It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 189

"Honey, c'mon, don't be so cruel, I'm your husband. How can you have the heart to do that to me?" asked Edward. He fastened Daisy's safety belt and then gently kissed her on her forehead. Then he buckled up himself, smiled at her, and slowly started the car.

Daisy blushed a little, and thought, 'Is it really necessary to say so many sweet words?' He did all kinds of thoughtful things for her as he joked. How could she not love such a tender man like him?

"I told you that Mark would drive me home. Why did you come?" The question was eventually raised, the one that Daisy had been dying to ask. She now evaded his playful tone on purpose.

"Didn't somebody say she missed me? I rushed here to let you see me. Aren't you moved?" While holding the steering wheel, Edward glanced sidelong at her, half playful, and half serious. He looked both charming and mischievous.

"Yes, I am. I'm so moved that I put myself in a perilous position, like a sheep falling straight into the tiger's mouth." Although Daisy was happy inside, she acted otherwise.

"Wait a second. Honey, didn't you say that you were a dog? How did you become a sheep all of a sudden?" Edward was much more eloquent, and it seemed he had a reply ready for everything she was throwing at him. Daisy was annoyed.

"Are you driving the damn car or correcting me?" Daisy cursed whenever she was pissed off. 'Why does this guy have to take everything so seriously? Can't he just humor me for once?' she thought.

"Fine. Seriously now, are you going to see the Ouyangs tonight?" Edward asked cautiously, and observed her expression. This was the first time that he had ever mentioned of her family.

Hearing his question, Daisy was in a daze for a second. Did the family still have anything to do with her? No! So many years past, she had accepted the fact that she was no longer a member of the family, although it still hurts to think about it.

"What Ouyangs? I don't know them, and please don't mention them anymore. I have nothing to do with them." Daisy's face darkened all of a sudden. She didn't know why Edward had brought the issue up. She no longer belonged to the family the minute she had been thrown out of the house.

Edward was dumbfounded at her reply. He had guessed that she didn't get along with her family, but he hadn't expected her to react like that. Sensing her melancholy, he didn't know what to say.

After a period of silence, Edward couldn't help but ask again, "At least can you tell me why?" The issue had been puzzling him for a long time.
