It'll Come Naturally

Chapter 152 Your Family Has Been My Family

Belinda was standing outside her house; she had no intention of going in. She had been dawdling away her time at the office after finishing her work. She reluctantly headed downstairs because she knew that the outcome wouldn't be delightful. She had no idea what Duke had told her father. She met Duke the iceberg man over there, he brought a cool feeling to the hot day!

"Belinda, those who know you would think you are going home, but those who don't know you might think you are about to climb the wall." Duke looked at Belinda snidely, because he had never seen anyone hesitate to enter his or her own house. He thought, it's okay for her to embarrass herself, but he shouldn't waste his time standing outside the house like a fool.

"What! Climb the wall? Duke, do you know what that means? Please, don't judge me if you don't know me. People would laugh at me." Belinda said and rolled her eyes impatiently. If her father hadn't said that she couldn't come back home unless she brought Duke with her, she wouldn't have been trapped in this situation.

"Standing outside like this was far more embarrassing than being laughed at by others." Duke gave Belinda a frigid glance, which made her frightened. Usually, Belinda wasn't afraid of anything, but she was scared of his indifference.

"Duke, are you sure you should go inside? Are you confident that my dad won't chase you out ?" Belinda didn't believe in compromising. Although she expected the answer she still had to give it a try. He might have changed his mind.

Duke didn't reply to her instead he went straight inside the villa. He decided not to waste his time standing there discussing the problem. It was much easier to just walk inside. He wondered, is it disgraceful for her to introduce Duke to her family? And hiding was the worst option.

"Hey! Duke, are you sure you want to go inside? Hey, why don't you fucking wait for me!" Belinda didn't anticipate that Duke would go inside without telling her. In a panic, she hastened to follow him and

pounced onto his back when Duke paused all of a sudden.

"Belinda, if you say another vulgar word, I won't mind cleaning your mouth for you." Duke didn't understand how a lady of noble birth could say such dirty words.

"Uh! Duke, you have no sense of humor."

Belinda rolled her eyes desperately and thought: oh my god! Why did she feel so stressful at the thought of her future life with Duke?

"Hehe! Duke! I had never imagined that we could become a family. Last time I saw your father, I was wondering how I'll introduce you to my daughter. I am surprised to see that you two are moving faster than I thought."

Zachary knew Duke well. His sly smile didn't leave his face since he found that Duke was dating his daughter. Duke was the most eligible bachelor in S City! And surprisingly, his daughter had won Duke's heart. In his mind, Zachary started measuring the benefits he could get from this relationship. He didn't care much about the fact that his daughter was with Duke so early in the morning.

As all the mothers-in-law do, the longer Sherry looked at Duke, the more she liked him. Although Duke was indifferent in nature, she thought it was barely worth mentioning as long as he could control Belinda. Sherry really liked her handsome and cool son-in-law. Because nowhere else could she find such a good match like Duke for her daughter! Sherry blamed her daughter for not introducing them to Duke earlier. Her father could have stopped worrying and arranging blind dates for her.

"Dad, I feel sorry for being so inconsiderate and not visiting you earlier." Duke didn't feel awkward to address Belinda's father in this way, but Belinda had a problem with this.

"Hey! Duke. Are you drunk? This is my dad. Since when did he become your dad?" Belinda said and stared at Duke irritably. How easy it was for Duke to form an alliance with other people, she thought.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Who was he calling dad? His dad was at his own house.

"From the moment our marriage contract commenced, your family has been my family. I don't think it's inappropriate for me to address him in this way." Duke had a strong personality, but he was tender when it came to family matters. Once he was sure about something, he would cut to the chase without any pretense.

"Hehe! You called me appropriately Duke. Let her be. She's just jealous." Sherry was still studying Duke. See! Like she said, only a man like Duke could win over Belinda. If it had been any other man, Belinda wouldn't have behaved so graciously.

"Mom. I am sorry. Don't laugh at me, please." Duke got emotional when he said "mom". He forgot how long it had been since he had said this warm word. He never thought he could say this word again, he felt warm in Sherry's company.

"That's fine. I should thank you for tolerating my daughter's bad temper. You must have known about her temper, I presume. I'm afraid you'll have to bear with her perpetually." Sherry carried herself with elegance and dignity. In comparison, her daughter Belinda was quite weird. Sometimes she felt helpless because of this, but she had to accept it since Sherry had spoiled Belinda herself.

"Mom, what do you mean? Don't you think I have a good personality? Don't you see he put on that poker face all the time? The truth is it's me who would bear with him!"

At that moment Belinda had forgotten what she always insisted. Typically, she didn't entertain the idea of putting herself and Duke together.

Duke smiled slightly and thought Belinda was a hypocrite. The truth was that she had become aware of her new identity, but she still tried to mess up things. This was not like her at all.

"Oh Belinda, just look at you. How could you complain about Duke? You should feel lucky that Duke doesn't disapprove of you." Everyone knew about Duke's good reputation. He was the most eligible son-in-law for the rich wives in S City. Sherry didn't have any high hopes for her daughter. Now that Duke had become her son-in-law, she was on cloud nine.
