"Good. Then hand over the report to me as soon as possible. And Daisy, have you canceled your vacation in advance? If yes, then write the process as a report and hand it over. Well, you can leave if you are done here."

  The commander knew that they had a lot of work, so it was inappropriate to hold them. The tasks they were about to manage were quite significant. A massive gunfight had occurred. It must have caused a certain degree of disturbance in the society. The leaders in the military would definitely keep a keen eye on this issue. So they needed to prepare a detailed report.

  "Yes, Commander, I am going back to work today, and I will finish the task immediately." Daisy frowned, but still took the order and left. Kevin left with her too.

  "Why don't you take another day off? Is Mr. Mu recovering well?" They walked side by side. Kevin sighed with relief in his heart seeing Daisy wasn't as disturbed as yesterday. She was recovering from the depression and helplessness.

  "Oh come on, you know everything, there's a lot of pending work. As for Edward, he is doing good, thank you! Didn't you go home last night?" Daisy always turned soft when she spoke about Edward. But soon her tone got worried as she recalled Leena's unusual behavior from last night.

  "Yeah! I've been working continuously. Forget about going home; I didn't even get the time to eat." Kevin extended his hand and lightly patted his aching temple. He laughed at himself helplessly, and a sense of tiredness spread over his handsome face.

  "Have you called Leena?" Daisy paused a little with eyebrows frowning. She was afraid to hear a negative answer from him. She knew Kevin. He would always forget everything and everyone around him once he got involved in work. So she was concerned whether Leena

  person with no secrets at all?

  "Do you think this is important? Have you decided to keep a certain distance from me?" Kevin laughed at himself. He feared that they would not be friends once Daisy came to know about his real feelings for her. That's why for years, Kevin had hidden his unrequited love for her with great difficulty. But ultimately he could not help revealing his feeling, and now she had discovered it.

  "No, you don't love me. You only love the illusion of me. You think I'm feeble. What you feel for me is sympathy, not love. You have forced yourself to confuse sympathy with love. As time goes by, an illusion emerged in your mind, you think you've loved me for a long time, and it's not a passing whim. I don't know whether you agree with me or not."

  Daisy watched him. They had known each other for many years and they got along really well. Although she didn't have much experience in love, she knew how people felt when they were secretly falling in love with somebody. They felt grieved when they could not show their love and they didn't get a response from the one they loved. She didn't have such feelings for Kevin. Instead, she had only felt it for Edward.
