It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 729

"You are probably not telling the truth! I prefer to think this way so I could avoid pressure." She knew the way she talked would surprise him greatly. Nevertheless, this was who she was now. She was greatly influenced by Edward and learned nothing good but the excessively suave manner.

"Hey, you don't really care about hurting my feelings, do you? We had spent years together, fighting between life and death with each other. Is this how you treat me? Come on, I really meant it when I said those words!" Her words actually stung in his ears. Zemo tossed his hair unconsciously out of distress. A touch of sadness seized his heart all of a sudden. He couldn't tell what was really going on with him. The only thing he knew was that they could never get back to the beautiful old days when they trusted each other and would literally talk about anything in the world.

"Come on. You always boast about your heart being tough, like super diamond? How could I possibly hurt your feelings by mere words? What now? Has your heart just turned to glass? Easy to shatter?" Daisy opened the car door with a big grin. Mark had already been waiting for her for too long. He was a smart soldier and could always guess his colonel's mind correctly.

"Well, to be honest with you, your words could be quite hurtful sometimes. Whenever I am in front of you, my super diamond heart somehow turns to vulnerable glass." Zemo laughed and shook his head slowly. He wished that he could talk with her all the time. The way they hanged out with each other made him feel real and relaxed. There was so much he wanted to tell her but it was just too hard to find the right wording.

"Alrighty. Now let's talk business. I need to do some errands. I will see you tonight at Westin." Daisy smiled generously as she gave him the restaurant name. Her eyes were sparkling with joy. Westin Western Restaurant was a renowned restaurant in S City. It actually belonged to the FX International Group. The food there was to Daisy's taste. However, the reason she chose this restaurant was because she believed in its reputation and thought it was worth taking Zemo there. She grew up in S City but she seldom had the opportunities to explore the local restaurants due to her military duties. Westin was the first restaurant that came to her mind when she thought of tonight's meet-up with Zemo.

"Sure! Take your time. I will be there waiting for you." Zemo hanged the phone up and stared blankly at the dead screen. Next second, he realized something and quickly saved her number to his phonebook. She really meant a lot to him. Zemo could not afford to lose contact with her again. He had to save her number in case she forgot to call him. God knew how long he had waited for her call.

Meanwhile, Daisy was doing exactly the same thing, she saved Zemo's number in her phonebook. He was such a good old friend of hers and she wished to keep close contact with him. It would be a lot better to just dial his number than to check his business card from time to time.

"Colonel, who are we visiting in the jail today?" The curious Mark opened his mouth as soon as she ended the call. He wondered about the kind of person they were going to see later and what would his colonel exactly do in the jail?

"Look at you! How forgetful! Hero is going on trial next week. We need to hand over some important documents to the jail personnel." Daisy sighed silently. She could still clearly remember what Hero told her last time. She couldn't help but feel concerned about the future.

"Next week? So soon! I thought it would be late this year! Do we still need to verify something further?" Hero did admit to his crimes but in order to give him a proper sentence, they still needed to provide solid evidences to the court.

"Maybe the evidence is already sufficient. As far as I am concerned, many hands are on this case right now! This, however, does not concern us at all. We should just mind our own business and provide cooperation whenever they require. Our job is done as long as the case is closed with mutual effort. We should stay out of their way for good."
