It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1126 The Meaning Of Happiness (Part Three)

"Good question, Kevin. It is correct that they have spent many resources on this case. However, there is also the problem of location. Don't forget that this is S city, not some western countries. Once the foreign faces of Interpol appear here, it would immediately arouse the suspicions of the criminals. They'll be too conspicuous to be kept a secret. The Interpol does not want the criminals to raise their vigilance, so we have to support them." The commander sighed. It was not his intention to expose his people to such a dangerous mission, but this was an order. As a soldier, he could not display the slightest disobedience. He had to follow the orders and so did his subordinates.

"I understand. So, that's why you're asking us to pretend to be a couple to get close to the targets." Kevin smiled bitterly. He had long been accustomed to such missions. Daisy and he often did it in previous tasks. Before, there had never been a reason not to take up the missions. But he felt differently this time about pretending to be a couple with Daisy. He was married to Leena now.

"That is correct! You two are the most suitable people to play lovers in this army base. Both of you are skilled and experienced too. Besides, you two have worked together on many tasks before and are a good team. This task should not be difficult. Aren't you confident about it like I am?" The commander beamed, not exaggerating a bit. In the entire army base, only Kevin and Daisy were both young as well as good-looking. They were the best candidates for this international mission because they not only satisfied that criteria but were also skilled in foreign language. They were greatly experienced in combats. The commander believed that they would complete the mission successfully.

"Do we need to set out now?" Unlike Kevin's little and sudden moodiness, Daisy did not entertain any emotional fluctuations with regard to this task. She only took it as a new challenge.

"Yes. Of course. As for your get-up, I don't think you need my orders. You young people have your own styles. So go ahead and prepare for it! I'll tell Hawkeyes to assist you on the action in secret." The Commander had always valued them and was at ease leaving the task to them.

"All right. We will get right to it. Wait for us to triumph and return!" Kevin announced, not imagining in his wildest dreams that he would encounter more unexpected things that would almost endanger him, thanks to a momentary loss of his sound mind.

At the same moment, Leena sat opposite Gerard at a posh restaurant in a hotel. Although the atmosphere between them was uncertain and distant, it was much better than before in the car.

"Mignonne, thank you for taking out the time to dine with me. I am so happy to be with you," Gerard said with his eyes full of affection. Although Leena's attitude was somewhat aloof, he pretended not to notice it. The more distant Leena acted, the more his desire to conquer her once again grew.

"We are friends, aren't we? So don't be polite to me. The reason I got angry was not that you came to replace me. It was because you didn't inform me before you arrived here. You know, it bothered me a lot when you suddenly appeared in front of me." Leena stared at him calculatingly. She did not think Gerard came to S City only for a visit. He must have some other purpose. But what was that? Leena could not be sure.

"Mignonne, but are you happy now?" Gerard sloshed the wine in his glass and sipped it, looking back at Leena with a touch of inquiry in his voice.

"Gerard, according to you, what is the meaning of happiness?" Leena questioned him back, not answering him directly. In many ways, people had different ideas with regard to happiness. What she thought made her happy might not arouse the same feeling in him. "For me, happiness is to have the one you love love you back. What about you? What does happiness mean to you?" Gerard stared at her intensely as if he was trying to convey the love in his heart.

"Happiness is the smile he wears when he lowers his head to look at me, a quiet call of my name from his thin lips, the softness with which he holds me in his arms and the warmth I feel when his eyes meet mine. Those moments define happiness for me. So, do you think I am happy?" Leena smiled with her head bowed down. A tender look arose on Leena's face as if she was intoxicated in her sweet memories.

"Mignonne, when you say that, you look like a girl who has fallen in love. You love him very much, am I right? Even more than you loved me before." Gerard was upset. He never saw such an impassioned expression in her eyes when they had been together. She was in love, certainly, and the man she was in love with was not him.00000000
