It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 768

As a woman, whether you were successful or not didn't depend on your status or your methods of achieving goals, but whether there was a man who loved you to death, who would do anything for you without hesitation and consistently show his love for you.

"Now you're being mean! You did it intentionally!" Daisy puckered her lips, and plaintively rolled her eyes at him. Edward really liked this side of her, it seemed that she had let all her guard down in front of him, and she was content to be the little woman she was in his eyes.

"Can you blame me? You are so easy and so fun to tease. I just can't help myself! Well, you are a colonel, you should easily see through my tricks. But instead, you fall for it every time. My silly girl." Her hand was in his, their fingers intertwined. He lightly caressed the skin of her finger with the pad of his thumb. Suddenly, he couldn't help but wonder, if he had not met this woman beside him in this life, would he have fallen for another woman like he did now?

Time passed slowly in silence. When the lights in the operating room were finally out, it was already an hour later. But fortunately, Daisy was with Edward, someone she deeply loved, so the long wait was more bearable than she expected.

"Tom! You're finally done! How did it go?" Daisy asked, once she saw Tom emerge from the OR. She sounded excited, and slightly agitated.

"The operation was quite successful. But now, he's on his own now. It all depends on whether he can recover or not. We need to give him time to heal." Tom felt pretty tired after the operation. During the entire surgery he found out that Hero's condition was not as good as he had expected. Fortunately, he had prepared for the worst, so all in all, this operation was quite successful.

"Thank you so much, Tom. Every time we run into some problems, you are always here to help us. I'm really thankful. I don't know how I can even repay you." Daisy truly admired and respected Tom. She was very impressed with Tom's magical hands, which could treat every patient with kindness and save their lives on a daily basis. And not to mention that Tom was willing to help them whenever they needed it. She knew that it wasn't just because Edward was his boss, but Tom himself was kind and willing to help anyone who was in need.

"Daisy, don't ever say that! That's what I should do. Besides, if you continue thanking me so effusively, somebody will start getting jealous, you know." Tom turned his head to Edward, and eyed him carefully. As he expected, his boss was looking at him knowingly, with a playful smirk at the corner of his mouth.

"Ummm... What do you mean?" Daisy just looked at him with confused eyes. She was just saying that she was quite grateful for him. Why would someone be mad about it? And who was he referring to?

"Honey, don't mind him. You know he is so weird sometimes. I guess that geniuses are quite different from us ordinary people. That's all." Edward smiled a wicked smile. It seemed that Tom knew his boss's temper very well. Or he surely would pay for his words just now.

The corner of Tom's mouth twitched. Who was the one being weird right now? But unfortunately, he didn't dare to say it out loud in front of his boss. So he just agreed. "Well, yes! Daisy, you know me! I just have to act weird from time to time. It's who I am. So don't mind me."

What could he possibly say? Edward was his boss, and also dominating as fuck. Well, it seemed that the only thing he could do was shut up now. He was in fact not weird at all, but in front of his boss, he couldn't say anything about it. So he just agreed with everything Edward said and got it over with. Oh, he was such a coward sometimes. But it was better than a black eye and stolen meds. What could he do? He was not the boss after all.
