It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 92

"First, let's just go inside the box." Edward didn't like the way other men were looking at Daisy. So he pulled Daisy back in his arms, disregarding Belinda's plaintive look. Well, Daisy was his wife. Of course, he should be the one holding her. He had loaned Daisy to Belinda just because of carelessness.

Belinda didn't notice Edward's action until he grabbed Daisy back. Her eyes widened in surprise. She couldn't believe that Edward was together with Daisy. How had she not heard of it? Edward had addressed another woman intimately just several days ago. Maybe he was playing the dangerous game of two-timing?

"Miss Belinda, wait." The man, after being invisible all this while, finally found his chance to chip in.

"What's the matter?" Belinda had almost forgotten about the man. She frowned and asked with a voice laced with boredom.

"Do you really have a boyfriend?" The man asked diffidently, because the men besides Belinda were all so above-average and handsome.

"Of course. I don't need to find a fake boyfriend. Right? Duke." Then she nudged Duke, who was standing close to her, and kept winking at him. Well, she was faking it, but so what? There was no law against getting a fake boyfriend.

Then Duke saw a live example of blatantly lying through one's teeth. That was exactly what Belinda was doing. It turned out that she was just using him as an excuse to get out of a date. He threw a cold look at the man. Then, without a word, he grabbed Belinda's hand, turned around and walked away, giving the man no chance to ask any more questions.

Belinda didn't see this coming, so the moment Duke grabbed her hand, she was a bit at loss. That was the first time she had interlocked her fingers with a man's. Till she felt the warmth from his palm, she would never have imagined that such warmth could come from a man so cold.

'They are really seeing each other.' Rain pondered on this, his eyes foxy and cunning. Maybe Duke was really in love. After all, he had never seen Duke being so intimate with any woman before. But now he had held Belinda's hand and gone off. That showed clearly how he felt.

"Hey. Dude, I don't think you stand a chance there. You should just come back." Rain smiled charmingly at the frozen man, waved him goodbye and followed in Duke's steps.

Duke was also a bit confused by his own actions. He disliked bossy women like Belinda. But why did he help her this time? And when she threw herself into his arms, instead of feeling uncomfortable, he had felt happy. That had never happened before.

After several days of getting along, Daisy gradually got accustomed to Edward's intimacy. But she still felt embarrassed of being intimate in public. Yet, she didn't reject him because she did not want Edward to lose face in public.

"Belinda is Duke's girlfriend?" Daisy asked Edward in a low voice. She turned around and looked at them curiously.

"She is about to be." Edward answered, while grinding his teeth. His hand, which was holding Daisy, became tighter. His face turned evil.
