Daisy was completely speechless about Edward's question. She didn't expect Edward would be so shameless.
"Haha! Edward, handsome is not the right word for you. You are actually very beautiful!" Leena laughed with the joke. She didn't care about Edward's angry look directed at her. She knew that Edward hated to hear others refer to him as beautiful. But Leena completely ignored him. She wasn't at all afraid.
Edward really couldn't do anything to Leena in response to this. There would only be the Leena who dared to test his breaking point. If this were someone else who had dared to say the same thing, they would be doomed!
"Leena, you're right this time. Edward is a gorgeous beauty." Rain was finally satisfied. Leena had helped him exact revenge on Edward. He had felt aggrieved when everyone called him sissy. He had company now.
"A gorgeous beauty? It seems that someone has some nerve!" Edward said this with an evil smile. His voice was very cold. He squinted at Rain, with eyes as sharp as an eagle's. That sharp look sent a shiver down to Rain's spine. 'Oh! Why? It was Leena who started this! Why am I always the one to be blamed?' Rain bitterly thought.
"Haha! I'm joking! I think Mr. Duke is more beautiful. Look at his handsome appearance, perfect figure and cool... demeanor..." Rain faltered when he received a cold look from Duke. He fell silent. 'Oh my God! I had forgotten that Duke was even more frightening than Edward! I have made a fool of myself again.' Rain thought.
"Continue. Why have you stopped?" Duke gazed at Rain haughtily. There was no other expression on his handsome face apart from coldness. Rain has really become bolder like Edward had said. He had dared ruffle Duke's feathers.
"I'm done with words." Rain replied with a downcast look. He couldn't afford to offend anyone present here. He looked around. He felt that he was the only one destined to be bullied here.
Daisy glanced over. She was bewildered by the way they got along with each other. It seemed that they didn't quite get along. But then she felt she was wrong. it was more of a casual friendship with a lot of exaggerated dialogues. This kind of a relationship felt refreshingly different, but also confusing.
Edward had been keenly watching Daisy. He sensed this subtle change in her eyes. Although she didn't say anything, Edward already knew what was on her mind.
"We have always been like this. You will get used to it soon enough." Edward said to Daisy. He touched her hair with affection, and smelled the light jasmine fragrance on her hair. It was a smell he liked.
Daisy was surprised and wondered how Edward could always read her mind. She turned around to gaze firmly at him, trying to find clues.
"If you continue to look at me like that, I will kiss you right now." Edward said. He was fascinated by Daisy's charming looks now. And she was gazing into his eyes with her innocent eyes, looking flabbergasted. How lovely she was! If there weren't so many people around, he didn't know what he would have done to Daisy!
"Edward, you're such a rogue." Daisy glared at him and cursed in a low voice. It seemed that she was becoming a bit angry.
"I am a rogue only when I am with you. If it were any other woman, I wouldn't even look at her." Edward continued to murmur in her ear. The warm breath escaping out as his sexy lips moved filled Daisy's ear. It agitated her.
