It'll Come Naturally

Chapter 396 Not There (Part One)

Edward was busy reading reports and signing papers the whole morning. He didn't have the time to leave his office. He couldn't even go out and have lunch with Daisy in some fancy restaurant. Daisy had to eat alone and order delicious and healthy takeout for Edward. Edward ate in his office after Daisy came back, and soon went back to work after his quick lunch.

After signing his name on the last document on his desk, Edward took a deep sigh and tiredly leaned against his chair with closed eyes. He rubbed between his eyebrows and took a short catnap. When he reopened his eyes, Edward found Daisy sleeping soundly on the couch. There was a faint smile on her face, her eyelashes quivering slightly as she breathed. Edward's lips curled into a tender smile at the sight.

'What a sleepy head! She's been sleeping for hours, and she hasn't woken up yet. Did I wear her out in bed last night?' Edward wondered as he gazed at Daisy's sleeping face.

Edward wasn't a man who liked indulgence. To him, sex was merely a way to satisfy physical needs. But after meeting Daisy, everything changed. For some reason, he lost control of himself whenever Daisy was around.

Edward looked at his watch to check the time. Then he rose from his chair and walked up to Daisy. He sat on the edge of the couch, lovingly caressing her face with his long fingers. He shook his head with a small smile. Was she really a colonel? Her vigilance was so poor.

"Honey, wake up. It's time to go home now." Edward gently pinched the tip of her delicate nose, leaning forward to whisper in her ear. Disturbed by his actions, Daisy slapped his hand away and grumbled incoherently. She turned away, still sound asleep.

Edward paused, his smile growing. If he couldn't wake her up like this, he didn't mind trying a different method.

With a smirk, he leaned closer and pressed his lips to hers. The sleeping woman suddenly opened her eyes and subconsciously flung her fist towards Edward's stomach. Although Edward sensed Daisy's sudden movement, it happened too fast for him to react.
