Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 210 Picture

That evening, the whole sky glowed beautifully as splendid rosy clouds could be seen from a distance.

Edward was staring at the magnificent sea, which seemed to be connecting to the glowing sky above.

After spending the whole afternoon calming himself down and looking for some peace of mind at the

fitness club, he got into his car and sat there, with all his thoughts engulfing him. He was just like a

stone statue in the shape of a man waiting for his wife. He was lonely and desolate. He was desperate.

He had no idea how long it had been since he had the opportunity to be alone like this. He believed it

was probably from the moment he began to take over this company. Ever since that day, he had

endless meetings, document signings, and social activities. There was almost no chance for him to

meditate like this.

But suddenly, his phone rang with a beautiful English song. The song finally broke the peace and

calmness. He's back into the very reality of his life right now. He frowned before picking up the phone.

But his dark eyes was instantly filled with tenderness when he saw the familiar number on his phone

screen.

"Hello! Honey, are you home now? How are you? I missed you!" Edward said while he casually looked

up at the sky. It was already getting dark outside. He realized he had been here, sitting in the car for a

very long time.

"Yeah. Will you be home late tonight? Will you have dinner at home?" This was the first time that Daisy

came back home without Edward already inside. So she felt a little uncomfortable as she was not used

to it.

"No. I am on my way now. Wait for me there, okay?" Edward gently assured her and started the car

right away. The trip might take a while as the sea was actually far from their home.

"Okay! Drive safe! We'll wait for you before we at dinner! Please take care, Edward." Then Daisy put

down her briefcase on the desk in the study room. She didn't know that her sweet voice reached

Edward's heart. Knowing that he had such a loving and caring wife, Edward's cold, icy heart began to

melt.

"You can eat if you're already hungry! Don't wait up for me. I am a little far from home right now. I think

it will take a long while for me to arrive. I'm really sorry." A slight smile showed on Edward's handsome

face. He was still fondly thinking of his wife as he was busy driving.

"Oh? You are not in town?" Daisy's hand holding the file stopped moving as she slowly sat on the chair.

A questioning look could be seen through her face. She suddenly felt a bit anxious...

"Yep! I felt a little bored and out-of-place. I went to the seaside to enjoy some fresh air. I just wanted to

relax for a while." Except for that thing with Jessica, Edward didn't mean to or tried to hide anything

from Daisy.

"You're at the seaside? What happened to you? Did something bad happen?" Daisy frowned and

decided to pause from working. She became so curious as she thought to herself, 'What on earth

happened to him? He has been so discouraged and silent for several days. Surely, something is

weighing heavily in his mind. Is there anything I don't know? Is he hiding something from me?'

"Nothing. I just felt a little stressed and wanted to blow off steam for a while. Don't worry about me.

Okay?" If tenderness was women's powerful weapon, then for men, it was the powerful declaration of

love. And at this moment, Edward was reassuring Daisy with his tenderness and love.

"All right. I'll wait for you, then. I miss you, Edward." Most of the time, people would get so crazy and

confused when they heard somebody saying those three words: "I love you." They would like to kneel

in front of the people they had feelings for and wait for their lovers' response, risking their own pride

and dignity. But at that moment, Daisy's words of "I'll wait for you" were more touching for Edward than

any other words in this world. Edward found it strange, but it was true.

Edward was driving at full speed now. Luke, whose car was behind Edward's, felt his heart almost

jumping out of his chest. He didn't know why Edward suddenly sped up. He was just sitting by the

seaside leisurely a few minutes ago. He was wondering if the man even knew that he was going too

fast now. What was Edward thinking?

At this very moment, the only thing Edward wanted to do was to hold Daisy in his arms tightly and then

kiss her so deep that both of them could hardly breathe. Edward wanted to feel how real Daisy was in

his life, and that was the only way he could do it so.

A smile was already spreading on Daisy's lovely and alluring face. Daisy found herself having a deep

attachment to Edward. The first thing she wished when she got home was to see him, then hear his

attractive voice. She wanted to feel his body, drenched with a faint smell of jasmine. The thought of it

would always relieve her of any stress she had at work.

Suddenly, a burst of the sound of her phone awakened Daisy from her wild imagination. An unknown

number again! Daisy checked the message in both curiosity and bewilderment, then her smile froze

when a zoomed picture came into view. She felt a very strong sense of bitterness and pain crawling all

over her body.

The picture was blurry, but she could easily recognize the beautiful woman in it. It was Jessica! And

Daisy was too familiar with the person who was holding Jessica in the picture as well... He just talked

with her on the phone a few minutes ago with the sweetest words. The worst thing was she believed

him all the while...

Daisy smiled to herself in an ironic manner and closed her weary eyes. The look on her face had

become indifferent when she opened her eyes again. If this was the reason why Edward was anxious

to get Daisy's promise, she would give him a chance to explain. Was this what Edward was trying to

hide from her?

For whatever reason someone sent this picture to her, Daisy didn't think it was out of goodwill. But who

sent this? Was it sent by Jessica herself? Or by someone else? How did he or she get her phone Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

number? There were a lot of questions brimming on her mind right now. But not a single answer

popped out of her mind.

Daisy hesitantly dialed the unknown number. For whatever reasons or purpose he or she sent this

picture, Daisy decided to figure it out. She would not back down from a person provoking her into

anger. She believed in the saying, "Don't offend people who didn't offend you. But if they did, fight

back."

Daisy didn't care too much before because Edward didn't promise anything to her nor intended to live

with her. Now that Edward had given her so much hope for a bright future filled with love, she would

never keep silent on this issue anymore. Her man could be only touched by herself. Any other woman

who wanted to touch Edward better ask for her fists' permission first! She would not allow it!

Daisy thought to herself right there and then, 'Edward, you'd better not disappoint me. Otherwise, I will

break your ribs into pieces. If you didn't start alluring me with a serious relationship, I would't mind. But

now that you did, you should keep our agreement in mind. Don't play with other women. My man just

belongs to me. If any woman wants to do something on you, I won't mind letting her know why some

people become bloodied. I will fight her to death, if that's necessary.'

"Hello. This is Daisy Ouyang. Who is that? Who are you?" Daisy spoke in a cold but arrogant tone. She

wanted to set the tone right away. She might look beautiful and calm on the outside, but she was

determined and vengeful on the inside.
