It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 888

"Edward, do you think we will live happily forever?"

Daisy whispered in Edward's ear. As autumn approached, the plants and colors in the park had changed. Some of the trees were already beginning to shed their leaves. Daisy felt a little sad as she recalled how Jessica was devoting so much energy on winning Edward back. She was rather disturbed by the very thought. What if Jessica had succeeded?

"Babe, rest assured, we will live happily ever after." Edward stopped to promise her seriously. He knew what Daisy was worrying about. Her anxiety was understandable. Edward was not going to comfort her with fancy language, but he could convince her by promising her the future.

"Edward, don't ever forget what you just said. I will be right by your side for as long as I live. You are mine alone. If I get to know that you are having an affair with someone else behind my back, I will... I will leave you without a second thought." Daisy had wanted to say that she would kill the both of them if Edward had an affair with another woman, but she knew she could never hurt Edward. She loved him so much. She would merely leave him if he betrayed her in the future. Nothing upset her more than Edward getting hurt.

"Oh I see. If I fall in love with another lady one day, I will never try to make you stay." Edward curled his lips. Was it because of the season that Daisy was getting sentimental? She had always been cool and unconcerned. However, right now, she was being so emotional.

"Come on, Edward. Why aren't you consoling me and telling me that you won't betray me?" Daisy feigned anger and hit him on the shoulder. Deep inside, she knew he was only trying to make her forget the pain by teasing her.

"Darling, you know me. I'm not comfortable expressing my emotions out loud. I prefer to convince you with my actions. It's not like you to be so sentimental." Edward knew Daisy didn't actually get hurt when she slipped and fell, but he was willing to carry her till the end of their lives.

"Oh. I get it." Daisy pulled herself closer to Edward as her head rested against his neck. She shut her eyes, enjoying the warm sun on her back. Sunlight broke through the clouds and seeped through the frail leaves. The happy couple walked in the light of the beautiful scenery.

Inside the dimly lit room of their villa, the two lovers sweated and panted as they lost themselves without inhibition to the act of love-making. They breathed deeply and heavilly one after another, faster and faster. Suddenly, the naked back of the man arched with force. The woman ground her teeth and lay helplessly with her hands tied to the bedposts.

Daisy didn't wake up until the next afternoon. She felt stiff all over. As she was about to get up, her phone rang. To her surprise, it was from Brian.

"Daisy, it's me, Brian. I'd like to invite you to lunch," Brian said cheerfully, as if he had no longer steeped himself in the past and had moved on.

"Hi, Brian. When did you come back?" Daisy was elated by the phone call. Brian had gone abroad for more than a month and never sent her a message all that time. She thought Brian had been blaming her for what happened to his mother.

"I got off the plane last night. I made this phone call as soon as I woke up." Actually, Brian had come back this time for his father. Leo had repeatedly asked him to return since he wanted Brian to patch things up between him and Daisy. So he had no other choice but to come back and talk to her.

"Well, I'll come to meet you after I get ready. How did you know I am on break today?" Daisy asked him with a frown as she went to her wardrobe to select a dress.

"I called Edward before and he said you were at home," Brian answered as he got inside his car. He had phoned Edward to gather Daisy's views about Leo. It sounded like it had been hard for Leo to ask for forgiveness from her.
