It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 866

"Who said I wasn't angry anymore? No matter what your reasons are, you still hurt me and I'm still mad." Daisy turned her head away, pouting. At the same time, she was wondering whom Edward was talking about. Since Edward kept hinting about him or her, she had to know. Who was it? It must have been someone who meant something to both of them.

"Sorry. How about this? Next time, you kick me out of the car. You were fine, though. I never would have done that if Mark hadn't been following us. You really hurt my feelings today. I waited for you for two hours and then you told me that you forgot about our appointment. Although I love you, I am a man and I have a temper. You're the only one I have waited for. Not my friends, not my colleagues. Not even my parents. Can you imagine how important you are to me?"

Edward said to her after he had turned her around. That was true. Throughout his life, everybody humored him. Yet with Daisy, he was extremely patient and indulgent. When she forgot that he had been waiting, he preferred a white lie to the truth. Sometimes the truth hurt.

"That was why you were angry, but no matter what, you shouldn't have stranded me. I almost cried my eyes out." Daisy knew what she had done was out of line. Besides, it had happened more than once, and Edward had never been angry about it before. However, somehow, she was always forgetful when it came to Edward. She wasn't like this normally. In a nutshell, she relied on Edward too much and she had believed that no matter what she did, he wouldn't be mad at her. Now she realized that she was wrong. He didn't have to keep ignoring her behavior and had no reason to forgive her for the mistakes she kept making over and over.

"I was mad at first, but I got over it like I always do. Now that we're married, I should understand you completely. As an only son, I feel superior to others and am proud like many other sons of rich families. So, sometimes I'm an incorrigible ass. But today, my anger was a sham. I started the fight on purpose. It was because of the person I just mentioned. If things got hairy, I didn't want you involved. "

Edward lowered his head and kissed her again on the forehead. He had predicted that she would get hurt, but after hearing her out, he still felt a wave of pain in his heart. When she got hurt, he felt it himself.

"Tell me, who was it? Maybe I'll forgive you." Explanations weren't really necessary, since Daisy had some time to think on her way home. She had forgiven him, though she pretended otherwise. It wasn't easy for him to humor her like that. She was a grateful person. She didn't focus on other people's mistakes and neglect her own.

"You won't believe it. It was Jessica. I know she's been away for a long time. Now she's back with a new face. Her purpose is obvious -- to destroy FX International." Edward had promised Daisy that there would be no secrets between them. He knew the truth would worry her, but he still chose to tell her. On the bright side, she would be more careful now. No one knew what Jessica's next move would be.

"What? Jessica? Hasn't she learned her lesson yet? Now I get what you were talking about earlier, why you asked me if I'd still be with you if you lost everything." It turned out that Edward hadn't been talking smack. However, it took a huge amount of money to drive FX International out of business, if that were even possible. He had poured his money into so many different businesses, trying to ensure that something of his fortune would remain intact. That way he'd have some assets to leverage if he had to rebuild. Rain had once told Daisy that Lin Group had been bought out by FX International. Then where did Jessica's money come from?
