"Major General Gu, did Leena buy all these? Was she out of her mind?" Lee asked in disbelief. His reaction wasn't very different from Kevin's when he saw the things in the car. Lee arrived with Mark as soon as he received his superior's call.
"Oh, why don't you ask her later? She's upstairs, " he said coldly, throwing his assistant an annoyed look. 'How dare Lee say Nana was out of her mind! What a disrespectful boy! It must be Mark who's a bad influence on him!' Kevin thought as he flashed a meaningful look at Mark. Daisy's guard trembled in fear, unaware of what happened.
"Major General Gu, I didn't say anything!" Mark said in defense. He was a good soldier, but when Kevin looked at him that way, Mark felt his heart race.
"You cunning boy! No wonder there's nothing Senior Colonel Ouyang can do to you!" With that, Kevin laughed heartily. An annoyed Daisy flashed in his mind. Edward was the person who helped Daisy change from being aloof to a more mellow person, while Mark was the one who made her lose control. Mark had pissed her off many times in the past.
"Did I say something wrong?" Lee asked in confusion. He didn't know what they were talking about.
"No, you didn't. Let's hurry up and get these things upstairs, " Kevin urged."There are still a lot of things for you to do, " he added with a frown. He blew out a breath in frustration. Kevin was resigned to the fact that intelligence wasn't one of Lee's strong suits.
"Sir, why did Leena buy so many things? What is she going to do? Cook a hearty meal?" It was Mark, the curious, who threw him the many questions. As Daisy's guard, he knew Leena well and was aware that Daisy and Kevin were always courteous to her.
"Not onl t as easy as it looked.
Daisy patted her arm in comfort."Don't worry because I know they'll love the clothes. And these are all famous brands. Knowing how expensive they are, I don't think they'll pass up wearing designer clothes." She did frown at the thought. Daisy had lived in the army base for a couple of years and knew the women there well.
"Are you sure? Or are you only trying to put my mind at ease? I've tried my best to select some popular low-priced clothes. So, I think they can afford these, " Leena explained. Looking at Daisy's expression gave her doubts. She did consider the prices.
"Leena, do you think officers here earn a high salary? As far as I know, this dress costs half of an officer's monthly salary." Daisy had picked up one clothing item and inspected the price tag. She pinched Leena's pert little nose and thought she was such an adorable girl. It was completely understandable that Leena's taste was on the high-end side. After all, the woman was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. A dress worth several thousands of dollars would easily fall under Leena's category of popular low-priced clothes.
