Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 85 Till Death Do Us Apart

Daisy found Justin asleep when she walked in. She sat beside the bed, looking at Justin with a loving

smile on her face.

She had always thought that her little boy had never asked about his dad because it didn't matter to

him. But when she saw how excited, and eager Justin got to spend time with Edward tonight, she

realized how wrong she had been.

She realized that Justin had always wanted his dad. But he hid his desire for a father deep inside his

heart to avoid letting her down. Being so considerate at such a young age truly moved Daisy. Justin

was the only and most precious gift that God had sent to her.

Daisy extended her hand to stroke his peacefully sleeping face. Her heart filled with a flood of

emotions. She was glad to have Justin's company in the lonely life she had been leading for many

years.

Daisy bent down to kiss his forehead. She adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner before

leaving the room. As she quietly closed the door, she ran into a pair of dark deep-set eyes.

Daisy felt disconcerted for a second, and she quickly turned away to avoid the enquiring eyes.

Edward was shocked to see her ignoring him and bypassing him like he didn't even exist. He found her

growingly unpredictable. Was she playing hard-to-get with him again?

The truth is, Daisy wasn't as aloof as she appeared. She ignored him only because she didn't want him

to see the melancholy in her heart.

Edward frowned and headed to the study. His face lit up when he saw the new furniture in the study.

He didn't expect that a new desk would make the room look so warm.

Edward went to the desk and looked through the books lying on it. They were all based on military

themes. There were comments and suggestions written on every page. He discerned that Daisy had

strong opinions when it came to military matters.

As Daisy walked out of the bathroom with wet hair, she was surprised to see Edward in the study. She

thought he was downstairs having his dinner. What was he doing here?

Edward looked at her hair and frowned; then he left the room without saying anything.

Daisy wondered what mistake had she made now to offend him again. Shaking her head, she decided

not to be bothered and sat down to look into the books.

Suddenly, she sensed a soft towel covered her head, and her long wet hair were being gently rubbed.

Daisy turned around and looked at Edward in surprise.

"Don't move." Edward continued and turned her head back. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Daisy could feel the warmth of him when his fingers penetrated through her hair. Being loved by

someone felt good.

"Why are you doing this?" Daisy asked in a low voice, wondering why was he so considerate towards

her tonight.

"Why do you ask?" Edward frowned but he didn't stop rubbing her hair.

"These days you are treating me so lovingly that I'm afraid I'll get used to your kindness and become

dependent on you. So, if you don't love me, please leave me alone." Daisy said calmly. She loved the

warmth he brought, but she was afraid that he would leave her one day.

"You can depend on me. I want to have you on my side." Normally, Edward wasn't a sweet talker. But

today, was an exception.

Daisy wondered could she believe his words. The closer he got, the more panic she experienced as

she felt all of this was quite unreal.

"Edward, can I trust you?" Daisy asked him and then felt it was actually a rhetorical question.

Edward put down the towel and gently and turned her head around. His blue eyes were full of sincere

emotions. "You are special to me. I am willing to give my promise to a woman like you."

Daisy stared at him in disbelief and became speechless.

Edward kissed her gently on the lips and slowly perfected her unique beauty.

Daisy didn't expect the sudden kiss as she was still shocked by his words. She came back to her

senses when his hand swiftly sneaked into her clothes.

"Edward… No…" Daisy held back his hand that had lit a fire in her body. She was panting and begging

him to stop. They were still in the study, what if someone opened the door.

"Fine." Edward picked her up without warning and hurried to their bedroom. He knew she's shy, so he

respected her request.

When the bedroom door closed, the hot kisses fell on her body like rain. Daisy found it hard to embrace

his neck as she was savoring the waves of passion he brought.

The moonlight outside the window was flushed by the heat of their room, and it secretly hid behind the

dark clouds. The passion in the room went on as if only death could do them apart.
