It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1743 Illegal Detention (Part Four)

"What are you doing? Let go of me, Edward!" Daisy tried to struggle and get away from his arms in a deadlock. But as soon as she looked into Edward's charming eyes, she just lost her strength and couldn't do anything about it. She wanted to bury herself in Edward's

loving arms and never leave. Her whole body quivered as if slowly melting under his gaze.

"Don't you think that, if Justin really wants a little sister, we should just give him a sister?" Edward smirked while saying these words. He looked at Daisy with intense eyes, trying to gauge her reaction.

"Give him a sister? It's not like we can make a daughter out of thin air. Do you think that it's that easy? Oh yes of course, you do think it's easy. Your job is done in the next five to ten minutes while I'm stuck with it for 9 freaking months. No thanks! Besides, we can no longer have another baby." Daisy rolled her eyes at Edward's words in annoyance. Did he really think that it was that easy? Did he forget that he already had a vasectomy before? They couldn't have any more kids.

"You don't understand. It is not as complicated as you think. Do you have any idea that with today's technology, everything is possible? Besides, we still have the winning card," Edward said in an easy tone with a smile on his face. He knew what Daisy must be thinking right now. Yes, he did have a vasectomy. But he asked Jerry before the operation if this was reversible. He had promised him that yes, he could have a baby again if he changed his mind and wanted one.

"A winning card? What are you talking about?" Daisy asked in confusion. She had no idea what he was talking about. And his smug smile annoyed her to no end. She didn't like the feeling that Edward was hiding something from her with no intention of ever telling her. "You will know it soon, my dear Senior Colonel Ouyang." Edward couldn't help but lower his head and kissed Daisy gently on her lips. In his mind, he considered this talk as a preemptive strike. He wanted another child, and he considered that Daisy already said yes.

"Huh. Whatever. Let go of me. I really have to work right now." Daisy thought that Edward must be messing with her intentionally, so she paid his words no mind, not taking what he said seriously. She wanted to focus her attention on the unfinished work that was waiting for her. She just wanted him to let go of her so she could get back to what she had left undone.

"Fine, go ahead." Edward let go of her without any struggle. He shrugged as if without a care in the world. He thought that what he was doing was good for their son Justin who had been implying that he really wanted a little sister. If they were going to give him that, it would mean that Edward would have a satisfying night tonight. Coming up with a plan, a smug and suspicious smile appeared on his face, suddenly making Daisy doubtful.

"Wait a minute. Why are you letting me go this easily today? And why are you smiling like that? All smug and secretive. You are acting so weird today. Tell me, are you hiding something from me? What the hell is going on in that dirty head of yours?" Daisy was not a fool. After years of being together, she knew her husband better than the back of her hand. Any small change in him wouldn't go unnoticed. She immediately sensed how Edward was acting so out of the ordinary today. She knew something was off, but she just couldn't figure out what. What did Edward really mean by what he just said? She hoped that it was nothing serious. She didn't like the uncertain feeling that her husband could be planning something against her.

"No! I am not hiding anything from you, silly! You are just too paranoid, that's all," Edward hurriedly said, immediately snapping back into a serious look. He couldn't afford to risk it. Daisy shouldn't crack the mystery of what he was planning. But at the same time, he was also a bit surprised and impressed that Daisy could see right through him just from a slight difference in his happy smile. How many smiles did he have that Daisy knew of? Because he himself didn't know. But why the hell did Daisy think that his smile was smug? It was clearly just a happy smile for God's sake!

"You'd better be telling me the truth, or I will be very mad at you. Don't let me replace out that you are doing something behind my back, understood?" Daisy warned him in a dead serious tone. But she just forgot one thing. The man in front of her was not one of her obedient soldiers. He was her husband who was not afraid of anything in the world. So her warning would surely fall on deaf ears. Edward was definitely cooking up something.

"All right, all right. Just go and do your thing. Since when did you become such a worrywart?" This time, Edward didn't try to stop her anymore. Instead, he even shoved her out of the room, because that was all she'd been talking about -- her unfinished work.

The more Edward acted this way, the more suspicious Daisy became. Why Edward was acting like this, she had no idea and did not understand why. Daisy suddenly thought back to the words he said just a few minutes ago. Giving Justin a little sister? He couldn't be serious, could he? Daisy was not sure about it anymore. If Edward was going to push through with whatever he was plotting, she was seriously going to lose her mind. She was going to be extremely busy in the next few weeks, and she didn't have time to deal with Edward's childish and mischievous games. Hopefully, Edward wasn't really serious about it. Oh how ironic it was, wishing that someone wasn't serious about something ridiculous.

Meanwhile, back at Rain's house, the atmosphere in the room was just too heavy. Both Rain and Annie had serious looks on their faces.

"Oh my Rain, is it the truth, really? This is serious! Did Tiana really get slapped by her own mother?" Annie just couldn't believe her own ears. She was very confused. Though she had only met Tiana once or twice before, she felt that she was not that kind of girl, brave enough to go against her own parents. In her mind, Tiana was an obedient daughter who listened to everything her parents told her. So what excuse was there for her mother to even lay a finger on her? Every sane mother would protect her delicate child from even a mosquito bite, yet Tiana's mother was treating her like a punching bag. Annie was at a loss trying to replace any sense in it.

"Yes, I'm telling the truth. It is exactly what happened. Sheena wants her to marry a guy who is much older than her. And of course she wouldn't do it. That's why she got slapped. There's no other explanation." Rain shook his head in frustration. He had a lot of things to deal with which required a lot of his time and energy. These things made him extremely busy and worried. However, he just couldn't ignore Tiana and what she was going through. Adding this to his pile, he felt even more agitated and bothered. He couldn't understand how a parent could hurt her own child.00000000000☐☐☐☐
