Chapter 363 It Has To Be Me


    "Don''t try to nder me. I earned my ce. Unlike you, I don''t sell beauty. And who wants to stay in


    bed for a month?" Daisy''s voice grew fainter and fainter until it faded to whispering. She flushed


    instantly as she thought of what he had done to her in bed.


    "You really take every word I say to heart, don''t you? Come here. Don''t tell me my beauty can''t work its


    magic on you anymore."


    Edward caught her almost inaudible murmuring and his darkened mood turned bright immediately, a


    brilliant smile lighting up his handsome face, his eyes shining with deep affection. He had remarkable


    hearing and heard what she said clearly. But he couldn''t help but surrender to her miserable face. His


    heart softened at the sight of her, and all his anger ebbed away.


    "Why don''t youe over here?" It seemed to her there was something dangerous about the car. She


    would be stupid to go near the car. Too many things could be done in a car, and God knew what he


    would do to her. She believed she would stand a chance in a fight with him, but it wasn''t a guaranteed


    win. Even by her standards, he was good at fighting, if not better.


    "Daisy, are you sure you just want to stand there?" His lips curved into a slow, affectionate smile, his


    intense blue eyes fastened on hers. For a few long seconds, she was riveted by his breathtaking


    beauty. But when she regained control, she still didn''t step forward.


    "You promise you won''t get mad at me again. Then I''ll decide." Daisy was nervous. She had no idea


    where this would lead. She tried to strike a bargain with him cautiously. She was a soldier, but like other


    women, she would be willful and intractable sometimes.


    "Well. I promise. Rx. I can''t feel my feet now. I can''t do anything to you like this." If it hadn''t been for


    his feet, he would have already hugged her tightly instead of just stood here trying to make a deal.


    Damn his luck!


    "What''s wrong with your feet? Let me have a look." Daisy hurried forward as soon as she heard his


    words. Was there a car ident on the way? Did he get hurt? It was highly possible considering his


    almost uncontrolled driving speed.


    "God, you are driving me insane." As soon as she got near him, he reached out to pull her in his arms


    and kissed her eagerly. She had no idea how he had felt on the way here, that he had listed countless


    exnation for what he had done, that his heart twisted painfully at the thought of her, that his world


    would have copsed without her.


    "Um…" Daisy''s eyes widened. She was tricked by him again! So the feet were just an excuse to get her


    toe closer. She had known it was not safe to get near the car. Now things went his way again.


    Frowning, Edward covered her eyes with his hand. It seemed she always got distracted when they


    kissed. She would forget to breathe, or just stare at him with her bright wide eyes, and she looked so


    pure and innocent that he felt he was defiling her.


    Daisy''s calm eyes were tinged with pleasure. Though blinded by his warm hand, she could still feel his


    passion from this aggressive kiss, feel his worry and anger from his trembling body.


    Without knowing it she wrapped her arms around his neck. Carefully she chased the tip of his tongue


    between her lips and teeth, melting in the fondness of this deep, urgent kiss. She never dared to show


    her true thoughts, but at this moment she just cut loose and followed her heart, baring all her feelings to


    him.


    "Do you really regret it? Um?" Edward forced her face up and his eyes locked with hers. His breathing


    was still ragged, but he just couldn''t wait to get a answer from her. Did she really regret loving him? Or


    did she just say it in the heat of the moment?


    "If I say yes, will you believe it?" Daisy tilted her head and her eyes glittered with mischief. She studied


    him, trying to be defiant, though her face, burning from the kiss, weakened her words and betrayed her


    real thoughts.


    "I don''t believe a single word of it. You''re madly in love with me. You can''t do without me in this life. It


    has to be me." Reaching out, he tapped her nose with his knuckle. Since her usation sounded so


    heartbreaking, for a moment he had believed that she had second thoughts. But when he calmed down


    and thought this over, he knew she was just being petnt.


    "So confident that it has to be you? Then why were you so mean to me?" Daisy twisted her mouth and


    suddenly grabbed his cor, ring at him usingly. No wonder the CEO of FX International Group


    was known for his slyness and cunning. He had all this nned pretty well. He had shouted at her to


    get control of the situation first, then got her to drop her guard step by step. He was indeed a crafty


    businessman. Even she got conned by him!


    "I was so pissed off at you. I could barely think straight." Edward indulged her, letting her do what she


    wanted. Compared to the words about regret, this little threat was totally eptable.


    "So what about your feet? ying the sympathy card?" Remembering why she hade over here


    without thinking, she looked down to study his feet.


    "It''s okay. I drove too fast and the tension caused some numbness in my feet." He reached out and


    tucked her hair behind her ear, his warm fingertips rested on her earlobe and rubbed it gently. Her


    earlobes felt so tender and maybe this was why she was so sensitive every time he kissed them.


    "Edward, can you promise me one thing? Never risk your life no matter how bad the situation is. You


    should know how cruel that is to me." As Daisy said this, she never thought that one day she would see


    him fall over her, his body covered with blood. Of course that was forter. At this moment she was so


    worried about him that she couldpletely ignore his hands moving over her body.


    "Okay. I promise. My life belongs to my wife, Daisy Ouyang. Even God can''t take it without my wife''s


    permission. Colonel Daisy, are you satisfied with my promise?" Edward felt this topic was too heavy, so


    he made the vow in a joking manner. But at that moment he never imagined that he would break his


    promise in the future.


    "I mean it. Don''t make light of this." Daisy frowned at his light-hearted attitude. She knew he was trying


    to make her happy, but she also knew how fragile life was after she had been through too many scenes


    where lives were hanging on the line. Death oftenes at a delicate moment and there is no way to


    guard against that kind of thing. She learned to respect life and wished the man she loved would


    cherish his own life more than anything else.


    "Honey, what are you worried about? Rx. I will live long and well for your sake -- and Justin''s"


    Edward hugged her again. He didn''t know why she became so emotional today, but he knew what she


    wanted. So he made this promise to her, and also to himself.


    Daisy''s lips twitched slightly. She thought for a moment and then decided not to dwell on it. She rested


    her head against his chest and listened to his strong heartbeat, filled with nothing but love and


    happiness at the moment.


    The faint Jasmine scenting from him gave her a sense of satisfaction. His embrace was what she


    desired so badly, a ce she could rely on. But it had belonged to other women once, no matter how


    much she wanted it.


    And now he stood right before her, hugged her. He was hers, truly andpletely. No one could take


    him away from her, she wouldn''t let that happen.


    She had overreacted today. But she didn''t regret it. If she couldn''t express her feelings, frustration and


    anger would keep building up in her heart until one day she couldn''t take them any more and explode.


    If he truly loved her, he should be able to tolerate her asional emotional fits.


    Normally she was quite rational. She had intended to have a walk and get rid of her bad mood. But his


    call just pushed her buttons and before knowing it she snapped, all the resentment built up over the


    years exploding out of her.


    "Edward, if one day you decide you don''t love me anymore, just forward me the divorce papers by


    messenger or something. I''m afraid I won''t be able to control myself, and who knows what I''d do, I


    might shoot you if I see you in person at that time."


    Daisy always felt insecure about their love, not sure where this rtionship was going. A faint sadness


    was lurking in the deep corner of her heart like a ghost. Every time she saw his handsome face, the


    bitter feeling lingered in her mind.


    "Are you seriously trying to annoy me? If I divorce you, I''ll kill myself before you shoot me. I''m not


    kidding -- you know how I am when I lose control. Don''t ever say the ''d'' word to me again, okay?"


    He was just a jerk in her eyes. She didn''t trust him, had no faith in their love. The knowledge of her


    insecurity was almost unbearable for him. But what was more galling was the word ''divorce'' from her


    mouth, it hurt him much more than having his chest blown open by a bullet.Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
