Chapter 736 Green-Eyed Monster (Part One)


    "Congrattions. Your dream has finallye true. You''ve married the man you love." Zemo knew that


    the man Daisy talked about was the love of her life. Whenever she talked about him, she would get a


    faraway look in her eyes. Back when they trained at the academy together, Zemo always refrained from


    this topic as much as possible to avoid upsetting Daisy.


    "Thank you. I have a happy marriage." Daisy grinned at the delightful thought. She wasfortable


    with Belinda and Zemo, asionally ying jokes with them. Edward was a different story. Although


    he was an arrogant bully, she could have him eat out of the palm of her hand.


    "I can tell from your big smile. How''s life in the army? It must be fantastic." Zemo wanted to know more

    about the military life that he had yearned for a long time. He got excited when he brought up the topic.


    "You know how it is. It''s all about drills. The soldiers follow the same pattern every day." Outsiders often


    thought that the military life was mysterious, but it was actually quite boring.


    "But you enjoy it enough to never get tired of it." Although their bodies were dripping with sweat during


    their training days, they were still blissfully happy. Zemo often indulged in those memories after he left


    the military.


    "I have grown ustomed to it. If I leave the army one day, I don''t know how I''d adapt." Daisy fiddled


    with her hair in embarrassment. Truth be told, she really liked her life in the military. It wasn''t because


    she enjoyed the honor brought by her senior rank. But she had invested herself wholeheartedly to the


    job, and she found it hard to step back.


    "Since you don''t want to leave, you should stay. I think it suits you best." It had been a long time since


    theyst saw each other. They couldn''t converse as casually as they did before. It was as if they were


    afraid of saying something they shouldn''t.


    "Maybe I feel this way because of the routine. Well, let''s talk about something else. Tell me about your


    life. Do you have a family now?" Daisy blinked and stared straight at Zemo, not giving him a chance to


    lie.


    "It''s difficult to find someone like you," Zemo said sadly. Daisy wasn''t sure if he was joking.


    "Come on, why would you want to marry a girl like me? Did you forget that I used to bully you back at


    the academy?" Daisy frowned. Zemo''s words brought her a lot of pressure. She made a joke to relieve


    the awkward atmosphere.


    "No. But I like that feeling. I enjoy your bullying." Zemo looked at Daisy tenderly, giving more meaning


    to his words.


    "Don''t make fun of me. You''ve really changed a lot. You''re a smooth talker now. Is it a requirement for


    businessmen to be smooth talkers?" Daisy realized that everyone in her life couldn''t be


    underestimated. They were all as cunning as a fox.


    "It''s the same for soldiers in the military. The environment shapes the person." Zemo knew that she


    was deliberately changing the topic, but he pretended to be oblivious and went along with it.


    "Oh, have you finished what you need to do?" It urred to Daisy that Zemo came to S City for work.


    She berated herself for being too busy to think about his affairs.


    "It''s almost done, but I''ll stay for a while longer. We have a big project toplete." Zemo heaved a


    sigh. He originally thought that things would be concluded quickly, but he didn''t expect the other


    while before the project got under way.


    "Great! We can hang out until then." Daisy was excited. They hadn''t seen each other for a long time, so


    they had a lot to reminisce and talk about. Neither of them noticed that it was gettingte.


    Edward checked his watch again. It was 8:30 p.m. when he first checked the time, and it was 9:30 p.m.


    already. He was ying with his phone the whole time, hesitating to make a call. It wasn''t that he was


    jealous or that he distrusted Daisy. He was worried about her. Although she was still outside, she had


    sent Mark back. He wondered how she would get home after.


    "Dad, are you waiting for mom?" Justin looked at Edward drowsily. He rubbed his eyes and climbed


    onto Edward''sp.


    "Yeah, I''m worried about her. Little monkey, why aren''t you asleep yet?" Edward held Justin in his arms.


    He couldn''t help but kiss his chubby cheek.


    "I was about to go sleep, but I saw the light in the study, so I came to check." Justin leaned against


    Edward''s chest and kept squirming to find the mostfortable position.


    "Come on, let''s go to sleep." Edward stood up with Justin in his arms and walked towards the boy''s


    room. It was alreadyte, and Justin had school tomorrow morning. He couldn''t go to bed toote, or


    he wouldn''t be able to get up in the morning.


    "Dad, is the man I saw this morning your employee?" Justin asked curiously. Martin kept pestering him


    today, which was annoying.


    "Yes. He''s a very talented person. He''s the new nning director. Why are you asking about him?"


    Edward carefully put the little boy on the bed before adjusting the temperature in the room. He looked


    down at his son with a smile.


    "It''s nothing. I just find his son too annoying." Justin twitched his mouth in displeasure at the memory.


    "Ha! He''s pestering you, and you can''t get rid of him? Don''t you always im to be invincible?" Edward


    ruffled Justin''s hair with a big smile. It seemed that this little guy had a bit of difficulty. Besides Leena,


    someone else was able to frustrate him so much.


    "He''s too talkative. He never stops talking. He even talks to me in ss! At this rate, I''ll go crazy soon!"


    Justin pouted, venting out his frustrations.


    "Have you ever thought that maybe he wants to be your friend? Maybe that''s why he keeps talking to


    you. You should try getting to know him. You might end up bing good friends." Edward chuckled.


    Justin neverined about school before. Martin must have really gotten under his skin, or his son


    wouldn''t be ranting about him.


    "No! I don''t want to! He''s an annoying brat!" Justin whined angrily. He really disliked Martin.


    "Why? Is it because you can''t bear someone who''s more outstanding than you?" Edward frowned. If


    that was the case, he had to pay attention to this issue.


    "No! I don''t think he''s better than me!" Justin grumbled, strongly disagreeing with Edward''s assumption.


    "If not, then why are you so bothered? Go to sleep. Don''t think too much." Edward bent down to give


    his son a gentle kiss. He didn''t force Justin to ept Martin as his friend. It would only make him resist


    the idea more. Edward decided not to interfere with it. He just offered appropriate advice and didn''t stop


    him from doing what he wanted.


    "Okay. Good night, dad." Justin was sleepy, so he didn''t continue the conversation. He closed his eyes


    and soon fell into deep sleep.


    Edward patted Justin with deep affection and shook his head helplessly. An adult couldn''t always


    discern a child''s thoughts. Although Justin was upset about the topic now, it was very likely that he


    would forget about it when he woke up the next morning.


    In thete autumn evening, a handful of stars decorated the sky. After leaving Justin''s room, Edward


    stood on the balcony, still holding the phone that he hadn''t put down the whole evening. He never


    thought that he would wait for a woman who was outte at night.


    Finally, he decided to call Daisy. He was really worried about her, so he didn''t care if he was disturbing


    them.
