It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1297 I Don't Bite Shit (Part One)

"Yes, I got injured. But it's not a big deal. It's only a minor wound and I don't think it's even necessary to discuss this with you or to make a fuss about it." Daisy was a little annoyed. She knew who told him - she heard her phone ring while she was in the bathroom. She assumed that Kevin told Leena about her injury. The call must have come from Leena. She was always the one to spread the information. But she didn't expect that Edward would pick up the phone. "Senior Colonel Ouyang, could you tell me why you are so temperamental recently?" Edward asked. He didn't know why Daisy was playing hot and cold with him today and he started to think that he must have done something wrong. But what? "You're overthinking this whole thing. Let's stop that, I want to go out and have some fresh air." Daisy gave him a cold look. She just wanted to get off here.

"I won't let you leave before we clean this up. Tell me what's going on!" Edward crossed his arms in front of his chest, ready for the war he felt was coming. He had no intention of letting her go out. And he suddenly realized that something was not quite right. Her injury. He wanted to know what really happened. But why did he have the feeling that she was avoiding the topic? This girl was hiding something.

"Okay! Let's talk! Tell me, who is the woman I saw yesterday?" Since he wanted to go toe to toe, she would surly tell him what was bothering her. And she would let him know what he did wrong to earn all that behavior now. 'I will just give him a chance to defend himself before the death penalty, ' Daisy thought.

"Woman? What woman? I have no idea what you're talking about." Edward was confused. He didn't remember meeting any woman yesterday. Anyway, since they were back together, he had never paid attention to other women. Wasn't she being paranoid? It was maybe because she was bored recently, Edward wondered.

"I'll give you a hint. The scantily dressed woman who leaned in your arms on that cold day. Huh! It happened just yesterday. Have you already forgotten after a night?" Daisy sneered and mocked him with no mercy in her voice.

"Oh! You mean Nico. She is the leading star of our entertainment company. Yesterday I had to be present in a party, but you were not available to join me. I had no choice but to ask her to be my partner. Huh, you really got jealous because of this?" Edward answered with a playful smile. He no longer felt angry upon seeing Daisy being jealous. That was rare for her and he knew it would pass once she had the right explanation.

"Who got jealous? You claimed that she was your partner, but who knows what you did behind closed curtains?" Daisy knew it would be bad to get too jealous about this but something was bothering more than expected. Any woman would feel uncomfortable when she saw her husband flirt with another woman, right?

"I swear that I only let her hold my arm and danced with her at the party. That was all. If you still don't believe me, you can ask Rain, he was also there." Edward realized that once a woman got jealous, she would lose her mind, no matter how tough and insensitive she was normally.

"I won't ask him. You men are all the same. I won't make a fool out of me just because you decided it's appropriate to invite another woman to the party." Although she accepted his excuse in her heart, she wouldn't let him get out of this so easily. Otherwise he would think that she was easy to be convinced and fooled, and something like this was acceptable.

"So are we clear now? Can you tell me how did you get injured? What happened?" Edward would also not let her sneak out. He had cleared her doubts, and it was now her turn to do so. Shouldn't she explain to him what was going on?

"I told you already- it's no big deal. It's only a minor wound, why make the fuss?" Daisy frowned, unwilling to give a straight answer.

"If you don't want me to rip your clothes off and to have an overall check, you'd better tell me the truth. Don't test my patience." Edward always could threaten and intimidate her. He was such an aggressive man.

"Okay, come closer! Have a look yourself! Come on, inspector!" Annoyed, Daisy rolled up the sleeve of her pajama, showing him the place that was covered by the bandage. The injury was hidden under the white fabric, and even if he wanted to see whether it was serious, it was not possible.

"Daisy, did you forget what you've promised me? You promised that you won't get hurt any longer. But you always get injured from time to time. Do you really want me to make you quit your job?!" The air around Edward froze. He knew clearly, it wouldn't be some minor injury if there was bandage on it. His heart ached from the view of the heavily bandaged arm.

"Yes, I promised that I would try my best to avoid getting hurt, but it doesn't mean I won't get hurt at all. That's my job! So you can't make decisions that don't depend on you. My job as the Senior Colonel is not controlled by you." Daisy didn't want to cave in or to hide the truth. The reason she chose not to tell him about her injury before was because she knew he would pester her endlessly like what he was doing right now.

"Huh! You want to bet whether I'll really do it?" Edward said with a tricky smile. His arrogant manner clearly revealed his overweening conceit, as if there was only himself in the room.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
