It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 685

"I know that, and you know that, too. It's my duty." Daisy explained to Belinda, with her cherry lips held in a tight, steady smile. She knew Belinda would be angry with her for saving Mary from the gangsters. But she couldn't help it. She just couldn't stand by and watch someone get hurt. She was a colonel, and she worked for everyone. She couldn't forgive herself if anyone was in danger and she refused to save him or her. That worked on Mary, too, even though Daisy hated her.

"That's bullshit! She's a bitch. She even went to the trouble of framing you and setting you up. We were all witnesses. Nobody would blame you if you didn't help her." Belinda rolled her eyes and sulked. Daisy was too kind-hearted so she was always bullied by bad guys. If she were Daisy, she would have walked away and left Mary to her fate. Belinda was not tenderhearted like Daisy.

"Oh! Have some water, Belinda. You're way too excited." Leena affably offered Belinda some water. Anger was a fire, and it should be put out lest someone got burned. Belinda should calm down and get a grip on herself.

Edward kept a close eye on the women while they were talking but he said nothing. He ordered the meal and then handed the menu to the waitress. He waved his hand to dismiss her. He pretended not to notice Daisy's awkwardness and refused to help her out. He was beyond anger when he learned that she risked her life to save that bitch Mary. Did she even know what she was doing? What if she had been killed? He loved her so much and was unwilling to blame her even when she did something wrong. He was glad Belinda was trying to talk sense into her friend.

"Hey! What's wrong with Belinda? Did you mess things up with her?" Rain said to Duke, raising his eyebrows with an evil smile on his face. He was interested in why Duke wasn't really getting along with Belinda, and it was a burning urge to know the reason why. Yeah, Rain was really fond of gossip.

"Watch it, Rain! I don't want to talk about it." Duke mouthed the word "Rachel" to Rain while drawing his finger across his throat and Rain understood. It's Rachel, and don't talk about her. Duke smiled bitterly. Belinda was still mad at him when he picked her up just now. She wouldn't have come if Daisy weren't here. He was aware of a brutal fact -- Daisy was much more important to her than he was. That really made him feel frustrated, like a failure.

"What, are you having an affair with Rachel?" Rain whispered in Duke's ear. He was stunned and staring at Duke with wide open eyes. It seemed to him that Duke was a playboy! He had no idea why Duke was so weak-willed when it came to Rachel. Did Duke still love Rachel when he had Belinda? What a playboy!

"Fuck you. It's not like that! I know who I love and what I should do. I'm not going to flirt with trouble. I'm too busy for that, and Rachel was in another life. I'm done with her." Rachel was nothing but an evil schemer. He didn't see her for what she really was before, but he saw clearly now. He wouldn't be fooled by her again.

"Good for you. Don't betray Belinda's love. That's not you." Rain got what Duke meant. Rachel was in the past and he didn't love her now. He had found the right girl, Belinda.

"What are you talking about? I have no clue. What is about Rachel? Didn't Duke break up with her a long time ago? Why are you talking about her now?" Tom asked, confused. He just came back from overseas and knew little about the latest news about Rachel and Duke.

"Ignorance is a rare blessing, Tom. Chicks don't like you if you're too intellectual. Trust me, buddy," Rain said, patting Tom on the shoulder. He wanted to explain everything to Tom, but Belinda was here. He couldn't talk too much about Duke's ex-girlfriend, so he chose to make fun of Tom.
