It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 169

"Bullshit. As far as I know Belinda, she wouldn't follow you willingly. I'm assuming you have played some trick on her. You should be thankful to God that Belinda didn't kick your ass." Edward knew very well that Duke was the kind of man who would go to any lengths in order to reach his goals! So how did he play his typical tricks on Belinda?

"Is it so obvious?" Duke didn't deny Edward's claim, he just gave an evil smile. Edward had seen through him and Duke knew that sometimes it seemed fishier when people try too hard to hide something.

"What do you think?" Edward smiled noncommittally and walked into the house, leaving Duke behind!

Duke stroked his hair in anxiety, he wasn't satisfied with Edward's halfhearted reply. He had no option but to follow Edward to the house.

Leena didn't react much when she saw Rain come in. In contrast, she overreacted when she saw Daisy come in with Belinda chasing after her. Oh my god! She thought. 'Why does Belinda come here? Does that mean Mr. Cold is also here?'

"Belinda, what brings you here?" Asked Leena, with a look of surprise. Belinda was trying to explain something to Daisy.

"I will deal with you later." Belinda glared at Leena and said, which made Leena tremble with fear. She thought: 'Oh my God! Belinda is so aggressive!'

"Daisy. I really wanted to tell you, but I was scared you'll mock me, ok? And I was too embarrassed to tell you immediately. Don't be angry with me, please." Belinda had no time for Leena the troublemaker. The first thing she needed to do was to make peace with Daisy who seemed as cold as an iceberg.

"I am not angry with you. I am just disappointed." Daisy walked straight into the kitchen without stopping to hear Belinda.

"Mrs. Mu. You are back? Dinner will be ready in a minute. And who's this young lady..." Mrs. Wu stopped her work when she saw Daisy coming in. She hesitated for a moment when she saw Belinda, not knowing how to address her.

"Mrs. Wu, she's Belinda, Duke's new bride. You can call her Mrs. Leng." Belinda knew Daisy was still mad at her by the tone in which Daisy introduced her. That was blatant vengeance!

"Uh! Well…… Mrs. Wu. You can call me Belinda." Belinda felt uncomfortable! How could Daisy treat her like this? Belinda thought to herself. Mrs. Leng? What had gotten into Daisy?

Mrs. Wu looked at them in confusion. She didn't know what was going on. The problem was she had no idea how to address Belinda. She knew Duke because Duke used to visit here often. But it was the first time she saw Belinda.

"Mrs. Wu. Is there something in the fridge that I can cook? We have guests here. I need to serve more food." Daisy turned to talk to Mrs. Wu. She was looking at the dishes prepared by Mrs. Wu. She completely ignored Belinda's presence.

"Yes, there is. Mrs. Mu. You can entertain the guests! I will take care of it." Mrs. Wu looked at Daisy who seemed exhausted. She didn't want her to toil in the kitchen after a long day's work at the army base.

"I'm fine. It would be better if I give you a hand. Can you please fetch the ingredients for me?" Daisy said while putting on the apron. She glanced at Belinda with a faint smile on her lips.

"Daisy, could you stop being mad at me? I can't go back in time, if I could, I would get married all over again, and inform you right away. But if I had the power, I would not be set up by Duke again." Belinda begged Daisy, who seemed indifferent. With a sad look on her beautiful face, she thought to herself: 'Your temper has gone worse than before!'

"Puff! I will forgive you if you show me how to travel back in time." Daisy could not help chuckling when she heard Belinda's ridiculous plea. She finally decided to stop teasing her.

"Great! You bad girl. You was bluffing! You had me worried to death. I'll punish you for this." Belinda said and lunged at Daisy, it seemed like she would tear Daisy into pieces.

Daisy was trying to withdraw from her grip. Soon they began frolicking in the small kitchen. On the other hand, Leena was still sitting disconcerted in the living room.

"Hehe. Brother. Why are you here?" Leena asked Duke with a coaxing smile. She moved towards Rain. On my god! Leena thought: 'Is it necessary for Duke to make such a gloomy and scary face! Why is he still furious after so many days! It is clear that he doesn't intend to let me go!'

"Why? You quit running?" Duke could easily switch his mood to the mode he wanted. He could become cold in a second. Undoubtedly, the people around him could feel this strong cold air, like it was coming from hell. Leena was suffering because of his cold behavior. Her tender heart was hurting.

"I didn't run! I was just out of the country." Leena murmured, with her head down. She was too afraid to look at him.

"Yes! So when you came back you landed here! You couldn't find your home, could you?" Duke snorted. In reality, he was pretending to be angry just to frighten her. His anger had evaporated a long time ago. Duke behaved like this in order to stop Leena from getting out of control in future.

"Hehe! That was because I heard you had just married Belinda. I came here for a couple of days to give you and Belinda some space." Leena sure was a smart elf. From the way Duke spoke to her, she realized that Duke had forgiven her, so she took the golden chance and jumped into her brother's arms. Leena acted like a spoiled child, which always worked on Duke.

"Girl, are you that kindhearted? Huh! Don't try to deceive me. I know all your tricks. Huh!" Duke poked Leena's forehead. He couldn't do anything about her. He could just accept that he had such a cute sister.
