It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 296

"You didn't have dinner, did you? But where's Luke? I don't see him here." Daisy was a little embarrassed because of Edward's sudden kiss; she tried to distract him by randomly saying something else. Meanwhile, she was indeed wondering where Luke was. Luke would never leave Edward alone out there at this hour. What happened?

"Nothing. I told him to leave first. It's the army base, right? What could possibly happen to me?" However, the truth was Edward had Luke investigate what Leo had said before. He didn't want to disturb Daisy, so he decided to keep it a secret from her until he found out the truth. It would only take a simple DNA test to find out whether Daisy was Leo's daughter or not. But somehow Leo was convinced that Daisy was not his child, which was the strangest part of the whole thing. It couldn't be as simple as it looked. Edward had to look into it and find something to convince Leo. As Daisy's husband, he felt it was his duty to do so.

"Okay. Let's go home. But you need to eat something first." Daisy said while reaching out her index finger to rub Edward's frown. She didn't like it to see him unhappy; it made her heart ache. Right at this moment, Daisy caught a glimpse of what seemed like a flash light. She instantly turned around and looked in the direction the light came from. But she couldn't see a thing. 'What happened? Did I see it wrong?' Daisy was bewildered. She stared into the dark warily for a while and finally shook her head. This was the army base; why would someone hide here and secretly take pictures?

"What's wrong?" Following her gaze, Edward tried to figure out what she was looking at.

"No...nothing. Probably a trick of the light. Let's go. I'll tell Mark he doesn't have to drive me tonight." Daisy walked to the Hummer and told Mark to leave without her before getting back into Edward's Lamborghini.

Two cars soon drove away. A person emerged from behind the bushes and sneered at the picture on the digital camera. 'Daisy, this is your downfall. Thank you for giving me the evidence to take you down!'

She was so exhausted that she fell asleep. Edward was on the phone later; his voice woke Daisy up. She yawned and asked, "What do you want to eat?" She blinked her eyes and looked out the window, and found that they were almost downtown.

"Sorry to wake you up. What do you want to eat? I'm okay as long as you like it." Edward had lowered his voice while speaking on the phone, but he still woke her up.

"As long as I like it, really? But I've already had dinner. It's almost midnight snack time!" Daisy's face lit up as soon as she heard that Edward would go with her flavor. Noticing the glint of cunning flashing through her eyes, Edward couldn't help shuddering. Did he just fall into his own trap?
