It'll Come Naturally

"Did she tell you that I'm everything to her?" Kevin's eyes lit up upon hearing Daisy. Her words just rekindled his hope.

"Did she have to say it? Everyone could see that she cares so much about you," Daisy snapped and stared at him. Why did men have the tendency to think too much? It was said that women had the tendency to have cranky thoughts. However, most of the men Daisy knew turned the tide. They were always the ones with strange thoughts.

"Fine, Major General Gu. Be careful with the wound and keep it from getting wet. Moreover, don't eat spicy foods." The military surgeon also prepared some medicines and gauze bandages for him.

"Okay. I know, thank you!" Kevin relaxed his elbow. His elbow was wrapped with the bandage too tight and he could barely move. He still felt a little pain whenever he tried to move his arm though. "Let's go! I'll drive you home," said Daisy. She was not in the mood the whole day. If it wasn't for that, she wouldn't have zoned out and scratched him by mistake.

"No need. Lee is here. He can send me home. It's late. You'd better go home now. Edward would be worried." Kevin had noticed the changes in Daisy in the past few days. She seemed to be unusual though she looked the same. He was a very keen observer, thus, nothing could escape his eyes. He clearly sensed that she had something on mind. However, he didn't want to bug Daisy by asking about it.

"Don't mention him to me." Just the mention of Edward's name annoyed Daisy. It was all because of him that she didn't perform well in the military drill. Worse, she almost made a terrible mistake by hurting Kevin.

"What happened? Did he make you angry?" Kevin raised his eyebrows. No wonder that she became really irritable these few days. She looked so grumpy the whole time that all the other soldiers had been avoiding her.

"Alas! It's a long story. I don't want to talk about it now. Since you don't need me to send you home, then I'll take my leave first." Daisy pulled a long face. She was extremely down now.

"Okay. Take care!" Kevin had to go back to his office to take some files. Thus, he just watched her as she walked towards the parking lot.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Frankly, Daisy didn't even want to go home. However, she also knew that escaping the problem couldn't solve anything. It was only now that she finally mustered the courage to face her situation.

On the other hand, Mark knew that Daisy was unhappy, so he tried his best not to offend her. He just fulfilled all his duties perfectly and avoided making any mistakes that could irritate her more.

"Mark, drive slowly on the way back." Although Daisy knew that she had no choice but to deal with the problem, she still felt very unsure about what she needed to do. It was the reason why she wanted to delay her meeting with Edward.

"Okay, Senior Colonel Ouyang." Mark glanced at her through the rearview mirror. He was a little doubtful about what she said. However, since this was an order, he had no reason not to follow it.

A few seconds of silence made its way inside Daisy's car. They had already passed the army gate when Mark suddenly noticed Edward's car. He turned his head to Daisy in shock, only to see that Daisy was already sleeping. Mark was suddenly directionless and didn't even know if he should continue driving that slow or if it would be better for him to just stop. It was then that Edward opened the door of his car and got off. He stood in the way of Daisy's car and forced her car to stop.

"What happened?" Feeling that the car stopped, Daisy opened her eyes and asked confusedly.

"Senior Colonel Ouyang, it's Mr. Mu," Mark replied cautiously. He knew that no one could make Senior Colonel Ouyang unhappy except for Edward. Thus, he felt uneasy while waiting for her answer.

"Ignore him. Continue to drive." Daisy leaned forward to take a look. She just didn't want to face Edward right now. She wasn't even sure if she would throw a temper at him later.

"Ah? Go on?" Mark was flustered. Of course, he couldn't knock Edward down and drive over his body.

"What? Don't you understand what I said?" Daisy seldom put on airs but that didn't mean she had no authority over his subordinate. Mark straightened his back and quickly estimated the distance from Edward. He then quickly steered the wheels and in the blink of an eye, their car passed over Edward so close that they really could have knocked him down!

Edward never expected for that to happen. He was terribly shocked when the car almost got him and didn't even slow down a bit. Daisy's car was already far away when he finally regained his senses.

"That's good, Daisy. You provoked me!" Edward said while giving his car a kick. Then he jumped into his car and caught up with Daisy. He would allow Daisy to occasionally throw her temper but he would never let her risk life. She made a really crazy stunt just now. There was a canal next to him earlier and had Mark missed that calculation, her car could have turned over. Did she even think of that when she made that crazy decision?

Seeing his young master angrily drove away, Luke followed him with concern. 'What are they doing? One is escaping and the other is chasing. Are they playing the officer-catch-the-thief game? But isn't Daisy the officer? They must have exchanged the roles by mistake,' thought Luke.

"Senior Colonel, Mr. Mu is catching up. What should we do?" Mark asked worriedly. It was lucky that they were driving on the army base road and there were a few cars on the way. However, it would be too dangerous to keep on with the chase once they reached the main road leading to the downtown.

"What? Is he crazy?" Daisy knitted her brows. She had qualms about ordering Mark to drive faster because she knew that Edward would also accelerate to catch up. Things might get out of control if they would continue like this.

Mark's mouth twitched. He actually didn't know what to say. It was a tough question and he didn't think that he would make a good bet by answering yes or no. Therefore, he chose the best for the situation and shut his mouth up. Staying silent was the best solution to avoid drawing fire against himself.

A sinister smile appeared on Edward's face as he focused on the car ahead of him. He pressed the pedal to its limit and smiled even more. His eyes were deep and unfathomable. His stern look could intimidate anyone who wanted to screw around with him.0000000
