It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1630

"I'm just here for Brian," said Daisy curtly. Even as she saw his eyes welling up with tears, she was determined not to forgive him easily. There was no way she could forgive a man who hurt both her mother and her so much.

"Sure, sure. He's upstairs at the moment." It didn't matter who Daisy came for. To Leo, as long as he could see her, everything else was minor details he could live with.

Despite frowning upon his wife's stubborn attitude, Edward did not try to say anything. He loved her no matter what, and if this was the only way she could cope for the meantime, he would be by her side to guide her until she was ready to take another step closer to letting old wounds heal.

"Happy birthday, Grandpa!" greeted Justin. As a child, he didn't know what was going on between the adults, and he didn't want to get involved in it either. Thus, he treated people the same way they treated him, regardless of their relationship with one another.

"Justin. You look taller now. Come here, I have a gift for you!" Although Leo felt somewhat hurt by Daisy's distance, his young grandson's cheerful spirit uplifted him.

"What's that, Grandpa? Is it the telecontrolled aircraft that you promised me last time?" Justin ran toward him happily. It appeared like he was close to Leo, almost as though they frequently met up with each other.

"Go and check it. You won't be disappointed." Leo cherished the happy atmosphere with family around. Although Daisy didn't attempt to offer any kindness towards him, her presence was more than enough.

An inexplicable feeling arose within Daisy as she saw Justin getting along well with Leo while she walked away. Deep down, she couldn't blame her father so much as Justin was a sweet boy who could charm anyone around him.

"Daisy, Edward," greeted Brian. "You're here!" With casual clothes on, Brian looked much more mature than he did a year ago. They seemed to fit him as he looked rather dashing now.

"Hey, Brian. You got more handsome." A bright smile appeared on Daisy's face as she said it. She hugged Brian affectionately, but not for long, as she was pulled away by a jealous man. Edward stared at the man with restrained fury.

"Hey, Edward! Be confident about yourself!" Brian taunted. His eyes flickered playfully, eyeing Edward's stiff body in amusement.

"My confidence isn't what's questionable here," he said coolly. "I'm just taking care of my wife, and keeping her away from another man." Brian's relationship with Daisy was far too intimate for Edward's liking. Thus he often paid close attention and intervened before the other man could get what he wanted. In this case, it was the attention of his wife, Daisy. Edward made a mental note to be more careful of the man, particularly now that he was more powerful and charming than before.

"Don't talk to me as though I'm evil," chided Brian. "It's fine if you're not confident about yourself. I won't make fun of you." Then he turned away from him, and looked at Daisy, his voice completely changing to a more caring tone. "Come with me. I brought you a gift." To be frank, Brian let Edward's words pass from one ear to the other. He couldn't care less whether the man was jealous of him or not. Holding Daisy's hand, he led her upstairs with Edward hot on their heels.

"Really? A gift for me? What is it?" Daisy asked, following him calmly while ignoring Edward's scowl.
