It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 606

Edward took his car key and headed out. He wasn't the type of person to sit around and wait. He knew he would only feel reassured after he went out and figured it all by himself.

"Edward, where are you rushing? There's an important document that needs to be concluded!" Rain shouted at Edward's back with a surprised look. He looked at the files in his hands and shook his head since he couldn't stop Edward. He felt pathetic on having to do the extra work over the weekend. What's worse? He was now being ignored by his boss directly.

Never mind, he thought. At least, he'd already known that Annie was safe and she just didn't want to go home for the time being. It was enough for him to know this. They would meet again if they were destined to be together. No! He must rather create his own destiny even if they couldn't meet. Because Annie had been a thorn in his heart, something he couldn't just pull out and throw away.

"Luke, call my dad and ask him if Daisy is with him. I tried to call her and Justin, but couldn't get through." Edward met Luke and asked him to do it for him as he incessantly called Daisy.

"Okay. I'll call him right away," Luke said. On seeing Edward this anxious, he got really nervous but he had no idea about what had happened.

Edward took a deep breath. He wanted to smash his phone in anger but he thought it over and dialed Mark's number.

"Hello, Mr. Mu. Is there anything I can help you with?" It was time for lunch at the army base. Mark pushed his lunch box a little further and asked slightly.

"Mark, is Daisy at the army base?" This was the only place he thought she might go to regardless of her injury. Apart from this, he couldn't come up with a reason of Daisy going out in her condition.

"No, she's not here! What? Isn't she at home?" Mark felt confused on hearing Edward's words. He came back to the army base for the rehearsals. Daisy didn't come with him because of her injury, and Edward already knew about it. 'Why would Mr. Mu think that the Colonel is here?' Mark thought to himself.

"Um! She's not home and her phone is turned off. I thought she might go back to the army base for something important. Never mind. I'll call someone else!" Edward finished and hung up the phone. Now, he was not just worried but rather frightened.

"Mr. Mu, I called your dad. Mrs. Mu isn't with him either. He told me Justin wanted to play games with Mrs. Mu at home, so they went out without them. I suppose Mrs. Mu is with Justin right now. I think you should call your home phone."

Luke said with the phone in his hand, ready to call anybody Edward wanted. He didn't understand why they couldn't be connected all of a sudden. He wondered if they were enjoying their game time too much.

"I've already called. Ms. Wu said they were not at home. You can ask the bodyguards if they saw them going out," Edward said while he was getting on the car. He called Belinda as soon as he sat on the chair.

Luke wasn't hesitant to do anything Edward requested for, because the more he heard, the more serious the entire thing looked to him.

"Hey, Edward. Why are you calling my wife instead of having lunch with yours?" Duke ridiculed Edward impassively from the other side of the phone, the moment the line got connected.
