It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 722

Tom closed his eyes and told himself not to be angry or he would really be killed by Duke's arrogance. After quietly adjusting his mood, Tom went downstairs and soon left the place which drove him nuts.

S City was still in a dark color in the early morning minutes after the sun rose. Daisy was already on her way to the military base.

"Colonel, will you be promoted this time?" Mark asked tentatively, looking at Daisy in the rear view mirror.

"I'm not going to get promoted. Remember the tip-off last time? It affected me a lot. So, even if I performed deeds of merit in the military drill, it was useless." Daisy didn't care if she could get a promotion. She just wanted to do her job well.

"But you'll not know when you'll get a promotion if you miss this opportunity," Mark pouted, feeling a little bit unhappy with what had happened to Daisy.

"It doesn't matter. I am quite happy now. Anyway, I got what I want. There is no need to be greedy. Just as the old saying goes, "A man who is contented will be happy." Daisy smiled mildly. She used to work hard to match with Edward. She had lost that impulse now, having no enthusiasm and perseverance for promotion.

"I'm just angry. Why do you have to make sacrifices every time? That's unfair. I thought you would be able to regain people's approval in the military drill this time even though you missed the opportunity in the closed training the last time. I didn't expect that this drill would still be ruined by someone." Mark was angry at the very mention of it. He did not understand why his colonel's merit and strength were always ignored by them.

"I'm not angry, so you don't have to be angry. You can say that in front of me but don't tell anyone else. I can't protect you if you do that. Did you hear me?" Daisy knew Mark was speaking for her but she was still worried that he was too noisy to keep his mouth shut.

"Yes, I did, Colonel." Mark was not that stupid to say anything in front of others. He could just complain. He didn't want to get Daisy into trouble, after all,.

"Okay. Drive carefully." Looking from the car window, Daisy saw patches of fallen leaves were flying along with the Humvee. It was a little cold on that late autumn morning but she was still in her summer uniform; She did not feel cold at all.

Winter was Daisy's favorite season of the year because the cold could hide her heavy sadness. Only in this way would she not be defeated by her painful experience of the past.

Daisy sighed softly and turned to pick up the phone next to her. After thinking for a while, she fidgeted on the keyboard with a smile on her face and sent Edward a message. Obviously, Daisy was in a good mood.

Edward was woken up by his message alert tone. He didn't know why Justin had set up such a pop song as a ringtone.

Edward held out his slender hand to his side to feel the space beside him. He didn't feel her soft body next to him as usual. He was used to that but still like a hard hobby, he would still reach out his hand every morning to that side when he got up.

He reluctantly opened his eyes, ran his fingers through his messy short hair and then picked the phone next to the bed up. He frowned quizzically when he saw the sender's name and then quickly clicked on the message. A warm message immediately caught his eyes and completely woke him up. "Baby, open the window. Have you heard the wind is telling you I miss you?"

Although the message was short, Edward was thrilled. He went to the window, as Daisy said. He drew the thick curtains aside and opened the window. He held out his hand upon feeling the chill of late Autumn and tried to catch something in the wind. He knew he would catch nothing but it somehow made him feel that Daisy was beside him.

"Baby, it's still early in the morning. Do you miss me that much? Do you want to see me?" Edward quickly sent back an erotic message to Daisy and then looked out the window. 'This little woman doesn't like to say anything mushy but she really surprised me this time', he thought.

While Edward was indulging in these sweet moments, Justin ran in without knocking the door. He was dressed very cool and looked very cute.
