It'll Come Naturally

Chapter 122 I Don't Know If You'll Like Them

"Wow! You cooked all of these dishes?" Edward said excitedly while looking at the food in disbelief. Most of the dishes were his favorites.

"Yes, but I don't know if you'll like Them." Daisy said with a stammer. Though Edward assured her that nothing had happened, she was still a bit worried.

"Wow! Mom, my favorite coca-chicken. Love you!" Then Justin jumped into Daisy's arms and gave her a big kiss. The way he spoke was quite similar to Edward.

"I thought what you really love is coca-chicken, not me!" Daisy said jokingly. Justin seemed to be so preoccupied with his studies that she hardly saw him all day.

"No. I love Coca-chicken. But what I love most has always been you, mom." Justin hugged her flatteringly as if to prove what he said was true.

"Really? But I think you love coca-chicken more than me." Daisy quipped, joking about his flattery.

"LOL. Mom, are you jealous of coca-chicken? Cheeky!" Justin stroked Daisy's face with his small hands.

"Yes. Yes, I'm jealous. I am not as important as coca-chicken to Justin. I'm heartbroken." Daisy said playfully. She knew how silver-tongued and playful Justin could be. But she chose to ignore it because she liked the way he held her.

"Mom, you are the most important person to dad. Right, Dad?" Justin looked up at Edward who was smiling happily, his eyes shining slyly.

His words struck Edward dumbfound. How was he suddenly involved in their joke?

"Yes. You and your mom are equally important to me. You both are indispensable for me." Edward replied quickly. His words were precise and witty.

Daisy was a bit embarrassed and changed the topic. "Bon appetite. Let's eat. Or the food will get cold." Then she put Justin on the chair and sat beside him quietly.

"Okay, Justin, let's find out if your mother is a good cook or not." Edward's look was full of expectation.

"Dad, mom is an excellent cook. Once you try her food you will definitely ask for more." Justin could vouch for Daisy's cooking skills. He knew her talent more than anyone.

"Okay. Let me give it a try." Then he put a spoonful in his mouth. As he chewed, the expression on his face was also changing constantly.

"Do you like it? Is it any good?" Daisy looked at Edward anxiously, desperate to hear an answer.

"Well... It's great! You are a five-star cook." Edward had faked the odd expressions to make her nervous. Then he spat out the answer dramatically.

"It's good, right? Kevin also said the same thing." Justin said to Edward proudly. His words made Edward a bit gloomy.

"Does Kevin often dine with you two?" Edward asked wistfully. He was not the first man to taste the food she cooked. Was it Kevin? What did the man mean to her?

"Not frequently, just sometimes. But uncle Kevin is also good at cooking. Mom and I have sampled his cooking." Justin continued, oblivious of Edward's sullen face.

"What's wrong? You are not feeling well?" Seeing his gloomy face, Daisy asked with concern. Did Edward remember what happened at work----the thing that scared him?

"Oh! I'm alright." Edward had mixed feelings. 'Kevin, right? No matter how much you love Daisy, no matter how many good memories you two have, I don't care. From this day onward, I will make myself a large part of Daisy's life. I will make Daisy love me. You will be nothing to her.' Edward decided.

"Are you really okay? You are not unwell?" Then she turned to him and measured the temperature of his forehead.

"I am okay. I just had some negative thoughts." Edward removed her hand from his forehead and put it into his hand while stroking it gently with his fingers. From NôvelDrama.Org.

"Thank goodness you are okay. Now let's have dinner. Do you like the food? You are not feeling sick due to the food, are you?" Feeling awkward, Daisy pulled her hand from Edward's.

"Don't overthink. The food is great." Edward slightly frowned. He didn't like that Daisy pulled her hand away.

"Of course. Mom, any dish cooked by you can never be bad. Even the commander-in-chief loves your food." Justin added fuel to the fire. Now Edward got more jealous.

"Commander-in-chief? Who is he?"

Edward completely lost his poise. How come there are Kevin and another man? Is it because that the man Daisy loved was the commander, she didn't reciprocate to Kevin's love?

"Commander is commander. Who else can he be?" Justin stared disdainfully at Edward as if he were looking at some dumb person.

"Okay, Justin. Just eat your meal and stop talking." Daisy put on an angry expression and scolded him. She found Justin to be more snobbish now. He used to play cool and talk less, whereas now he was too casual.

"Okay. Mom." Justin replied with sadness. What he had said was in Daisy's interest. He purposefully said so to make Edward jealous. Yet, instead of showing gratitude, Daisy scolded him.

On the other hand, Edward just sat there with a lonesome look. If that was what Justin was going for, he undoubtedly succeeded. Edward's jealousy didn't dissipate till night when he taught Daisy a good lesson in the bed.
