It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 357

"I love choosing clothes for you. You know what? That's probably one of the happiest things in my life. Even if you never get the chance to wear them, I'll still buy them for you! Who knows? You might need them one day. I mean you look proud in your uniform, but look at you! How could you waste such a nice body? You know how men are like. They'll get bored if you don't doll yourself up and change your style every now and then. You catch Edward's eyes, you keep his heart."

Deep down, Cynthia knew her son wasn't that kind of man she was describing. Once Edward fell in love with someone, he would love and cherish her forever. But this was how the world worked. There were lots of women out there drooling over Edward. Although Edward showed no interest in them, it didn't mean they wouldn't do anything to seduce him or sabotage his relationship with Daisy. Cynthia figured she'd better warn Daisy beforehand about it.

"Okay. I see. Thanks, mom. Let me get out of this dress first. I'll be quick." Daisy obediently answered with a nod. She knew Cynthia was trying to be nice, and she took her words seriously. It wasn't like that she had no faith in herself or Edward's feelings for her. The problem was that Edward was too amazing, and there were all kinds of women trying to lure him. There was a chance someday Edward would find Daisy boring and he needed some new excitement. Daisy knew love couldn't be maintained by just exchanging 'I love you'. She was a woman, and women knew these secrets by nature.

"Okay, take your time. We can find a cafe and have a rest after you're done. And then we can go to another shopping mall." Daisy, who was on her way to the changing room, almost slipped and fell to the floor out of shock when she heard what Cynthia had said. 'What? Another shopping mall? Seriously?' Daisy didn't know what to say. They had been shopping here, at this mall, for nearly two hours. And they had bought more things than they could carry. If Cynthia intended to go to another few malls and buy more clothes for her for the rest of the day, Daisy might need a new walk-in closet to fit her things in.

"Watch out, my dear child!" Upon seeing Daisy stagger, Cynthia cried out worriedly. Her words surprised every one inside the boutique, including the shopping assistant. They all curiously gazed at Cynthia and Daisy all of a sudden. If they heard her right, Cynthia just said 'child'? They all thought Cynthia and Daisy were sisters! So did that mean they were mother and daughter? This was so unbelievable!

Daisy blushed. She tripped over because of what her mother-in-law had just said. But did she really have to cry out loud like that? Now everyone was looking at them. Daisy felt a little embarrassed.

One of the shopping assistants couldn't hold back her curiosity, so she approached Cynthia and discreetly asked, "Ma'am, is she your daughter? She is so gorgeous, and she has a nice body." She hesitated for a short while to consider how she should address the woman who seemed to be 'the mom', and she thought it couldn't go wrong to politely start with 'ma'am'. They all heard her call the other woman in the changing room 'my child'. Were they really mother and daughter?

"No, she's my daughter-in-law. But she's practically my daughter. She's beautiful, isn't she?" Cynthia beamed with pride when someone else complimented Daisy. She lavished her love and affection on the girl. Daisy was beautiful and gentle and elegant, there was nothing to complain about! She felt so lucky that Daisy had grown into such a wonderful woman, and she also felt delighted and relieved thinking about the promise she made to Daisy's mother years ago.
