It'll Come Naturally

Chapter 347 You Again

When Brian just walked out of the hotel, a scream rang out at the ceremony. Jessica covered her exposed chest awkwardly and furiously gazed at Justin who had embarrassed her.

"Little devil, it's you again! What did I do to you? Why is my luck so bad every time I see you?" Several months ago, Justin had also played a prank on Jessica at the Leng residence. Today he embarrassed her again. Last time, Edward sat beside her and she was able to act like a spoiled child in front of him, but today, nobody could help her, which made her sad.

"Aunt, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to step on the trim of your dress to strip you. It was an accident." Justin pretended to sound sincere, but he was actually extremely happy. 'Stupid cow, what goes around comes around. You bullied my mommy, so you deserve this. I'm not a child who is playing around all the time. I keep an eye on the people around mommy. I even have gotten to know my young uncle, ' Justin thought. Justin and Brian agreed to keep their acquaintance a secret. Not even Daisy could know.

"You little punk! You're still making excuses to defend yourself. I'll rip your mouth!" Exposed, Jessica felt embarrassed already. But Justin talked about it openly and loudly afterward, as if he wished everybody to know. Instantly, everyone was watching her. She thought Justin had stepped on her dress deliberately to make her dress fall off. Fortunately, she was quick enough to pull it upward. But some eyes still caught that embarrassing scene.

Jessica hated Justin's guts. If it hadn't been for him, Edward wouldn't have neglected her unborn baby. She wouldn't have been abandoned either. So she thought that Edward would love her again if that bastard Justin disappeared.

"Rip his mouth? Please, try it," a deep and cold voice said. Jonathan raised his eyebrows grimly like a devil out of Hell. He ignored Jessica and with a wince looked at Justin who was acting innocent.

"It's none of your damn business!" Jessica replied in a rude tone. She didn't know Jonathan. When she was with Edward, Jonathan and Cynthia had been abroad on vacation.

"Grandpa, I didn't do it on purpose. Her dress is too long. I stepped on it by accident." Jessica was shocked to hear Justin call Jonathan Grandpa. She had noticed this man who was solemn and dignified as a king, but since she'd only been thinking about Edward, she hadn't paid much attention to Jonathan. Knowing he was Edward's father, she was too stunned to react to Jonathan's words.

"OK. Let's go home." Jonathan was a self-centered man. He never gave a damn about how other people thought of him except Cynthia. So he wouldn't even cast a contemptuous look at Jessica.

Justin walked up to Jonathan obediently and took his hand. When they were leaving, he turned his head and made a funny face at Jessica. He had thought that she would have given up hope for his dad after the last trick he played. This woman hugged his dad tightly in public even after hearing that his dad and mom were married. She made his mom sad. Justin swore to avenge himself on her. Tonight, she was so scantily-clad that her dress had slipped with just a light step on the trim. So Justin thought it was her own fault. Thought Jessica was then almost naked, Justin didn't see anything he wasn't supposed to see. His mom told him that there were things that one shouldn't look at. He did as his mom told him.

Jessica's lips moved a little, with the vicious light in her eyes. 'You little bastard, I hope you can be as aggressive as tonight when I figure out a way to deal with you. You humiliated me tonight and I'll make you pay. You're going to regret you ever messed with me.'

Most people forgot the friction very quickly. However, there was one person who noticed Jessica and was eager to go up and kick her ass. But since his superiors were present, he couldn't do such a thing. That bitch had told him that she was Edward's wife, and tonight he had just learned that Daisy was Edward's wife, not her. He was terrified, because he had done so many bad things for Jessica. If those

things came out, he would lose his career over that woman. Now he realized that Jessica was an impostor, and regretted that he was greedy and jealous enough to believe her lie.

Although Aaron and Rain drank a lot of wine on behalf of Edward at the party, Edward still got drunk at last. Daisy was worried about him.

"Mrs. Mu, is Mr. Mu drunk again?" Luke came up as soon as he saw Daisy carrying Edward out of the hotel. It had been a long day for him. Running security at the party had kept him busy all day, so he hadn't been able to be at Edward's side during the ceremony.

"Yes, he is. Does he get drunk at the anniversary ceremony every year?" Daisy winced. The dress she was wearing was very inconvenient. It was hard for her to carry Edward.

"Yes. Sometimes Mr. Mu doesn't like to act arrogantly, so he usually drinks when people toast him." Luke took Edward from Daisy. He would be off security duty as soon as Edward left the hotel. They rest of the work would be left to Luke's subordinates. His task was to protect Edward. Other matters were insignificant to him.

Hearing Luke's words, Daisy's brows knitted more tightly. She got in the car without one more word. Luke got Edward into the car and closed the door.

Edward never threw a drunken fit and was cooperative all the way. The car was thick with the smell of alcohol as soon as Edward got in it. Daisy wrinkled her nose involuntarily.

"Luke, open the car windows and turn off the air conditioner. Let the wind in." Daisy put Edward's head on her laps. Her brows were finally unknitted. Instead of the usual aloofness, she looked tender at that moment.

"Yes, Mrs. Mu." Luke turned to look at her and Edward, and then curled up his lips. The strong smell of alcohol must have made Daisy uncomfortable. Although Luke had addressed Jonathan as dad, he habitually addressed Edward as Mr. Mu. Jonathan wasn't around anyway. Besides, other forms of address were too awkward for him.

"Thanks." Lying low on Daisy's laps, Edward held Daisy closer after a gust of cool wind blew when the car started, which warmed her cold heart. She smiled and pinched his high nose, at which he moved a little uneasily.

This was the first time Daisy had seen Edward drunk. He was quiet. His skin felt smooth and tender. Since she hardly saw him use face cream, she wondered how come his skin was better preserved than that of most women. The Creator was miraculous to endow such a successful man with good looks and make him masculine and enchanting.

The night was cool in early fall. Looking at the street lamps, Daisy was lost in thought. She was curious about the decision of the military base. She also wondered when Edward had started to socialize with the high-level of the group army. What was he secretly trying to do? She had no idea about all this.

She had been trying to figure out who had reported her to the military base. She thought it was Jessica, because she hated her most, but Daisy had no solid proof. Before she confirmed it, she couldn't accuse her. It was a society which valued evidence after all. Daisy felt confused. Who else could it be? She couldn't think of anybody who held a grudge against her except Jessica.

At the ceremony party, Daisy didn't get any good news from the Army Commander. It seemed that it would be some time before she got reinstated. Never mind. She would just consider it a long vacation. She would still finish the war game report as soon as possible, though, because as the commanding officer of the red force in the war games, she was the most suitable person to do it.

She had lost all hope in Leo. She would have no expectations of him in the future. With a sad twitch of her lips, she suddenly realized how pathetic she was. It was a solid fact that Mary wasn't Leo's biological daughter. Why did he treat them so differently? Did he really hate her so much? She wondered why.

Daisy wasn't narrow-minded. But she got emotional when she saw Jessica hugging Edward. As an ordinary woman, she got jealous. She recalled the sweet days they had spent together. Her heart ached. She had thought that as long as she loved him, she would be able to tolerate anything from his past. Now it seemed that she was wrong. The more she loved him, the more she cared about the little things. Gradually, she lost her confidence and worried too much. She took Jessica's words to heart.
