It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 53

"No, I'm afraid I have to let you down again."

'She is so bad-tempered.' thought Daisy.

"Come on! You think I'd provoke the youngest woman colonel in the city? I actually value my life." Belinda Shangguan said and smiled, arranging the files with her right hand.

"Haha, So there is something you won't do." she said, laughing. "I thought you were invincible." Daisy Ouyang seized this opportunity to tease her.

"Ok, now I know you are quick-witted! I have something to do, let's talk tomorrow." Belinda Shangguan raised her head and glanced at her secretary coming into the room.

"Ok, See you tomorrow." Daisy hung up the phone. She lay on the bed silently, as beautiful as an Egyptian statue.

Edward opened the door and saw her lying on the bed. He walked over to her, and found that she slept soundly. 'Why is she still asleep? It's late afternoon.' Edward thought.

Edward moved the strands of hair on her face away from her eyes, smiling at her. She stirred sleepily, and he felt peaceful, staring at her beauty.

He kissed her gently on the cheek and prepared to take a bath. He usually did this when arriving home.

Daisy opened her eyes. She'd been awake the whole time, but pretended to sleep. She didn't know how to get along with him, and he wouldn't interrupt her slumber to talk with her.

She heard the hiss of the shower, and started to tense up. She'd agreed not to refuse his touch, but she was still afraid.

She sat up suddenly, her mind full of thoughts.

"Penny for your thoughts." Daisy jumped, her thoughts fled. She turned around and saw him, bare chested in all his glory. Her face went red with embarrassment.

Edward smiled. 'How cute. She's shy!' Edward thought to himself.

"Can you get dressed first?" Her voice was cracked, dry. He walked towards her, towel wrapped around his waist. Her heart started thumping in her chest. She had seen her share of bare-chested men in the army, but she was suddenly nervous. Her palms were drenched in sweat. When it came to Edward, she was a mess.

"What's wrong? Are you shy?" Edward smiled evilly and walked closer. He was tempting her.

"I'm not used to it." Daisy whispered with her head low. She didn't dare to look him in the eye.

"But you agreed that we'd be close, right?" Edward's low and salacious voice sounded in her ear. She could even feel his breath on her face.

"I know. But can you give me some time?" Her ears burned red. She tried to avoid his breath.
