It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 757

Rain gave him a cunning smile. He didn't expect that Duke would get pissed off so easily. Apparently, Duke was not as indifferent as they said. 'Is he in a bad mood today? Why is he so irritable? Never mind. I'd better go upstairs first, ' Rain thought to himself.

"Come in, please." Edward was still buried in his papers when he heard the knock on his door. Undoubtedly, he looked handsome in the moment.

"Mr. Mu, here's your schedule for this afternoon. Please take a look. Do you want me to make any changes?" Anna asked as she handed her notebook to Edward. She wore a tight, well-cut suit that showed off her figure.

"Mr. Ouyang? What does he want to see me for?" Edward asked, taking a sip of his coffee as he saw an upcoming appointment with Leo mentioned in Anna's notebook.

"He said he wanted to talk about private matters with you. I told him I would ask you first, Mr. Mu. Do you want me to tell him you're busy?" Anna stole a glance at Edward, unsure about his answer. Leo was Edward's father-in-law, after all.

"No, tell him I'll see him. The schedule is fine by me." Edward shut the notebook, giving it back to Anna. He wondered what Leo was planning to say. Daisy had broken off with him and had asked Edward to ignore him too. However, Edward was unable to treat the father of his beloved wife with indifference.

"Sure! If you don't need me for anything else, sir, I'll take my leave," Anna said respectfully as she gazed at Edward. He was handsome and competent. Anna admired him very much, but she was a wise woman who didn't think unrealistically.

"Wait, C Financial Group faxed me a document. Fetch it for me." Rain should've been the person handling the case of C Financial Group, but he was reluctant to meet anyone from the firm because of Annie. So Edward had to take over the case.

"Of course, Mr. Mu." Anna turned around to walk toward the door. She reached out her hand to turn the knob, but the door bumped open from the outside. Luckily, she dodged the door in time to avoid getting hit.

"Hello! Anna, you look more and more beautiful each day." Rain was flirtatious with a lot of pretty ladies. For him, everything was just a game. That was his attitude toward life.

"Thank you, Mr. Xia." Anna smiled. She was accustomed to Rain's compliments and accepted them gracefully.

"No problem! I spare no efforts in praising beautiful women." Rain flashed her a brilliant smile. From his demeanor, nobody could tell he nursed a broken heart.

"How did it go?" Edward asked Rain, watching him tease Anna.

"You can be sure, that when a veteran goes into action, he can do the job of two." Rain tossed the document at him with a smug look. It fell on the table in front of Edward.

"Great! The construction will begin next week. We must ensure quality is maintained. If anything goes wrong, Daisy will be implicated." Edward perused the document and smiled satisfactorily.

"Don't worry. I know what you're fearing. Look at the previous projects; no one dared to cheat or cut down on materials. They don't brew plots when it comes to you," Rain stated with a smile. No one would dare to conspire when a military project was involved. It was a serious crime and the doer could be put to death.
