It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 319

"Are you feeling better? I'll take you outside for a walk. It's good for your recovery," Edward said to Daisy. Shuttling back and forth between home and the military base every day, Daisy hardly had time for herself. Edward wanted her to take some time off to get a good rest.

"Outside? Isn't Justin coming over?" Daisy raised her head and looked at Edward with a hint of excitement on her face. She seldom had the chance to stroll about the streets and shop with him. Despite the military uniform, she was just an ordinary woman who looked forward to going out hand in hand with the man she loved.

"We can have the chauffeur drive him to the city center. Then I'll show you and Justin around the city. What do you think?" Edward felt guilty about leaving Daisy and Justin all alone in the past. He had missed years of taking care of Justin and fulfilling his responsibility as a father. His deep feeling of guilt had become mental shackles that he couldn't escape.

"But don't you have to go to the office today?" Daisy kept asking him about this today. Although she loved having him around, she didn't want him to put work aside for her. It wasn't her intention.

"Humph, me? I don't need your support. Actually, I don't have to count on any man," Daisy replied. She twisted her mouth scornfully at Edward's remark. When it came to arrogance, she had always been the best. She wouldn't let Edward get the upper hand.

"Good. Then if the FX International Group went out of business, could I count on you?" Edward burst into laughter and shook his head. Daisy was like a hedgehog covered with sharp spikes. Once being pushed, she would fight back immediately. No matter who her opponent was, she needed to be the toughest one. It was her means of self-preservation, it was all she had.

"No, I wouldn't support you. If that happens one day, it would prove that you are a wastrel. I'd kick you out right away. If you can make such a big company go bankrupt, then anything's possible. You might also make me lose my home one day. I don't want to become homeless and end up on the streets, "
