It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 397

"Where? Over here?" Daisy didn't expect Edward to tease her at this moment. She actually thought that Edward was hurt. She dutifully followed his instruction and moved her hands lower. When she reached his belt, Daisy suddenly realized something wrong. She blushed and instantly withdrew her hands as if she was burned. Without any hesitation, she lifted her leg and tried to kick him. But Edward anticipated it this time and deftly stepped aside to dodge the attack with a sigh. 'She's still as violent as usual!' Luckily, he was prepared this time.

But Edward had underestimated Daisy's wrath. She threw her fist to his face as soon as he dodged her kick. Edward couldn't believe that this violent and ruthless woman was the same person who was submissively leaning against his chest and kissing him tenderly just a few minutes ago.

Alright, maybe he went too far. Edward shifted sideways to avoid her punch.

"Whoa, the messy little piggy turned into a wild cat." Edward knew his words would only aggravate her, but he couldn't help teasing her. He wanted to see her angry face. As mush as he loved her sweet and gentle side, he also liked seeing her so energetic and wild.

As expected, Daisy struck again, quick and hard. If not for the limited space, Daisy might have geared up for a good fight against him.

"Okay, okay. Stop it. I'm tired." Sometimes surrendering didn't mean losing, and it was just another way to get what you wanted.

"Don't you dare tease me like that again." As soon as Edward said he was tired, Daisy stopped abruptly and glared at him. She knew how much work Edward had done today. Although she was still angry with him, she didn't try to attack him again.

"I wouldn't dare. Let's get out of here and have dinner, then I'll take you to an auction." Edward stopped teasing Daisy. He was tired after a long day at work, but he felt refreshed after horsing around with Daisy.

"An auction? But aren't you tired?" Daisy asked with a frown. She thought that they could go home so he could rest early.

"It's fine. I'm used to it anyway. Come on. Let's go have dinner. I'm hungry." Edward took her hand and led her out of the restroom. He moved back to his chair to grab his suit jacket and cellphone. As they were about to leave the office, Daisy let out a loud scream, startling Edward. He stopped and turned around to look at Daisy in surprise.

"Oh no! I completely forgot that we're supposed to pick up Justin! It's his first day at school and I promised him this morning! What should we do now?" Daisy glanced at her watch, turning to Edward in dismay.

"Relax. You were sleeping. I didn't want to disturb you, so I called mom and dad to pick Justin up from school." Edward shook his head. Justin's classes ended in the afternoon. Did she just remember to pick up her son now? He suddenly felt lucky that Daisy hadn't lost their son all these years.

"Justin must be very disappointed with me. Why didn't you wake me up?" Daisy hit her head with her palm in remorse. This wasn't good. She got so focused on Edward that she seemed to forget everything else when she was with him. His presence relaxed her and cleared her head of all her worries.

"Don't worry. I've explained the situation to him. He's okay with it. He also told us to have fun and not to worry about him." Justin called them as soon as his classes were over. After Edward told him that Daisy was tired and sleeping and that they would go to an auction tonight, Justin was a little disappointed. But being a nice boy, he understood later and waited for his grandparents to pick him up.

"But what about my clothes? Will this dress do?" Daisy couldn't say that she was fashionable. Probably because she barely had the chance to wear anything besides her uniform, she knew little about fashion. All her clothes were simple and casual outfits. But if she was to attend a special occasion as Edward's wife on behalf of the FX International Group, she didn't want to bring shame to Edward by wearing something shabby.

"It's perfect. We're going to the auction as guests. We're not opening the show. Don't worry about it." What Daisy didn't know was that the dress she was wearing was one of the current season's latest collections and was designed by a famous designer. It was one of the outfits Edward bought for her when she came to live with him. It was perfectly suitable for the event tonight.

"Okay, if you say so. Just don't make me wear an evening dress like last time, and I'll be fine." Daisy felt her stomach twist uncomfortably when she thought of the dress she wore at the anniversary party. Although the dress was stunningly beautiful, she couldn't move properly in the restricting dress.

"Let's go. No one will force you into an evening dress tonight." Edward wrapped his arm around her slim waist and walked out of his office with her, his gaze full of love and tenderness.

"Mr. Mu, Mrs. Mu. Are you heading back?" Anna stood up to greet them when they stepped out.

"Anna, why are you still here? Shouldn't you be gone by this hour?" Edward asked in confusion, glancing around the empty office in this floor.

"How can I leave while you're still working? And you haven't told me if I should send someone to the charity auction tonight." Anna knew Edward was extremely busy today, so she wouldn't dare leave first, in case something unexpected came up and Edward needed her assistance.

"Thank you, Anna. You can go home now. I'll go to the auction with Daisy. You don't have to send someone else." Edward knew he would have to spend a fortune at the charity auction, whether he attended or not. He might as well bring Daisy, in case she found something she liked. If she did, maybe the money would be well spent.

"Okay, I'll leave now. Have a fun evening, Mr. Mu, Mrs. Mu." Anna replied with a gentle smile. She was once again amazed by Daisy's beauty and elegance as she gazed at her. No wonder Edward married her, she was definitely one in a million.

"Thank you. Take care." Daisy was fond of Anna. She wasn't arrogant or flirtatious. Every time Daisy saw her, she was always calm and confident. In Daisy's eyes, both Anna and Belinda were great business women.

"You too. Goodbye." Anna smiled and nodded at the both of them, walking towards the elevator. Daisy then noticed Anna's graceful and attractive figure.

"I think you should give Anna a raise. Look how hardworking she is! She stayed overtime to wait for your instructions." After watching Anna get into the elevator, Daisy turned her eyes to Edward and teased him with a mischievous smile.
