It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1145

"It seems they can't wait to catch the show," Daisy joked as she shed her uniform. A soldier standing beside her was waiting to take it from her hand, and he treated it respectfully when he did so.

"It's educational." Kevin was just in ordinary fatigues, and rolled up his sleeves. He was ready for this.

"Come on! They're not here to learn. This is a nice break for them." Daisy raised her brows and took a cold glance at the soldiers. Everywhere her gaze settled, the noisy soldiers quieted down instantly, as if there were an on/off button to control their mouths and Daisy had just switched it off. The camp went quiet. Everyone was afraid that Daisy would punish them by putting them through additional training if they made so much as a peep.

"Then let them watch. You don't give a rat's arse what they think anyway." Kevin laughed. The soldiers were extremely quiet whenever Daisy was around, because none of them wanted to end up in one of her excruciating training programs. She was an absolute stickler for the rules. Her training programs were death-defying adventures where someone could be seriously injured if they fooled around. No one wanted to sign up for that.

"Right. Shut up and fight!" Daisy swung a blow at Kevin even before she finished her sentence, leaving him no time to prepare. He stepped back and she missed, because her blows were usually slightly slower than his. She hated to admit it, but it might be that women were slower than men. That thought burned in her mind.

The match between these two top-notch officers brought out officers and grunts alike, and they were cheering and egging them on. The speed and force of their moves impressed the soldiers. Watching two titans pummeling each other was a lot of fun to these guys. As a woman, Daisy showed them that women could be just as forceful and fast as men.

This match was really intended as a demonstration. The fight was supposed to pause every once in awhile, so they could discuss ideas and skills to bring to the soldiers' own training regimens and combat repertoires. But Daisy and Kevin were really throwing themselves into this fight, and there was no pausing, no quarter given. Of course, both contestants avoided hitting each other's vitals.

Daisy had run a lot of combat drills at JC Military Academy, and she'd run into several soldiers who were bigger and stronger than she was. She took great pleasure in putting these men in their place. So Kevin wasn't intimidating to her at all. Her lips curved into a smile, every move of hers felt confident.

Kevin was glad to see her so self-assured. She had been doubting her combat skills ever since Edward got shot. She felt bad she couldn't protect him, so she hadn't been as decisive and hard-nosed as she was before. It showed during training, too. Right now, the Daisy he knew and loved was back. The same arrogance and reckless confidence he fell in love with were on full display here. Kevin made the right decision to stage this fight. It brought out the best in her, and every bruise was worth it.

The sun was shining, bringing a welcome warmth to the cold winter. While Daisy and Kevin were sparring, Edward was busy getting the computer Daisy asked for.

Every time Edward went out in public, he always caused a stir. After all, he was a devilishly handsome man with an obscenely expensive luxury car. When Louisa caught sight of him, she was stunned, thinking that he was the most handsome man she had ever seen and she didn't think she'd find anyone more charming than him. Just seeing him made her forget about Kevin. Compared to Edward, Kevin didn't seem so wonderful anymore.

"Why did you bring the laptop over yourself?" Daisy asked with a happy smile. She draped an arm around Edward, ignoring Louisa completely.
