It'll Come Naturally

Chapter 380 Rain, You Are Courting Death (Part Two)

Although Belinda was talking to Brian, she seemed absent. She fixed her watery eyes on the closed door the whole time. Her heart kept sinking because Duke hadn't shown up yet. The longer she waited for him, the more nervous she became. She was getting desperate. Was Duke still outside because he was catching up with Rachel, his old lover, and he had no time to care about Belinda? Or did he just decide to dump Belinda and leave with Rachel? Maybe he had made up his mind, and he just didn't know how to tell Belinda. That was why he didn't come into the room -- he was trying to make up a story to break up with Belinda. Lost in her own distracting thoughts, Belinda couldn't help but clench her fists in agony.

"Hey, little boy. What happen to your dear mommy and daddy? Are they mad at each other?" After helping Justin climb up the seat next to him, Rain gently nudged Justin and turned his head to Edward and Daisy sitting not far away. He went straight in after he handed Justin to Edward outside the club. Edward was kissing Daisy's forehead back then! Why was he wearing a sullen face all of a sudden? Why was everything turning completely upside down? What could possibly happen in such a short time? 'Did I miss something? I shouldn't have left so soon! What a pity!' Rain thought to himself.

"What could be wrong? Don't make a mountain out of a molehill! They are not mad at each other! Daddy's only pretending to be angry. He wants mommy to sweet-talk him!" Just like a few moments ago, Justin once again blurted out without keeping his voice down. Edward had a mouthful of liquid; he couldn't help but spurt it out and cough violently as he heard what his son had said. 'Me? The CEO of the FX International Group, is pretending to be angry because I want some woman to sweet-talk me? Are you kidding me?' Edward glared at his son in disbelief. When his eyes met Justin's innocent ones, Edward rubbed his face and sighed heavily. Justin really was the death of him. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

"No freaking way! Edward, is that true? I was wondering why you suddenly put on a sullen face. It turns out that you want to hear some sweet words from Daisy? What a loving couple you are! Come on, don't be shy! You should just say out loud what you want! If I had known about this earlier, I'd definitely have

invited more people tonight. And we could record this moment and burn some DVDs for each one of us. I will personally add it into my favorites collection. Think, man! If you ever try to bully me again, just think about how many people would see this video!"

Rain got excited after he heard Justin. He had seen so many women fight for Edward's attention before, but he had never seen Edward do anything like this to get a woman's attention! It wasn't something happened everyday! And it was totally the moment to remember. As if he had already had the moment recorded, Rain began to plan cheerfully in his mind on what was going to happen if he uploaded the video to the Internet. Would the stock price of the FX International Group suffer a major drop because of it? Or would it help boost the company's business? Maybe he could seize the opportunity to make a fortune and resign, so Edward wouldn't have the chance to bully him again. As Rain was thinking about how bright and beautiful his future would be, he heard Edward's cold voice, "Rain, I can assure you that you'll suffer a long and painful death if you dare to do it. Just try it if you don't believe me." Edward soon came back to his senses. He cleared his throat and had another sip of his drink before he finally composed himself. He then threw a cold glance at Rain with obvious threats in his look. He didn't take Rain's words seriously, because he didn't believe Rain had the nerve to do what he just said. Edward knew Rain liked talking nonsense all the time, but Edward also felt like he should warn him every now and then in case Rain forgot to behave.

At the other side of the table, Daisy bit her rosy lip as she tried to suppress the urge to burst into laughter, her shoulders trembling because of it. 'He wants me to sweet-talk him?' Daisy thought to herself. She thought of Edward's words and look before they went in. 'It makes sense.' Daisy secretly nodded her head inside. Then she pictured that Edward gazed at her with a pout, waiting for her to coax him. Daisy suddenly shuddered in terror at the thought. 'No way! I think I'll pass. Edward with a pouty face? That's horrible to even think about.' Daisy thought to herself as she trembled all over again.

"Damn it! Why do you have to threaten me every day? The company would still be there if you spare me for even just one day!" Rain pursed his lips in grievance. 'Why does Edward bully me every day?

He is truly a demon!' However, Rain wouldn't dare to say it out loud, for Edward was his boss who had a say in the numbers on his paycheck and everything else. Therefore, no matter how much he wanted to fight back, Rain could only swallow his pride and keep quiet.

"Yo! You guys are having a good time. Wait, what happened? Why does everyone seem strange? Am I late? Did I miss anything fun?" Another voice came from the door; it was Tom. Tom was a genius doctor; he always looked nice and gentle. But his guard was up whenever Edward was around. He became wary and alert, like a prey in front of predator whenever he saw Edward. Tom could still remember how Edward bullied him by robbing his invaluable medicine and giving him black eye, twice, after he came back from abroad for barely two weeks. Tom decided to keep Edward at arm's length, for fear that he got himself into trouble again.

"Don't ask me. I won't say anything. My life is full of so many wonderful things, and there are so many pretty girls waiting for me to love them. I'd rather stay alive and enjoy my life." Noticing Tom's inquisitive look, Rain shook his head and looked away. He was boring, not crazy. He thought he could play a little joke on Edward, but clearly it wasn't the right time. After being threatened by Edward so bluntly, Rain wouldn't dare to say anything ever again. For God's sake, he was the one who had to work for Edward, not Tom. If he told Tom anything, he wasn't sure whether Edward would do something to Tom, but Rain was sure that Edward would make his life more than miserable.

"Uncle Tom! Let's make a deal! If you teach me how to be a doctor, I'll consider telling you what happened. What do you think?" Eyes wide open, Justin put on a sweet smile while eagerly shaking Tom's arm. If Tom didn't catch the glimpse of slyness glowing in his eyes, he would believe that Justin was such a sweet and innocent child. But unfortunately, he did.

"Hey, little one. Are you trying to bargain with me? You're almost as sly as your dear daddy! Nice try. But it doesn't work that way." With a loving smile, Tom bent over and gently pinched Justin's chubby

face. He sat down next to Justin and looked around the room. When he saw Brian, Tom politely nodded his head but said nothing to greet him.

"You're wrong, uncle Tom. My daddy isn't sly. It's called being prepared. It's completely different. How could you describe someone as smart and excellent like my daddy as sly? It's unfair. Besides, you know the old saying, 'everyone does everything for their own benefit'. People didn't just make that up out of nothing. A lot of wisdom is in that." Justin replied slowly with his head shaking up and down, as if he were some ancient wise man.
