It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1785

"Daddy, how did you manage to come here?" Jasmine asked as she reached her daddy. She jumped at him in joy and hugged his muscular waist with her short arms.

"I was on the way back after negotiating some business, honey. Since your school is on the way, I decided to pick you up on the way home," Edward reached with his hand and began to smooth her disheveled hair from all the running and jumping. He then lowered his head and gave her forehead a light kiss.

"Then let's hurry! Before mommy finds out that you picked me up," Jasmine hastily opened the door on the passenger side and got into the car. She dreaded her mother's punishments, especially the long distance running.

"Woah, take it easy! Your mommy went to a subordinate company and won't be back tonight," Edward said as he shook his head with a wry smile on the corners of his mouth. He wondered why his daughter feared only her mother and no one else.

"Really? Daddy, that's great news!" Jasmine went wild as soon as she heard Daisy was absent. Since she was the only person in the family who could suppress her, she could play as much as she wanted.

"My little angel, is your mother that scary?" Edward asked the question after he saw the relief in Jasmine's face. He hadn't been able to understand why she feared Daisy so much. He had also scolded her at times, but she didn't fear him like she feared her mother.

"Of course! One look from her turns my blood to ice," Jasmine couldn't help but shiver at the memory, as if Daisy was looking at her right now.

"Aren't you exaggerating a bit?" Edward frowned upon learning how her daughter felt. He didn't have the same feeling.

"I'm telling the truth. You're not me, how can you possibly understand?!" Jasmine pouted, trying her hardest to be cute.

"You'd better never say that to your mommy, or she'll be upset," Edward reminded his daughter. He knew Daisy quite well. Despite her position of Major General, which commanded respect and fear, she was still a woman. She wouldn't feel okay knowing her own daughter feared her that much.

"I know. I may not be as good as Justin in studying, but I'm not stupid," Jasmine started rummaging through the car's drawers, looking for something to eat. She knew her daddy always had something to eat tucked away in the car.

"I know you're not stupid, you just don't like studying," Edward quipped. This little girl liked being together with her grandfather. She was likely to be the leader of The Mayfly. To be honest, Edward had been opposed to that in the beginning, but his daughter was adamant in pursuing it. After weighing the pros and cons, he finally gave up preventing her, because he knew that it might be easy to stop the body, but there was no stopping the heart.

"Hee! Daddy knows me best," Jasmine found her favorite brand of cookies by the box and began wolfing it down without hesitation.
