Chapter 369 The Romantic Date


    "Fine. Let''s not talk about the baby. But please meet me. I have to discuss something important with


    you, "


    Jessica implored while biting her lower lip. She had never been so humble in her life. She knew that


    this was herst chance. If she missed it, she would be in a more embarrassing situation, so she


    discarded her usual haughty attitude and pretended not to feel her aching heart. Besides, when it came


    to Edward, her pride always got undermined.


    "We can talk on the phone. You have five minutes." Edward raised his voice a bit. Daisy, who had been


    sleeping in the passenger''s seat, was awakened by his voice.


    "Have we arrived? Oh, you are on the phone." Daisy sluggishly looked at Edward with droopy eyes.


    She looked innocent, adorable and feminine.


    "Not yet. Go back to sleep. It''s not an important call. Did I wake you?" Edward said gently, totally


    ignoring the person on the other end of the phone.


    Hearing what Edward had said to Daisy, Jessica''s expression changed unwittingly. She knew that he


    was with Daisy in his car. She remembered that he used to talk to her in that gentle tone back then.


    She used to stay in his arms like a spoiled child. There was a time when she was the happy woman


    sitting in the passenger''s seat next to Edward. But now, she was nothing to him.


    Bygones were bygones. Jessica was just a meaningless fling to Edward. She closed her eyes in grief


    and listened to him affectionately talking to another woman. Her heart was bleeding.


    She hung up the phone in silence, tears streaming down her pretty cheeks. Right now, there was only


    one person in Edward''s heart -Daisy. Jessica was in no ce to talk. Whether what she had heard was


    an act or not, she had lost herst bit of confidence.


    Jessica sat on the chair helplessly. Her youth, her love, and her upper-ss lifestyle had all gone, for


    nothing. Her years of love and obsession for Edward eventually lost to Daisy.


    She sneered. She used to think that she was special to him, that was why she never believed it when


    people used to say that the CEO of FX International Group was insensitive and ruthless. But now,


    seeing how he treated Daisy, she realized that it was true. He could be so cold and cruel to the people


    he didn''t care about while doting on the woman he loved. He had never treated anybody the way he


    had treated Daisy. Hard to believe. But since Jessica had seen it so many times, she had to ept the


    fact that Edward was really in love with Daisy. He wasn''t seeking a fling in Daisy.


    Edward heard the beep on the phone. He made a sinister smile and thought, ''Good. Jessica, you


    should realize your worth. Don''t me me for being cruel. You shouldn''t have fought a hopeless battle.


    You broke the rules of the game, and now you are reaping the bitter fruits of your mistakes. In love, I''m


    neither a phnthropist nor a monopolizer. I''m just a man trying to be faithful to the woman I love.''


    "Aren''t we going home?" Daisy asked, while withdrawing her eyes from the view outside the car


    window. Edward smiled mischievously. Daisy looked at him with her head tilted and thought he might


    be considering something naughty, which was typical of him.

    "We''ll eat out tonight. Let''s go on a romantic date, like other couples." Edward turned to Daisy and


    gave her a warm smile. Justin was growing up, but they had never been on a date. It was a pity and


    Edward med himself for it. He resolved to make up for it in the future.


    "Are we? I was thinking about making dinner for your parents. I was too busy to do it before, but now


    that I have time I feel awful for not doing it."


    Daisy frowned. She was longing to be alone with Edward, but as a daughter-inw, she felt obliged to


    spend time with Edward''s parents. Moreover, she hoped she could help Edward to get along with his


    parents. In her opinion, their biggest problem wasck ofmunication and interaction. If they could


    spend more time together, they would have a better rtionship.


    "Don''t worry. They will understand." Edward sneered. Since he thought Jonathan didn''t like Edward, he


    never cared for family courtesy and gave no importance to such formalities in his carefree life. So


    Edward was sure that his parents wouldn''t mind if he and Daisy went out to spend a romantic evening


    alone.


    They went to a Western restaurant, the decor of which was unique. Edward pulled his Maybach, into


    the parking lot and then they went in. The food and atmosphere of the restaurant were excellent. It was


    an ideal ce for lovers. Edward had been there a couple of times, for business. This was his first date


    here.


    Edward and Daisy intimately walked inside arm-in-arm. Wherever Edward went, he was the center of


    women''s attention. But today, not only women but also men were attracted. Men marveled at Daisy, the


    perfect creature of elegance and aloofness, whom they could just admire from afar.


    "Let''s sit here." Daisy picked a window seat. She preferred seats with a wide view, from where she


    could clearly see everything. Maybe it was because of her profession.


    "OK. As you say, honey." Edward usually made decisions as per his will. But he didn''t mind sitting


    anywhere as long as Daisy liked it.


    Daisy still wasn''t used to hearing his sweet words. She blushed. She got nervous, every time she


    heard those words, especially when they were in public.


    "Why are you blushing? Are you thinking about something naughty?" Edward whispered into her ear


    while he was pulling out the chair for her. His moist warm breath caressed her ear. Her cheeks became


    rosier and prettier, softening her aloofness.


    "I''m not as shameless as you are." Daisy rolled her eyes at him and sat down gracefully. Although the


    majority of her co-workers were men, she was born with elegance, which was embodied in her every


    move.


    "You know I can''t do shameless things by myself. You must be with me." Edward sat opposite Daisy,


    wearing a teasing smile.


    "You are getting worse by the day. Your mind is filled with filth. What do you use it for, I wonder?"


    Daisy tried to pull herself together. If Edward noticed her uneasiness because of his tease, he would


    enjoy it and ridicule her all tonight. Darn! Being in a rtionship with such an evil guy was exhausting.


    You had to be very careful with his tricks all the time.


    "Honey, be reasonable. You were naughty first. I just disclosed what you were thinking. Howe I am


    getting med?"


    Edward pretended to be wronged. He acted innocent, but actually, his head was filled with dirty ideas.


    No one could win over him in shamelessness. More lewd remarks mighte out of his mouth. So to


    shut him up, Daisy had to acquiesce to his words, although they were just nonsense.


    "I would be a fool if I continued to argue with you over this." Daisy drank a mouthful of water from the


    ss on the table. She was in no mood to carry this topic forward because she knew she would be at a


    disadvantage.


    "OK. Let''s order a set meal for a couple." Edward knew well what she was capable of. Once the tiger


    was awakened in public, his reputation would be ruined. So he dropped the topic immediately.


    "A set meal for a couple? Count me in," a vigorous voice said. It was Brian. He smiled mischievously at


    Daisy and Edward, his nce shifting back and forth from one to the other. He just came in to grab a


    bite and hadn''t expected to bump into them. His luck had been goodtely. What a beautiful life!
