It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 769

"Something light? Let me think...Ah, I know just the place! Let me take you there." Edward's smile was mysterious. He hadn't been to The Fragrance for a very long time. Today was just the right time to have lunch there!

"Where are we headed?" He sounded so excited, and it made Daisy become quite interested herself. Where was he taking her this time?

"Well, you'll know when we get there." Edward just smiled his secret smile, setting his GPS for the restaurant, offering few details to Daisy.

"Huh. It seems that it must be a special restaurant. Or you wouldn't be this smug right now." Daisy glanced at him and saw the smugness he couldn't bother to hide on his face. Well, for a grown man, he was quite childish sometimes. And she secretly loved this side of him.

"Well, I can only tell you that I'm sure you will be satisfied." Edward was quite confident about this. Because he believed that she wouldn't dislike something he liked. To be honest, he believed that they had similar tastes.

"Uh-huh, I sure hope so. Or I'm going to tease you mercilessly." Daisy playfully smiled and teased him back. Now in front of Edward, she was more and more like the girl she was. But there was still a trace of aloofness she couldn't get rid of. The combination drove Edward mad with desire, and he fought hard to suppress his urges.

He heard her, but Edward just smiled at her and didn't say another word. Because he knew that this kind of thing would never happen to him. He was confident in himself.

It wasn't until they arrived at The Fragrance that Daisy realized why Edward would be so smug just now. She really liked the decor here, as it gave off a feeling of simplicity and elegance. It was definitely the kind of restaurant she would choose herself.

"Ah, this restaurant looks really nice. I wonder how the food is here." Daisy's face was full of expectation. Just looking at the pictures of the dishes on the menu was enough to make her feel hungry. She looked around the place, her eyes settling on one specific spot. The koi swimming in the artificial pond was almost hypnotic.

"I'm sure that you won't be disappointed at all. Don't you see that there are no empty seats in the lobby?" Edward's tone was proud, because he was really quite satisfied with his word. He had put a lot of effort into running this restaurant. After all, Leena was just a little free rider, and she had lost her interest in running the restaurant quickly after the decorations were put in.

"Yeah, you're right. But how come we get a private room right when we get here since this place is so popular? Not to mention that it's lunch time right now." Then it dawned on her. "You know the owner!" Indeed he did, for he was the owner. The wait staff was particularly different when they entered the restaurant, so she couldn't help but look at him confusedly.

"Yeah, of course. You know, the room we're in is reserved." Edward just secretly smiled again. He didn't know if Leena was helping them run the restaurant or not, well, he couldn't let that girl continue to be a free rider any more.
