It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 262

Did he hate her? Or he couldn't accept she was the one he kissed? She probably shouldn't have come in the first place. Maybe it was time to leave. After all, her co-workers from the C Financial Group had left already. At first, she couldn't bear the thought of leaving him, and had persuaded herself to stay with all her might, but it turned out she had made a bad choice. She was still nothing to him.

They both loved each other, but a minor misunderstanding stopped them from declaring their hearts. They couldn't bridge the abyss of doubts and assumptions. Things were getting tougher and tougher for this love relationship.

Annie didn't move, face buried in her long hair, tears trickling down her cheeks. She didn't make a sound, though her shaking shoulders betrayed her sadness. Rain returned but what he saw plunged his heart into icewater. Did she hate him so much? Did the impulsive kiss make her feel so sad? Did she have someone in her heart? A million questions roared through his mind, but his voice caught in his throat. He couldn't step forward; all he could do was to turn around and walk away in silence. The abyss widened.

One quiet night was a sweet remedy for broken hearts, a lovely melody for desolate minds. It was like a beautiful song played on a flute, soundless notes floating in the air -- sad, soft, lasting but always unreachable.

Over one night, the Lin Group was about to fall apart. It had been one of the strongest companies the night before, and now it was on the brink of collapse. Thanks to its retailing business, their stocks hadn't become complete scrap papers. Edward did show them some small mercy.

Jessica's mind went utterly blank. She put her hands on her belly. This was the only thing that could bring her some happiness. Edward could be very cruel and she knew it well. For so many years he had closed his heart to all women around him. She had thought she was different and she would be the one by his side in the end. But this Daisy appeared from nowhere and took all his attention. This was unforgivable.

'Edward, do you really love her? Why is she so special to you? For her, you have no qualms about destroying the Lin Group. Do you know how bad it hurts me? But what should I do then? You know what, the more you want her, the quicker I will get her out of the way. You want to tell her you have nothing to do with me, then I will let her know about our undeniable connection. Let's see how long your protection will last.'

Without hesitation, Jessica picked up her phone, found the name 'Bitch' in her contact list and dialed. If she couldn't have him, no one could. May the bitch enjoy the taste of heartbreak.

The call went straight to voicemail. In a fury Jessica slammed her phone on the sofa. 'Do you really think you could escape my wrath so easily just by turning off your phone? You can't turn off you phone forever, Daisy Ouyang. I will find you in the end!'

"Miss Jessica, what should we do now? At this rate, our stock will be a shambles very soon. All the shareholders are outside and want an answer for this." The secretary's face was covered in a thin layer of sweat. He had thought the Lin Group's reputation could be recovered if they claimed that they were backed by FX International Group. He had been working on this all day but no one was buying it. Things just went from bad to worse, and their stock had fallen to an all-time low over one night.
