Chapter 135 But Why Do I Need To Take The Medicine
"Not really. I was prepared for the worst. So it''s not such a big deal to me. Besides, I am used to it."
Daisy smiled with self-mockery. It was hard for her to figure out the rules of the official circles.
"I''m sorry for this. Nevertheless, you still have to do your best in this military exercise. The score will be
an essential part of your assessment. What''s more, a lot of top leaders will be present on that day. So
you must put your best foot forward. There''s no room for mistakes. Everyone knows that you''re the
best!"
Themander heaved a sigh. Daisy always seemed calm about everything. She didn''t worry about
profit or loss. Probably that''s why she had missed a lot of opportunities.
"Yes, Commander. I promise I won''t disappoint you." Daisy said with a salute. She felt grateful for the
commander''s encouragement. His care wasforting to her since she had been estranged from her
father.
"Okay. You can go home now. I know you''re in a rush. By the way, where is Justin? I haven''t seen him
for a long time. I miss him." Themander asked. ''Justin is such a smart boy. Whenever we meet, he
bargains with me to assign less work to his mother. He is a considerate boy, who share his mother''s
problems and responsibilities at a such a young age. That''s really impressive.'' Themander
thought.
"I will bring him to meet you after the military exercise is over. These days you''re busy with the military
exercise preparations." Daisy said with a gentle smile. Talking about her son always made her feel
emotional.
"Okay! That''s good! Then I will arrange for lots of delicious food for Justin. Otherwise, he would
comin." Themander said with heartyughter. The deep and strongughter revealed his
commanding manner.
"If there''s nothing else, I will take your leave now." Daisy said lightly. She also knew that Justin was a
big foodie.
"Okay! Carry on!" Themander waved his hand at her, indicating that she can go now. When did
Daisy be so easygoing? He wondered.
Edward''s face turned pale as Daisy had forgotten to hang up the phone. He had overheard the
conversation between Daisy and the Commander. He remembered Daisy had once called Justin before
coming back from the military training; she was crying on the phone. Was it because of this matter?
From their conversation, it seemed that Daisy was doing well in every aspect. But her merits were
taken by others because she didn''t have strong backing. And this had happened multiple times. No
wonder she cried in front of Justin. She must have been very sad at that time. Edward thought.
Was it all about the background? Edward sneered. Things had changed. He was her strong backing
now. It seemed that it would be necessary for him to take a look at the sponsorship brief sent by a
military group. ''Are they trying to y hardball with my wife? They have to take my opinion into ount
from now on.'' Edward thought.
"Oh! It''s too hot." Daisy came running out of the military base and said to Edward. The sweat burst
through her forehead in tiny beads. She couldn''t wait to get into the car.
"Is it hot?'' Edward asked. He had been lost in his thoughts and didn''t notice that she had been running
all the way from the office building to his car. The moment she got into the car, he came back to his
senses.
"Yes. A little hot. I didn''t expect that you''de to pick me up." Daisy took off her cap and wiped her
sweat with the tissue Edward handed to her. He looked so handsome that she often wondered whether
she had fallen in love with Edward because of his appearance.
"I was worried that you might be too tired, so I came to pick you up." Edward took out another tissue
and helped her wipe the sweat on her forehead. Then he smoothed her hair which was messed up by
her cap. His eyes were full of tenderness and affection.
"That''s because of you!" Daisy stared at him and said in an angry voice. But she didn''t mind when
Edward wiped her forehead.
"Yes, it''s all my fault. I beg for your forgiveness. How do you wish to punish me?" Edward asked with a
ttering smile. He didn''t mention that he had heard her conversation with the Commander.
"Since you are so apologetic, I won''t make you suffer too much. How about the punishment of driving
me home?" Daisy joked with a soft smile. Her tiredness faded after teasing Edward. If the soldiers saw
her in the car with Edward, their jaws would drop out of surprise. They had never seen the solemn
colonel shing such a charming and sensuous smile.
"Okay. I will pay by being your driver today." Edward had never deliberately quipped to please a
woman. But to cheer Daisy, he broke his rule again.
"Haha, Edward, did you forget to take your medicine before you came out this morning?"
Daisy joked. She felt that Edward was acting strangely today. He patiently waited for her in the car, yet
he didn''tin. On the contrary, he was making jokes to please her.
"No. But why do I need to take the medicine?" asked Edward. He looked at Daisy doubtfully, who was
smiling slyly at him. He wondered why she asked this question.
"Haha. Honey, you''re so amusing!" Daisyughed. It was the first time that she hadughed so heartily.
She unwittingly called him ''honey'', which sounded very intimate.
Edward was affected by her happiness. Although he didn''t know exactly what made herugh so
loudly, he loved seeing her bright smiling face. At least, she did not look aloof and intimidating as she
used to be.
"I am delighted that my stupidity makes youugh. As you called me so intimately, I have decided to
forgive you." At first, he hadn''t figured out what she was implying to. But he quickly realized that she
had said that to mock him. Usually, Daisy wouldn''t call him ''honey'' no matter how hard Edward
seduced or intimidated her. She always took him by surprise, and he seemed to like it.
"Emm.." Daisy was very embarrassed. She didn''t call him ''honey'' on purpose. She was too excited, so
she blurted it out spontaneously. There were no special intentions behind it.Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
