Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 96 Take A Shower First, And Then Go To Bed

"Mom, please, just take your darling to bed! Don't let him stand here this late."

Belinda was relieved when she finally saw her mother, Sherry. Everyone knew that her father loved her

mother very much and Belinda's mother doted on her profusely, which was why she was so wayward.

"Hey little girl, don't annoy your father, or I won't ever take your side. By the way, who was that boy

tonight? Your boyfriend? How about asking him to have dinner with us next time? Why don't you

introduce him to us? That way, your father wouldn't try to set you up on blind dates all day long." Sherry

pretended to be angry and poked Belinda's head with her finger, but her voice was very tender. Sherry

was middle-aged, but she was still very attractive.

"My lovely mother, it's late. I want to sleep now. I don't want to wake up with dark circles tomorrow

morning." Belinda grabbed Sherry's arm like a little kid and kissed her. Sherry smelt the booze on her

breath.

" Oh my! How much wine did you have?" Sherry pushed Belinda away in disgust, and thought, how

come the older she gets, the more bothersome she becomes?

"Not much. I didn't get drunk. Daisy was the one who got drunk. I got her drunk on purpose." Belinda NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

hiccuped. She was mad at Daisy because Daisy was dishonest with her. That's why Belinda

deliberately got Daisy drunk. She knew Daisy couldn't drink too much, but her husband was also there.

Didn't they realize that alcohol can be an aphrodisiac? She was trying to help them, and let them have

a chance to get laid!

"What? Are you still in touch with Daisy? How's she doing now? We haven't seen her for the longest

time. How about asking her to have dinner with us next time?" Sherry felt sorry, thinking about Daisy.

No one could imagine that Daisy, a girl who was nothing short of a beautiful princess would be treated

like a slave by her step-mother.

"My dear mom, Why do you always want to invite people to have dinner with us?" I am really

exhausted right now. Can we talk about this later?" Right now, Belinda just wanted to take a shower

and go to bed. That way she would be active and ready to hang out with Daisy tomorrow. Belinda had

thought her mother was her hero, but she was way more annoying than her father.

Zachary didn't utter a word when Sherry was present, because he knew it was useless to say anything

in front of the two women. After all, women made all the rules in this house. Then why bother to say

anything?

"Oh, you silly girl, fine, just go, but don't forget to tell me tomorrow." Since Belinda was tired, Sherry

was reluctant to ask her again. Anyway, there would be plenty of time tomorrow.

"Thanks, mom. Hey, dad, you'd better take your wife to bed!" Belinda said and made faces at her

parents. Then happily she ran upstairs.

"Look, at your baby girl." Zachary helplessly looked at Belinda and said to Sherry disappointedly. He

hadn't asked the most important questions yet! And Belinda just slipped away like that.

"That's your daughter too!" Speaking of their baby girl, Zachary couldn't do anything to hurt her either

so he couldn't blame Sherry alone.

"Forget it. Let's go to bed! We can talk about it tomorrow." Looking upstairs again, Zachary reluctantly

guided Sherry to their bedroom.

It was a beautiful night where the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers. Edward held Daisy in

his arms and tenderly put her on the bed. When he was about to leave, he heard her mumbling.

"Edward... you... you jerk." Daisy was murmuring in her sleep. She threw aside the quilt that he had put

on her and then she went back to sleep.

Edward curled his lips, and thought, how angry is this woman tonight? He couldn't believe that she was

scolding him even in her sleep. He hasn't accused her yet. How could she scold him first?

When he thought of it, he smiled and came close to her lips. He kissed her hard on the lips. He was

reluctant to stop kissing her until she was hurt. He gently touched her lips where the teeth-marks

formed, and then stood up contentedly. He just stood there and gracefully started to unbutton his shirt,

which he later threw on the couch. After that, he took off his trousers and walked towards the bathroom

in a pair of sexy briefs. How could she scold him first?

Edward had a handsome face, eight-pack abs, perfect pecs and was extremely well-built, which made

him all the more desirable. He turned on the tap, and the cold water immediately sprinkled on his hot

body.

Edward was an easygoing person and lived as he liked. He never thought that he would fall in love with

a woman one day. But now, Edward couldn't help gazing at her, touching her, and being jealous

because of that one name. Yes, he was jealous, and so he kept drinking until he was totally drunk,

trying to comfort himself with alcohol.

Edward wanted to find out if Daisy loved him or not, but he didn't know how to say that out loud. He

was afraid to hear the answer, so he forced himself not to think about it.

Edward ruffled his short-hair, trying to quit thinking about all this. He turned off the tap and wrapped a

bath towel around his waist. Then, he walked to the bathtub and poured water into it.

By the time Edward got back, Daisy was sound asleep, with no sign of waking up any time soon.

"Babe, wake up, let's take a shower before you go to bed." Edward gently held her up and smoothed

her messy long-hair.

"No... I want to sleep. I... I feel so dizzy!" Daisy murmured. Her cold voice turned soft now.

"No, take a shower first, and then go to bed." Edward insisted, and held her up again.

"But I don't want to move" After Edward's long and persistent efforts, Daisy finally woke up a little bit

but she wasn't sober because she had too much to drink tonight. Her soft body leaned on his bare

chest. Smelling a familiar fragrance of jasmine, Daisy took a deep breath and held a comfortable

position in his arms.
