"I was afraid that you would get hurt by this. You should know, no matter what I do, it is only for your happiness. I have donated some money to the army base to purchase munitions this time, not because I want to ask for promotion prospects for you. I know who you are. You wouldn't be unworthy of it. All the things I have done are to tell them that you are not alone. You are with me, and FX International Group. We're right behind you."
Edward looked at her with a firm gaze. He promised he would never interfere with her work and kept his words. So he could tell her frankly that he didn't drag her down.
"Sorry. I am too sensitive. I didn't mean to blame you. It's just that I dislike it that I am always the last one to know everything. I want to feel that I'm worthy of your trust. You are my love and I don't want you to set me apart from your world on purpose. I hope you understand me. I don't want any secrets between us. Of course, I am not saying that you need to show everything to me and become 'transparent'. I don't want to make a big commotion about nothing. I just hope that I can know the things related to me in advance. I don't want to be a puppet."
Daisy steadied her rising anxiety. The moment Edward got hurt, she decided that she would never ponder over anything alone no matter how many questions she had. She would communicate with him frankly about everything. Only through this way could she save her relationship and nobody would be able to take advantage of their mutual suspicion.
"Come here." Edward signed slightly. This was just a small thing. She got extremely upset about it. What if she got to know that he was hiding something more important? She might get mad about that too! Despite all this, he could not tell her until he made everything clear. He didn't want her to get distracted because of it. All she needed to concentrate on was to stand out in the military exercise report this time. As for other things, she didn't need to worry. Or she might lose her chance of promotion. Although she didn't reveal her eagerness for the promotion, he knew she must be desperate for it. Because as a hot-blooded soldier like Daisy, a military medal would confirm her capability. Any other praise could hardly match it in her mind.
"What?" She didn't walk towards him. Instead, she took a few steps backward. She didn't know what she had said to irritate him. But she was just expressing her thoughts. So she didn't think she did anything wrong.
"What? You are a colonel, and I am just a patient. Would a colonel be afraid of a patient?" Edward felt his girl was quite funny. She just made tons of suggestions and comments to him and he was almost stunned and speechless. He didn't know when she became so logical and talkative. But now she got confused in a second.
