It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 91

Belinda really wanted to pour her glass of wine on the egocentric man sitting in front of her. Honestly, she would have already left if the man were not the son of her father's friend. But the truth was that she was trapped here and condemned to listen to him ramble on.

"Well, in my view, women should just stay home and tend their husbands and children, instead of working outside like some women do. Do you agree, Miss Belinda?" The arrogant man continued his monologue, spittle flying out from his mouth.

"Um.. Maybe." Belinda answered mechanically as if she had done this a thousand times before. How miserable her life was!

She was actually thinking, 'Fuck you. We are not primitive people. Fuck the idea of women doing only house chores, never any real work. If I were home-bound, how could I be on a blind date here with you?'

But instead of voicing her thoughts, she could only echo the man's words because her father had warned that if Belinda ruined another blind date, he would marry her off next month to any random man.

She rolled her eyes helplessly. Was she really that old now? Why was her father always worried about her marriage? In fact, she had enough number of men pursuing her. She had to stop listening to the man's bullshit about male superiority.

"Miss Belinda, I will help you run the company after we get married. You don't need to worry about that." The man continued, completely ignoring Belinda's cold response.

'What the hell! I will be worried if the company is in your hands. It turns out all you are interested in is my company.' Belinda complained to herself. She should show the man her true colors. She was not a submissive woman.

"I don't think I am your type. You want a meek wife cum housekeeper. But I am not interested in house chores. You should find someone else. There may be the right kind of wife for you out there, but it is just not me. Besides, I already have a boyfriend." That was the most Belinda had managed to say tonight. She couldn't stand his bullshit any longer. If her father was to blame her for this, then so be it. These worries belonged to the future. But right now, all she wanted to do was to escape from this man.

"Miss Belinda, your father told me that you were single." The man seemed not to buy Belinda's story. He didn't think a strong woman like her would be anyone's favorite.

"See. There he is. He is here to see me." Belinda turned around and spotted Duke entering. She saw him go in with other people, but it was too dark to figure out who they were. But she was in desperate need of a fake boyfriend, so she ignored the rest and waved out to Duke.

"Miss Belinda, are you kidding?" 'If that steely person was Belinda's boyfriend, I have no chance of beating him and winning over Belinda.' the egocentric man thought to himself.

"Duke, do you know that girl with the curvy figure?" Leena saw the girl waving to Duke and asked, curiously.

"Should we go there, Edward?" Rain teasingly looked at Edward. He remembered clearly that Belinda had been quite interested in Edward before.

Edward frowned, looked at Daisy and saw that she was not looking in Belinda's direction. Instead, she was focusing on the bustling crowd dining there.
