It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 723

"Don't cry over spilled milk. That's exactly the case. It's too late to take back your words now." Edward raised his eyebrows at the sullen look on Justin's face. Justin wanted to rile Edward up, but he was too young and naive. Since Edward was the father, it was impossible for him to lose to his son.

"Ha! Dad, I know you won't disappoint me, will you?" Justin repeatedly shook his dad's arm, despite the fact that Edward was in the middle of eating his breakfast.

"What makes you think so?" Edward stuck out his tongue to lick the rice on his lips. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Justin with a derisive smile.

"I don't care about anything else. I only know that if you don't go with me, I will lose to someone!" Justin pouted. Thinking of the new boy in his class, his face swelled with anger. Not only was the newcomer cocky, but he also constantly made trouble for Justin. If he wasn't worried about his mother punishing him and making him join the drill, he would have taught the boy a good lesson earlier. Then the newcomer wouldn't have had the chance to be so overbearing in front of Justin.

"Alright, spit it out. What did you do this time?" Edward put down his chopsticks and took out a napkin to wipe his mouth before standing up.

"I didn't do anything! It's just been a long time since the last time you took me to school." Justin bit his lip. He didn't want to admit that the reason he was insisting that his father bring him to school was because he was sick of the cocky boy boasting how handsome his dad was. Justin didn't want to lose to him in this regard.

"Is it really just that? Why does it seem like you're not telling the truth?" Edward grabbed his suit and briefcase from the sofa and gave Justin an incredulous look.

"Yes, that's the only reason why I want you to go with me. You are thinking too much." Justin took his backpack and rushed to keep up with Edward, his face beaming with excitement. He knew his father would give in.

As soon as they walked to the garden of their house, Edward was shocked by the sight that greeted him. He had wondered why everyone suddenly disappeared from the house. It turned out that they all gathered in the garden. Even his parents were present.

"What are you doing here?" Edward frowned. When he saw the uprooted plants lying on the ground, he felt his stomach turn.

"Mr. Mu, your mom said she was bored and wanted to plant some vegetables in this plot. In this case, we don't have to buy inorganic vegetables from the market anymore. We can grow organic vegetables at home." Mrs. Wu wiped the mud off her hands, and looked at Edward with concern. She knew that the jasmine flowers in the garden were Edward's favorites.

"That's nonsense. Can't you just plant the vegetables somewhere else?" Edward glared at the spot with burning eyes. Why did they have to uproot his favorite flowers? Besides, this was a garden and not a vegetable plot.

"Your mom said that since the jasmine flowers flourished the most in the garden, the soil here must be the most fertile. If we grow vegetables here, they would turn out very good." Mrs. Wu hesitantly relayed Cynthia's reasoning to Edward, prepared for Edward to lose his temper on her.

"That's ridiculous. Replant them and put the garden back to how it was before." Looking at the uprooted jasmines spread all over the place, Edward was filled with the urge to kill someone. His mother said that the soil here was the most fertile? Of course it was, he had asked the gardener to cultivate the land especially for the growth of the jasmine flowers.

"Um..." Mrs. Wu glanced at the loving couple not far away and back at Edward who was currently in a fit of rage. Caught in the middle, she was at a loss for what to do. She had tried to persuade Cynthia away from the idea right from the beginning, but she didn't listen. Now, Edward was telling her to replant them, which would go against Cynthia's instructions.

At this time, Cynthia finally saw Edward and walked towards him with a gentle smile. "Who made you so angry this early in the morning?"

"You're definitely my good mother." Edward ground his teeth as he restrained his anger from exploding. Who was she fooling? She already knew the answer. No one else would dare anger him except for her.
