It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 874

"You're an uneducated man, and good for nothing. If I were you, I would let go of Manager Chen as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will take you to the police and get your ass kicked. It will teach you a lesson." When Rain challenged his temper and patience, Edward was fine with it. However, he wanted to strangle Shaun when he did that.

"Hah! Don't be ridiculous. You think you can arrest me and put me in jail? Let me remind you that you are not in charge of the police force, in case you have forgotten that." The overconfident Shaun didn't notice that Melissa was rooted in her spot, standing very still. She stared at the man she both loved and hated so much. Although a long time had passed since she last saw Edward, she still found him attractive and charming. Her breath was caught as she was lost in his beauty once again.

"Boss, I..." Manager Chen's voice trailed off. He shot Edward an embarrassed look, regretting coming across such a difficult client.

"It's fine. I've got you covered," Edward said in an assuring voice. Since this confrontation had occurred because of him, he wouldn't walk away and leave Manager Chen with this mess. Besides, the manager was a loyal and qualified employee. Edward was determined to protect him.

"Hah! I am just afraid that it's out of your control," Shaun said scornfully. He was arrogant and a bully. Even though he heard Chen address Edward as boss, he didn't give a damn about it. In his eyes, the mall was no match to Kompass Group. However, he did think that Edward was quite handsome. His features were sharp, which lent him an extraordinary charm. Shaun would not mind befriending such a charismatic man.

Melissa knew Edward's true identity. She hated Shaun for provoking him that way. What a fool he was, she thought. Before they came here, she had shown him Edward's background files. However, Shaun seemed to remember nothing including Edward's charming appearance. 'This is like committing suicide, ' Melissa thought with fury. At that moment, she knew Shaun couldn't be relied upon to destroy FX International Group. She was so naive to trust him with the task.

"As the CEO of this mall, I'm responsible for dealing with all accidents that occur here. Also, I'm quite capable of solving any difficulties. Any problems?" Edward sneered.

In any case, Edward wouldn't allow this necklace to be bought by somebody else. It was rare that an accessory suited Daisy so well. Besides, in his opinion, the Ice Rain was too good for Melissa. Since she had chosen to keep her true identity from Edward, he too chose to remain ignorant. Edward felt it was convenient for him to buy the necklace for Daisy.

"You're just the owner of a fucking mall. Don't be a fool. Do you have any idea who I am?" Shaun said in a defiant voice. Melissa stared at him in horror and disbelief. 'You damn fool. Edward has already told you that he's the president of this mall. How could you not figure out that he might be a senior figure in FX International Group?' Melissa thought remorsefully. She had truly wasted her time and energy in preparing the files for Shaun.

"You tell me." Edward smirked. Although Edward had been informed of Shaun's identity, he didn't want to show him that he knew. He was looking forward to seeing Shaun make a scene and embarrass himself.

"I am Shaun Gao, CEO of Kompass Group from H City. Everyone knows who I am," Shaun said gleefully. He stood upright and raised his head. Whatever he did, he could never look as tall and charismatic as Edward. His short height always came in the way of him trying to impress a stranger.

"I see. So, you're the president of Kompass. Sorry, I didn't recognize you. My bad," Edward said insincerely, his voice cold. As a successful business leader, Edward was trained to stay calm and confident in crisis situations. However, Shaun was too arrogant and ignorant to do that.
