It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 735

When Daisy arrived at the Westin Western Restaurant, Zemo hadn't shown up yet. Considering that they hadn't seen each other for years, she deliberately reserved a small private room. This way, they wouldn't be disrupted by the surroundings while catching up with each other.

Zemo left his place and headed for the restaurant at an early time. But because he wasn't familiar with S City, he spent a long time finding his way. Additionally, it was the rush hour. He ended up arriving half an hour late at the restaurant.

"Sorry, I'm late," He immediately apologized as soon as he approached the private room.

"It's alright. I haven't been here for a long time. Take a seat, please." Daisy had a beautiful smile, especially for people who rarely saw it. Her smile was extremely bright and captivating, like the most colorful rainbow in the sky. A person could get intoxicated by her smile.

"It seems the military uniform suits you better. Two bars and three stars, a colonel! That's amazing! You're doing quite well in the army." Looking at the handsome military uniform on Daisy, Zemo couldn't help twisting in pain in his heart. Becoming a soldier had been his dream when he was young, but he couldn't achieve it anymore. He could do nothing but wallow in sadness at his failed dream.

"Zemo, are you okay?" Daisy asked softly, seeing Zemo's bright smile suddenly dim made her worry.

"Oh, it's nothing! I was just thinking what a cruel twist of fate. If I hadn't left JC Military Academy that year, could I have attained the same achievements you have?" Zemo held back his sadness. Although many years had passed, his dream of becoming an excellent soldier never changed.

"Of course, you would. You'd definitely do better than me. You always bested me in special training, so your achievements would undoubtedly be greater than mine." Daisy had always been curious why Zemo left the academy all of a sudden. What on earth happened to him? Whatever it was, it must have been quite serious because he didn't even say goodbye. She wanted to know what happened because she was worried about him.

"Don't be so modest! You were the most capable female student in the eyes of the instructors. Every one of them wanted to have you in their team. How could I compete with you?"

Everyone in the academy knew that Daisy Ouyang was the most excellent student of their batch. At the beginning, she ranked last when she entered the academy. No one imagined that she would rise up the ranks to the top. But she dedicated herself to her training. All the blood, sweat, and tears she shed was a testament to her great determination. Other people might be oblivious to her efforts, but Zemo knew. After all, he had trained with her the entire time and encouraged her to improve.

"You are as modest as ever. Well, how's everything? You look good. It seems that you're living a happy life." Daisy sat upright as a soldier always did. Perhaps due to habit, she did not feel her muscles stiffen from the position.

"I'm doing fine. I'm managing a family business. But I basically just inherited it, so there is nothing worth showing off." Zemo smiled bitterly. He didn't want to be involved in the family business. But because he was born into it, he had no choice but to yield to reality.

"Most big companies are managed by second generations nowadays. The most important thing is what you will do with your identity. You either enjoy life and squander the money your family had earned, or you improve the business and lead it into a new field. You still have options. And you chose the latter one, didn't you?"

With regards to rich heirs, Daisy could name a lot from the people around her, such as Duke and Belinda, not to mention the childish man in her home. All of them were typical rich heirs, weren't they? She often saw scandals on the news about a rich man bullying others, or some rich woman behaving inappropriately. But her husband and friends stayed away from these scandals. This was the reason why she gained a new understanding on rich heirs.

"I'm still trying, but it's just a small difference. I don't think I can make any impressive progress. After all, I didn't learn this in the past. Sometimes, it's hard for me to operate things smoothly." Zemo took a sip of water. A son usually inherited his father's career, which was what most sons fought for in rich families. But he was not one of them. He had no desire to succeed his father. All he wanted was very simple. He only wished to do things he liked, which included being a soldier. But obviously, he had missed his chance. There was nothing but regret in his heart. He could never get rid of the disappointment he felt. But in that situation, he had to leave and it was his responsibility.
