"Why should I go visit your daddy?" Belinda was surprised. What was going on? Why did Leena suddenly bring that up?
"To discuss wedding plans, of course!" Leena shrugged as if she were talking about the weather.
Belinda sighed deeply. She turned to Daisy for help, but she was also stunned by Leena's unexpected speech. Could it be any worse than this? Belinda could not recall a time when she and Leena's brother got along well enough to get married with each other. Leena couldn't be serious about this. Or could she?
"Leena. You're not yourself. Are you sick? Feverish, maybe?" Belinda pressed her forehead weakly. If only she was fainted!
"No. Fit as a fiddle!" Leena smiled sweetly. She even took Belinda's hand and put it on her forehead to assure her that she was fine.
Daisy couldn't help giggling. The thought came to her that Leena would be the bane of Belinda.
"Daisy, do you have your gun? Just shoot me!" If Leena kept it up, it would only be a matter of time that Belinda married into the Leng clan. Belinda thought she might as well finish herself off before that day came.
"Alright, Leena. Quit making fun of Belinda. You're driving her crazy." Daisy had to smile and interrupted them before Belinda exploded. She took Leena away from Belinda immediately.
Belinda gave Daisy a grateful look. She really didn't know what to do with Leena. That girl was so whimsical, so unpredictable. Were she and that cool man really brother and sister? Belinda doubted it. They couldn't be more different.
"No, Daisy. I'm not making fun of her! I'm one hundred percent serious. Why don't you believe me?" Leena was depressed. It seemed that she had to work harder before Belinda officially became her sister-in-law.
"Leena, Come on. We're here for shopping. Anything you'd like to try on?" Daisy tried to distract Leena again.
"Me? I've already picked something. They'll send them to my house later. What about you, sis?" Leena asked, tilting her head.
"I don't need to buy many clothes. I barely get the chance to wear them." Daisy gently stroked Leena's head. She was such an adorable girl. No wonder that Edward would dote on her. How could she have been so wrong about what she saw between her and Edward?
"What do you mean? Sis, are you an office worker? What exactly do you do?" asked Leena curiously.
"Well. Just...a public servant." Daisy had no interest in showing off. She always kept a low profile about her job.
Just then, Daisy's phone rang. The ringtone was also a passionate military song. Daisy cast an embarrassed look at Leena and reached for her phone. However, her lips twitched when she saw the name on the screen. All of a sudden, she could only stare blankly at her phone.
"What's wrong, sis? Aren't you going to answer that?" Leena was surprised by Daisy's ringtone. A military song? Was that some kind of retro fashion?
"Y-yeah! Of course." On the screen were Edward's number and the name 'Husband'. When on earth did she make that change in her address book? She couldn't recall.
"It's me. What's the matter?" Daisy frowned and picked up the phone. She didn't realize that her voice went soft when she spoke to him.
"That took you awhile to pick up. Where are you? Justin and I will swing by and get you." Controlling the steering wheel with one hand, Edward put the earpiece in his ear with the other. He tapped the steering wheel anxiously until Daisy finally answered.
" Well, I couldn't hear the phone in my purse. Are you done so soon?" Daisy whispered while touching her hair. She slowly stepped towards a nearby bench and sat down.
"Soon? Do you know what time it is? It's almost six o'clock. Now tell me where you are. I'm on the road now." Edward pulled over and waited for Daisy to tell him where she was.
"I'm at the MY Mall, I think. I'm not sure. Do you know where the mall is?" replied Daisy while glancing at her watch. Indeed, it was about six. How strange! They had only been to a few places. She thought it had maybe been an hour only.
"MY Mall? Alright. Wait there. I'll come get you." Edward curled his lips. He knew where it was. He owned the building. Daisy probably had no idea that she was shopping at his mall.
"You don't have to come here. I can get a ride home." Daisy hesitated for a moment. She really wanted to spend some time with Belinda. She was going back to work in a few days, and that meant less time with friends.
"Just wait for me. I'll be there in no time." Edward didn't give her another chance to say no. He hung up and sped up towards the MY Mall.
Daisy was speechless. Couldn't he just hear her out? How could he just hang up on her as he had told her not to do that to him before?
"Daisy? What's wrong?" asked Belinda, noticing that Daisy didn't look well.
"Nothing. It's Edward. He's coming with Justin to pick me up." Daisy smiled, embarrassed. They had to call it a day. "What? Justin's coming? Really? I'm so I'm so excited. I've never met him before! Should I prepare a present? What does he like? Belinda's face light up when she heard Justin's name. She was sputtering excitedly like a little girl waiting to open her Christmas gift.
Justin's coming here? Wow! Cute little boy! I wanna play with him! Leena loved Justin. She especially like the contrast between his chubby face and indifferent expressions.
Daisy didn't know what to say. Was her son simply a life size doll to Leena?
" Yeah. Edward's bringing him her. In the end, Justin would go shopping with them.
Daisy's phone buzzed again. She answered and heard Edward on the other end. His words came at her in a deep and anxious voice.
