It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 661

"You go, girl!" Edward snickered. He was glad that Michelle believed him. Michelle was too simple after all.

"How come you became the target of those people? They don't seem to be nice people. Did you offend the local gangsters?" Michelle recalled the dangerous situation they were in about a moment ago. Luke would have been seriously injured if she and her sidekicks hadn't appeared in time.

"Yes. It's about business. You have to bow your head under low eaves. This is their territory. We have been put into a very tight spot." Edward frowned. He had been too careless this time and was now led by the nose. The situation was dangerous and crucial. If he and Joseph still couldn't come to an agreement by tomorrow, he would have to seek help from his father as a last resort. Honestly, he was reluctant to ask for help from Jonathan. Bygones were bygones. He had put the past behind and didn't hate him anymore. Edward was a proud man. He just didn't want his father to think that he couldn't even handle such a trifle.

"You should be more careful. If there is anything that I can do for you, do let me know. I came here only for fun, but my father's friend is a powerful man here. Perhaps he can help you," Michelle said as she patted her chest like a man.

"No, thanks." Edward didn't want to owe anybody anything. If he had to ever ask for help from someone, it would rather be from his own father than from anyone else. After all, blood is thicker than water. Edward didn't want to be burdened. If he took help from his father, he wouldn't feel like he owed him. Certainly, his father wouldn't ask for anything in return.

"Okay. I should go. Look out for yourselves." Michelle checked the time. It was late. She wanted to trash Luke more, but it would be inappropriate for her to stay any longer. She knew the protocol.

"See you back in the city. Remember what I told you," Edward reminded her, resuming his trick.

"I will. Bye." Michelle was scatter-minded. By the time she briskly ran out of the room, the anger she felt at Luke was already gone.

Edward walked up to the window, thought for a while, and then called his father. He had made a promise to Daisy that he would go home safe and he would do anything to keep his promise. A wise man knew when to advance and when to retreat. This was the time to eat the humble pie for the woman he loved. He no longer cared about his self esteem and dignity. He knew if he didn't think about them, making a choice would be easier.

"Edward, aren't you on business in B Country? Everything okay?" Edward had never called his father before. When Jonathan got his call in the middle of the night, he had mixed feelings. He sensed something was wrong.

"I'm sorry to wake you up like this. But I need your help. It's urgent." To make it to the performance of new weapons at the army base, Edward had to fix the problem with the KG company by morning. So he had to call Jonathan immediately.

"Shoot. What do you want me to do?" Jonathan looked at Cynthia who was in a deep sleep beside him. In order not to disturb her, he got out of bed and lightly walked toward the balcony.
