It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 543

Luke remained silent. He seldom talked at the table. As he had been an orphan since he was young, Luke suffered coldness and hunger. It was a very fortunate thing that someone would extend a helping hand and offer him some warm food. He couldn't ask for more. Therefore, any food prepared by Cynthia he would finish it with a grateful heart. Although the food did not agree with his stomach and usually caused him loose bowels for some time afterwards, he never complained. For him, the food carefully prepared by Cynthia was a rare treat in the world and was simply precious. Right now, he heard them teasing each other but didn't say anything. He just looked at them with a gentle smile, enjoyed the good ambience at the table, and appreciated the love and warmth he had felt.

Daisy gently gazed at her precious family. Each one of them meant so much to her. The look on her face said it all: at this very moment, the cold female colonel was grateful for everything she had in her life: the caring family, an adorable son and a perfect husband. Daisy was intoxicated with her own thoughts. She felt so blessed.

The night was long, and the moon had generously shed its light all around. A beautiful woman bathed herself in the moonlight. Her fragrance seemed so close and yet her look seemed distant. Her lips were like the finest rare ruby and her hair was like the most expensive ebony satin. Her beauty easily took Edward's breath away. His breath caught in his throat. He fondly gazed at her as he was powerless against the burning desire within him.

"How's it going?" He quietly approached her and laid his eyes on her beautiful neck. He wickedly curled his lips as he secretly sniffed her fragrance, the unique flowery smell from her shampoo.

"Fine! You done with the chess game?" Daisy raised her head and looked at him curiously. After dinner, Jonathan proposed that he would like to play chess with his son. This indeed surprised everyone as usually he would go straight to Cynthia and hang out with her alone. Everyone knew how important the sweet time he spent with his beloved wife meant to him. Now he actually suggested spending his leisure time with his son instead of his wife, no wonder everyone was shocked. Jonathan's action caught everyone off guard and they started to wonder whether he was still alright. How strange!

"It's okay! The game was fun despite the fact that he constantly whined about every move. I won't play chess with him anymore. He acted like a child. What a sore loser!" Edward scornfully curled his lips. He was not very pleased at his father's attitude at the game. From what he could remember, his father was always solemn and serious. How come when they were playing chess, he acted like a whiny brat and gave him a headache?

"Sometimes the old behave like babies! As a devoted son, you should just accept their foibles and be more patient! He might still look young on the outside, however he's still old. The funny thing is, he sometimes acts like a child at heart. That's why we have a term for people like him, man-child. I am sure this is quite common with old people nowadays." Daisy smiled generously at him as she extended her hand and squeezed his pouting mouth gently. He was the one being childish here! Anyway, as long as the two got along well with each other, she felt greatly relieved.

"I behaved so well today. Where is my due reward?" Edward quickly caught her fingers and gazed into her eyes. His look was intense and his desire was obvious. Pale blush on the face, she could feel his strong love from the bottom of her heart.
