It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 427

"Tom, Luke, eat something. Go to sleep after you finish your meal. We'll stay here to keep an eye on Edward." Although Cynthia knew that Tom was the best person to take care of her son, still she couldn't bear to see him so exhausted. She felt he would be able to help Edward better once he had well rested.

"Mom, I am fine. It's Tom who needs to sleep after the several-hour-long surgery." Jonathan had once threatened Luke that he would fire him if he didn't change his way to address Cynthia and him, so Luke did as Jonathan had asked.

"You both go. You can't stay here. We have to take care of Edward in turns. If we don't rest, we won't have the energy. I know I can't persuade Daisy to rest, as she doesn't want to leave Edward at all. She is asleep now. Don't wake her up. She needs a good rest. She won't sleep again if she wakes up." Cynthia looked feeble, but she managed things efficiently.

Jonathan kept silent. He looked at the drawn curtain. With a frown on his face, he was lost in deep thoughts. He was sure Edward was rescued again. Why else would the curtain be suddenly drawn, and why would Tom ask Daisy to go in to speak with Edward? However, he didn't ask about it lest Cynthia might be worried. He hoped Edward was out of danger now.

"Okay. I will take a rest in my office. Let me know if something unexpected happens." Tom realized that as a doctor, he had to be clearheaded, so he accepted Cynthia's offer. After having some food from the food box in Mrs. Wu's hand, he headed for his office.

"Mom, I have to do some work. I have to leave now. I don't have time to eat." Paul Du was still hung over the crocodile pool. Luke wondered whether Paul had admitted his guilt after two days and one night. It was quite possible that Paul had passed out due to fear.

"Okay. Go. Be careful." After Edward was hurt, Cynthia became more cautious, so she urged Luke to be careful.

"Okay. I'll be right back." Luke grinned as he saw Jonathan stare at the ICU. It was obvious that Jonathan was concerned about Edward. Otherwise, he wouldn't fix his gaze on the ICU. He used to fix his eyes on Cynthia only, but he acted differently now.

"Take your time. We will take good care of Edward. Go ahead with your business." Luke never looked out for himself. Instead, he was always attentive to Edward's needs and wellbeing. Cynthia regretted this. She felt she shouldn't have imposed such a heavy burden on him.

The corridor grew quiet after Luke left. Cynthia was worried as she couldn't see what was going on in the ICU. She had a worried expression on her face.

"Don't worry. He'll continue to fight me. He won't die. Do you think your son is a coward?" Jonathan pulled Cynthia into his arms. His stiff expression turned mild in front of Cynthia.

"Honey, please be nice to him. You are his dad, not enemy." Cynthia pleaded. Several decades had passed, but Jonathan was still as handsome as before. Cynthia couldn't understand why Jonathan and Edward didn't make peace. Their hostile relation annoyed her.

"Are you criticizing me for Edward?" Jonathan frowned and squinted at Cynthia. He knew that if he tried to be nice to Edward, Cynthia would be insatiable, and she would focus on Edward only. He couldn't bear to be ignored by Cynthia.

"No, I treat both of you equally. I love you both, so I won't prefer either one of you over the other. I can't bear to see you hurting each other." Cynthia told Jonathan what she thought while looking him in the eye determinedly.

"I know. I'm sorry I made such a scene." Jonathan closed his eyes sadly. He shouldn't have made a fuss about this matter again.

"Honey, thank you for sincerely accepting Edward. We owe this to him. He didn't get to enjoy parental love throughout his childhood."

Cynthia sneered at herself. She was the one to be blamed for all this. Jonathan didn't like Edward because he thought Edward was a burden. Cynthia was filled with regret for being unable to handle this matter appropriately.

"As I said, he is also my son." Both Daisy and Cynthia had thanked Jonathan for Edward. Jonathan didn't like accepting their gratitude. It made him feel like they belonged to the same family, while he was an outsider.

Mrs. Wu wiped away her tears. Jonathan finally admitted Edward was his son. He had never cared for Edward over the years. Those who didn't know them well assumed Edward wasn't his son. What a happy ending. However, Edward wasn't out of danger yet.

"Mrs. Wu, you can go back. Daisy doesn't have time to eat breakfast. Why don't you make something nice for her?" Cynthia thought of Mrs. Wu and turned to her.

"Okay. No problem. I'll prepare her favorite dishes." Mrs. Wu's tears turned into smiles. She liked Daisy's warmth and tenderness. Although Daisy looked cold, she didn't put on airs or make things difficult for the servants.
