It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 303 Don't Be Absurd (Part Two)

"I know. Please continue with the proceedings." Daisy didn't like to use her higher ranks to get privilege. She chose to cooperate with the investigation. She was also curious to replace out what her 'improper behavior' was. "Colonel Ouyang, do you know Edward Mu, the CEO of the FX International Group?" The inspectors cut to the chase and directly asked Daisy since she seemed willing to cooperate.

"Edward? Yes, I know him." Daisy bit her lip and answered honestly. Of course she knew her own husband! What kind of question was that?

"His wife has reported that you are having an affair with him. What do you have to say for yourself?" With his eyes fixed on Daisy, the inspector continued. He noticed that she bit her lip. Maybe she was nervous; maybe she really did something disgraceful. "What did you say? His wife? Are you sure about that? It's impossible!" Daisy was confused. Why on earth would she report herself? She wasn't that bored. She had been really busy with her work.

"That's right. We have proof." The inspector considered that Daisy probably didn't know that Edward was a married man. He suddenly felt sorry for her.

"May I ask who his wife is? Who's impersonating me?" Daisy wasn't stupid. She had pieced things up and knew exactly what had happened. Jessica's face suddenly flashed through her mind. 'It's you Jessica, isn't it? Why are you still stuck on this?' Daisy was furious. Jessica still didn't believe that she and Edward were married. She was pushing her luck again and again. Daisy decided she wouldn't let her off this time.

"Sorry, we can't tell you that. Just tell us if it's true. We need to hear your side of the story so that we can investigate further." The inspector didn't notice the last line uttered by Daisy.

"What if I tell you that Edward, the CEO of the FX International Group, is my husband? Do you still think we have to continue this investigation?" All Daisy wanted was to stay away from trouble. But clearly, someone else didn't want her to do that. She was worn out because of the military exercises, and yet problems kept coming her way. First Jessica, and now the inspectors. She had to admit that Jessica was quite capable. In such a short time, she found out what army she served and instigated a disciplinary inspection against her. Daisy was kind of impressed.

"Don't be absurd, Colonel Ouyang. Though we barely know each other, we're aware that you are a single mother. Please answer our questions honestly." The disciplinary inspectors had the right to investigate every soldier and officer in the army. They had dealt with many soldiers with a violent streak. Daisy's stern look didn't intimidate them.

"I'm telling the truth. You can verify it if you like. I won't stop you. Is there anything else you want to ask me?" Daisy retorted with a sneer. She felt sad deep down. It seemed that the entire army base thought she was a single mother. But there were some other facts that they didn't know about. Or they wouldn't be asking her these questions.

"Last question. It has come to our knowledge that you have accepted a luxury car as a bribe. Is that true?" The inspectors hesitated for a while. It seemed that Daisy wasn't lying. Was the CEO of the FX International Group really her husband? It's impossible! No one had heard about that ever before! Perhaps it was a new status that Mr. Mu had promised her?

"I swear on my reputation that I have never taken any bribe. I did drive a luxury car once. But is it a crime to drive your own husband's car?" Daisy closed her eyes and sighed heavily. She knew she would get into trouble for driving Edward's Ferrari into the army base. She had tried her best to avoid such things. She only drove his car once, and that was enough for the person who was trying to hurt her.

"Okay, we'll look into it. We hope you will be supportive when we carry on with the investigation. It's nothing personal, just our work." Although the disciplinary inspectors had the right to investigate soldiers and officers concerning disciplinary violations, Daisy was higher than them in ranks. They were rude when the questioning first began, but they didn't forget that Daisy was a colonel. Now that they saw Daisy's furious expression, they wouldn't dare to provoke her anymore.

"I'll excuse myself if we are done here. I hope you'll replace out the truth soon and clear my name." As soon as she finished talking, Daisy strode out of the room. She felt exhausted. Trouble would always replace you no matter where you ran, and you could do nothing but to face

it.

"Colonel, are you okay?" Mark walked up to Daisy right after he saw her. 'Damn it! Who's got the nerve to pick on her?' Mark was furious. The award ceremony of the military exercises hadn't even begun, Daisy was questioned. It was obvious that someone didn't want her to get the promotion!

"Yes. I'm fine. I'll leave early today. Will you tell the commander for me?" Daisy felt distressed. It wouldn't take long for everyone in the army base to know that she was questioned because of 'improper behavior'; they wouldn't care whether it was true, they just needed something to gossip about. She couldn't stay here. Hence she decided to take a day off and prepare herself for that.

"I will. But are you okay by yourself?" Mark was worried because Daisy looked as pale as a ghost. He blamed himself for not taking better care of her. He wondered why the disciplinary inspectors were after Daisy. Judging from Daisy's look, he knew it was something really bad.

"I'm okay. Just call me if there's an emergency." Daisy replied dispassionately and walked past Mark towards the parking lot before he saw her red eyes. Her little figure seemed fragile and lonely. Mark couldn't help but get worried. However, he didn't dare to follow her since Daisy forbade him to do so. To stick to the order was one of the most important rules for an aide like him.00000000000000
