Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 160 Is Someone Coming

"People say no one offers help without any ulterior motive. That makes your act suspicious." Daisy

looked at Kevin with her brows raised. There was a hint of slyness in her bright eyes.

"Really? Am I that transparent?" Kevin smiled and thought, 'Since when did I become a cunning person

in her eyes?'

"Aren't you? As the chief of my rival unit, you are bribing me in this way. I wonder whether you are

trying to mislead me or test me." Daisy knew he meant well. However, she resisted his goodwill,

because she cared about her sense of fulfillment too much.

"Colonel, can't you consider this as a personal favor?" Kevin casually crossed his legs with a

mischievous look.

"Huh! A wise chief won't be overly concerned about his rival unit. The concern is merely a bait. You are

just feigning concern to realize your scheme." Daisy looked solemn as if she had proven that Kevin had

an ulterior motive.

"Bravo, Colonel! Your judgment is splendid." Kevin applauded her. "But as an officer, don't you think it's

foolish to miss a chance to penetrate into the rival unit?" He continued with a smile.

"If you keep baiting, I won't be so cautious. But if you act like you are up to something at every step, I

am not dumb enough to fall into your trap." Daisy sipped a mouthful of water. They seldom argued with

each other.

"Haha, "You're much smarter than I thought. I had planned this for a long time but I still failed to

mislead you. It's a huge mistake to underestimate your enemy in strategy." Kevin was resigned to her

retort. It seemed she was resolved to refuse his help.

Daisy was relieved to hear his words and she gave a faint smile.

"Thank you for your concern anyway. But I hope I can handle this on my own, no matter what the

outcome will be," Daisy said sincerely. She wasn't as aggressive as she had been a minute ago. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"OK. I see. It's lunchtime. Can we have lunch together?" Kevin didn't force his help on her. He knew

Daisy was an independent and ambitious woman. He respected her for that and never meddled. This

time, he had hoped to do something for her before he went back to the capital city. He had expected

that she would turn him down, but he hadn't anticipated it would be so brutal. Just like in relationship,

she didn't give him a chance also.

"But I still have a lot of work to do." Daisy frowned with reluctance.

"Let's go. Work is important, but meals are more important." Kevin ignored her hesitation and pushed

her toward the door.

"Miss Leena, we have arrived at the army base. Do you want me to call Mrs. Mu for you or would you

like to call her yourself?" Luke casually asked Leena, who seemed quite excited.

"Luke, I told you not to call me Miss Leena anymore. It sounds so indifferent. I prefer people calling me

Leena," Leena said as she gestured to make her point clear.

They were not close. So it was inappropriate to call her by her first name.

Luke was even more indifferent than Duke. He didn't give a damn about what other people said, except

for Edward. So Leena actually didn't expect him to do as he was told.

Daisy's phone rang the minute she walked into the canteen with Kevin. They hadn't sat down yet. She

took out her phone and said, "Hello, Daisy speaking." An unknown number. Daisy was puzzled.

"Sis, it's Leena. I'm at the entrance to the army base. Do I come in myself? Or would you come and get

me?" Leena was attracted by the two handsome soldiers guarding the gate. "Wow, how magnificent!"

she exclaimed.

"Hi, Leena. I'll bring you in." Daisy had almost forgotten that Leena was coming to visit the base today.

"OK. Sis, see you. Bye." Leena hung up happily. She couldn't wait to see the mysterious army base.

"Is someone coming?" Kevin asked. He wondered whether it was Edward. Kevin still remembered that

Edward was quite wary of him.

"Yes. I have to go outside. Can you please bring the food? One extra share. I'll be right back." Daisy

shrugged and walked towards the gate. She was worried that tonight she would have to take the files

home again.

Kevin looked at her back and wondered who made her leave in such a rush. He thought it must be

Edward, as she cared so much about him only.

"Sis, I'm here." Leena ran up to Daisy with a big smile.

Soldiers passed by and saluted Daisy. She nodded and walked towards Leena.

"How did you come?" Daisy wondered, seeing Leena alone at the entrance with no car.

"Luke drove me here. He left," Leena answered and then held Daisy's arm. Looking at Daisy's pretty

face, she couldn't help but think, 'How cool sis Daisy is! Other people like Luke are just playing cool.

Nobody can be cooler than sis!'
