Chapter 965 Why Zemo Left JC Military Academy (Part One)
When Tom was finally done with Daisy's wound, it had been more than ten minutes. During the entire time, small beads of sweat lingered on his forehead that refused to disappear. Edward had been staring at his every action like a hawk. His cold eyes never left him. Not a minute went by when Tom was not nervous.
"Tom, thank you!" Daisy said, wanting to grin at him widely, but all she could manage was a small twitch of her mouth. The small smile seemed a bit forced. The pressure of Edward's presence made her feel more nervous than it did to Tom.
"Well, can I just say that I'm used to it? Daisy, please, just take care of yourself! Even if it's not for me, you should be more careful for Edward's sake! I really don't like seeing you like this. You are making all of us feel worried." Tom shook his head. He meant what he said. He was also worried about Edward. He didn't know how much longer Edward could stand constantly worrying over Daisy's safety. He seemed near to mental breakdowns because of her many injury scares. Truthfully, it was the first time Tom had seen Edward so deeply in love with a woman. However, it was a shame that the first woman he loved was someone who drove him out of his mind with anxiety. Might be that only a strong man like Edward, who had a heart of steel, could handle this kind of love.
"You just talk too much, Tom. Are you done with the wound or not? If you are, go to the dining room and eat. I'm sure you are hungry. Also, I don't want to hear you whining about how I'm intentionally starving you." This was just how Edward was. He just couldn't stand other people scolding his wife, even it was his brother and friend. According to him, Edward himself was the only one who could warn her about these things so sternly. He didn't want to see Daisy uncomfortable over others' grim words. When he heard Tom speaking so seriously to Daisy, Edward contradicted him even though he himself was also mad at Daisy. Tom was absolutely right, that was true. It was just that he shouldn't be the one saying them. That was Edward's job!
Daisy raised her head to look at Edward. However, Edward didn't even glance in her directio
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.
Edward's face was deadly dangerous to her. She couldn't remain calm anymore.
"Ha! Do you really not understand? Okay, that's fine. You have time to think about it. You can come find me when you have it figured out. I am patient. I can wait," Edward announced, turning around and walking straight out of the room. He went downstairs. 'Fine, if she really wants to pretend that she didn't understand what I meant, then she could definitely keep at it! I have a lot time to wait for her anyway.' Edward thought.
Daisy didn't expect that he would react this way at all. She was frozen in place as she stared at Edward's retreating back, her eyes full of surprise. She didn't know how to respond to his words, because she was so used to Edward's tenderness and affection at all times. His sudden callousness hurt her and made her feel like she had been abandoned by him. She hated this feeling. She felt lost and didn't know what to do.
"Mrs. Wu, your food is always so delicious! This tastes exactly how I remembered." With the tasty meal in front of him, Tom didn't feel shy to give Mrs. Wu his compliments. When he was this hungry, the food tasted even more delicious.
"Oh, Mr. Qin, stop flattering me. It's not as good as you are saying. But if you really like it, eat all of it! Mrs. Mu asked me to prepare this special meal just for you." Mrs. Wu gently smiled. There was a slight blush on her face as she heard Tom's compliments.
