"Honey, do you remember your promise?" Edward looked up from her chest, staring at Daisy hopefully. He wasn't sure if this counted as love, but all he wanted at this moment was Daisy's trust.

  "Yes, of course. Why are you asking me this all of a sudden?" Daisy asked curiously, wrapping her arms around Edward's neck.

  "Nothing. I was just afraid that you might have forgotten." Not wanting the matter to affect Daisy's military exercises, Edward decided to lie about it. Because things have reached this point and his uncertainty grew. Jessica's confidence made him panic. He had to get to the bottom of it carefully before he could know everything.

  Daisy made a face at him. "You're treating me like a three-year-old kid! Relax, your colonel isn't that forgetful." Daisy playfully pinched Edward's face. She had to pinch a bit harder because his skin was so smooth. How could his skin be so delicate?
