It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1117

It took Kevin an hour to finish reporting the work to the Commander. It was almost time for him to go home, but he still had a lot of work left to do, so he needed to stay behind for a while.

Standing outside Daisy's office, Kevin hesitated for a fraction of a second before he raised his hand to knock on her door. Thinking of the conversation with the Commander, he sighed with profound resignation. The Commander had assigned Kevin to assist with the new mission. For that Kevin would have to leave for a few days once again. In the past, leaving home didn't pose any trouble for him. But now after marrying Leena, he was reluctant to do so. They seldom got time together and it bothered him so much. Kevin didn't want to act in defiance of the Commander's orders, but he was tired of this way of life.

"Come in," Daisy answered the door without raising her head. She sat in her chair, examining the sniper rifle in her hands while meticulously recording the data on paper.

"What are you doing?" Kevin asked as he walked in. Watching Daisy, he once again realized that he didn't have feelings for her anymore. He had left his infatuation far behind.

"Oh! I'm checking for the structure, range, and deadliness of AK-9. Are you done with the meeting with the Commander?" Daisy put the sniper rifle aside and asked Kevin with curiosity. She wasn't into gossip, but she was concerned about Leena. She hadn't seen that girl for so many days and missed her quite a lot.

"Yeah. Did you find anything?" Kevin asked casually as he sat down on the couch. Truthfully, he wasn't very interested in the sniper at the moment.

"Not yet. I'm still studying it. But now you can tell me what happened." Daisy leaned back against her chair comfortably, paying attention to Kevin.

"Nothing. I was in a hurry so I didn't notice you." Kevin forced a smile. Everything had been going well until he stumbled upon Leena talking cheerfully with another guy at the coffee shop. His heart plummeted once again.

"Don't lie to me. I can tell you have something on your mind from the distant look in your eyes. I heard it was Leena. What happened? Did you quarrel with her?" Daisy asked tentatively, even as she realized that couldn't be the case. A mature and sensible man like Kevin wouldn't quarrel with his wife.

"Lee told you? When did he become as gossipy as Mark?" Kevin gave her a helpless and wry smile. He should punish Lee. Only then would he restrain himself from tattling on Kevin behind his back.

"Maybe he is subconsciously influenced. Did you notice he is not as prissy as before?" Daisy envied Kevin, who had Lee as his guard. Lee was meticulous about everything. She hoped Mark could follow Lee's example, but instead Lee got affected.

"You're right. It looks like Mark is the bad egg. I need to punish him sometime," Kevin teased, knowing he wouldn't do anything to Mark.

"Good. I won't bother myself to do it then. But don't try to change the topic. What's wrong with you and my girl Leena? Did you bully her?" Daisy pinned Kevin with a sharp and penetrating look, forcing him to tell her the truth.

"Just like you said, she is your girl. With you as her sister, I wouldn't dare to bully her." Kevin smiled bitterly. He hadn't done anything to Leena, but Daisy already declared that Leena was her girl. Kevin must have a death wish if he truly tried to bully Leena now.

"Uh huh. And you shouldn't try to either. I'll never forgive you for it." Daisy wore a self-satisfied smirk on her face. Obviously, this was something Kevin and Leena had to deal with themselves. As an outsider, she didn't mean to interfere between them.

"Why do I suddenly feel threatened? Am I allowed to counter-attack?" Kevin checked his watch. Although he was short on time, he was not in a hurry to leave.
