It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 96

"Mom, please, just take your darling to bed! Don't let him stand here this late."

Belinda was relieved when she finally saw her mother, Sherry. Everyone knew that her father loved her mother very much and Belinda's mother doted on her profusely, which was why she was so wayward.

"Hey little girl, don't annoy your father, or I won't ever take your side. By the way, who was that boy tonight? Your boyfriend? How about asking him to have dinner with us next time? Why don't you introduce him to us? That way, your father wouldn't try to set you up on blind dates all day long." Sherry pretended to be angry and poked Belinda's head with her finger, but her voice was very tender. Sherry was middle-aged, but she was still very attractive.

"My lovely mother, it's late. I want to sleep now. I don't want to wake up with dark circles tomorrow morning." Belinda grabbed Sherry's arm like a little kid and kissed her. Sherry smelt the booze on her breath.

" Oh my! How much wine did you have?" Sherry pushed Belinda away in disgust, and thought, how come the older she gets, the more bothersome she becomes?

"Not much. I didn't get drunk. Daisy was the one who got drunk. I got her drunk on purpose." Belinda hiccuped. She was mad at Daisy because Daisy was dishonest with her. That's why Belinda deliberately got Daisy drunk. She knew Daisy couldn't drink too much, but her husband was also there. Didn't they realize that alcohol can be an aphrodisiac? She was trying to help them, and let them have a chance to get laid!

"What? Are you still in touch with Daisy? How's she doing now? We haven't seen her for the longest time. How about asking her to have dinner with us next time?" Sherry felt sorry, thinking about Daisy. No one could imagine that Daisy, a girl who was nothing short of a beautiful princess would be treated like a slave by her step-mother.

"My dear mom, Why do you always want to invite people to have dinner with us?" I am really exhausted right now. Can we talk about this later?" Right now, Belinda just wanted to take a shower and go to bed. That way she would be active and ready to hang out with Daisy tomorrow. Belinda had thought her mother was her hero, but she was way more annoying than her father.

Zachary didn't utter a word when Sherry was present, because he knew it was useless to say anything in front of the two women. After all, women made all the rules in this house. Then why bother to say anything?

"Oh, you silly girl, fine, just go, but don't forget to tell me tomorrow." Since Belinda was tired, Sherry was reluctant to ask her again. Anyway, there would be plenty of time tomorrow.

"Thanks, mom. Hey, dad, you'd better take your wife to bed!" Belinda said and made faces at her parents. Then happily she ran upstairs.

"Look, at your baby girl." Zachary helplessly looked at Belinda and said to Sherry disappointedly. He hadn't asked the most important questions yet! And Belinda just slipped away like that.

"That's your daughter too!" Speaking of their baby girl, Zachary couldn't do anything to hurt her either so he couldn't blame Sherry alone.
