It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 457

"How is she? The wound on her hand has scarred, hasn't it?" Edward asked Tom with a smile, looking agreeable but more creepy in Tom's eyes. Tom was so scared to step into this. It might be a trap.

"Um! Yes, it has. I'm sure her wound will be healed faster if you put away your soft and enchanting smile." Tom replied, raising his eyebrow to Daisy as a signal to ask what was going on here. Tom felt like he was falling into a trap.

But Daisy couldn't figure out what he was getting at. With a confused face, she just replied Tom with a shrug and a helpless expression.

"Oh! You do look guilty! So do you want to give me a good explanation now?" Edward asked, wiped the smile off his face and turned to Tom, with his deep and sharp eyes staring at him.

"I can make it up to you right now! Okay?" 'Oh my god!' Tom thought to himself, 'Daisy, you were so ruthless to have told Edward the truth already. I knew it was unintentional, but you are pushing me hard towards Edward. The man's a devil!'

"So tell me," Edward said, lifting the corners of his mouth and a smile playing across his lips. It was so dazzling that Tom couldn't help blinking his eyes, but he had no idea what that smile meant.

"No, I can't," Tom replied listlessly, without any enthusiasm. He knew that his plan of having Edward pay the exorbitant price for the suite fell through right when he spoke those words. Instead of gaining huge profits, he even paid him his expensive labor. Think about it: If you were him, would you cheer up? "There's many a slip twixt cup and lip." Like the proverb said, everything was going wrong.

"Well…… I think you know what to do now," Edward said with a faint smile on his face and thought, 'Very well. He is smart enough to realize his mistake so soon. It's worth it for me to act so harsh in front of him. He really underestimated me if he wanted to extort money from me!' Anyone should feel lucky if Edward didn't plan to set him or her up. Now someone tried to set up him. It was obvious that he was asking for trouble.
