It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1759 Sweet Scene (Part One)

"Whatever, Edward. You should resolve the problem you've created," Daisy said. It would have been fine if Edward hadn't asked the question. But now that he did, she felt more aggrieved -- this year was going to be the busiest time for her, and there would be a big move coming in. "Yes! Leave it up to me. Don't worry! I'll take care of our new baby." Edward assured. He was completely immersed in the happiness of Daisy's pregnancy and noticing nothing unusual.

"You'll take care of it? Then why don't you conceive a baby?!" Daisy yelled. She wasn't a commanding Senior Colonel at this moment, but a reckless shrew.

"If I could do that for you, I would do it," Edward said, trying to console her. He badly wanted a little cutie as pretty as his wife.

"Easy for you to say..." Daisy said. She didn't take it to heart because she thought he was just saying it for show. She never expected that Edward would take any real action. She was not prepared for this.

"I know. What if we just sit on it for a while? That way, we would reach some compromise," Edward said. As long as he could get her to say yes, he might do everything she told him to do -- even if she asked him to bark like a dog.

"You, you......" Daisy was choked up with anger and was unable to say anything else. All she could do was stare at him with burning eyes as she ground her teeth.

"All right. Honey, don't be mad. Just think about it! How wonderful it would be if we have a daughter as beautiful as you are," Edward said, wiping the tears that were forming at the corners of Daisy's eyes. He understood how serious the situation was. Making her cry was the last thing he wanted.

"How do you know our baby's a girl? What if it's a boy?" Daisy said, knocking his hand away from her face. 'Who does he think he is? He thinks he can decide the gender of the baby for himself just like that? No, why should I even be affected by him?' Daisy thought. "No way. It must be a girl..." Edward said. He was dumbfounded as he had never thought until then that that was a real possibility. Either way, he still stuck to his own credence.

"I'm tired of arguing with you. No matter what happens, you must give me an acceptable solution when I get back from work," she sniffed. If she could, she would have beaten up this self-righteous man who was in front of her. "Hold up! Let's go to see Tom and ask him to check if you really are pregnant," he quickly said. Edward couldn't wait to get a definitive answer.

"Humph! Do you think I have time for that?" Daisy became even more upset upon hearing Tom's name. She had guessed that it was Edward and Tom who conspired with each other to put her into such a passive position.

"Well.. I'll pick you up after your work," Edward replied with a slight smile. He was secretly glad that he could get away with this.

"No need," she said, quickly dismissing his offer. She was honestly getting worried that she might order the soldiers to put him into the jail for everything he had done.

"But I insist." Edward was a little upset whenever he got rejected by Daisy; his temper obviously wasn't that good either.

Daisy bit her lip, mumbled a curt "Whatever", and walked out of the room quickly. It was up to Edward if he wanted to pick her up, but it was up to her if she refused.

"Yes!" Edward said, totally hyped up. He stood up, full of vigor. He needed to share with somebody the good news. Without a second thought, he went to Tom.

"What are you doing here this early, boss? Don't tell me you're constipated..." Tom asked suspiciously, a wry smile appearing on his face. He had no idea why Edward showed up so early.

"Shut up! You're the one who's constipated," Edward snapped back. His good mood was ruined by Tom's snide comment.

"Then what is it? Come on, tell me!" Tom said. The more he looked at Edward, the more skeptical he felt. He had no idea what Edward could possibly say to him that seemed so urgent. Tom took a step back, as if to brace himself for what Edward was about to say.

"I have one question for you," Edward paused, looking Tom straight in the eye with the upmost seriousness. "Does it mean someone's a hundred percent pregnant if the pregnancy test is positive?" Daisy's possible pregnancy consumed Edward's thoughts. It was all he cared about at that moment. Because of this, he wanted to double check with Tom; Edward didn't want to be happy for nothing.

"Not exactly. It depends on the quality of the test kit. Why do you ask me about this?" Tom asked. And then, shortly after, Tom pieced it together. "Wait, so Daisy..." his mouth opened widely with shock. 'No way! Daisy's pregnant already!' he thought. "Yes!" Edward said excitedly. He couldn't hide his joy. He had missed his chance to see Justin grow up. No matter what happened, he wanted to be involved with his child with Daisy, right from the beginning until the very end.

"What about Daisy? How did she react?" Tom asked. He knew Daisy would at least be in shock. Edward had asked Tom to keep his surgery a secret. Tom was sure that Daisy had no idea about it.

"She almost tore me into pieces," Edward said with a shudder. He began to worry about his future life as he thought of Daisy's attitude towards him this morning.

"Where is she now? I can arrange a test for her. Then you can know for sure if she is pregnant or not," Tom offered, happily but anxiously. He was happy that Edward's wish could come true at last, but was anxious that Daisy would put him into jail for being Edward's accomplice. After all, Edward had said that she was very agitated.

"She went to the army base. I plan to pick her up after her work and then come here directly. So you'd better arrange everything well in advance in case nobody could do the test for her by then," Edward said. This was the reason why he came to see Tom in person. He needed to get everything ready.

"Got it. I'll have it arranged," Tom promised. He thought Edward was smart enough to talk to him first. Otherwise all the people in the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department would have left if they came here near closing time.

"I gotta go. I still have a lot of work at the company that I need to deal with," Edward said as he glanced at his watch. He had become busier since Rain took over KD group. It seemed that it was time for him to hire a new assistant. But he would still have Rain as Vice President so long as he had the power to do so, whether Rain was working in KD group or not.

"I don't intend to keep you long," Tom said. He, too, had been very busy recently. His life had changed a lot since he got married. He needed to take care of both his work and his family. Sometimes he would ask himself if that was the life he really wanted. But whenever he questioned himself, the answer was always yes.

"I won't stay even you want me to," Edward said and then left, frivolously and flamboyantly.

"Humph!" Tom said, pouting. He always used self hypnosis to tell himself that nothing happened whenever he faced such an arrogant boss. If he didn't, he might have died with anger.

Compared with Edward's fairly positive mood, Daisy was prone to emotional outbursts. She didn't think it was good timing to have another baby. This year, she would be busy with not only the national parade, but also several large-scale live-fire exercises. She couldn't be absent from any of them. So she was wondering if she should keep this new baby. What should she do if she decided to keep it?

"Daisy, what's the matter with you today? Why do you look anxious? Do you know what a big mistake you've made?" Kevin said, frowning. Although he was reluctant to say this, he had to criticize her for the sake of safety.

"Sorry! Major General, I need a break." Daisy said, pursing her lips, and then rushed out of the training field.

"Mark, what's wrong with your Senior Colonel?" Kevin asked, frowning. 'Did I talk to her too harshly?' he thought.

"I don't know, Major General. She has been like this since this morning," Mark replied. He felt very aggrieved at being named because he knew nothing about this.

"Okay. Follow her to check what's happening!" Kevin ordered, sighing slightly and thoughtfully.

"Yes, Major General," Mark said, saluting before going after Daisy.

Daisy took off her feldmutze and fanned herself with it. Summer was approaching, so the weather of S City was getting very hot and dry.[D
