Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 71 Who Said That I Have A Boyfriend

Belinda was as quick-witted as ever. Daisy felt speechless. She changed her expression. If she is her

father's daughter, she would still be her mom's daughter. What is the difference?

'Emmm... Ok, I accept that you are smart. Now tell me, are you free this weekend?' Belinda and Daisy

haven't seen each other for years. Daisy missed her very much.

"Are you planning on standing me up again?' Belinda complained sourly while putting the contract

away.

"I want to go shopping with you if you've got time, but I am fine if you don't want to come with me.

There are many other things I'd rather do." Daisy knew Belinda couldn't resist the temptation of a

shopping spree.

'Daisy! I dare you! You must go shopping with me.' Belinda's booming voice caught Edward and Mary's

attention.

No..., Belinda immediately regretted uttering Daisy's name aloud. Although Mary was familiar with

Daisy, she wasn't sure whether Daisy's name would ring a bell to Edward. Belinda's shout definitely

caught Mary's attention, and the reason behind her hostility became clear.

'Aren't you afraid of being hunted down anymore?' Daisy didn't realize what an unfavorable situation

Belinda had put herself into.

'I feel like I am being hunting down now.' Belinda grumbled. Edward, why were you staring at me? Am I

doing something illegal?

Edward was staring at Belinda because he heard Belinda call Daisy's name, so he was trying to figure

out what was going on.

'What? Someone is hunting you right now? Where are you? I am on my way!' Daisy jumped to her feet,

taking Belinda's words seriously. Belinda was the only heir of an affluent family. There were many

people out there who wanted her dead.

'Take it easy. It was just a metaphor.' Belinda stopped Daisy right away. She knew that Daisy would

immediately come over and rescue her if she was in danger.

'Belinda, you think this is funny?' Daisy was pissed off by Belinda's joke. As a soldier, she knew that in

a real fight every second mattered. One second could make a huge difference. Last time when she was

on a mission, she won her opponents over a second, had it not been the case, Daisy would be a

corpse by now.

'You are overreacting. I didn't mean to worry you. Don't be mad at me.' Belinda acted like a quiet lamb

when Daisy was mad. Usually, Daisy was amiable, but when she was pissed off, she became an

entirely different person.

'So am I the one who should be blamed?' Daisy deliberately misinterpreted Belinda's words and acted

out because she was already displeased with Belinda's attitude earlier.

"Of course, It is all my fault! You never make any mistakes! Even when you commit a mistake, it is

because of me." Belinda smiled awkwardly, dodging Edward's inquiring eyes.

Mary didn't notice Daisy's name at that moment as she was busy pleasing Edward.

"Belinda, are you suggesting that I am an unreasonable person?'" These occasional disagreements

with Belinda made Daisy's life less boring.

"Enough is enough." "Don't take my concern for granted. You need to appreciate that." Belinda warned

Daisy in tooth-gnashing frustration, thinking that she would not have been so kind to Daisy if she knew

that Daisy would push it further.

Edward didn't catch any useful information from Belinda. He believed that a gregarious woman like

Belinda would never befriend his unsociable wife. Maybe the conversation he heard was just a figment

of his imagination.

"Fine, I will see you day after tomorrow." Daisy knew where the line was, and she did not intend to

cross it. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Don't forget this time If you stand me up again, I won't spare you." Belinda was not sure whether Daisy

would keep her promise this time, so she warned her again.

"I swear on soldier's honour that I won't let you down this time." Daisy wondered, when did she become

this untrustworthy person who had to swear to gain her friend's trust.

"Ok, I will give you a second chance. See you soon! Keep in touch!" When Belinda hung up the phone,

she noticed that everyone was watching her.

"Why's everyone staring at me? Is something wrong?" Belinda shrunk her neck, thinking that she did

not say anything odd.

"Emm... Miss Belinda, do you always talk to your boyfriend like that?" Rain shivered. If his girlfriend

treated him like this, he won't be able to deal with it."

"Who said that I have a boyfriend. Please don't comment on things that you don't know about.

Sometimes ignorance could be a virtue." Belinda rolled her eyes.

"Oh! That wasn't your boyfriend?" "Usually, devious people bring about such misunderstandings."

Edward said casually, trying to piss Belinda off so that she'll tell him what he wants to know. He

wondered why Belinda was so hostile towards him all the time.

"I am free to do whatever I choose. You have no right to judge me." "Your problem is that you overthink

things. You are welcome to think freely and speak your mind but insulting me is not an option. Don't

impose your opinions on me. I am not going to accept any foolish remarks." Belinda couldn't forget

Edward's gentle and loving tone on the phone, and she was angry that he did not offer the same

affection to Daisy.

Edward didn't say much, but Belinda continued to contradict him with a long list of arguments. He found

Belinda very irritable, and it made him smile gently.

"Miss Belinda, we do not have the right to interfere in your personal life, but it is your fault to mislead

us. Please don't blame us for overthinking. Your behavior lead us to the wrong assumptions." Edward

stood up coolly and replied in a sharp tone. Not arguing didn't mean that he had a good temper. It's just

that, he didn't want to argue with a woman, but Belinda was too aggressive.
