"Daisy, since you have time to make a phone call, how come you don't have time to eat?" Edward scolded her over the phone. He was worried. 'Is this how she takes care of herself? Doesn't she know what time it is?'
"Er... Edward! I think there is something wrong with the phone. I was talking to Belinda. How did you get through?" Daisy checked her phone to ensure that she had dialed the right number. The number was right. Then how come her despicable husband was speaking on the phone? She didn't get it. 'Haha, sounds like somebody is still mad about this morning's hickey' he gloated secretly.
"If I tell you I can hide underground, will you believe it?" Edward answered sulkily, disregarding the spectators. Belinda tried to snatch her phone back, but Duke stopped her. She stood there, looking at him furiously.
"Can you? If you say you can, I'll believe you." Daisy couldn't help but think, 'Damn, what's making him angry this time? And how did he get Belinda's phone?'
"Do you think you would still be able to talk to me so calmly if I could?" Edward replied coldly. He was unhappy, but his wife wasn't afraid of him, and she continued to provoke him.
"Then what?" Daisy stopped working and leaned back in the chair to relax.
"I will throw you on the bed and fiercely teach you a lesson." Edward was indeed atrocious and brazen to say something like that in front of so many people.
Mary raised her head resentfully and thought, 'How can he love Daisy so much when they haven't seen each other since their wedding night? Why are they so intimate?'
"Edward, you are a bloody shameless man!" Daisy cursed and blushed. "Shameless? I will show you tonight how shameless I can get." When he finished that sentence, everyone went silent. Even a playboy like Rain secretly applauded him. Only Edward could say such lewd words and act as if nothing had happened.
"Er..." Daisy didn't know what to say. She was convinced that Edward was a vile man hiding under the facade of a gentleman. "Go and have something to eat. If some part of your body gets smaller. I will reckon with you." The others felt extremely awkward on hearing his words.
They believed Daisy would have punched him hard if she were here. After all, she had a reputation to protect. If she saw how many people had heard Edward, she would have shot herself immediately.
"Edward, you are such a pervert. I don't want to talk to you anymore." Daisy's face turned red with embarrassment. Fortunately, she was alone in the office.
"Yes, I am a pervert but only with you. I don't say such dirty words to anyone else." It seemed that Edward wasn't going to stop until he had abundantly demonstrated his brazenness. He didn't mind the others at all. Thank God, Leena wasn't here. Otherwise, she would have worshiped him like crazy. Belinda rolled her eyes repeatedly. No wonder Duke was shameless too! Now she knew where he had learned it!
"Edward, will you die if you quit talking like that? Please hang up! I have to work." Daisy didn't want to waste time anymore and opened the file on her desk. She had to inspect the training field in the afternoon. "OK, but first eat something. I will call you when I reach office."
After hanging up the phone, he threw it to Belinda, who was still in a daze. Duke caught it in time before it hit the floor. "Edward, have you lost your mind? First, you snatched my phone, and now you are trying to destroy it!" Belinda took her phone, put it to her ear and said hello.
"I hung up, " said Edward. Seeing the confusion on her face, Edward couldn't believe this was the same CEO who had been so pushy during the negotiations.
"What? Why did you hang up? I wanted to talk to her." Belinda lowered her head dejectedly. She didn't know how to tell Daisy about Duke's proposal. Great. Now Edward had hung up the phone before she could try.
"She's busy. You can call her in the evening, " said Edward. Then he stepped out and didn't notice whether the others were following him or not.
Belinda made a face at Edward. 'What? Busy? She wasn't busy when he was on the phone. When I wanted to talk, she suddenly got busy? Apparently, he didn't want me to disturb Daisy, for fear that she won't be able to finish her work and will stay in the office all night. That's all he cared about. What a noble excuse!'
Mary felt sad and frustrated. She wished that Edward had said those words to her instead of Daisy. 'Daisy, why do you get everything? You have wealth, and you are beautiful. Isn't that enough? How could you marry the most amazing man in the city so easily while I have to rack my brains to get an ounce of his attention?'
Duke held Belinda's hand and followed Edward with a vicious smile. He ignored Rain whose jaw had dropped with surprise. Belinda glared at Duke and tried to break but to no avail. She had to give up.
Rain didn't know about Leena drugging Belinda. He sensed something fishy was going on with Duke and Belinda. He laughed weirdly, watching them leave hand in hand.
Daisy looked at the cold food. A smile appeared on her face when she thought of Edward's concern. She reached for the food for the food and decided to eat. Or someone would be unhappy again.
