Chapter 736 Green-Eyed Monster (Part One)
"Congratulations. Your dream has finally come true. You've married the man you love." Zemo knew that the man Daisy talked about was the love of her life. Whenever she talked about him, she would get a faraway look in her eyes. Back when they trained at the academy together, Zemo always refrained from this topic as much as possible to avoid upsetting Daisy.
"Thank you. I have a happy marriage." Daisy grinned at the delightful thought. She was comfortable with Belinda and Zemo, occasionally playing jokes with them. Edward was a different story. Although he was an arrogant bully, she could have him eat out of the palm of her hand.
"I can tell from your big smile. How's life in the army? It must be fantastic." Zemo wanted to know more about the military life that he had yearned for a long time. He got excited when he brought up the topic.
"You know how it is. It's all about drills. The soldiers follow the same pattern every day." Outsiders often thought that the military life was mysterious, but it was actually quite boring.
"But you enjoy it enough to never get tired of it." Although their bodies were dripping with sweat during their training days, they were still blissfully happy. Zemo often indulged in those memories after he left the military.
"I have grown accustomed to it. If I leave the army one day, I don't know how I'd adapt." Daisy fiddled with her hair in embarrassment. Truth be told, she really liked her life in the military. It wasn't because she enjoyed the honor brought by her senior rank. But she had invested herself wholeheartedly to the job, and she found it hard to step back.
"Since you don't want to leave, you should stay. I think it suits you best." It had been a long time since they last saw each other. They couldn't converse as casually as they did before. It was as if they were afraid of saying something they shouldn't.
"Maybe I feel this way because of the routine. Well, let's talk about something else. Tell me about your life. Do you have a family now?" Daisy blinked and stared straight at Zemo, not giving him a chance to lie.
"It's difficult to find someone like you, " Zemo said sadly. Daisy wasn't sure if he was joking.
"Come on, why would you want to marry a girl li
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
ut him.
"No! I don't want to! He's an annoying brat!" Justin whined angrily. He really disliked Martin.
"Why? Is it because you can't bear someone who's more outstanding than you?" Edward frowned. If that was the case, he had to pay attention to this issue.
"No! I don't think he's better than me!" Justin grumbled, strongly disagreeing with Edward's assumption.
"If not, then why are you so bothered? Go to sleep. Don't think too much." Edward bent down to give his son a gentle kiss. He didn't force Justin to accept Martin as his friend. It would only make him resist the idea more. Edward decided not to interfere with it. He just offered appropriate advice and didn't stop him from doing what he wanted.
"Okay. Good night, dad." Justin was sleepy, so he didn't continue the conversation. He closed his eyes and soon fell into deep sleep.
Edward patted Justin with deep affection and shook his head helplessly. An adult couldn't always discern a child's thoughts. Although Justin was upset about the topic now, it was very likely that he would forget about it when he woke up the next morning.
In the late autumn evening, a handful of stars decorated the sky. After leaving Justin's room, Edward stood on the balcony, still holding the phone that he hadn't put down the whole evening. He never thought that he would wait for a woman who was out late at night.
Finally, he decided to call Daisy. He was really worried about her, so he didn't care if he was disturbing them.
