It'll Come Naturally

Chapter 394 A Cup Of Tea (Part One)

Edward gazed at Daisy intently. His heart filled with happiness as he studied her. He liked it when she stayed within his sight.

He felt guilty when he thought about the few years that he hadn't spent with her. He felt bad about his prodigal years, but he also knew that no matter how much remorse he felt, it would never bring him back to the time they first met. He could only dote on her in the days to come, so his heart wouldn't be engulfed by bitter regret.

He looked deeply at her again before picking up the thick stack of documents on his desk. As soon as he saw the figures and projects he was familiar with, he became immersed in his own world.

Time passed quietly. Daisy watched Edward's serious face as he worked with great affection. With a hand on her chin, a faint smile graced her lips.

Edward was definitely a good-looking man. He was handsome from every angle. Especially at that moment, the focused look on his face as he looked through the documents intently gave him more charm.

It was true that when a man was working, he was most charming. Watching him quickly scrabble on a document and gaze at the computer screen had Daisy entranced. The deepest part of her heart melted at the sight.

Looking at her watch, she frowned slightly. She then stood up decisively and turned away.

"What's wrong? Are you bored?" Edward asked, raising his head. He had been discreetly paying attention to Daisy the whole time, so he sensed even the slightest movement from her.

"No, I'm not bored. I'm going to make you a cup of coffee." Daisy replied, turning back to him. Wasn't Edward busy reading the documents? Why was he still able to notice her movements?

"Oh, thank you. Espresso, no sugar." Edward wasn't expecting so much work. When he started, he intended to finish his work quickly and spend some time with Daisy. But his plan was disrupted by Rain. He felt a little bad. Daisy had spent her free time with him, but she spent it sitting alone while he dealt with work. He readily agreed when she offered to make coffee for him. That way, she could move around for a bit.

"You don't want any sugar? What about milk?" Daisy said with a frown. Espresso without any sugar was too strong for Edward's heart. Although she knew that coffee had many advantages and could help energize him, it wasn't good for him to drink too much black coffee, especially when he hadn't eaten anything yet. She was afraid that he might get a stomachache.

"No, coffee with milk is tasteless. And I don't like the taste of milk." Edward looked at her imploringly. He hoped Daisy wouldn't actually add milk to his coffee.

"Never mind, then. I'll make a cup of tea for you." Daisy quickly walked out of the room without giving him a chance to protest. She would never make him a cup of black coffee.

Edward's eyes narrowed as he watched Daisy's figure disappear from his sight. Was she making decisions for him now? NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

"Mrs. Mu, what can I do for you?" As soon as she saw Daisy step out of the CEO's office, Anna quickly approached her. She was tasked to help Rain, but the arrogant bastard had suddenly gone to play golf with clients, leaving her idle in the company.

"Yes, thank you. Miss Anna, where's the tea room, please?" Daisy looked around, but failed to find any signs of the tea room.

"What do you want to drink, Mrs. Mu? I'll bring to you." Anna couldn't help blaming herself. In an effort to avoid disturbing their privacy, she forgot to make coffee for them. The CEO normally consumed a cup of coffee every two hours at work.

"No, thank you. Just tell me where the tea room is, that would be enough. I'll make a cup of tea for Edward." Although Daisy's voice was cold, it never made people feel uncomfortable.

"But Mr. Mu doesn't..." Anna quickly stopped talking. She was about to say that Mr. Mu didn't like tea, but she was worried that it might give Daisy the impression that she knew too much about Edward's preferences. She swallowed her unfinished words.

Daisy chuckled. "I know, Edward doesn't like tea." She finished Anna's sentence with a smile.

"Yes, he only drinks black coffee because of the heavy workload. He always needs something strong to stimulate him." Anna smiled in embarrassment. She didn't expect Daisy to speak her mind.

"Yes. But that's not healthy for Edward. I want him to drink some tea instead of strong coffee. Is there any good tea in store?" Daisy asked. In such a workplace that brought together the business elites of all fields, the employees must be drinking coffee everyday. She wasn't certain if they had any tea here.

"We have a variety of tea in store. When we receive guests, we need to have tea ready. I'll lead you to the tea room, Mrs. Mu."

Anna grinned. FX International Group was the leading company in S City. It never lacked luxury goods.

"Okay. Thank you." Daisy realized that the FX International Group was a large company. She shouldn't have asked if they had any tea. She flushed crimson because of her silly question.

"With pleasure, Mrs. Mu. This way, please." Anna's smile wasn't disdainful. She didn't mean to mock Daisy. Instead, she found Daisy's question cute. As a high-ranking official in the army, she could still make a fool of herself.

Daisy's tea-making technique was very good, it was well-known in the military. When Anna saw her technique, she couldn't help admiring it.

"Have you studied the tea ceremony, Mrs. Mu?" Usually, when a guest asked for a cup of tea, Anna and the other secretaries always made it casually. She never thought that tea-making could be so complicated.

"No, I haven't. I've learned something about tea-making by watching other people make tea." Daisy raised her head, smiling to Anna. Her serious face was softened by the smile.

"You are so talented, Mrs. Mu! If I didn't know that you're a soldier, I would think that with such skill, you're a tea master."

Anna's words weren't exaggerated flattery, but pure admiration. In her opinion, soldiers were all righteous, brutal, and wild. She thought that even female soldiers weren't interested in self-cultivation. But Daisy had broken her stereotype.
