It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 377

"No, we just arrived. Let's find a seat together. By the way, who's this handsome guy? Won't you introduce us?" Belinda winked to Daisy as she saw the other man coming with Edward and her. If she was right, the man with Daisy was the same young man she had met yesterday, who stared at Daisy the whole night. How come they were all together? And how come Edward wasn't jealous?

"Why, you've forgotten me, Belinda? I'm so sad!" Said Brian with a smile as he winked to Belinda merrily. He had also spotted Belinda yesterday night, though he didn't talk to her. Part of the reason was that he was keeping a low profile, and part of the reason was that he had sensed that Daisy was trying to keep him away. He wouldn't enter her social circle without her permission, so he didn't bother her friends accordingly.

"Haha! I remember something. But you can't be the sniveling boy who followed Daisy everywhere like a little puppy dog, can you? You're too handsome to be that brat. However, there's an old saying, 'A boy changes fast in physical appearance from childhood to adulthood.' So, you are an adult now?" Belinda quipped as she looked at Brian from head to toe. She couldn't believe her eyes. How could this handsome young man as bright as sunshine be that weak, little boy from her memories?

To everyone's surprise, Edward was the first to be amused by Belinda's words. He laughed out loud at her joke. He always enjoyed watching her belittling random men other than him. Belinda was a master at witty words. She should be the only person that could humble Brian that effectively. The whole night, he had been so angry with this Brian, but had to put up with him because of Daisy. Right now, since Belinda had mentioned his embarrassing past, Edward was so overjoyed. Finally, someone put down this arrogant boy. He'd like to see how Brian would react.

However, Brian was laid back. "Belinda! How ungrateful of you to say that! I've always remembered you as my pretty sister, but you've totally forgotten about how handsome I was. How mean! How can you treat me like this? I have missed you so much! You should be punished! Let's say, a kiss as compensation." Said Brian, with pretended sadness. He pressed a hand at his chest as he spoke, and put on a sad face. He made a show of disappointment. However, the expression in his eyes was naughty and cunning, and the slyness that occasionally appeared in his eyes had betrayed his disguise, making it look a bit like flirting.

"Cut the bullshit. You've missed me? Then why didn't you come and chat with me the other night, but instead huddled in your corner and played hard to get?" Belinda debunked him mercilessly. She was puzzled by his gaze last night, and studied him from time to time in secret. At the time, she wondered who he was, and why he was looking at her. She even wondered whether she was too beautiful for the young man to move his eyes away. Nervous as she had been, it turned out that the young man was Brian, her old acquaintance.

"Hard to get? No, not me! I wasn't playing hard to get. I was nervous, and didn't want to talk to you first. I was wondering whether you still remembered me, or even recognized me. Besides, I won't bother Daisy's friends...I don't even know if you want to be bothered. But in the end, you ignored me, and I had to chew my sadness alone, thus I left." Brian had a strong and rich facial expressions, and a flair for dramatic acts. He pleaded like a wronged victim. Edward, who knew about the whole event, was impressed. Brian was so good at telling lies, and compared to him Edward's ability was so much cheaper melodrama. With such ability, this Brian would definitely survive and thrive!
