It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1799

Edward frowned when Daisy turned him down. He had originally planned to take her out for relaxation. However, she said that she'd rather stay at home.

"Dad? Mom? Are you sure you don't want to come with us?" Jasmine asked while adjusting her one-piece dress. She decided to wear girlish clothes today since her grandfather, Leo, called her a tomboy the last time. What a bad decision though because she was feeling so uncomfortable with it now.

"We're not going. Just go there with your brother." Daisy gently smoothed a wisp of hair from her eyes and tucked it behind her ear. She still looked beautiful despite her age and it was obvious how the years that had passed treated her so well.

"Not again! Grandpa would be so disappointed. I heard him murmur that he hadn't gotten much time left the last time we were there. I felt sad upon hearing that," complained Jasmine while pouting her lips. She discreetly stole a glance at her mother to see her reaction.

However, Daisy remained cold and didn't even show any emotion at all. She just bit her lower lip as she pretended to hear nothing at all.

"Jasmine, hurry up! We're late!" It was Justin's loud voice that broke the uncomfortable silence between the two. He was already waiting for her in the car for minutes and Jasmine's delay was already annoying him to the hilt.

"For God's sake shut up!" Jasmine shouted back and trotted out of their door. Her face was still sour when she opened the passenger seat door forcefully and dumped herself into the car.

Daisy saw everything and she couldn't help but frown at Jasmine's attitude. She had always wanted her daughter to be an independent girl. She couldn't be happier that Jasmine was indeed independent now. However, her little child had grown up to be rude and that troubled Daisy a lot.

"Edward, do you think I've gone too far on Jasmine? She doesn't act like a girl at all." Daisy turned to Edward who was just silent the whole time while reading the newspaper. He might have aged but it was obvious how perfect his face still was.

"Well..." he started hesitantly. The question instantly put him in a dilemma if he should tell his wife the truth or not. Making Daisy angry was not really part of his plans today.

"Loosen up! I won't blame you for that," urged Daisy impatiently.

"Well, she has a positive mentality and I think that's great. Nevertheless, I'm afraid that she might get beaten up one day. Her attitude is beyond decorum." Although Edward was a powerful man, he really couldn't assure that he and Daisy could protect their little princess round the clock. Jasmine had already grown up and frankly, his daughter's wild demeanor was something that worried him too.

"I don't think so. Look at her! She has a heart of stone. You heard what your father said, right? Does your father really think that Jasmine can take over The Mayfly?" Daisy asked anxiously. As a soldier, she knew how dangerous it could be to manage the underground forces. All she wanted was for her daughter to have a simple and happy life.

"Rest assured. We don't even have to worry about that since father thinks that she is capable. Father seldom thought highly of anyone but he has praised Jasmine so many times. The old man must have seen her forte." Edward stood up from the single sofa and walked up to Daisy who was sitting just across his. He then patted her back to console her. He had faith in their daughter and wasn't even bothered about her being with The Mayfly in the future.

"I hope so." Daisy sighed with resignation. Their daughter's fate had already been decided and she couldn't do anything about it anymore. The only thing left for her to do was to accept the fact that her daughter was going to take over The Mayfly soon.

It was already almost noon when Justin and Jasmine arrived at the Ouyang family house. The siblings hadn't been on the parking lot long when a handsome boy ran towards them and greeted them warmly. "Justin, Jasmine, you're finally here. Grandpa has been waiting for you two and his constant nagging is already driving me crazy!"

"Haha! Enrique, is that true?" Jasmine laughed and pinched the boy's chubby cheek.

Enrique Ouyang was Brian's son. He was ten years old and closely resembled Brian. He was a very handsome boy since he got most of his genes from his dad.

"Let's go inside. My mom was so upset that she almost cried." Enrique Ouyang reached out to grab Justin's hand quickly. However, he was careful while keeping a certain distance from Jasmine as she was fond of pinching his face.
