It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 403

"No, I can't. It's too dangerous. Let me handle them." Luke would never let Edward step directly in the path of danger.

"We'll be okay, just follow Mrs. Mu's instructions." Once Edward ordered something like that, Luke knew there was no room for negotiation.

"Okay, Mr. Mu. Should I notify Mr. Jonathan?" Luke pursed his lips. He knew his young master's temper. He had to follow orders, as much as he didn't want to.

"No. Kevin has a troop detachment heading our way." Edward remembered he hadn't mentioned Jonathan's secret identity to Daisy before. He thought it was not the right time for her to know about it now. So he decided to tell her later. They were two kinds of action-oriented people in the world, and they were opposite sides of the coin. One was the shady figure from the underworld, another was the righteous army soldier. He couldn't imagine how they could get along if Jonathan's true identity was revealed.

"Okay." Luke slowed down. Since he knew the army would step in, he wasn't as nervous as before. But it was still a long way from the army base. Would they get here in time? Luke wondered.

"Sniper rifle AS50, 14.1 kg unloaded, magazine holds fifty 12.7 mm bullets, floating muzzle design, long range, fast ejection with little backlash, high rate of fire, high lethality, anti-materiel. Can penetrate armor and deal with tanks and armored vehicles. You do know how to get a girl the sweetest gift."

Daisy smiled charmingly. She felt excited whenever it came to the things that interested her. So she couldn't help blurting out more details about the sniper rifle.

"Of course. I'm Edward Mu. I can get all the nice things in the world." Edward was happy to accept the praise. He was easy to please. As long as Daisy gave him a little appreciation, he would feel like walking in the air.

"Pay attention. They're gaining on us. Don't give them the chance to touch our car." Daisy raised her head and looked at the byway which led to the rural area. She sneered and quickly assembled the rifle.

"Okay!" Edward smiled conceitedly and floored the pedal. The car whirred by like the wind, picking up the leaves and making them swirling down. They left that scene behind in a second. His woman was indeed extraordinary. She was beautiful as she pieced the rifle together, and she did it blindingly fast.

"When we hit a deserted area, I'll use the rifle to blow out their tires. Judging from their flashlights, they are speeding to keep up with us. Seems we've fallen into their trap, and they had this planned out. Apparently, they're using a lift kit, otherwise they wouldn't be able to follow so closely, "
