It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1480 Yes I Do (Part Two)

"How about your drawing and painting skills? Have them improved? Are you able to keep pace with your classmates?" As Michelle just joined the course in the middle, unless she was really gifted in this area, she had to study twice as hard as the others. "There are still gaps and a lot of things to learn. But I am trying my best to catch up." In front of Daisy, Michelle was still the girl that she had seen the first time they met. Her humble and graceful manner made Daisy feel very comfortable. "Come on! One day you may become a famous painter and that will bring honor to our family." Daisy patted on her shoulder and gave her some encouragement. Then her attention shifted to the man who walked in. Her eyes softened at the sight of him. "Oh please! Daisy, don't make fun of me. I'm far from being a painter, let alone famous painter." Michelle also noticed Edward who just came in, but she couldn't see Luke anywhere. She was having a conversation intently with Daisy but inside her head were echoes of her own voice looking for him and questioning why he wasn't around.

"If you put enough effort and even sacrifice for it, you will get close to your goal. We both know that it is not completely impossible for you to achieve that, isn't it?" Edward said lazily. He embraced Daisy into his arms and stole a passionate kiss on her lips. He did it so casually, not caring about Michelle's presence. It would have been a ruckus if Justin was also here.

"What are you doing? Michelle could see what you're doing!!" Daisy said as she pushed him away. She stared at him with her face blushed all over. She acted like she didn't like it but she felt otherwise.

"Oh Please! It's as if I am not even here! You may continue, I'm okay with it." Michelle laughed a little. It was true that she envied them, but she also knew that Luke would never be so amorous to her like Edward was to his wife.

"They already took you as if you are invisible even if you didn't say it. So Aunt Michelle, you now know how bad I feel, being left out of this game that they like to play by themselves! Poor me!" Justin walked into the house, his innocent face looking upset. "Justin, what did you say? Poor you? What made you think that there is a poor you?" Edward stared at him with sinister eyes.

"You just display your affection for each other in my face every day. Have you ever considered my feelings? I'm still way too young and worse, I'm still single! You only care about your happiness!" Justin sighed, looking hurt and rolling his eyes.

"Haha!" Michelle couldn't help but laugh. But when she found that Edward and Daisy were glaring at Justin, she immediately stopped laughing, wondering whether she should sneak out now.

"But what I said is the truth!" What's wrong with being honest?" Justin backed a few steps. He didn't think that he had said anything wrong. But why did they look so angry, as if he really had done something unforgivable?

"I think I should go to the kitchen to help with the dinner." The awkward atmosphere that Justin created made Michelle want to disappear. She didn't want to be involved in the danger that seemed to loom above them.

"Hey, aren't you my friend? Don't go! Wait for me!" Justin ran to catch up with her. It was not a joke now. Who knew what his parents would really do to him? He would be an idiot if he continued to stay there. "Look at your son. You educate him so well that he now knows too much at such an early age!" Daisy stamped on Edward's foot to show her dissatisfaction.

"Ouch! What the hell! That hurt! How did that have anything to do with me? You know what your son is like. Does he need anyone to teach him about anything? He learned everything himself!" Edward hopped, holding the other foot with his hand to ease his pain. He regretted that he had forgotten that Daisy could become violent. He was too careless and that was how Daisy got the chance to stamp on him.

"Like father, like son, it's all because of you!" Daisy looked at Edward angrily and then left haughtily with her chin up, a smile spreading over her beautiful face, at an angle that her husband couldn't see.

Edward smiled playfully. He could see from her shaking shoulders that she was laughing hard, walking on the air. Because she had beat him again. Even so, he still felt amused. She was his wife and he would let her do anything she liked. As long as she was happy, he was happy too.

Michelle's return from the trip seemed to have no effect on Luke. He only felt slightly surprised when he saw her in the house, but no other emotions were involved, no excitement, no joy. Such a nonchalant expression was bitterly disappointing for Michelle. But then again, it was something she should get used to.

On the way back to their own house, Michelle followed closely behind him. This time, she was not as enthusiastic about him as she was before. Nor was she looking for or hoping for anything tonight. Probably she didn't want to push herself too hard. So, she chose to take everything easy. She just wanted to get a good rest.

Luke frowned. He found that she had changed much after she came back from the painting trip. She no longer had that intense gaze at him. Instead, her eyes looked calm and peaceful just like clear water. What caused these changes? Was it the broad sky, or was it because her heart was purified by nature? Or was there some other man that made her go cold on their relationship? If this was the case, he would let her go without hesitation. Because he didn't have the right to stop her from seeking her own happiness. Michelle remained silent all the way, lost in her thoughts. When they arrived home, Michelle bumped into Luke who suddenly stopped at the door..

"Awww!" Michelle came back to her senses and raised her head, looking upset..

"What? Is there money on the ground? Watch your step!" Luke said in his usual cold tone. Michelle had already gotten used to his indifference.

"Sorry!" Michelle apologized politely. The estrangement he sensed in her voice made him feel mildly weird and uncomfortable. But he didn't take it to heart. He shook his head and walked into the house.

Michelle touched her nose. It still hurt. But she had never expected that he would be gentle to her. She shook her head helplessly and then followed him into the house.

After a warm bath, she began to organize her sketches. But it was strange that she couldn't replace the landscape painting she intended to hand in to the teacher the next day. She became very anxious. She looked for it all over the house but couldn't replace it anywhere. There could be no way that it could go missing! She remembered clearly that she had put it in the picture book and it was impossible not to have brought it back. She sat on the bed and began to think what could have gone wrong, trying to retrace when she saw it last. Why couldn't she replace it?

Oh shit! It was that damn Erin! Then the memory of seeing Erin in her room the other day flashed in her mind, and Michelle went ballistic. She had put up with her and let her go over and over again, but she didn't expect that the bratty bitch would go further and cross the line. She felt strange that time, when Erin unexpectedly appeared in the room she shared with Hilda during the trip that day. She had no business being there because she did not get along with neither Michelle nor Hilda. Now she realized what she had been up to. 'Huh! Just wait till Monday when I see you in school. You are really gonna get it, you slut!' Michelle thought.0000000
