It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 822

"Thanks in advance. You may not understand, but the older I get, the more I crave for time with family members." Leo's voice was trembling upon saying those. He might not have a perfect family before but he used to have his wife and children around him. It was all gone now.

"You are welcome. After all, you are my father-in-law, right?" The kinship between Edward and Leo was undeniable even if he didn't want to admit it. However, Edward was cautious and chose to keep their distance. Because he was afraid that too much connection with him might hurt his relationship with Daisy. He knew clearly that she still wasn't over the things his father had done to her mother.

"You really think me as your father-in-law, Mr. Mu?" Leo's heart lightened at Edward's words. He had gone through great turbulence ever since Yakira's secret came to light. Not only did he lose his second family but it also made him and Daisy grow even further apart. For a time, everyone was leaving. But Edward's words were like a torch in a cold, dark night, sending him unexpected warmth and hope.

"Yes, I do. Not because I would like to think that way but because it's a simple fact. No matter how reluctant Daisy is to forgive you, you are still her biological father. I hope you understand that the only reason why I am sitting here and talking to you is that I love Daisy. I love her so that everything that concerns her becomes my concern."

Even Edward himself was surprised by how much he loved Daisy. Never in the past had he imagined that he would someday love someone as much. He panicked the first time he realized how crazy he was about her. It was the happiness that she brought him that calmed him down. She was his peace. That made him believe that she was indeed the only one for him. Thus, he consolidated his determination to do everything he could to keep her around for the rest of his life.

"I am so glad that she is married to you." It was only now that Leo realized how ridiculous he was to encourage Mary to sabotage Edward and Daisy's marriage. He felt ashamed that he was not only a lousy father but also a terrible person for doing such.

"I wish you are right. If you had read all those articles about me in the newspaper, which I guess you most certainly had, you would know how terrible a husband I was back then. Like it or not, as two of the most important men in her life, you and I have both shattered her heart in different ways. Now, do you still think that her marrying me is a good thing?"
