It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 965

When Tom was finally done with Daisy's wound, it had been more than ten minutes. During the entire time, small beads of sweat lingered on his forehead that refused to disappear. Edward had been staring at his every action like a hawk. His cold eyes never left him. Not a minute went by when Tom was not nervous.

"Tom, thank you!" Daisy said, wanting to grin at him widely, but all she could manage was a small twitch of her mouth. The small smile seemed a bit forced. The pressure of Edward's presence made her feel more nervous than it did to Tom.

"Well, can I just say that I'm used to it? Daisy, please, just take care of yourself! Even if it's not for me, you should be more careful for Edward's sake! I really don't like seeing you like this. You are making all of us feel worried." Tom shook his head. He meant what he said. He was also worried about Edward. He didn't know how much longer Edward could stand constantly worrying over Daisy's safety. He seemed near to mental breakdowns because of her many injury scares. Truthfully, it was the first time Tom had seen Edward so deeply in love with a woman. However, it was a shame that the first woman he loved was someone who drove him out of his mind with anxiety. Might be that only a strong man like Edward, who had a heart of steel, could handle this kind of love.

"You just talk too much, Tom. Are you done with the wound or not? If you are, go to the dining room and eat. I'm sure you are hungry. Also, I don't want to hear you whining about how I'm intentionally starving you." This was just how Edward was. He just couldn't stand other people scolding his wife, even it was his brother and friend. According to him, Edward himself was the only one who could warn her about these things so sternly. He didn't want to see Daisy uncomfortable over others' grim words. When he heard Tom speaking so seriously to Daisy, Edward contradicted him even though he himself was also mad at Daisy. Tom was absolutely right, that was true. It was just that he shouldn't be the one saying them. That was Edward's job!

Daisy raised her head to look at Edward. However, Edward didn't even glance in her direction and turned his back on her. It was clear that he didn't want to speak to her, angry as he was. To be honest, Daisy understood Edward's feelings right now. She also understood why he was so mad at her. She was aware that after tolerating her careless actions for so long, he was bound to lose his temper eventually. His domineering attitude did not come as a surprise to her at all.

"Well, honestly, you actually ARE starving me, you can't deny that. Anyway, I'm going to find Mrs. Wu and ask her to prepare some food for me. I am really hungry right now," As he said this, Tom walked downstairs, not even waiting for their reply. After all, he was already very familiar with their house. Might be he was even more familiar with their house than he was with his own. The biggest reason for that was that Mrs. Wu was an excellent cook, so he often found excuses to come over with Duke and have a delicious meal at their house.

Once Tom left the room, the atmosphere in the bedroom turned grave. The temperature seemed to drop because of the chill that surrounded Edward. Daisy nervously bit her lip when she felt the sudden change. She thought about how to apologize to him and ebb his anger. However, Edward took her silence for defiance. There was still a deep frown that marred his beautiful face, and there was no trace of the usual tenderness he had for his wife. He locked his unsmiling eyes on Daisy, who lowered her head, not looking at him.

"Well, Senior Colonel Ouyang, don't you have anything to say to your husband anymore?" Edward asked in an indifferent tone. He walked over to Daisy and looked down at her, his gaze intense.
