It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 584

"External factors are beyond my control. It was my own fault that I didn't take care of myself. But do you really care for me?" Daisy raised her head and looked at Edward with a questionable expression of satire. There was overt provocation in her eyes.

"Damn it. Is it really necessary for you to speak to me in such a hateful manner? Daisy, do you know how badly I wish to care less about you? I even tried to ignore you as much as I could. But Daisy, I love you so much that I have no choice but to love you with all my heart."

Suddenly, Edward took Daisy into his arms with all his tenderness. Yes! He was always the loser when it came to Daisy. He surrendered himself at the pitiful sight of Daisy's helplessness, pain and suffering. His arrogance was gone. The only things he felt now were his reproach toward himself and the anguish when seeing Daisy like this.

The warm embrace as well as the familiar scent in the embrace was comforting for Edward. However, it seemed strange to Daisy. The love was still there, but there was a stronger sense of frustration that overwhelmed Daisy. A realization dawned upon her. She understood that Edward was a man who was not to be tamed or perhaps, she was incapable of taming him. She underestimated his arrogance and spoilt temperament. He was no more than just a young master brought up in a wealthy family. She must have overestimated the love Edward had for her. She was depressed and gloomy. It was as if, she never really won Edward's heart. Did she even know the real side of Edward? All Daisy felt now was confusion and helplessness.

"Opportunities are always there as long as there is determination to grab them. But there is a vast gap between us, a gap that is almost equivalent to the distance between the sky and the earth. No matter how hard I try, your elevation is always going to be beyond my reach." Daisy put forth her innermost feeling of frustration for the first time since their marriage to Edward. She manifested her fragility and humbleness without sugar coating or anything. For the first time in her life, Daisy felt a surging impulsion to drive herself away from Edward's embrace. She wanted to go as far as possible. She was now afraid that there might come a day, she would get tired of this game of pursuing this unachievable thing.

"No, Daisy. You don't have to do anything to narrow down the gap between us. I'll do it all myself. I will try my best to lower my elevation to sync with yours. I want to stand with you shoulder to shoulder. So, please stop having those vague assumptions. I said that rubbish because I was angry. I lost control of myself only because I was afraid of losing you. I cannot control myself on that. Sadly, this anger and frustration might come back every time I feel that I am losing you. I'm sorry, Daisy. I got mad at you. I apologize. As a man, I should learn to control my temper."
