It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 202

"What? The contract was signed? Why wasn't I told?" Edward asked, staring at Anna. He didn't want anything to do with Jessica. The Coco's scandal wasn't solved yet, and he had the troublesome Lin Group to deal with. He should have known this wouldn't be so simple. It wasn't just about business cooperation.

"Sir, did you forget? You authorized the top management to sign contracts in common cooperative cases. You didn't really want to be bothered by the details, so you told me simple cases like this didn't need your approval." Anna replied with a frown. Edward looked distracted -- maybe it was because of all the things happening recently. He normally didn't forget things.

"Oh! I must have forgotten. Okay, you can go back to work now," said Edward. He furrowed his brows and narrowed his eyes to closely examine the file in his hands, trying to find some clues.

Anna looked at him with concern. Then she turned around and left. FX International Group signed the contract with Lin Group, and that meant a lot of trouble for Edward. Jessica could get close to Edward, taking advantage of their working relationship to do other things. And there would be no reason she couldn't.

Edward massaged his temples and lay back in his chair. He silently picked up the phone and unlocked it. He gazed lovingly at the calm and beautiful woman on the screen. He'd taken the picture when Daisy first donned the delicate gown he gave her, gliding gracefully down the stairs. The photo made him feel at ease. She gave him the strength to pull himself together and deal with all the difficult tasks he faced now.

He couldn't get enough of her yesterday, making love constantly. He was so engrossed in the harmony when their bodies tangled together, as if he were desperate to absorb her into his body and let her be a part of him. He was enamored by the feeling of intimacy when she clung tightly to his body. His heart was completely melted.

Luke pounded on the door and walked in, a pile of files in his hands.

"Mr. Mu, this is the material about the investigation of Mrs. Mu," said Luke with a trace of hesitation in his tone. He had checked the contents of the files. He wondered what Edward would think of them after he read them himself.

"Oh! Let me take a look. This took too long, Luke." Edward raised his eyebrows at him. Then he reached his hands and took over the files.

"Sorry, Mr. Mu. You might be disappointed. The only things I found were before Mrs. Mu joined the army. I don't have any information on the base or its troops," said Luke. Luke knew very well that it took him a long time to gather this information. And he also knew that what he had on her was incomplete. He felt bad, but thought it best to admit this mistake quickly and clearly.

"Okay! I see. I only need information on her civilian life. I know that the military can be secretive," said Edward. He didn't expect that he would get any information from the army base. He only wanted to know what happened between Daisy and her family.

"Mr. Mu, umm... I'll take off if there's nothing else." Luke paused when he said this. He wanted to remind Edward not to be too emotional after he read though the files. But he gave up the idea. Luke felt bad for Mrs. Mu. And for Edward, Mrs. Mu was as important to him as his own life, and the information revealed would be a blow. Things might never be the same between them.
