It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 515 What Was Happiness

"Relax. I can see why he was furious. He has been demoted to a lieutenant. It must be tough for him. We both got promoted on our own merits, so I know how difficult it can be. I don't blame him."

That's the kind of person Daisy was. No matter how much others provoked her, she would always put herself in their position to understand their perspective rationally. It was both a strength and a weakness. People took advantage of her kindness a lot, leaving her helpless because of this.

"But I don't think he understands you. Do you forget that he tried to bring you down? You're considerate towards a deceitful villain like him, but he doesn't appreciate your kindness. Look at your injury. This is the price you pay for being too kind."

Edward's eyebrows furrowed tightly. Admittedly, it was good to be kind, but Hank kept deliberately making trouble for Daisy because she was too nice. Edward didn't agree with Daisy. Everyone needed to strive hard to achieve what they wanted, despite their different life experiences.

"Daddy, you're right. Mommy, don't keep putting up with a wicked villain like Hank. Because he thinks that he can bully you, he keeps replaceing fault with you."

Justin didn't like Hank's two-faced smile. The sight of Hank made him sick. Back when he lived in the army base, he often hacked his computer and deleted all his files. Because Hank couldn't recover the files, he had to retype everything. It took up so much of his time, that he didn't have time to stir up trouble.

"That's why I didn't intercede for him this time. Why are you both criticizing me?" Daisy felt that she was isolated by Edward and Justin. She knew that she was too indecisive in dealing with the issue of Hank, but it wasn't because she was afraid of him. She did it for the sake of his amiable mother. Otherwise, she wouldn't bear his constant hostility patiently.

"We aren't criticizing you. We're only giving you a piece of advice. Don't treat us as your enemy and overlook the actual villain," Edward sighed. He didn't think that Daisy was a cold woman. She was too easy on Hank, but she was fierce against him. She was never brusque with others.

"I know what I'm doing. Do you really replace me so weak? I just want to pay back his mother's kindness. Although Hank is horrible to me, his mother was always kind to me. When I gave birth to Justin, she visited Hank in the base. She accompanied me throughout the whole childbirth like a mother, and took care of me while I was in confinement. I can't help but return the favor."

Daisy was overwhelmed with gratitude whenever someone helped her and would always return the favor and pay back their kindness. She tolerated Hank despite how much he provoked her over the years. But because he went too far this time, she didn't stop the commander from submitting the video.

"Because his mother helped you, you are tolerant of him." Edward felt guilty about Daisy's suffering in the past. Although he wasn't the reason why Daisy suffered, he had to take responsibility because it was indirectly caused by him. This made him feel helpless. "Yes. You know, I'm sensitive in this respect. I missed the kind of maternal love that she gave me, so no matter how much Hank provoked me, I was lenient with him. If his mother didn't take care of me, I wouldn't let him treat me so cruelly," Daisy sneered. When Edward took Hank as his enemy, Daisy didn't bother to stop him this time. She wasn't directly involved with Edward's scheme and was a mere bystander. As long as she didn't add to Hank's misfortune, she wouldn't go against her original intention. This was the last thing she could do for Hank's mother.

"Fine. I won't keep pressing you about it. Let this matter go. But if he hurts you again, he will suffer the bitter consequences." Edward didn't want to voice out his opinion. He had some reservations about the matter. As Daisy's husband, he thought he also owed Hank's mother a favor. But he would get what's coming to him one day. Edward didn't want to see his wife get hurt again.

"It seems you're not only a robber but also a terrorist. How did I not see it before?" Daisy rolled her eyes. She breathed a sigh of relief when Edward didn't pursue the matter further. Given what Hank did, if Edward continued to pursue it, Hank wouldn't simply be demoted to a lieutenant. He might get discharged from military service.

"It's not too late to know about it now. You must regret not knowing my nature before." Edward raised his eyebrows and gave a captivating grin. He was a virile and enchanting man.

"Yes, I definitely regret it. I was tricked into marriage. Can I divorce you?" Daisy teased Edward. Although he was angry about what she said last night, he was no longer as indifferent as when he first returned home. Daisy's heart was finally put at ease. Edward seemed to be insufferably arrogant in front of others, but he acted like a child whenever he was alone with Daisy.

"What do you think? You're my wife. You can never divorce me." Edward raised Daisy's chin with a predatory look in his eyes.

"Daddy, mommy, I have to interrupt you. Are you flirting in front of me?" Justin glanced at his parents back and forth. They changed the topic all of a sudden. They were just discussing the matter of Hank a minute ago, but now they were flirting with one another. More importantly, they completely ignored Justin's presence.

"You know what we're doing. Don't play dumb." Edward pinched Justin's cheek playfully. Justin was a foodie. But fortunately, he didn't get fat because of it. Otherwise, Edward would be depressed. He was a tall, handsome, and extraordinary man. If his son was a fatty, his good reputation would be ruined.

"I mean, how could you ignore me? Did I suddenly become invisible?" Justin felt wronged. Did his parents really not replace him important anymore?

"Hah! Boy, I wish you were invisible. Then, you wouldn't be able to disturb us." Edward teased Justin. He knew Justin well, so he ignored his pitiful complaint. How unfortunate for Justin to have Edward as his father.

"Mommy, do you think so? Do you think I'm disturbing you?" Justin said in a wobbly voice. He looked like he was on the verge of tears. Hmph! Justin always behaved dramatically to attract attention.

"What do you think?" Daisy didn't give a direct answer. Instead, she asked Justin teasingly.

"Mommy, I'm your only baby. You can't treat me like this! Your response implies that you don't like me anymore." Justin didn't give up. He began to act like a spoiled child.

"Boy, if you're her only baby, then what about me?" Edward's face fell. He was jealous.

"Come on! Daddy, did you lose your memory? Don't you know who you are to my mom? Apart from being her husband, do you have any other identities that I don't know about? Let me guess. You can't be her lover, because you're not romantic enough. You can't be her confidant either, because you keep flirting with her. You also often molest my mom. Well, it's really difficult to describe what you are to her!"

Justin counted on his fingers as he enumerated Edward's behaviors one by one. He had a serious look on his childish face. The adorable expression on his face pleased Daisy.

Daisy burst into laughter. She agreed with her son. Edward cast dark looks at him.

"I'm not romantic enough? Tell me. What should I do to be romantic?" Justin's words reminded Edward that he had never done anything romantic for Daisy, which made him feel guilty. Justin reopened Edward's old wounds.

"I don't know. I'm an innocent child. Don't you think it's inappropriate to ask me this sensitive question?" Justin raised his eyebrows smugly. Because Edward ignored him, he wanted to embarrass him.

"What? You, an innocent child? No one believes that. Don't make me laugh." Edward held Justin by the ear angrily. He was helpless against his mischief. Justin always did naughty tricks, but he often played innocent. Edward wondered if he ever got tired of his antics.

What was happiness? It wasn't about a high status, expensive sports cars, or a large sum of money. Edward's family was a perfect example. They enjoyed each other's company and laughed heartily. They loved each other. Although they kept teasing one another, they never bore grudges against each other. It was what Edward wanted. Every man who wanted a home felt the same way.0000000
