Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 79 When Did You Get Married

Daisy saw Edward and that woman locked in an embrace, and immediately lost her composure. She

turned around so she wouldn't see them. Her cold face became even paler, if that were possible.

She deliberated whether she should stick around. She took a deep breath and sighed. 'You've outdone

yourself this time, Daisy.' she thought. 'You're dreaming! This noble and handsome man can't be true to

you.' Daisy said to herself, to her heart.

"Mommy, what's up?" Justin followed Daisy out of the car. He looked at Daisy's pale face, followed her

gaze, and then knew why she was pale. Tears formed in his eyes. He thought, 'Mr. Edward, you hurt

my mom again. I was stupid to trust you.'

"Nothing. Let's go." Daisy replied. She held his tender little hand and left without hesitation. Her hair

and dress flowed behind her, billowing with the speed of her steps. She was done. There was nothing

left here for her to hold on to.

Edward was totally unaware of what Daisy was doing. He called Duke. Leena freed herself, standing

between him and the car.

"Duke, it's all good. Leena's with me. You'll see her soon." Edward looked at Leena. She leaned

towards him and laughed. He felt helpless.

"What? You found her? Where is she? I'll be right there!" Duke couldn't stand waiting any longer. He

was very angry and eager to teach a lesson to Leena, the little runaway.

"Nah Duke. We're getting fed. I'll give you the address of the restaurant. You can meet us there."

Edward read off the address and then immediately hung up before Duke could object.

"Was Mr. Cold very angry with me?" Leena asked, concern in her voice. 'Mr. Cold' was her nickname

for Duke, because he was always cold. Duke was such a cold person that even his sister Leena

couldn't stand him.

"Probably. You know how much he loves you, and you made him worry. You're gonna get it when he

gets here." Edward had been on the receiving end of Duke's anger. He didn't want to do that again.

"Edward, you can't leave me alone with Duke. I'll go crazy from his nagging." Ha! If Duke knew how

she had spent last night, sleeping with a stranger, it might even go worse for her.

"Leena, are you afraid of Duke? Not only did you sneak off, you also walked around alone on the

streets. What if you ran into trouble?" Edward poked her forehead. His words were harsh, but he said

them in a caring manner.

"Huh! I'm not scared. I just don't want to be annoyed by him." But, in fact, she already met a bad guy.

She seduced him, true, but he took her virginity.

"Okay, but I'm not defending you when Duke gets here. Let's go! We'll hit a restaurant and you can

meet my wife." When he said her name, Edward's mood lifted. He smiled and thought that Daisy might

also like this lovely lady.

"Wow! When did you get married? You didn't even tell me!" Leena followed Edward. 'So I missed their

wedding ceremony. Did he not invite me on purpose?' Leena thought.

"Aren't I telling you right now?" Edward mocked. He really never thought about being married himself

until recently. So it was impossible for Leena to have known.

"Huh! You're so mean. You didn't invite me to your wedding ceremony." Leena complained. And

pouted.

"Okay, we'll make up for that tonight. You can drink as much as you want." Edward opened the car

door, and his smile faded. He shot a look to the back seat but didn't see any one there. He was seized

by a sudden panic and looked around. But he didn't see Daisy and Justin anywhere.

Edward ran here and there to look for them but still found nothing. He dialed Daisy's number, but she

had left it here, vibrating and glowing as brightly as ever. It was as if the cellphone were mocking him.

Look how embarrassed he was now. He suddenly couldn't think of anything, and his face was very

pale.

"Edward, what's going on?" Leena was surprised at his actions. Wasn't he going to introduce his wife to

her?

Edward realized that Leena had been with him the whole time. His blood went cold. He pounded the

car in regret. 'Shit! Daisy must have seen me and Leena holding each other. She must have

misunderstood, otherwise she'd still be here. I didn't even get a chance to explain.' Edward thought.

"I'm okay. Leena. Change of plans, sorry. Your brother can pick you up here." Edward regained his

calmness. He knew he should be able to clear this up with Daisy if he didn't lose his head.

He dialed up Luke. "Hello, Luke. I found Leena. Find Miss Daisy and Justin. Tell Aaron too." Edward

finally regained his shrewd business acumen.

"Okay, Mr. Edward. But isn't Miss Daisy with you now? What happened?" Luke was a little confused.

He wondered why Daisy would suddenly disappear. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Well... It's difficult to explain. Just do as I ask." Edward's eyes flashed, he felt a little embarrassed. So

he would be blamed for Daisy's disappearance.

"Gotcha. Will do." Luke was helpless. He couldn't think of any other place Daisy could go besides the

military base. He could go there and wait for her.

Edward was in no mood to ask Luke about it. He called Duke and requested he pick up Leena. He was

eager to go home to see whether Daisy and Justin were already there. Or so he hoped. He wasn't sure

what to do if they weren't.

This was not his day.
