It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 276

"Yes, Colonel." Mark said while saluting her. He looked at Jessica with a frown before he got into the military Humvee.

"Let me take you to dinner. Let's go." Edward was quite satisfied with Daisy's reaction, at least she wasn't running away from him. She remembered her promise to Edward that she would not leave because of any misunderstanding. She gave him a chance to explain everything and he was glad that he didn't need to drive around the city to look for her aimlessly.

Daisy squinted at Jessica who looked awful. She remembered the proverb, 'The poor person must be utterly detestable.' so she didn't have the slightest feeling of sympathy towards Jessica, who looked down and out. She wasn't so generous that she would share her husband with another woman.

Jessica stumbled. Feeling desperate, she looked at Edward who held Daisy's hand and stepped into his posh Lamborghini. She had never seen Edward act so considerately before. But now he was doing this for another woman before her eyes. 'Huh! Edward, you have become so gentle and soft for Daisy. It turns out that I was mistaken to think that you loved me. Compared to the love you are bestowing on Daisy, I suppose I was nothing to you.' Jessica thought.

"When did you come back? Why didn't you call me? I would have picked you up from the military base." Edward said while flicking strands of hair from her face to the back of her ears. He examined her closely to ensure that she didn't get injured anywhere.

"I planned to call you, but Jessica called me and asked for a meeting before I could make the call. I got angry and decided not to call you." Daisy was easily flustered. His sudden tender moves made her blush. But there was a trace of anger in her eyes.

"How did she get your phone number?" Edward questioned. Daisy's phone number was sort of a military secret. Only Edward and a few people who were close to her had her number. He wondered how Jessica got her number.

"Didn't you give her my phone number?" Daisy remembered that Jessica had sent her an intimate photo of Edward and her. So Daisy had assumed that Edward had shared her number with Jessica. She was carrying a grudge against him for this.
