"Did Tom tell you that Hero came out of his coma?" Daisy pursed her lips and stared at Edward with deep affection. In fact, she really didn't think that this man could be so generous and open-minded. From this matter, she had learned more about him and fallen even more deeply in love with him.
"Yes, he did. But I don't really want to visit him. I just want to go to the hospital with you." Edward was afraid that Daisy made a perfunctory promise, so he had to go personally.
"Well, don't bother. I'll go to the hospital to apply medicine as I promised." Daisy's lips were set in a pout of annoyance as Edward didn't trust her.
"I don't trust you. You always lie to me." Edward took out the medicine cabinet. She was often injured some time ago, so there was a lot of medicine.
"I didn't want to hurt myself. It was just an accident. Do you know what that means? It means that it wasn't something I could have avoided." Daisy didn't know why she felt so sweet to see Edward angry at her injury. This should be the feeling of being cared for, and she liked it very much.
"Tell me about it. What kind of accident could seriously hurt the mighty colonel? Lie down." Edward looked grim at the moment he saw her injury. The man's words dripped with venom.
"Maybe we'll hear it on the news. So during a training exercise, soldiers training in the wilderness happened on a major drug deal going down. The amount of drugs found was astounding. No one escaped, and none of the soldiers were killed or injured. Don't you think this news is very encouraging?" One eyebrow cocked, Daisy lay down as Edward talked. She didn't know if she would hear his roar or words of gentle comfort, but she thought that it was very likely that it would be the latter.
"Don't tell me that you went into the woods alone for survival training. There must have been hundreds of drug smugglers, right? You had so many soldiers, but they somehow couldn't beat the drug smugglers. You had to join the fight personally, so you were seriously hurt." The man glared at Daisy, gnashing his teeth. He applied medicine on Daisy's wounds, with unnecessary roughness. As Daisy expected, he was really burning in a frenzy of rage.
"Ouch! It hurts! Be gentle! There weren't hundreds of thugs. Just a dozen. Also, my soldiers are capable. They were training at that time. I didn't want to interrupt their training. Plus, they were tired, so I didn't ask them to join the fight." Daisy could have downed a dozen goons easily. The problem was that they all had guns. But Daisy was kind to them, so she didn't fight ruthlessly. Now she regretted it. She shouldn't have held back. The cold-blooded thugs were out for blood, and she got hurt.
"You have to feel pain to learn a lesson. The soldiers were training, but Mark followed you, didn't he?" As Daisy screamed out in pain, Edward started applying the medicine in a much gentler way, despite his angry words.
"We acted separately. Mark's team didn't actually run into those guys. I met them alone. He had all the other soldiers, so I called for backup immediately. Unfortunately, I was hurt before they arrived. I need more training. Then I won't be hurt so easily next time." Daisy muttered to herself, neglecting Edward who had turned livid with rage.
"Forget it. Be careful next time. I know it hurts." Edward sighed. Other women were worried about their husbands, but he had to worry about his wife every day. 'I know how to pick a wife, ' he thought.
"Are you angry?" Suddenly, Daisy turned around and stood up. Edward had no time to respond and change his facing. The hand that he was applying medicine with hit her wound hard. It was so painful that she cried, "Aaagh! It's killing me! You're doing this on purpose, right?" Tears in her eyes, Daisy pitifully blamed Edward.
