It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 588 An Unacknowledged Bastard

"I just want to give you a gentle reminder," Mary said unhappily, because she had thought Jessica would be so miserable that she was going to sleep on the street. Mary didn't expect that when Jessica heard the big figure, she wouldn't even frown. She couldn't help but "I am the one to remind you. How reliable is the person you hired? Don't forget, Daisy is not as fragile as any other ordinary women. It's not easy to take her down." As her belly was getting bigger and bigger day by day, Jessica got more desperate. She couldn't wait any longer. "Don't worry! No matter how tough she is, as long as she is drugged, she will be as docile as a lamb." Mary said firmly with a trace of evilness in her eyes. She couldn't wait to humiliate Daisy.

wonder-was Lin Group really bought by FX International Group, or did Edward still have feelings for Jessica? If so, the so-called takeover would just be a formality.

"The question is, will she give you the chance to drug her?" Jessica hated the evil smile on Mary's face. Mary's smile was like Jessica's fancy to Edward, which also mocked her coldly.

"I can make that happen. You'll see." Mary curled her lip. It seemed Jessica wasn't as smart as she thought. She was just an ordinary woman.

"Mary, if you want to cooperate with me, you'd better watch your language." Jessica stared at Mary angrily. She knew that Mary despised her at this moment, but she wouldn't allow others to talk to her like that.

"Watch my language? Jessica, you are the one who needs to watch your language! Don't you think you are superior? You didn't expect to be miserable, did you?" Mary didn't care if she could cooperate with Jessica this time. Right now, all she wanted was to humiliate Jessica, and ruin her pride.

"You lunatic, tell me when you are ready. Now I am going to have an antenatal care. I don't want to waste my time talking to you," Jessica said, while taking money from her bag to pay for her coffee. Though she didn't drink, she didn't want to owe anything to a person like Mary.

"Pah, just an unacknowledged bastard. I don't know why she is so proud." Mary looked disdainfully at Jessica's back, and thought Jessica might be unable to have this baby successfully even if she underwent an antenatal care.

The afternoon was so sultry that it looked like it was about to rain. This made people feel extremely irritated. Jessica frowned as she walked out of the cafe. She turned around and smiled coldly at the transparent window. 'Mary, do you really think I'm going to work with you? Since there is a scapegoat, I must be stupid if I don't take advantage of it. I won't let such an opportunity slip through my hand,' Jessica thought. Mary planned everything herself. And if Mary failed, Jessica could blame everything on the stupid woman, Mary, and she could stay out of it.

Jessica bit her lip lightly. 'Edward, you forced me to do this. I wouldn't do that to Daisy ever if you didn't treat me so cruelly and disown my baby. You treat her like a princess and this makes me want to destroy her.'

Jessica had no plan to go for an antenatal care. She just didn't want to stay any longer with Mary. She was afraid that she might get into trouble just like last time with Hank. She didn't want to be suspected by anyone, so she left the cafe discreetly and drove to Coco's place. Because of being banned by the FX International Group in the entertainment industry, Coco was in a bad mood. Jessica thought she should comfort her more. After all, all this happened because of Jessica.

"Daisy, what's going on? "Cynthia asked worriedly, seeing Edward coming in with Daisy in his arms. Cynthia immediately stood up and was worried about Daisy.

"Mom. I am okay. I just sprained my ankle accidentally." She had to face it. Even if she still felt embarrassed about what had happened last night, she had to face the big trouble that she brought to herself.

"You are so careless. Edward, what's the matter with you? How did Daisy get hurt while you didn't get hurt at all?" Cynthia's heart ached when she heard that Daisy was hurt. It seemed as if Edward were a stranger and Daisy were her own daughter. This kind of bond ought to be rare in other families.

"Do you think I should get hurt too? Are you my mother?" Edward placed Daisy on the sofa carefully, and gave his mother an unhappy stare. He also wished he was the one who got hurt. Unfortunately, God was so unkind that he didn't get what he wanted.

"I am just worrying about Daisy. You're not jealous, are you?" Although Cynthia said so, she was still looking at Daisy, without paying any attention to Edward. Right now, she was only worried about Daisy.

"I am jealous? Never mind. I don't want to argue with you." Edward didn't want to argue with Cynthia, and then he said to Luke who just came in, "Luke, call Tom, and ask him to come over."

"OK. I'll call him." Luke would never object to Edward's words, and did everything as asked.

"Luke, don't call Tom. The doctor has already checked me before. I am okay, really." Daisy told Luke not to call Tom. She suffered only a minor injury and didn't want to bother Tom any more. Besides, she had been bothering Tom a lot lately, and she'd be really embarrassed to bother him again this time.

"No big deal. Just call him. He would wish to come over, because he can enjoy a great meal with all of us." Edward smiled. What his friends liked the most was Mrs. Wu's cooking. So they would replace excuses to come to Edward's house, and they often did so during the mealtimes. It was clear that they wanted to come here to have free meals.

"Are you sure about that?" Daisy was a little embarrassed though she knew Edward was telling the truth. She hated to bother people. After all, debt of gratitude was the hardest to repay.

"Yes, don't worry. I'll go upstairs and take a shower" Edward was as squeamish as a prince. The first thing he did when he got home was to take a bath. It was really hard to understand why he wanted to be perfect all the time.

"OK. Take your time." Daisy frowned and thought about how she would face Tom. She sprained her foot and didn't want to bother him for such a petty thing. Tom was a genius doctor of the S City. She wondered if he would make fun of her when he came here. "Dad, you are back. Is my mother back?" As soon as Edward got upstairs, he was seen by Justin who came out of Edward's room. Justin ran happily into his arms.

"Yes. You naughty boy, have you been obedient?" Edward bent down to hold Justin in his arms, and then kissed his pink little face before putting him down.

"Yeah, I am a good boy. Dad, put me down, please. I want to see my mom." Although Edward had called Justin last night, he was still worried for his mother. He had lived with his mother for so many years, so he knew that no matter what had happened before, she had never acted like last night. It seemed that what Daisy did last night really worried Justin.

"OK, but you have to be careful. Your mom's ankle got hurt. Do not jump on her, okay?" Edward reminded Justin before putting him down. He was afraid that the little fellow might hurt Daisy in his excitement.

"OK! How did she get hurt? How bad is it?" Justin stopped when he heard Edward's words. He looked at Edward sideways with deep worry in his eyes.

"Relax, it's okay. She just sprained her ankle, and got hurt on the soles of her feet. Don't worry. Just go." Edward pinched his little face. Justin always talked in a mature way. He was not like other children. This made Edward feel distressed at times. Edward could not help but think how miserable they have been. After all, it was all his fault. So every time he looked at Justin, he felt guilty.

"Daddy, I won't worry about her. I've seen her suffer more serious injuries before, so I'm not worried about her minor injuries like this. " Justin talked about Daisy's horrific past like an adult. After hearing Justin, Edward felt so worried and frightened that his eyes widened.

"You mean your mother got hurt a lot before? Every time she got hurt, were you the only one with her?" Edward had read what Daisy wrote on the newspapers at the military base, but that was Daisy's side of the story. He would like to know more about their former lives through Justin. After all, the newspapers couldn't let Edward really know their past, so he wanted to hear what Justin would say.

"No, I was not the only one. Uncle Kevin and the Commander were there too, but they couldn't stay with Mom all the time, so usually, I was the one who would stay with my Mom. Daddy, why are you asking that?" Obviously, Justin couldn't wait to see Daisy, so he was a bit distracted.

"OK! Never mind. I'm just curious. Just go, little buddy." Edward knew that Justin was a bit impatient, so he stopped questioning him further. Moreover, he would get plenty of opportunities to ask him about it. So there was no need to hurry now. Edward thought so, but Justin's words touched his sensitive nerve. He was lost in his thoughts until Jonathan who walked down from the open-air garden on the roof of the building called him.

"What are you thinking about? Why do you look so absorbed in your thoughts? Didn't you go on a trip? Why did you come back so early?" Jonathan frowned. He was puzzled by Edward's contemplative look. He wondered why Edward was standing in a daze on the stairs.0000
