Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1600 The C-Section (Part One)

The sound of the opened door and clack of heeled shoes in the foyer let the people in the house know

that someone had just arrived. It was Daisy, followed by Edward and Justin. As soon as Daisy and

Edward stepped into their room, she dropped her bag on the table and that made Edward look at her

instantly. "Spit it out! What did you want to ask just now?" Daisy asked as she scrunched up her face in

seriousness, her hands on her waist. She had a feeling that there was a secret between her husband

and Leena.

Edward raised his eyebrows in mild surprise and said, "Okay, one question first. Will you mind if I'm

occasionally affectionate towards Leena? For example, will you mind me hugging her or other close

types of contact like that?" Edward asked because he wanted to know what Daisy thought about this,

but he subconsciously believed that she wouldn't be so narrow-minded and shallow about these types

of things.

Daisy raised her eyebrows and replied, "Why do you ask that? Well since you brought it up, I'd like to

share my thoughts with you-- but first, tell me, will you completely ignore me when you lavishly dote on

Leena?" Daisy finished. She had always thought of herself as a very generous and broad-minded

person. She never bothered herself with trifling matters and was quite confident in things that were

significant to her.

"No." Edward answered without a slight hesitation in his deep voice.

"Since you said no, why should I be bothered? I know what Leena is like. She is such a smart and

lovely girl. I'm fond of her. Why should I be jealous because you also adore her?" Daisy answered

thoughtfully, the hands on her waist dropped and her body visibly relaxed. She had been really upset

inside seeing Edward and Leena hug each other when she first saw her, but she didn't know back then

that Leena was like an endearing sister to Edward. When she got to know this, she felt rather ashamed

of how narrow-minded she had acted.

"Really? Do you really think so?" Edward looked at her with a happy smile that graced his lips. He

knew that the woman he had chosen would not be that shallow. He was right in his previous belief.

"And now it's your turn to tell me why did you suddenly ask such a question. Is it something about

Leena?" Daisy folded her arms across her chest. Her face became serious again and she trusted her

instinct.

"Hmm. Yes, it is. Probably because Tom adores Leena too much and that made Patricia very

uncomfortable. She was quite unhappy about it recently." Patricia was a straightforward person. She

couldn't understand such kind of a close and intimate relationship between Tom and Leena. Their

closeness extended to a lot of hugging and almost jovial kinds of conversations.

"It is valid for her to feel like that, but she forgot that no matter how much Tom adores Leena, she is

only like a sister to him. There are no conflicts between Tom's love for his wife and his closeness to his

family and friends." Daisy bit her perfectly cut nails as she analyzed the whole thing and thought deeply

about what Edward said.

"But she is not you and she can't think in the same way as you do," said Edward. In that moment,

Edward felt that he was so fortunate to marry such an excellent woman who could do everything well. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Most importantly, this woman loved him deeply. She was confident and put a lot of trust in him and their

relationship.

"Don't worry! Patricia is not an unreasonable woman. She would come around after a period of time,"

Daisy finally said. It wasn't something difficult to get over. It was just a situation that needed time.

"I hope so! But now, should we talk about us, our matters?" Edward said as his voice dipped an octave

lower and he flashed a sly smile. When it came to love, he became very mean. So how could he

possibly let Daisy get away so easily?

"Us? What matters are there between us?" Daisy said defensively as her eyes glanced sideways and

her legs backed a few steps. The hair on the back of her neck stood on end. She knew Edward was not

easy to fool around, but did he really have to show that horrible smile? It gave her goosebumps!

"What do you think?" Edward said as he sauntered over to her. He laughed softly because it didn't help

when she backed off as he could just go closer to her.

"I'm warning you, don't come any closer to me." Daisy was cornered when she felt her back hit the wall,

and she suddenly realized that she had made a very stupid mistake. She had always been very smart,

but where was that smartness now?

"What if I come closer? What would you do to me?" Edward was so close now that Daisy could smell

his masculine scent and it sent shivers down her spine. He had always been the overbearing and

tyrannical boss, and how could she possibly exert this power over him? He didn't show any signs to

stop at her warning. He just continued to inch closer to her as his eyes scanned her in a controlling

manner. He was so close now that if he slightly dipped his head lower, he could easily kiss her

forehead. Daisy felt his breath on her ear and that sent shivers down her spine.

"I'm sure you will regret," Daisy said with gritted teeth as she tossed her head to the side. She was

once again caught in his arms, and it sucked.

"Okay, show me how you will make me regret.

I can't wait to see." Edward only smirked smugly even more. Daisy almost stumbled at the sight of his

wicked grin. 'Huh, I am an honorable Senior Colonel, how could I possibly be intimidated by such a

shameless man? How could I live up to the name of my title after so many years' training in the army

base?' Daisy thought.

"Edward Mu, you're offending the military officer. Do you know it's a serious crime?" Daisy suddenly

changed her demeanor and said in a sultry voice as she grasped his tie, an equally mischievous smile

on her luscious lips. Gone was the shy girl who was itching to get away from him a while ago and the

tough senior colonel was suddenly replaced by this vixen.

"Oh? I didn't know that. But I'm willing to listen what crime I have committed." Edward's eyes narrowed

into slits as he gazed at her. She was still green at teasing a man as she awkwardly gripped his tie with

a trembling hand. However, he was quite eager to see what she would do next.

"Huh, you silly man. Do you really want to know? Beg me." Daisy stood on her tiptoes and caressed his

senses with her sultry voice. Her luscious lips grazed the shell of his ear and lightly touched his

earlobe. She subtly tried to arouse his sensual desires. She was definitely more open now compared to

what she was like a year ago.

"Dear, you are amazing. It seems that you have learned a lot of these skills. You are stirring up the fire

in me, but have you thought how could you get away once I lose my control?" Edward's brows shot up

in mild excitement as he was more curious to see what she had to show next. His lustful eyes bore into

her own, as if trying to light the passionate fire in them.

"I have never thought of getting away." Daisy said as her hands fumbled around his body, her fingers

tracing the contours of his abdomen beneath the dress shirt he wore. An innocent smile found its way

to her face. She grabbed his attention even more.

"Oh. So does it mean that you have given in to me?" The more Daisy tried to seduce him, the more

Edward became vigilant. He felt that this act might be a honey trap and he should be cautious.
