelle was embarrassed. She felt as if they met yesterday, but everything had changed now.

"Ha ha! Just call me Daisy. You're part of the family now." Daisy grinned. Luke was unwilling to change the way he addressed her, but she didn't want Michelle to follow his example. "But is that proper?" Michelle hesitated. She felt gawky because of Luke.

"Sure. We're of the same family. Luke has been used to calling me Mrs. Mu and he said he can't change it. That's why he calls me like that. I'd say bullshit, but if he's happy with it, I won't make a big fuss." Daisy didn't expect that Luke and Michelle would get married so quickly. They didn't even go through the proper dating and falling in love phase and now, all of a sudden, they had become husband and wife. They still had a long way to go. Unexpectedly, change was an instantaneous thing.

"Okay, Daisy." Michelle smiled as she purposefully mouthed out the name. She had become more comfortable around these two women of the Mu family.

"Auntie, Grandma said you married into our family. Is it true?" Justin came out from nowhere, blinking his big black eyes and smiling excitedly.

"Huh?" Michelle was taken aback. What an awkward question this boy asked. But she had to answer him, "Yes, it's true."

"Wow. Then you'll have babies, right?" Justin asked another straightforward question. Michelle's face reddened. She just got married and hadn't thought about that. Justin's question prompted her to put it on the agenda, but she knew that it would be difficult to get intimate with Luke. She had become his wife, but it didn't mean that she could now make major changes in his life. He had the final say in having babies, while Michelle was thrown into passivity.

"Auntie, you'll have babies, right?" Unable to get an answer, Justin shook Michelle's hand and raised his head, seemingly innocent, but only Daisy knew that this little fellow was making a show to get attention. If she wasn't wrong, only Cynthia could ask Justin to say these things to Michelle. Cynthia thought that Justin, being the sole grandchild, was lonely without cousins, so she wanted Michelle, who just married into this family, to have babies soon.

"Enough, Justin. You know what? You should ask Uncle Luke that question." Daisy smiled away the embarrassment and helped Michelle out of the hot seat. She knew the boy would ask more awkward questions if she didn't stop him.

"But Uncle Luke is too cold and tough. Whatever I ask him, he'll only say one word! I'm not sure if he means what he says." Justin pouted and hung his head low.

"So you turn to Michelle?" Daisy squinted, crossing her arms at Justin. Michelle just moved in today, and she was still trying to get accustomed to the life here. She must be anxious in this totally new environment. However, Justin was already making trouble by asking her embarrassing questions.

"Fine! No more questions then. Humph! You're bad, mummy." Justin curled his lips and ran away. He dared not really annoy his mom; otherwise he would have to do push-ups as punishment. It was the last thing he wanted, because he would be drenched in sweat and look dirty and ugly.

"Michelle, don't take it to heart. Justin was just kidding. Well, you must be tired today. Don't you need to get some rest? Come on!" Daisy encouraged Michelle. She had had the experience, so she knew how Michelle felt.

"Thank you, Daisy," Michelle thanked Daisy from the bottom of her heart. Luke on the other hand totally ignored her all night. She felt like an unwanted gatecrasher who came knocking on the door asking for food; she had to suffer in silence. However, she was relieved and thankful for Daisy who spent most of the night making her feel like part of the family.

"It's okay. We're sisters-in-law now, so we have to take care of each other." Daisy seldom smiled, but she kept smiling tonight, just to help Michelle feel more at home and comfortable around everyone. Under her strict and rigid appearance hid an eternally fervent heart.

"But I still want to say 'thank you' to you." Daisy didn't know how Michelle felt. Edward loved Daisy ardently, but Luke had no feelings for Michelle. It was two completely different stories of two different couples.

The evening went by and before long it was time to go home. "Silly girl, go home now. Don't keep Luke waiting." Daisy said nothing more. She knew what Michelle thought. It wouldn't be easy, but she had a lot of time.

Michelle went to say goodbye to Cynthia before she left, but Luke wasn't outside waiting like Daisy said. She was disappointed not to see him there, but she brushed it off and confidently raised her head and walked home very leisurely.

When she got home however, it was strange that the house was quiet. 'Hasn't Luke come back? Maybe I misunderstood. He's probably still back in Daisy's house, 'thought Michelle.

A deep frown marred her face. She threw herself onto the couch. She was always optimistic, but now she suddenly felt a bit sad. She really didn't know whether she had made the right decision. She was finally married Luke, but she could tell that he was colder to her than ever and even acted as if she were just a stranger who had nothing to do with him. It was easy to pay no mind to it when they were just people who knew each other. But now they were a married couple, and that kind of behavior was impossible to ignore. However, since she had made this choice, she had to work hard to win his heart.000000
