It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 166

Edward left his office as soon as he finished his work. But as he walked out of the building, he saw the last person he wanted to meet in the world.

"What are you doing here?" he asked in an icy voice. Edward fixed the woman in his cold gaze.

"Edward, can we talk?" Jessica called out Edward's name, tears welling up in her eyes. She had called him so many times, but he didn't answer any of her calls. She tried to find him in his office, but instead, she was stopped by the receptionist. But she needed to see him, so she waited for him in the lobby.

"There's nothing we need to talk about." Staring indifferently at her, Edward was getting impatient. He hated it when women badgered him like this.

"Edward, please. Just give me another chance." Jessica lowered her voice. She felt embarrassed as people passed by and cast inquisitive glances.

"Another chance? Jessica, we've known each other for a long time. And you know that I never give chances to those I don't need anymore." Edward replied calmly. His words were like daggers that stabbed into Jessica's heart. Her face turned pale from embarrassment and shame.

"But I'm not just any woman! I'm the mother of your child!" Jessica froze for a while, and argued as soon as she found her voice again. She couldn't lose him, not while she had this kind of leverage.

"Are you kidding me? Jessica, you are way too full of yourself. The mother of my child is Daisy, not you." Edward laughed out loud and then leaned forward to whisper in Jessica's ear. There was a devilish look on his handsome face, mockery emanating from his cold eyes.

"Why? Why did you do this to me? What about our relationship? Were all those years just a lie?" Jessica staggered backward in disbelief. Stunned, she couldn't believe her ears.

"Relationship? I promised you nothing, and I never forced you to stay. I tolerated you for this long because you fell in line and behaved yourself. But now..."

How dare she talk about a relationship with him? Women always chased after him, it didn't mean they were in any kind of relationship. He didn't care about any of them, except for one. Thinking of that special one, Edward's face softened.
