It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1567

"Major General, can we end this punishment now?" Lee asked a bit hesitantly, pulling him out of his thoughts. The soldiers were being punished and had been half-standing in the field for more than two hours now. They had also missed lunch time. Lee thought that maybe this was enough.

"Yes. That's enough. Let them go eat lunch," said Kevin. He glanced at the time on his watch and nodded in agreement. This kind of punishment was a necessary evil. If he didn't punish them for messing up, they might never learn. That was not something he wanted to see from his subordinates.

"Understood, Major General," Lee saluted and immediately ran to the training field to relieve them from the hell they had been in. He had a feeling that the Major General might go easy on them. It must have had something to do with the phone call he had just answered. But that was just his guess.

Looking at Lee's retreating back, the corners of Kevin's lips lifted into a smirk. Then, he turned around and walked to his office. He still had some paperwork to finish.

"Looks like I am no longer the Devil Drillmaster anymore. You are the real Devil here," a voice said from behind him as he walked into the building. He stopped and turned to look at the owner of the voice. Daisy was quickly walking towards him. It looked like she was in a hurry.

"I learned it all from you," Kevin immediately countered. He rubbed his nose a bit sheepishly. He was always worried about his soldiers. And this time, he had lost his cool and decided to punish them harshly for their mistake. He wanted them to remember the pain and not repeat their errors. It was for their own good.

"Hey, don't drag me into this. You make it sound like I really am a cruel drillmaster," Daisy protested. She was strict with the soldiers, that was true. But she would never admit that she was cruel and cold towards them while they were in training. She surely didn't deserve that nickname.

"Where are you going? You seem to be in a hurry," asked Kevin.

"Oh, right! I almost forgot. I have some urgent errands to run downtown, so I don't have time to watch over the Falcon training. You can take over, right? Sorry to dump this on you in the last minute." The Falcon was a specially formed secret squad of elite soldiers. So the less people knew about it, the better. They were keeping it under wraps. That was why only Kevin and Daisy were in charge of their training. Now that Daisy was occupied, Kevin had to take her place for the day.

"No problem, don't worry about it. You take care of things on your side," Kevin replied while nodding his head. Daisy didn't tell him what exactly she was going to do this afternoon, but he wasn't planning to ask again. Everyone had their own secrets, especially when it came to professions like theirs. Kevin figured that whatever she was going to do was either a secret mission or some personal matter. He had no right to ask.
