It'll Come Naturally

"Humph! Rachel, you left Duke and married someone else back then. Why would you think it's his fault now?" Edward sneered as he gazed at Rachel, his face full of contempt and sarcasm. Just like Jessica, Rachel was obviously too full of herself. Edward felt obligated to help her come back to reality.

"I admit I was too rash back then. But he also lied to me! Why would I choose someone else if he had told me that he is the heir to the Leng family?" Rachel was pissed off while thinking of this. Duke came from a wealthy family, but he never mentioned it to her. She had always thought that Duke was only one of Edward's sidekicks. That was why she left him and married a middle-aged rich guy. It was too late when she found out from the TV news that Duke was actually a prince charming, rather than a penniless beggar.

"You mean you only love Duke's money, not him?" Daisy was surprised how cheeky Rachel was. She was as self-centered and selfish as Jessica! And they both enjoyed playing with others' feelings. Daisy suddenly realized Rachel and Jessica could be best friends if they were introduced to each other.

"Mrs. Mu, are you telling me that there's pure love between you and Edward? Without any strings? Come on! I don't buy it at all. Everything comes down to money in the end!" Rachel snapped at Daisy with a sneer, her eyebrows raised in contempt. She despised Daisy. 'What a condescending bitch! Mrs. Mu? I never knew that Edward got married! How shameless she is to call herself Mrs. Mu! And look at her bastard son! How filthy! And did she just give me a lecture about love trumping everything? What an ignorant and stupid woman! Who cares about love these days? Money is the only thing that matters!' Rachel thought to herself.

"Strings? There is. And it's quite simple. I just want him. Money is not important to me since I won't be needing that much anyway. The only thing matters to me is Edward himself." Staring right into Rachel's eyes, Daisy calmly replied as she casually played with her glass. She wasn't mad at Rachel's accusation, because she knew Rachel was wrong. Not every woman cared only about money; take her for example, she just loved Edward and wanted to be with him.

Surprised, Edward turned to Daisy, his eyes glowing with excitement. Daisy had never told him this before; and he certainly didn't expect he'd get an idea of her true feelings in this conversation. Meanwhile, Edward felt even more grateful to have Daisy in his life. He had never felt more ashamed of himself until this very moment, when he finally realized how pure his wife's love for him was.

"It seems I'm being shallow here. But you know what? I don't care whether he is married; I won't give up on what belongs to me! As long as I want him, he must be mine! I wouldn't say the same about others, but I know Duke. And I know he would want to be with me." Rachel snorted and glared at Daisy, as if Duke was already groveling at her feet.

I'm warning you, don't ever try to ruin his marriage; or I won't let you off easily. You know I am a man of my word. So

Duke once; he wouldn't give her the chance to do it again. Not to mention that Duke was married to Belinda, Daisy's best friend. There was no way that Edward would stand there and watch Rachel break them up. Daisy would be

impatiently. What on earth did Duke see in her? Luckily she gave up and left; Edward believed they wouldn't be happy if they had gotten together. Duke deserved someone

excuse and stood up abruptly. She really hated it when Edward sneered like this. She wanted to slap him, but she couldn't. Hence she could only leave. She came to Edward because she was hoping he could help hook her and Duke up. Now, after their conversation, the only thing she could hope for was that Edward wouldn't interfere with her plans to

to hear that Rachel was leaving. She had no intention to make her stay since she practically didn't know her. What's more, Rachel's return might threaten Belinda's interests, which made Daisy even more angry. But

Daisy was lost in thought. She didn't worry about whether Duke would take Rachel back; the only thing that concerned her was whether Belinda would get hurt. Daisy knew Belinda had fallen in love with Duke, and she believed Duke felt the same thing for Belinda. But Rachel's sudden return would definitely cast a shadow

Daisy smiled gently at Justin while fondling his head. She noticed
