It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 224

The evening sky was bathed in a colorful glow. The soft light shone magnificently. The light penetrated into the car windows and covered Daisy, adding splendor to her demeanor and making her look calm and dignified.

"Colonel, are we going straight back?" Mark asked hesitantly, looking at Daisy through the rearview mirror. Since Daisy's arm got hurt, he had moved to Edward's cottage to act as Daisy's driver. Since he was her accompanying officer, there was nothing inappropriate about the arrangement.

"Hmm... Drive me to the FX International Group first," said Daisy. She got off work early today, so she decided to take this chance to have a romantic date with Edward. The military exercises would start the day after tomorrow, so they wouldn't see each other for quite a long time.

"Okay, Colonel," Mark smiled in understanding. He got accustomed to seeing her and Edward being affectionate with each other these past few days, so her instruction wasn't surprising.

Daisy continued to read through the files in her hands. She was a very gentle woman in private. But to outsiders, her aloofness was beautiful but intimidating. At first, she deliberately avoided Edward. But now, she could get along with him easily. She didn't want to make her feelings for him seem too obvious. But she felt it was now necessary to let Edward see her love for him.

The top-notch Humvee drove quickly on the wide road of the suburbs. Meanwhile, on the top floor of FX International Group, a special guest had arrived. Every time she came over, she would make a big fuss.

"Sir, Jessica Lin is here. She wants to meet with you and talk about work." Anna knew that the Lin Group signed the contract with the construction company of the FX International Group only because of Edward. But she didn't expect Jessica to come so soon. The contract was only signed yesterday. Now, Jessica has made an appearance and is looking for Edward.

"What? Did you say Jessica? I'm not meeting her. Tell her to talk with the program manager of the construction company. There's nothing for us to discuss." Edward refused without hesitation. He didn't want to have any association with her before everything was clear. And he also wanted to avoid any misunderstanding.

"She also said that she wanted to talk about Coco. If you don't meet with her, she said the consequences would be bad," Anna added cautiously. She admired Jessica's courage to threaten Edward. Didn't she know about Edward's temper after having been with him for so many years? One thing he hated the most was people threatening him. Jessica dared to ruffle Edward's feathers, and he had the temperament of a tiger. What a fearless woman!

"Consequences? The worst would be making me the headline of the news. Do you think I'm afraid of that?" Edward pursed his lips with a sneer. His deep eyes were as cold as ice. He felt stupid for believing that Jessica was a kind and considerate woman. He kept her by his side for many years because he didn't want to break her heart. Now, he was suffering for his kindness. He should've let her go earlier, Edward sighed heavily at the thought.
