It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 865

Edward walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist, with some beads of water on his fair skin. Due to exercise, his body was a perfect inverted triangle, fit and slim.

He casually grabbed a towel and dried his sopping hair. Lips tightened, he paced to the bed. Daisy seemed to be in a sound sleep. After standing at her bedside and gazing lovingly for a while, he sighed and bent over to tuck her in. Before he stood up again, he couldn't help pressing a gentle kiss on her forehead.

While Edward did that, Daisy held her breath, wondering what he was going to do next. She lay there motionless like a statue, afraid to make any move. She knew what might be coming next.

"Going to keep pretending? You're not asleep," Edward asked with a grin as he tore off his towel. Naked, he walked to the wardrobe and pulled on a pair of briefs. He did it so naturally that there was no trace of embarrassment on his face.

Daisy knew that she'd been found out. She didn't feel like doing anything, though. Without the slightest intention of talking to Edward, she bit her lip a bit and continued to pretend to be sleeping.

"I guess you're really asleep. So you won't mind all the dirty things we're going to do together." Edward returned to the bed and looked intensely at her, wondering how long she could keep this up. She was good, but not that good.

Hearing this, Daisy pulled the quilt up, covering herself more. This assured Edward that she had been pretending. 'This game's gone on long enough, ' he thought, and promptly threw himself on her.

"You asshole!" Daisy had no choice but to open her eyes, burning with anger.

"Well, I know you're mad, but I'm still not going to say sorry. So how do we settle this?" Edward lifted a lock of her hair and coiled it around his fingers playfully. He was enjoying this greatly.

"I don't care what you do. Just leave me alone. I need my beauty sleep." Her mouth was still thick with fatigue, and somewhat dry from actually sleeping. Daisy gnawed her lips with a straight face. At this moment, she seemed estranged and indifferent and didn't appreciate Edward's sprightly attitude.

"Okay then. Remember what you just said. I can do whatever I want." The smirk on his face spread. Even the look in his eyes had put on a cunning color.

"Wait. When did I say that? Edward, I'm warning you. Don't use that sly business crap on me. Don't piss me off. Remember how hard I kick?" Daisy looked at him coldly and pushed him away. Her mouth remained a tight line. She seemed quite serious about what she had said. Edward was pushing this to the thin red line.

"Really? You really want a rematch? Remember the last time? You had a hard time walking afterwards." Still wearing that smirk, Edward stole a kiss, planting one right on her cheek.

"Stay away from me, you sex maniac!" Daisy sounded really ticked off. When she touched his perfect body, she blushed involuntarily. No one had a right to look this good!

"Why do you want me to stay away from you? Are you hot? Don't worry, honey. I'll turn the temperature down." As if he truly believed that was what Daisy meant, Edward fetched the air-conditioner remote and turned the temperature down. He was highly amused by his antics. He knew that playing dumb was the best way to cool her off, regardless of whatever the real temperature was in the room.
