novelLet Me Serve You Today
| ← Ch.0054 | Ch.0056 → |
Daisy was deflated! Well! She shouldn't have expected so much from Edward, nor should she have asked the question.
Daisy finally took a look at the dazzling Ferrari. She finally understood. This was the only car that was suitable for her. No wonder Edward was willing to loan her this car.
"Could you please drive me there?" It was better for him to drive the car and drop her off at the base. It would look better that way.
Edward was stunned for second, and then he got it and smiled. So it was hard for Daisy to decide on a car because she cared about how much they cost.
"Why not? Of course! Let me serve you today, my darling!" Edward looked at her with a cheeky grin.
Daisy got into the car, dragged the long skirt, and scolded him in her heart. 'How could this guy be so ostentatious? Everything he has is a luxury. Doesn't he feel embarrassed attracting so much attention every day?'
Edward drove like lightning, so it took them less than an hour to get there. Daisy was busy taking various reports on the phone on the way. Edward did not disturb her and focused on driving.
"Colonel! You're finally here! Please go to the conference room at once. The commander and the others are all waiting for you there." Mark came to meet Daisy as soon as he saw her getting out of the car. Her dress stunned him momentarily.
"Well! Let's go! I'm going to change my clothes first." She walked over to Mark's Humvee. She did not even say goodbye to Edward, as if she had completely forgotten he existed.
Mark took a look at the shiny Ferrari. Edward didn't get out, so Mark couldn't figure out who was in the car. He shook his head in bewildermen ce, they would spring the trap tomorrow night. They would monitor his whereabouts during the day. Kevin would team up with Daisy and protect.
It was almost the wee hours when Daisy left the meeting room. She looked at her phone and wondered if she should call Edward. It was rude for her to leave without a word. She wouldn't blame him for being angry.
"Colonel Ouyang, are you going back downtown or to the dorm now?" Mark asked as he saw her coming out.
"Back to the dorm. There's work to be done tomorrow." 'Forget it. I'm not going to call. I'll explain to him when the mission is over. ' Daisy thought.
Edward sat at his desk, going through paperwork. He frowned from time to time, and his eyes strayed to the phone on the desk. He hoped Daisy would call, but no dice.
Anger suddenly rose in him. He threw his pen across the room. 'How could that woman treat me like this? Why doesn't she call me? Who on earth does she take me for?' He thought angrily.
Well! Edward finally knew what it was like to be ignored. Now he knew how Daisy felt. She had been ignored by him for so many years.
