Chapter 704 Male Confidant (Part One)


    "How''s the call? Got in touch with Duke? What did he say?" asked Daisy hastily. She was very anxious


    for Belinda, who was so drunk and couldn''t keep her consciousness at the moment. So Daisy had to


    hold her hand out to support Belinda, while Belinda was leaning almost her entire body on Daisy. On


    the other hand, Daisy really didn''t know what to do with this drunken girl if Duke was not going to show


    up tonight. She just might have to take Belinda home with her. But if so, Belinda would definitely feel


    embarrassed when she finally woke up.


    "Yep! Don''t worry! Duke will be here in a minute. Let''s get Belinda into the car first," answered Edward.


    Then he reached out and pulled the door open, signaling Daisy to put Belinda into his car.


    "No need. Since Duke ising soon, I think it''s better to let her stay outside and catch some wind


    through her. It should help reduce her drunkenness and hopefully, get her a little consciousness.


    Besides, it could also blow away the alcohol smell a bit. So it''s not necessary to encounter so much


    trouble putting her in," said Daisy. As she saw Belinda''s charming big wavy hair drifting in front of her


    face, Daisy reached out and tucked it to the back of Belinda''s ears. She then took a look at the street to


    check if Duke wasing.


    "OK. But I''m worried that you might get tired holding Belinda for too long," said Edward. Since Belinda


    was Duke''s wife, it would be quite inappropriate for Edward to hold her instead. So there was really


    nothing else he could do to help Daisy but to watch Belinda lying her tiny body almost entirely on Daisy.


    "It''s OK. Just holding her tiny body is not going to tire me," replied Daisy. It was true that Belinda''s


    weight almost meant nothing to Daisy. The weight she usually carried during her daily training was


    always much heavier than this, more than twice the weight of Belinda. After getting used to holding


    much heavier things, holding someone as tiny as Belinda was easy.


    "Edward, is my brother still mad?" asked Leena expectantly. She was kind of hoping that Mr. Cold


    would not be angry anymore. After all, her greatest wish was the harmony of her family. She wanted


    everyone to get along so that no one would be pissed off.


    "Then maybe you should stay so you could see it yourself," said Edward sarcastically. He lowered his


    eyes and took a quick peek at her, cracking out a tiny smile on his lips without Leena''s noticing.


    "No! He''s so frightening when he gets mad," said Leena. She couldn''t help trembling and shrinking her


    neck a little while thinking of how scary Mr. Cold could be when he was in a rage. Suddenly she


    realized how lucky she was to be a marrieddy. She could at least have a handy excuse to go home


    in situations like this without needing to face Mr. Cold''s anger. Probably marriage was a good thing for


    her, which made her have to go home anyways.


    "Luke, it''s better that you drive Leena back to her home now," ordered Edward, while waving at Luke,


    who was standing beside another car. Frankly speaking, he would feel quite worried if Leena was going


    home alone. Asking Luke to take her home would be a much better option.


    "Actually, you don''t need to do that. I believe I can go back by myself," said Leena. To be honest,


    Leena didn''t like to be treated as a baby by everyone. Their tenderness was not bad but it would make


    her feel like she were still a little girl, which was not good. She wanted to be a maturedy.


    "It''ste. It will make us worried if you''re going back alone. So just let Luke drive you home. Your safety


    is the most important thing," insisted Daisy. After all, Kevin wasn''t at home right now, so it would be

    Edward''s and her responsibility to take good care of this little girl, their lovely baby sister.


    "Ms. Leng, let''s go now," said Luke. He drove the car beside Leena, and gentlemanly opened the door


    for her.


    "OK. Then I''ll leave now. The mess here has been handed to you already. Bye-bye!" said Leena,


    blinking her eyes at them. She got on Luke''s car pleasantly, waved Daisy and Edward goodbye, then


    closed the door. She let out a long exhale. Finally, she was leaving. It was a relief because she wouldn''t


    have to face Mr. Cold tonight. No chance for him to vent his wrath at her. Well at least not for tonight.


    Some dayster and Mr. Cold''s anger would drain away. There would be nothing serious to worry


    about by then.


    "Leena is very prescient," said Daisy with a smile on her face. She watched the car Leena was in until


    she couldn''t see it anymore. Then she turned to Edward and gave him a look that told him how


    helpless she got when dealing with the mischievous little girl.


    "Right! She''s smart and unpredictable but sometimes a little bit too naughty," replied Edward. Then he


    turned to smile at Daisy. His fingers gently fixed her hair upon noticing how the wind blew it into a


    mess. He was being tender but inside his head, he was actually thinking about that Zemo Ling guy,


    about who he was, and what he had to do with Daisy.


    "Who''s making so much noise?!"ined Belinda, who was now feeling a little restless as she


    waved her arms casually like she was still on the dance floor. She had drunk a few sses of wine


    before going to dance. Then she continued pouring the wine down to her throat aftering back from


    the dance floor. Though Daisy snatched that wine bottleter, she had already killed half of it. Thus she


    was very drunk and was falling asleep with her eyes half closed right now.


    "Hold on just a moment. Duke will be here in a minute," said Daisy. She grabbed Belinda''s arms which


    were still waving crazily. There was a slight sorrow that got into her heart. She frowned unconsciously


    to it, which wrinkled her smooth forehead.


    "Give her some water," said Edward. He took a bottle of water from the car without anyone noticing


    then unscrewed the lid. He then handed the bottle to Daisy.


    "Belinda, take a sip of the water," said Daisy. She took the bottle from Edward and moved it close to


    Belinda''s mouth. She carefully gave her a sip of water. It was then that the sound of a car braked to a


    halt shrilled through their ears. Concern was all over Duke''s face when he got off the car and walked to


    them in a hurry.


    "Not bad. You''ve got here fast enough," said Edward sarcastically. As a man himself, he had known too


    well what a man would think at this moment. He knew exactly what Duke was thinking. So he turned to


    Duke and blinked his eyes, then he yfully made a gesture with his lips toward the direction where


    Belinda was standing now.
