Journey to Happy Ending novel Chapter 45

"You don't trust me? Let's check your phone's call history." Seeing her puzzled expression, Edward started to look for her mobile phone around the room.

"Okay, I trust you. But why did I call you? Why did I come here? Why did I even sleep in your bed?" Daisy asked a long list of questions. All of this made no sense to her. Edward's house was far away from her workplace, she would not come to his house unless she had a good reason.

"Do you want to know? I picked you up from your workplace and you slept in my arms all the way home." A smile appeared on Edward's lips. All of her subordinates saw him taking her in his arms. He was so deep in his thought that he did not notice the surprised expression on her face.

"What? What are you talking about? You took me in your arms? At my workplace, the military base?" Daisy could not believe this. Oh, God. What a shock! What a shame!

"Yes. I held you in my arms at that time. Is there anything wrong in that?" Edward wondered. He could feel unaffected by other people's views. He did not think of it as a big deal.

Daisy fell silent for a moment. She realized that Edward was incapable of understanding the gravity of this matter.

"How many? How many people saw you hold me?" Daisy asked, taking a deep breath. She tried to control her anger and forced a smile on her face. The smile looked quite painful.

"Oh. You can take a guess. What would you do if I say that a lot of people saw you with me and sleeping in my arms?" Edward deliberately said these words. He wanted to play with her.

"Edward Mu. I'm not kidding. It's a serious thing!" Daisy blurted out. She used to call him "Mr. Mu" and talked to him in a polite way. At the moment, however, she felt very angry.

"I'm not kidding either. I am telling you the truth." Edward's lips twitched in a smile as he said these words. He liked how cute she looked when she was angry.

"Okay. I don't mind. But, what about my clothes? Who helped me into these pajamas? Was it you, Edward?" Daisy noticed that she wasn't in her military uniform and was wearing night-clothes.

"Yes, that was me. I did it, but, so what? Are you unhappy with it?" Edward spoke cheekily.

Daisy twitched her lips. She felt a little uncomfortable being naked in front of Edward.

"Where are my clothes?" Daisy asked in an offended tone. She couldn't bear his complacent smile.

"What if I have thrown them away?" He kept mocking and tantalizing her.
