It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 674

"How about waiting until tonight? We can get in bed and you can clearly see if I am okay or not. What do you say, honey?" Edward whispered in Daisy's ear. Daisy blushed and got red instantly. She looked up at Edward and gave him a hard stare. To her surprise, Edward didn't seem to be bothered at all. He kept that flirty smile on his handsome face and looked back at Daisy daringly. Daisy was amazed by the way her husband didn't feel ashamed at all after implying intimacy even when people were around them. Though other people might not have heard them because they were speaking in very low voices, Daisy still felt really embarrassed. She felt as if she had done something really bad.

"Daddy, what did you just say to mommy? Her face looks so red!" asked Justin curiously. Back when he and his mother stayed at the army base, there were only two of them who ate together. Sometimes Kevin and Mark would join them, but it was never like this. Today, having dinner at a big table with all his family members around was indeed very new and exciting for him. He felt immensely happy and cherished every minute of it.

"Do you really want to know what I said to your mommy?" asked Edward, grinning wickedly at Justin. His message of 'Keep Off or Else' was so evident that Justin instantly realized that he should stop probing any further.

"No, no. I think I'll pass," replied Justin hurriedly. The look on his father's face made it clear that he didn't want him to make a topic out of his little talk with his mother. Even though Justin was a little curious, he wouldn't dare to mess up with his father. As a famous expression warned, curiosity killed the cat. He thought he might as well behave himself for the moment.

'Astute observation and quick response. That's my boy!' mused Edward to himself. He was glad to see that his good genes were playing their roles well in his son. It was quite amazing to see that such a little boy was so good at reading other people's expressions and adjusting his reaction swiftly. He even had a feeling of being surpassed by Justin some day somehow.

Though he didn't speak a single word during the meal, Jonathan enjoyed the dinner just as much as others did. He tried not to get too emotional but rather just experience everything and enjoy every bit of it. He realized that he actually had missed out a lot on the family reunions and other similar things in the past. This very well explained the void in his heart each time he reflected on his family life.
