It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 72

Mary quietly listened to Belinda and the others. She felt that they got along well with each other but in a strange way. They were neither lovers nor friends, but she could perceive their unusual chemistry.

Belinda felt perturbed, realizing how rude she had been. However, she felt embarrassed to make an apology, because she didn't know what to say. Belinda intended to defend Daisy, but in doing so, she had offended Edward who was a big shot of the City. She knew Edward would mind.

"Excuse me. I have to leave. Good day everyone." With these words, she left hurriedly. Belinda had the ability to admit and correct her mistakes. Whenever she lost her temper, she would leave the room. She would never invite humiliation her way. Though, she always escaped from Edward in a flurried haste.

Edward didn't mind her leaving abruptly as he was used to it.

Rain concealed his smirk. Edward was the most brute man in the world who had a sharp tongue. Rain was no match for him when it came to debate and discussions, let alone Belinda.

"Let's go back." Edward glanced at the expensive watch on his wrist and stepped out.

After hanging up the phone, Daisy went upstairs to look for Justin, wondering what the little guy was up to. She gently pushed the door, only to find that it was locked.

Daisy knocked on the door and waited for the door to be opened.

"Mummy, what's wrong?" Justin gaped at Daisy, pretending to be sleepy.

"What were you doing? Why was the door locked?" Daisy popped her head inside and examined the room.

"I wasn't doing anything. I was just sleeping." Justin stuttered, giving no definite reply. He couldn't tell his mother that he was making plans with his online friends to bring his parents back together. Could he tell her that? Of course not, otherwise he was in for a significant punishment. It would be terrible.

"Is it necessary to lock the door when you're sleeping?" Obviously, Daisy didn't buy it.

"Why shouldn't I? You also lock the door when you and dad sleep, right? I have a personal life. You can't deprive me of my privacy." Just this morning, he tried to open the door to his dad's room, but it was locked for the first time in days.

"Oh? Would you tell me your secrets?" Daisy's face reddened. She was burning up at the thought of what she did with Edward this morning.

She pinched Justin's face lovingly, wondering when this little guy started to have secrets.

"Ha-ha! Mom, I just need two things from you. First, you can't enter my room without my permission. Second, don't rummage around my room after you enter." Justin scratched his head, thinking if he had missed something.
