Chapter 966 Why Zemo Left JC Military Academy (Part Two)


    "What? Eat all of it? That''s practically impossible!" Tom''s eyebrows furrowed. He felt a bit troubled and


    stopped eating as he stared at the delicious dishes put in front of him. How was it possible for him to


    eat all the dishes at once? He suddenly seemed to lose his appetite. The food didn''t seem to be so


    appealing after that.


    "Yes, of course! Eat it all! Do you really want Mrs. Wu''s delicious food to go to waste?" Edward slowly


    walked towards them. He had already returned to his normal self, a far cry from the cold and distant


    man who was talking to Daisy.


    "Come on! Edward, are you kidding? You are just avenging me for what I said to Daisy. If I eat all the


    dishes right now, my stomach will surely burst and I won''t be able to walk home! You can''t be that


    cruel." Tom looked at Edward, his eyes full of horror. He was definitely right! Edward was saying this


    only to avenge him for the stern words he said to Daisy earlier, when they were all upstairs.

    "Well, who says that you have to walk home? Just drive your car. I don''t have spare space for you to


    park your car here anyway." A smirk appeared on Edward''s handsome face. He sat down in front of


    Tom, seeming quite rxed. It looked like he was going to watch Tom finish all the dishes that Mrs. Wu


    cooked for him.


    "Huh! You are being so obnoxious right now. Are you really worried that I''ll stay over for the night? Let


    me tell you the truth: I''m not someone whom you can easily persuade to stay over." Tom raised one of


    his eyebrows, looking defiant. He had to rush back to the hospital when he finished eating, anyway. He


    was still worried about his patient from earlier, whom he had operated upon. He had to get back and


    check on the invalid himself.


    "What? Why would I even do that? Please, I don''t want you to stay, okay? By the way, I have


    something to ask you. Has Rain called you up recently? The guy has been in Thand for several days,


    but there hasn''t been any news about what he is up to. That''s a bit strange, isn''t it?" In fact, this was


    why Edward hade downstairs for. He wanted to ask Tom if he knew anything about Rain, who had


    gone abroad.


    "No, he didn''t call me. Why are you asking, anyway? Edward, are you hiding something from us?" Tom


    looked at him with suspicious eyes. He had a weird feeling about his question. No wonder Edward had


    nice to Tom before. This had been a first. Tom should have known this. Edward was never so


    considerate to him unless he wanted something.


    "Don''t be so dramatic. What can I possibly hide from you anyway? Well, now that I know that he didn''t


    call you, I won''t interrupt your meal. Enjoy eating! Remember, finish all the food. Mrs. Wu, please keep


    an eye on him and make sure he eats everything well. And if he doesn''t, just pack the leftovers for


    him." Edward dered as he stood up and walked out of the dining room. A smirk formed on his face.


    Well, he couldn''t be med, right? It was Tom''s own fault that he couldn''t keep his mouth shut. Even


    Edward himself wouldn''t say those kind of severe words to his wife. But Tom? He just bluntly said it all!


    Of course, he had to tease Tom and make him pay for it. Oh, sweet revenge! Although to be fair, Tom


    only said what Edward himself wished to say to his wife.


    "Damn it! Are you serious right now? I mean, why do you do this to me? Can''t you give me a break for


    once and pretend that you care about me?" Tom whined, staring at the dishes in front of him, his eyes


    forlorn. Was he really going to have to stuff all of this into his stomach? That was impossible!


    "Yes, Mr. Mu. That is no problem." Mrs. Wu said to her employer in response. She found his words


    funny, but was trying her hardest not tough. She knew that Edward was just kidding. It was just


    yful banter between friends, that was all. After all, she had been working here for many years, so


    she was quite familiar with their good-natured repartee.


    "What! Mrs. Wu, are you really going to take his side? I am so hurt." Tomined dramatically,


    turning to look at Mrs. Wu. Why were the both of them being so cruel to him today? He should have


    kept mouth shut earlier. Now, he regretted what he said to Daisy.


    "Oh, Mr. Qin, don''t worry! I just said that to get Mr. Mu off your back. Of course I wouldn''t ask you to


    finish all the meal at once!" Mrs. Wu finally exined to Tom, right after Edward disappeared from her


    view. She really liked all of them. It was a shame that she didn''t have her own children, but she cared


    for them like they were her own.


    "Thank you, Mrs. Wu. You are a life saver." Tom let out a sigh of relief. For a second there, he was


    actually afraid that Mrs. Wu was going to do as she was told. Fortunately, she didn''t n to make him


    eat everything. After all, he knew that Mrs. Wu had a soft spot for him.


    Edward returned to the bedroom. but he didn''t see Daisy inside. He couldn''t help but regret what he


    had said to her. He had been too harsh to her.


    But truthfully, his worries were reasonable. Daisy was slightly hurt at his words and didn''t know what to


    do to cate him. Daisy got hurt a lot when she was working. It was the nature of her job. She had


    chosen this career right from the beginning itself. However, if Edward couldn''t stop constantly getting


    anxious about her safety, was she going to have to quit her job to make Edward happy? As she


    considered this, Daisy couldn''t help but feel a bit sad. She stood on the balcony, looking at the night


    sky as she let her mind wander. Although there were only a few stars in the sky, the scene before her


    eyes was beautiful enough to distract her for a while.


    Deep in her heart, she knew she couldn''t be so selfish. If her job had started to affect her family, then


    she must consider quitting, even though she loved her work very much. Nothing was more important to


    her in life than family. If she had to choose between her career and her loved ones, she would certainly


    hold on to thetter at the end of the day.


    "Daisy, why are you standing here? Don''t you think about your injury at all?" Although Edward was


    regretful and had realized that he had been too harsh on her, when he saw Daisy standing on the


    balcony, his face turned cold and impassive again. He didn''t want Daisy to know that he had already


    forgiven her.


    "I''m thinking... I don''t know if I should quit my job or not." Daisy didn''t turn back to face Edward as her


    indifferent words rang in the air. The thought had been loitering inside her head for a while now. She


    didn''t actually want to quit this job, but it wouldn''t be so hard for her to do it.


    "What are you talking about? Stop saying this nonsense! I know you love the military uniform very


    much. You love what you do. Besides, you just got a promotion. You have be a Senior Colonel.


    That is something you have fought for for so many years. Do you really want to give it all up now?"


    Edward had no idea why Daisy would say something like this. He was shocked at her words. After all, if


    there was one thing she loved besides her family and friends, it was her work.
