"Honey, people don't praise someone like that." Edward felt speechless. It seemed that Daisy practiced all the things she had learnt in the past on him.
"Is there anything wrong?" asked Daisy. Daisy was not as comfortable as Edward was. Let's look at Edward. He was leaning on the chair comfortably, making a phone call with Daisy. How about Daisy? Daisy had to focus on the documents that Hank just gave to her. Simultaneously, she also had to spare part of her attention to talk to Edward.
"Forget it, I should not be so serious with you. It is me who always compromises at last. By the way, I have to go abroad for some urgent business later," Edward replied. He lifted his hand to look at the time on his watch, to know how much time he still had to talk to Daisy before he left for his business trip. The decision of going abroad was made just now. This decision was made in a rush because those urgent cases could only be solved by Edward. So, he had no other choice but to go there himself and take care of the matters.
"What? What about the performance of the new weapons? You're not going to be around for the performance, right?" On hearing this, Daisy finally stopped her reading, with her eyebrows knitting together in a little frown.
"Don't worry! I will come back on time to participate in the performance. But in comparison to the performance, I think, you should care more about me, shouldn't you?" Edward said. Just then he stood up, as Anna came in again, pointing at the watch to remind him that it was time to go.
"Then, will you make me worry?" Daisy did not answer Edward's question, but rather asked him a new question. It was impossible for her to say that she wouldn't be worried about Edward. However, Daisy really did not want to let her fears become another pressure for him. Therefore, instead of telling Edward that she did worry about him, Daisy rather asked him for a promise, a promise to keep himself safe, while he was away.
"No, I won't, honey. I will never let you worry." Edward promised as Daisy wanted. He picked up his coat and walked out of the room while saying that. But at this moment, he didn't know that he had made a promise that he couldn't keep later. Soon, Daisy would become really worried about Edward's safety.
"In that case, what else do I have to worry about?" Daisy said, with a soft and comforting smile on her face. Even though Edward could not see her smiling face, Daisy felt that it was a silent comfort that she could give to Edward.
