It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 963

Edward walked into the dining room with such a question in his head, as he saw Daisy step out of the kitchen with a bowl and a pair of chopsticks in her hands. She carefully put them in front of the vacant seat next to Cynthia.

"Daisy, there were enough bowls and chopsticks on the table. Whom are these for?" Cynthia asked in confusion. All the people who were going to have dinner were at the table already. She wondered if Daisy was expecting a guest.

"Mom, Dad is home. He is washing his hands. He will join us in a minute," Daisy replied with a smile and went to her seat. Edward sat next to her and was looking at her rather mischievously.

"Oh. I didn't expect him to come home so soon. Son, is your leg okay?" As much as she knew the question might embarrass Daisy, Cynthia couldn't help but ask out of her maternal instincts.

"My leg is fine, but someone else's seems otherwise," Edward said as he threw a glance at Daisy, his eyebrows raised.

"No way! Daddy, did you stomp on mommy's leg too?" Justin looked at Edward in surprise. There was accusation in his eyes, as if Edward had done something unforgivable.

"Do I look like somebody so unreasonable?" Edward asked and looked at Daisy pitifully, indicating that she was the one who was guilty.

"Then who was the 'someone else' you referred to?" Justin asked, wondering whom it could be, if it wasn't his Mommy.

"I meant your Mommy was injured too, but not by me." Edward rolled his eyes at Justin. 'What's up with him? He is usually so smart, but why can't he take a hint today?' Edward thought.

"What? Is it bad? Mommy, let me have a look at your injury." Justin jumped off the chair and hastened over to Daisy.

"It's nothing serious. Go back to your seat and eat your dinner." Daisy glared at Edward. Leave it to him to try and make trouble! He was trying to expose her injury in front of the entire family, which would only make all of them worry about her. He should know better than that.

"Daisy, what happened? Is it serious? I think we'd better call Tom and let him have a look at it." Cynthia was worried. Her face reflected the anxiety she felt for Daisy.

"Mom, I'm fine. It is just a scrape I got during training. It's no big deal. You shouldn't worry so much." As Daisy had expected, Edward's words were like a typhoon, bringing about immense waves on the serene waters.

"You are too careless. How are we supposed not to be worried about you?" Cynthia's eyebrows furrowed. This was nothing new. Ever since she came home from abroad, she had seen first-hand a lot of Daisy's injuries. Cynthia was starting to think more and more that Daisy's job was far too dangerous.

"I promise I will be more careful, so please don't worry about me, okay?" Daisy pursed her lips. She was so touched. A surge of strong emotions enveloped her as tears threatened to spill from her eyes. It had been too long since the last time she felt the love of her parents. Cynthia considered Daisy her own daughter. Her concern made her feel cherished. It brought back all the sad memories and stirred up the pain inflicted by everything that had happened in her own family.

"What's going on here? What's with the long faces?" came Jonathan's cold voice as he appeared in the dining room.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, you're back!" Justin was the only one who could make Jonathan smile in this family besides Cynthia.

"Yes. Did you miss Grandpa?" Jonathan lifted Justin up and held him in his arms as his eyes fixed on Cynthia, who had a gloomy look on her face. He couldn't help but frown. His gaze swept across the rest of the table, looking for the source of her distress.
