It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 346 I Don't Hate You (Part Two)

"Brian, it's just a small misunderstanding. Never mind. I'll take care of it." Leo tried to comfort his son. Leo had no intention of explaining the whole thing to Brian, because he thought Brian was too young to understand anything.

'A misunderstanding?' Daisy forced a bitter smile; she looked devastated and exhausted. 'That's what he thinks of me and all he has done - a simple misunderstanding. Why would I feel sorry for myself for not having a father, especially when my father is this despicable? It's not worth it.' Daisy thought to herself. "Dad, I was disappointed with how you treated Daisy when she was little. Now please don't make me hate you. A misunderstanding, really? Now I get it. No wonder Daisy pretended not to know me last time we met. That's the reason!" Brian tried to hold back the urge to burst into tears. He knew things wouldn't be as simple as they looked; however, he had never expected that the truth would be horrible like this. He didn't even know what he could do at this point.

Edward said nothing but held Daisy tighter. Daisy had never told him that she met Brian before. Judging from their happy reunion, Edward could sense that she really loved her younger brother. And yet she had to pretend not to know him last time they met. It wasn't hard for Edward to imagine how painful it was. But she did it, didn't she? Her bravery broke Edward's heart again.

"Brian, how could you talk to your father like that? You don't know anything!" Yakira interrupted her son sternly. She had no inkling that Leo would talk to Daisy when her back was turned. She was standing back just now, partly because she felt guilty for what happened back then, and she wouldn't dare to confront Daisy, and partly because Edward was there. Yakira got frightened whenever Edward was around, and she was afraid that she might say something that should stay buried when she got nervous. But since Brian walked up to them, she had no choice but to follow him. And she was surprised by what she had heard.

"Mom, it was all you, wasn't it?" Brian knew his mother too well. Yakira had been bullying Daisy since he could remember things. Brian would never believe that his mother had nothing to do with what had happened to Daisy.

"What? Why involve me? She married a rich guy now, don't you know? She doesn't care about us poor relatives anymore! Why are you so keen on defending her?" Yakira didn't know what was wrong with her son; she'd even doubt whether he was her son if she didn't see the doctor drag him out of her body. She had never gotten along with her son, but what pissed her off was that Brian loved Daisy more than anyone in the family. She tried and failed to nip their kinship in the bud, so she just let them be. Yakira didn't know that Brian and Daisy were still close even though they hadn't seen each other for a long time. She was angry and blamed Daisy for that.

"Aunt Yakira, how can you say such a thing? Do you really think it is all my fault?" Daisy thought Yakira would be better after all these years. After Daisy witnessed how she turned things upside down just now, Daisy knew Yakira did become better in someway - a better liar. And she disgusted Daisy.

"Look at yourself! You've never been nice to me even after all these years. You always put on that sour face in front of me. How do you expect me to get along with you?" Yakira squinted at Daisy and her stunning dress, and snorted in discontent.

"Mrs. Ouyang, I hope you can keep that attitude during the next few days if you truly have a clear conscience." Edward sneered. He didn't believe that Yakira would still be this arrogant when he placed the evidence before her.

"What do you mean, Mr. Mu? You can't just make things up. You're the CEO of a big company, don't you know the word 'defamation'?" Yakira was alarmed at Edward's words. She remembered Edward had warned her once with similar words; it seemed that he had something on her. Yakira knew she had done many bad things, so she was afraid that Edward had the evidence and would use it against her. But she couldn't just stand there without doing anything and see Daisy parade around and show off her new life. "Don't worry. I'll personally teach you how to spell the word 'evidence'. I hope you remember every word you said today." Edward sneered again. Did she just threaten him? Did she even know what was waiting for her?

"Honey, don't mind her. Let's go. Don't you have many clients to greet?" Daisy stopped Edward with a tired voice. Daisy suddenly realized that Edward had once again witnessed her broken life. She didn't want him to. She wanted him to love her because of who she was, not because he felt sorry for her.

"Clients are not important, but you are." Edward said what he meant. He didn't mind that others would hear and envy them. He had wasted too much time not knowing what was important to him. Now he finally found the invaluable treasure of his life - his wife and son.

The only delightful moment that Brian had ever felt the whole night was when he reconciled with Daisy. Therefore, when Edward left with Daisy to greet other guests, he left the party without any hesitation. He had heard too much at one night, and he needed time to think it through. Then Brian thought of the promise he had made to the little boy; his lips curled into a tender smile.0000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
