Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 132 We Were Being Impulsive

Rain looked at Belinda in appreciation and smiled charmingly. Seeing how much she valued friendship,

he realized that he had underestimated her before. He had considered her as a bossy and self-

centered girl from a wealthy family. What he saw today was unexpected. He cheered her on in heart,

'Bravo Belinda! I like Daisy too.'

"When did I offend Daisy?" said Mary as she looked at Edward as if to check if he still remembered her

existence.

"Didn't you? Then why did she slap you?" responded Belinda, without considering the outcome of what

she said.

"No way! Belinda, are you sure you are talking about Daisy?" Rain was surprised that a calm person This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

like Daisy would slap someone.

"So, you two have seen each other," said Edward, sounding irresistible. His handsome face darkened,

as he glanced at Mary and Belinda.

Mary had thought that Daisy had disappeared since her wedding night. They had been out of touch

with each other, and the private detective failed to find her whereabouts. But now she sensed that

wasn't the case. Hearing Edward's words, she looked at the group in panic. Moreover, Edward seemed

concerned about her. Mary wondered whether there was something that she didn't know.

"What? Has everyone gone dumb suddenly?" said Edward, brows raised. "Weren't you all speaking

continually just now?" Something serious must have happened if Daisy got furious enough to slap

someone. He was worried, although he knew she could take care of herself.

Belinda turned to Duke for help. She had forgotten that Daisy fought with Mary because of her. 'Why

did I blurt it out like that?' Although Mary didn't get hurt, speaking it out would still put Belinda at a

disadvantage since Edward seemed to like Mary so much now.

Duke smiled viciously and thought, 'So now, you notice my existence and decide to ask for my help?

But it is too late now, so be prepared to get a glimpse of Mr. Edward's temper.' She had thought

Edward was kind and cultured. But in reality, even Duke got scared when Edward was mad.

"Haha. Nothing serious. We were being impulsive and wanted to practice our fighting skills on

someone," Belinda joked about it. Then she rolled her beautiful eyes at Duke. 'Wicked Duke! I can't

believe you didn't help me!'

"Yes, Edward. We were too excited to see each other after such a long time." Mary was perceptive.

She noticed that Edward still cared about Daisy, although she didn't know why. So when she heard

what Belinda had said, she immediately took the chance to fix the situation and ignored Belinda's

verbal attack.

Edward frowned a little, eyes still on Belinda and Mary as if attempting to find some proof of their lies.

Rain was amused, looking at Belinda, who was almost leaning into the bowl in front of her. Belinda had

never yielded. From the day he knew her, she had made people like Edward and Mary miserable every

time she saw them. This was the first time he saw her being docile.

"Edward, let it go. If you keep staring, someone is going to eat with her nose." Duke decided to help

Belinda at last, worrying that she might get a stomachache later.

Hearing Duke's words, Edward withdrew his watch from Mary and Belinda. They finished the meal in

peace. Belinda had forgotten what had happened between Duke and her. Her phone rang just when

they were about to leave.

"Hi, Daisy. Everything OK?" She was wondering why Daisy didn't call her husband instead.

Hearing his wife's name, Edward sat back on the chair and squinted his eyes, thinking, 'Daisy, you

have the time to call insane Belinda but you don't have the time to call your own husband. Well done!'

"I'm fine. I am just wondering how is everything going between you and Duke?" Daisy had been

thinking about it for a long time. Afraid that Belinda might be too embarrassed to reply, she had waited

for quite a while to ask.

"Daisy, when did you become so gossipy? I think you have a lot of free time. Please find something to

do!" Belinda blamed Daisy in her heart for bringing up the issue. The fight with Mary had almost made

her forget about it, but Daisy's phone call ruined her good mood.

"That's because I care about you. Besides, I am swamped. I had been in the meeting room the whole

morning. I have to do my work even during my holidays. I haven't eaten my breakfast yet!"

Daisy was telling the truth. All the battalions had applied to buy new equipment to enhance their

position in the army. The whole morning they had been discussing which battalion should be granted.

When the plan had finally been decided, she was given piles of files to deal with, which had kept her so

occupied that she wasn't able to squeeze out time for the breakfast Mark brought for her from the

canteen.

"What?! It's so late and you haven't had breakfast yet?" shouted Belinda after looking at her watch.

"Why are you working so hard?" As soon as she finished that sentence, her mobile was taken away.

"I can't take a break yet. It seems that I will be too occupied to go home tonight, let alone eat." Daisy

was still busy with the files while she was talking until she heard the bitter words from the other side of

the phone. She was shocked.
