It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 967

"You very well know that with a job like mine, it's normal to get hurt during the training or missions. God, even death is a normality to us soldiers. So, I really can't promise you that I'll return home safe and sound each day. I know my safety worries you, and I also know that you are unhappy about it. Between you and my career, if I have to make a choice, I will choose you. I will definitely choose you, no matter what." Daisy turned her head to gaze at him this time. Her eyes were brimming with confusion. She felt like she was trapped inside a small box, like something was closing in on her. And no matter how hard she tried, she felt like she couldn't get out.

"But will you be truly happy if you quit the job you love? And can you guarantee that you won't blame me in the future, for making you leave your work? I admit, I am intense. I am controlling. But I am just really worried about you! I was angry too, but only because you didn't tell me the truth. As for the rest, I will do my best to ignore all that."

On one hand, he would be happy if she actually quit her job, that was for sure. But on the other, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her. At the same time, he was worried for himself too. After all, he knew how much she loved her career. If she left her job, it wouldn't be a problem in the present. However, it was hard for him to tell if she would hold a grudge against him in the future, because she would be quitting only for him. He couldn't persuade himself to take the risk. He also wouldn't be the person who extinguished her passion to serve the country.

"Well, it might take a while for me to get used to it. But believe me, it will get better as time goes by. So don't worry." This was not a sudden thought that had come into her mind. She was so shocked at the secret she found out this morning, that she couldn't completely concentrate during her training session either. That was why she got her leg injured in the first place. Before today, she didn't know the reason why Zemo had left, without even saying good-bye to her. He saved her, but in the process seriously hurt himself. Even as he recovered from his injuries, he couldn't be a soldier anymore because his foot was badly wounded. He wasn't even fit to go through the normal training sessions. Training as a member of special forces was out of the question.

"No, I don't believe so, at all. Just tell me, Daisy. What happened? I know you well. You couldn't have made the decision just because I constantly worry over you. I know very well that I'm important to you. But I also know that you wouldn't rush to this decision based on my feelings. I don't have that kind of power on you." Edward finished speaking, a self-deprecating smile on his face. He loved her very much, and that was why he also knew her so well.

"Do you remember Zemo? What I have achieved to this day is all because he sacrificed himself." Daisy smiled bitterly. She was very suspicious about what happened years ago, so she had asked a classmate of JC Military Academy to inquire into it. Today morning, she received the documents he sent to her. When she read those files, she was so shocked that she couldn't even move. She would never have imagined that this was the reason why Zemo had been hiding for so many years. He asked everyone to keep the secret from her, so that she could continue her career without feeling like she owed him something. But she knew the truth now. So how could she continue doing her job without feeling guilty?

"What do you mean by sacrifice? He is still living just fine." Edward knew the answer in his heart. He knew what his wife meant by her words, but he chose to ignore it. If he could guess, Zemo had been hiding something from Daisy all these years. Now Daisy finally knew, but it was something she couldn't accept easily.
