It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 158

At FX International Group

"You tricked me yesterday. Annie has never contacted C Financial Group," Rain glumly said to Edward. He was sitting on the sofa sluggishly.

"Relax, nothing happened." Edward raised his head to glance at him. He then continued with his work.

"Are you sure? Did Luke check everything?" Rain got thrilled to hear that.

"Yes. Everything was clear yesterday." Edward frowned, looking at an application for financial assistance sent by an army group. They were asking a lot, but the amount was just a tip of the iceberg for him.

"Unbelievable! Why didn't you tell me about it til now? I thought about it all night yesterday. Look at the dark circles around my eyes!" Rain jumped off the sofa and stood close to Edward to show him his black eyes.

"You didn't ask. I assumed you wasn't interested." Edward looked at Rain and found that he seemed just a little tired.

"That's because I was too busy entertaining the people from C Financial Group. I didn't have the time to call you and ask. Also, I was afraid to hear bad news." His voice went low with the last sentence. No news was still good news. So he had been avoiding any news concerning her.

Edward laughed. He knew very well that Rain didn't tend on the guests. He was too scared. With Annie's incident, Edward got to know who Rain really was.

"What's your opinion on this matter?" Edward passed him the file and waited for his reply.

"This is a sponsorship plan from some army group. How are we connected to them? Did this come via Daisy?" Rain was confused. They had never done any business with the army. Edward used to immediately throw away such files. Why was he interested suddenly?"

"Daisy didn't give me this. I'm just interested." Edward sneered. He remembered the conversation he had overheard a few days back. 'They think Daisy has a weak background? Let me make her background stronger. Nobody can treat my wife in such a highhanded manner!'

"That's a lot of money. Besides, I don't see how this benefits us." Rain started to carefully analyze the file. 500 million dollars was a meager amount for their company, but they were businessmen, they didn't get involved in an unprofitable business.
