It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 494

"Shit! Jerry, what the hell is this? You look all upset like someone's been up your butt!"

This was exactly like Rain, always restless. Before one thing ended, he was already ready to stir up some new trouble. He was indeed a troublemaker!

"Up my butt? Wish fulfillment? You look so much like a permanent bottom that it gives me chills." Raising his eyebrows, Tom looked at Rain in disgust.

"Damn, Jerry. Are you jealous that I look better than you? Is that why you're trying to ruin my reputation?" Rain was simply pulling Tom's leg, because he realized the boss already turned his fatal gaze to Daisy. So Rain had to get himself out of this mess, and the most effective way was to try to change the topic. Otherwise he'd meet a terrible fate.

"Narcissist. You're not good-looking, just girly." Aaron looked very much lost in thought and bored as he teased him. Although he didn't really consider Rain effeminate, but Rain did have an enchanting charm that was even more seductive than a woman's. Aaron felt justified in calling Rain girly. Besides, Rain had put a lot of work onto Aaron's shoulders these past few days. So Aaron wanted to get back at him to let out of some of that bottled up anger.

"Aaron baby, are you sure you want to be a part of this?" Instead of getting fired up, Rain laughed. Since Aaron threw a barb at him, Rain decided to give him a nice whirl.

"Forget it. I was just venting, so please ignore me. You guys continue, and I'll just watch. And stop calling me baby. It makes my skin crawl." Aaron had no intention in being caught in their meaningless "fight." At this crucial point, he only wanted to protect his own skin. Although Rain couldn't really affect his daily life, it would be a different story at his job, since his position was one level lower than Rain's.

"Coward, I'd accept his challenge." Anna looked contemptuous. Rain had given her quite a hard time when her actual boss was in hospital. She was exhausted by the overtimes, so she had a lot against Rain. Edward was extremely efficient whereas Rain always drove her like a slave. How could such different people hold the reins of power here?

"Anna, if that's the case, then you go, girl! I'm out of this." Aaron would be insane to cross the newly ascendant and insidious acting president. Or by tomorrow, the unbearable workload would crush him, and even breathing would be a luxury.

"A lady won't fight a man. I'm not interested in this childish scuffle between you men." Anna smiled coldly. Every man seated here ranked higher in the company than she was, so targeting any one of them would end up badly for her. Why would she recklessly cause herself trouble?

"A gentleman doesn't fight a woman is the expression. Please, Anna, don't take liberties with ancient proverbs." The argument seemed to shift from between Aaron and Rain to between Aaron and Anna. What an intriguing sight!

"They mean basically the same thing, don't they? What's there to argue about?" Anna frowned and peeked at him from the corner of her eye, unable to figure out what was wrong with men nowadays. They always seemed to be fixated on some irrelevant thing, causing grief for everyone.

"Uncle Aaron, are you secretly dating aunt Anna? You two look suspicious!" Nobody knew when exactly Justin stopped whatever he was doing. He was now carefully examining the quarreling couple.

"Um. Justin, don't say such things. I could be dating anyone but him." Anna rudely curled her lips as if Aaron was the worst man in the world.

"The same applies to me. So, little guy, don't start matchmaking around here! If I ever am interested in anyone, she sure wouldn't be some spinster." Aaron counterattacked with equal ruthlessness, pulling no punches simply because he was up against a woman.
