It'll Come Naturally

Edward hesitated for a moment, but answered the call with a frown. There was even a touch of irritation on his face.

"Hello! Who's it?" asked Edward. He had always spoken in a commanding manner, and his tone sounded very unfriendly, and harsh.

"Edward, it's me, Mary. The party is just about to start, I called you to ask when will you be arriving." Mary held her breath and exchanged glances with Yakira, who was standing beside her.

"Oh! Miss Ouyang, I'm sorry, but I'm caught with some other matters at home. It seems that I will be unable to attend to your party. I'm sorry for disappointing you." Edward took a glance at Daisy, and looked a little concerned. Daisy had shifted her attention from the scenery out of the window to Edward when she heard him say "Miss Ouyang." She curiously gazed at his face, trying to find some sort of clues.

"Ah! That's a pity! But really, don't you have some time at all? My parents and I are looking forward to your coming," said Mary, with a downcast look. Even the exquisite makeup on her face couldn't cover her sudden gloom.

"Sorry, and please send my deepest apology to your parents, but I promise to visit them on another day." Although he didn't know what had happened between her and Daisy, Mary was still Daisy's family, and he acted very politely.

"Okay. That's fine then," replied Mary. Her eyes raged with fury, and she thought, 'Some matters at home? I guess Daisy was the one who ruined my plan. That damn maid! I was slapped by her last time, but I haven't gotten the chance to revenge myself on her, yet. I didn't expect that she would offend me so soon. Let's wait and see how long she can keep being so complacent. Now that Edward has a love child, and even better, that Jessica is also pregnant with his child. Does she really think she can stay Edward's wife for good?' thought Mary.
