It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 289

"What a small world, Mr. Mu. Nice to meet you. You haven't changed much, still young and handsome," complimented Leo Ouyang. Although he was Edward's father-in-law, he had never socialized with the Mus. Therefore, he felt self-conscious in front of them.

"Thanks, Mr. Ouyang. And you too!" replied Jonathan coldly. He hated being interrupted at dinner. Besides, he had no respect for people like Leo. If Leo wasn't Daisy's father, Jonathan would definitely give a cold shoulder to him.

"Thank you! Mr. Mu. I'm flattered," replied Leo. Feeling nervous, Leo unobtrusively wiped away the sweat on his face. He hadn't seen Jonathan for years and he still felt tremendous pressure because of Jonathan's overwhelming and indifferent personality, as well as his handsome looks.

"Edward, can we join you for dinner?" asked Mary. Fortunately, she saw Edward at dinnertime. Feeling excited, Mary made up her mind to go after him.

"Excuse me, but it's a full table. There is no room for you," replied Justin. Since he knew that Mary was his mom's step-sister, he despised her even more.

"Look! An ill-mannered child with poor family education. Who are your parents? Haven't they taught you not to interrupt adults when they are talking? Where are your manners?" Yakira taunted. She didn't know everyone on the table. But she knew all about the little bastard. Therefore, she viciously insulted him.

"Family education? You are the last person to talk about family education," said Cynthia. She twirled her curly hair, then gave Yakira a sideways glance and thought, 'If your sins come out, you won't be able to gloat like this. You'll be imprisoned permanently.'

"What do you mean by that? My family education is none of your business. Look at you, you're nothing more than a foxtrel. Humph!" said Yakira to Cynthia. Yakira was jealous of Cynthia's well-shaped body. She was being mean to her for no good reason. She hadn't expected that Cynthia would turn out to be Edward's mother.

"Don't you dare say that again. I swear I'll cut you into pieces and feed them to dogs," said Jonathan severely. He stared fiercely at Yakira. If she wasn't standing on the other side of the table, he would have kicked her out.

"Mr. Mu. I'm terribly sorry for her poor manners. Please excuse her for offending Mrs. Mu," apologized Leo. His face grew pale. He felt regretful, 'I shouldn't have agreed to Mary's idea of coming here to greet the Mus. Yakira, you stupid woman, look what you've done! How could you make such impertinent remarks in Jonathan's presence? You're signing your own death warrant.'

With a smile on his face, Edward sat comfortably and observed what was happening silently. He knew, when it came to his mother, his father would be the first one to defend her. The only thing he could do now was to sit back and watch.

"Mr. Ouyang, you'd better give her some pills and never leave her off the leash outdoors. If she bites someone, she is likely to be shot to death, '' said Jonathan ironically and threateningly. The only person he cared for was his wife. He regarded others as unworthy of his attention.

"Ha, ha!" Rain snickered. It was fun to watch an indifferent man like Jonathan being sharp-tongued. Jonathan had an unusual sense of humor.

"What are you saying? Are you implying I'm a mad dog?" shouted Yakira. Jonathan was low-profile and indifferent. He didn't want to be a public figure and he seldom attended banquets. Therefore, he was recognized by only a few people. Unaware of his identity and status, Yakira made the mistake of shouting at him.

"Shut up! Don't make a fool of yourself!" rebuked Leo. 'I didn't expect you to be so stupid. Look around, see how people are being reverent and respectful towards Jonathan. And you shouted at him? How dare you. Do you wish to be dog food? Jonathan is named 'Death'. That's why I couldn't turn him down when he said that he wanted Daisy to be his daughter-in-law. Fortunately, I had Daisy's phone number at that time. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known where to find her. I thought it would require a lot of convincing. But she said yes forthrightly, which made me feel both surprised and relieved, ' thought Leo.

"Honey, I..."murmured Yakira. She feared Leo and stopped talking immediately. Now she stared viciously at Cynthia and wondered who they were, 'His last name is Mu. But Edward doesn't have a brother. Who are they anyway? Why is Leo addressing him as Mr. Mu? He looks almost as young as Edward. Is he superior to Edward?'

"Mom, stop talking." complained Mary. She blamed Yakira and thought, 'we wouldn't be in such a situation if you haven't been aggressive in Edward's presence. I wouldn't have lost the only chance to get him. Why are you so aggressive. Don't you understand the man you shouted at is dominating and overwhelming? He looks far superior and more powerful than Edward. It seems that he is some kind of King. Why did you shout at him? You're inviting death.'
