Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 91 Honey, You Are Finally Here

Belinda really wanted to pour her glass of wine on the egocentric man sitting in front of her. Honestly,

she would have already left if the man were not the son of her father's friend. But the truth was that she

was trapped here and condemned to listen to him ramble on.

"Well, in my view, women should just stay home and tend their husbands and children, instead of

working outside like some women do. Do you agree, Miss Belinda?" The arrogant man continued his

monologue, spittle flying out from his mouth.

"Um.. Maybe." Belinda answered mechanically as if she had done this a thousand times before. How

miserable her life was!

She was actually thinking, 'Fuck you. We are not primitive people. Fuck the idea of women doing only

house chores, never any real work. If I were home-bound, how could I be on a blind date here with

you?'

But instead of voicing her thoughts, she could only echo the man's words because her father had

warned that if Belinda ruined another blind date, he would marry her off next month to any random

man.

She rolled her eyes helplessly. Was she really that old now? Why was her father always worried about

her marriage? In fact, she had enough number of men pursuing her. She had to stop listening to the

man's bullshit about male superiority.

"Miss Belinda, I will help you run the company after we get married. You don't need to worry about

that." The man continued, completely ignoring Belinda's cold response.

'What the hell! I will be worried if the company is in your hands. It turns out all you are interested in is

my company.' Belinda complained to herself. She should show the man her true colors. She was not a

submissive woman.

"I don't think I am your type. You want a meek wife cum housekeeper. But I am not interested in house

chores. You should find someone else. There may be the right kind of wife for you out there, but it is

just not me. Besides, I already have a boyfriend." That was the most Belinda had managed to say ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

tonight. She couldn't stand his bullshit any longer. If her father was to blame her for this, then so be it.

These worries belonged to the future. But right now, all she wanted to do was to escape from this man.

"Miss Belinda, your father told me that you were single." The man seemed not to buy Belinda's story.

He didn't think a strong woman like her would be anyone's favorite.

"See. There he is. He is here to see me." Belinda turned around and spotted Duke entering. She saw

him go in with other people, but it was too dark to figure out who they were. But she was in desperate

need of a fake boyfriend, so she ignored the rest and waved out to Duke.

"Miss Belinda, are you kidding?" 'If that steely person was Belinda's boyfriend, I have no chance of

beating him and winning over Belinda.' the egocentric man thought to himself.

"Duke, do you know that girl with the curvy figure?" Leena saw the girl waving to Duke and asked,

curiously.

"Should we go there, Edward?" Rain teasingly looked at Edward. He remembered clearly that Belinda

had been quite interested in Edward before.

Edward frowned, looked at Daisy and saw that she was not looking in Belinda's direction. Instead, she

was focusing on the bustling crowd dining there.

"Let's go. See what she is up to." Edward clasped his hands around Daisy, who seemed lost in some

fantasy, and shook her back to reality.

Duke stood in front of them. After hearing what Edward had said, he left the crowd and moved forward,

but without any smile on his cold face.

"Honey, you are finally here." At the sight of Duke, Belinda rushed into his arms without even noticing

the people behind him. After all, she needed a fake boyfriend right now. She had no time to worry about

the others.

Belinda's hug shocked a lot of people. Duke too was taken aback. Since when was he this woman's

honey?

"What the hell! What are you doing?" Duke tried to push her away, but that only made her embrace

tighter.

"Cold Duke, help me this time. I need a favor." Belinda pleaded in low voice, afraid that Duke might

reveal the truth.

"LOL... Miss Belinda, shouldn't you hug Edward? What made you change your target?" After his brief

of astonishment, Rain began to make fun of Belinda.

Rain's sudden laughter scared Belinda into letting go of Duke right away. OMG. She was too busy

trying to get rid of the mega-ego man to notice Rain's presence. Why was he here?

"Belinda, why are you here?" Daisy frowned slightly. Her interest was piqued when she heard Rain

mention Edward. She was wondering what Duke's girlfriend had to do with her husband. But it had

never occurred to her that it was Belinda.

"Daisy, I miss you so much." Then Belinda pushed Duke out of her arms, shoved Edward aside and

hugged Daisy. She followed it with a big kiss on Daisy's cheek.

Edward looked at his now-vacant hands and was totally confused. What was going on? Did Belinda

have a penchant for hugging people? One moment she was calling Duke honey and embracing him

tightly, and the next moment she was hugging and kissing Daisy.

By now, Leena was staring intently at Duke, her big brother. Wow, since when did Mr. Cold have such a

hot girlfriend? How come she had never heard of it? It seemed that she would soon have a sister-in-

law.

Duke still wore a cold look and glared at Leena. He knew what Leena was thinking about. But even he

himself did not know what was going on. Only God knew why Belinda suddenly jumped into his arms.

Rain stroked his chin contemplatively. He believed something was going on between Duke and

Belinda. But when did they hook up together? Why did he hear nothing about it? It was so rare to hear

gossip about Duke. Maybe he could earn some bonus by selling the news to the media.

Edward looked at the two women hugging each other. Finally, he understood why Belinda always gave

him a hard time... she was Daisy's bestie. No wonder she always had harsh words for him every time

they talked. It turned out she was defending Daisy.
