It'll Come Naturally

"Szechuan cuisine? It's not my favorite, but I don't hate it either. Why did you bring it up? Do you want Szechuan?" Edward
turned round, and gazed at Daisy. He was surprised. Why would a woman like her enjoy spicy foods? How many hidden layers
did she have? Oh, she was almost like a book. The more he read, the more he was intrigued by the plot.
"Just teasing. The weather is so hot now. The Szechuan cuisine fits winter." Daisy preferred spicy food, but she had to consider
what was best for Justin.
"You naughty girl." Edward chuckled when he heard the answer. He rubbed the tip of her nose, and gazed meaningfully into her
eyes.
Edward always liked to rub the tip of her nose. Daisy wasn't sure she liked that. While it could be an innocent sign of affection,
she felt that he treated her like a little girl.
Suddenly, Edward's phone rang, playing a popular love song. Before answering, he helped Daisy fix her hair, which was blown
wild by the wind. Without missing a beat, he took out his phone.
"Yes? What's up, Duke?" Edward frowned when he saw Duke on the caller ID. Duke didn't come to him for help often, and when
he did it was something big.
"Edward, have you heard from Leena recently?" Duke's sounded anxious.
"No. Isn't she in Paris? What happened?" Edward was puzzled. Was she in trouble? Or had she caused any?
"She's not in Paris. I haven't heard from her since yesterday. I called her hotel, but she had checked out. And she's not home yet.
I thought she might be in contact with you somehow..." Duke's heart was torn. No one but his little sister could do this to him.
"Calm down, man. I'll get my men right on it. If we find her, you'll be the first to know." Edward knew how important Leena was to
Duke. Duke's mother died after giving birth to Leena Leng. Duke cherished his little sister a lot -- she was all he had left of their
mother.
"Thank you. Take a look at the reservations and guest histories in your hotels. If Leena checked in, she might have used the
Dragblac Card. If she did, you could find the records." Although very anxious, Duke wasn't flustered at all. He always was the
picture of calm during an emergency.
"I'll have a look. Let's find out whether she has checked in or not." Dragblac Card was the VVIP card in Edward's hotel chain.
Few possessed it, one of whom was Leena Leng. It was not hard to trace.

"Okay, thanks, Edward." Duke rarely said thank you, but he'd say it a million times to anyone who helped him find his Leena.
"Don't mention it. She's also my sister." Edward was an only child. So he always treated that beautiful little girl as his own sister.
He was protective of her.
Edward hung up the phone, and gestured to Luke, who stood by the car, waiting for his orders.
"What's up, sir?" Luke jogged over to Edward. He was wearing a dark suit that accented his handsome features.
"Have a look at the flights from Paris to the city yesterday, and find out if Miss Leng was on the passenger list. Then send some
men to look for her in the entertainment venues." Edward decided to look for Leena everywhere, and put Luke on this.
"Duly noted, sir." Luke nodded to Edward, walked aside, and started ringing his people.
"What's happened? Can I help?" Daisy was next to him the whole time. She knew what happened.
"Don't worry. The things are under control." Edward smiled, and dialed another number.
Daisy said no more. Holding Justin's hand, she waited nearby.
"Yes, Mr. Mu, what can I do for you?" Aaron held the steering wheel with one hand, and answered his call with the other. He
hoped Mr. Mu wouldn't ask him to do extra hours.
"Aaron, check all the records of Dragblac Card used in the city, and find out who used it. Call me when it's done." Edward said
calmly, but the expression on his face revealed his true feelings. His eyebrows furrowed deeply, and anxiety showed in his eyes.
"Of course, Mr. Mu. I'll start now." Aaron swerved the car back, and drove to the company. He sighed at the overtime he'd have
to pull. But why did Mr. Mu ask him to check on the user records of Dragblac Card? Was someone using a counterfeit card? If
so, the culprit was really stupid. Besides the unique design of the card, they were made from rare materials, and only a handful
of copies were issued. Even Aaron didn't have one.
"Sir, I've arranged people to handle the flights and entertainment venues. I think they will find Miss Leng soon." Luke had worked
for Edward for many years. He knew Leena was important to Duke and Edward.
Edward nodded, and turned to Daisy. She was looking at him too, with a worried expression on her face.

"Let's go. You must be hungry." When he took her hand, he frowned at the cold touch. Why was she so cold in hot weather? He
hoped it was not because of indifference.
"Aren't you busy? I can take Justin to lunch, so you can deal with this." Although Daisy was not sure exactly what was going on,
she could sense that he was about worried for someone important to him. She had served in the army for many years, and had
learnt to observe other people's subtle moods. She knew when something was urgent.
"No, nothing to worry about. Luke can handle it. And if there's an emergency, he can call me. Besides, you've never asked me
out to dinner before. How can I let you down?" Edward never allowed accidents to wreak havoc on his plans. What was more, he
had people doing the digging. He didn't need to lift a finger, and rarely got involved himself. That's what other people were
for.
