It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 960

"What happened, Daisy?" Cynthia asked anxiously as she saw Daisy rush across the dining room.

"Oh! I'm about to go to the kitchen to fetch some ice bags. I seem to have used too much force and caused some bruises on his leg. I'm going to apply cold compress on him and then apply some medicine." Daisy said, looking embarrassed, with guilt written all over her face. The man she hurt was Cynthia's only son and she couldn't be sorrier.

"Is it very serious? Do we need to send for Tom to have a check-up on him?" Cynthia automatically stood upright upon hearing her. The concern in her eyes was immeasurable.

"No, it's not that serious. I can take care of him. Don't worry, you may continue to eat. I will handle him and it will not take me long." Daisy directly walked into the kitchen as she finished her words. The ice bags were brought there by Tom the last time. They had been reserved in the fridge and were handy anytime.

"Grandma, continue to eat your dinner. Daddy is just exaggerating. He is just doing that to gain Mommy's sympathy. He is fine. Don't worry too much." Justin wasn't able to stop himself from saying those as he saw how anxious his grandmother was. His Daddy was a mischievous man after all. He was even more mischievous than himself.

"Really?" Cynthia still felt really worried. She felt restrained from rushing to Edward because she didn't want Daisy to feel guilty. It took her more seconds hesitating before she finally sat down.

"Don't worry, Mom. Mr. Mu will be fine. Mrs. Mu won't hurt him too much." Luke also assured Cynthia as he saw her worried face.

"Lukie, doesn't it sound strange? You call me Mom but you call Edward Mr. Mu, does that make sense?" Cynthia frowned. She had told Luke that she took him as her own son. How come he was still so polite? She didn't know what to do anymore to make him forget about all these formalities.

"Well... I just get used to it. It is difficult for me to change the appellation now." Luke pursed his lips. Although he knew that Cynthia was right, he still thought that it was better to remain as it was.

"Fine, whatever, just suit yourself. I have told you so many times about the appellation but you never listened. Fine, just let it as it is. I won't push you." Cynthia heaved a sigh. She shouldn't feel bothered as long as his new son was comfortable. Luke seemed to be closer to Edward even than to herself. That was a delight.

Luke raised his head and glanced at Cynthia. He opened his mouth but then he wasn't able to find the right words. Thus, he shut his mouth back. There were just no words to explain what he wanted to explain. Sometimes, silence spoke louder than words.

Edward was overjoyed to see Daisy come back to him. He thought she didn't care and just left him there alone. It was not until he felt something cold on his leg that he realized what Daisy had done. She fetched ice bag for him.
