"Does her family know?" Daisy asked, lowering her head to her outstretched fingers. She thought Duke loved his sister so much that he wasn't supposed to be quiet about things like this.
"Yeah! I just left her home around noontime. It was not easy to handle." Kevin shuddered when thinking of Duke's cold attitude towards him.
"What about your family? Do they accept Leena?" Daisy knew Kevin's background. His family had great prestige, like the noble relatives of the Emperor in ancient times.
"Don't worry! I will protect her from harm." Kevin thought what Daisy said made sense, but he wouldn't be caught unprepared. If he hadn't taken this into account, he wouldn't even think of marrying Leena.
"Kev, you're like a brother to me. I hope you can keep Leena safe. You should know how much Leena means to her family, even if you don't have me around to tell you that. So you know the consequences if you do something wrong." Daisy's warning was not an exaggeration. Because she had seen how those guys pampered and spoiled Leena when she was with Edward. It was almost appalling.
"Um! I've seen it too, and I know how to deal. So don't worry about me." From the way Daisy addressed him just now, Kevin knew she talked to him as a friend, not a college.
"Good! Brother-in-law, welcome to our big family!"
Daisy said teasingly, winking, and reached out a hand. Fate is a magic thing. Daisy had never thought anything dramatic would happen in her life.
"Uh! Brother-in-law? I think it's a little inappropriate." Kevin said and smiled bitterly. So they were family, just not exactly how he hoped.
"It's not inappropriate. Leena is my sister, then you are my brother-in-law since you married her, right?" Daisy said and chuckled. The thought of him being her brother-in-law was special! But he didn't like it. So what should she call Kevin from now on? Major General Gu? Or Kev? Or was Brother-in-law better?
"Come on. Apparently I'm an easy target. So what were the Commander's orders?" Kevin knew Daisy just came back from the Commander's office, so he decided to change the subject.
"Oh! Nothing important. He just asked me about the military exercises. So when is the ceremony?" Daisy didn't intend to miss the chance to tease Kevin. She changed the subject back again.
"I'll decide that after the military exercises. Leena doesn't like complicated things, so it will be up to her!" Kevin was amazed at Leena's unconcerned attitude. As a girl, how could she have no expectation of her own once-in-a-lifetime wedding?
"This is Leena's style. She likes simplifying everything. To put it bluntly, she is lazy dealing with people. Anyway, she is agreeable and you're lucky to have her." Although Daisy hadn't spent much time with Leena, she had her figured out.
