Chapter 54 Is There Another Car
Daisy looked at Edward with surprise, because she really didn't know why. Yes, she was the mother of a five-year-old, but she was still pretty naive about sex. Unlike Edward.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go!" Edward took her hand lightly. 'She is so lovely!' He thought.
"Well, you go down first! You must be hungry. I'll go and freshen up." Her face was still burning.
"Ok, Don't be too long!" Edward knew that she needed to switch gears emotionally, so he gave her room to be alone.
"Ok." Daisy glanced at him shyly.
"Hey Justin!" said Edward. "Let's go down to see what Mrs. Wu has prepared for you." Justin was a typical foodie. Sometimes Edward got embarrassed to see how much he ate.
Daisy looked at herself in the mirror. Her little face had turned red, her clear eyes were full of happiness. Her lips were still tingling from Edward's kiss.
She splashed cold water on her face until she felt calm. Then she toweled off.
She walked out of the bathroom, when her ringtone, a military jingle, sounded loud and clear.
Checking the caller ID, she saw it was Mark Du. Daisy frowned and pressed the answer button.
"This is Daisy Ouyang." Her tone was dignified as usual.
"It's Mark. Your leave's been canceled, colonel. They have a special mission for you. The commander wants you back immediately." Mark said urgently.
"What happened?" Daisy Ouyang asked while walking down the stairs. Her pace was anxious.
"I don't have details, but I don't think it's a good thing." Mark said. 'Too bad! I know she was looking forward to her vacation.' Mark Du thought.
"I understand. I'll be there." Daisy said, looking at her dress. Then she sighed in chagrin. She had to go back in the dress she was in. She forgot to pack her uniform.
"I'll find out what's going on. Don't worry. Take care." Mark Du gently comforted her.
"Ok. I'll set out now." Daisy hung up. Edward saw her rush downstairs and went to talk to her.
"What's the matter?" Edward asked. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
"Oh, There is an emergency. I have to get back immediately. Do you have a spare car?" Her car wasn't here because Edward drove her home last night.
"I'll give you a ride. I'm worried about you." Edward looked at her worried face with some concern.
"No, I can drive myself. Don't worry, I'm a good driver." It was a required skill when she was in military school, so her level was comparable to that of a race car driver.
"Ok, Luke will prepare the car for you." Edward said and dialed Luke.
"Let's go! He's in the garage." Edward remembered her demands and wouldn't get in the way of her work.
"Mommy, are you going back?" Justin was sad.
'Mommy and Daddy love each other now. What happened on base? How could commander always take advantage of Mommy?'
"Yes! I have something to handle. Be good. I'll be back soon." Daisy Ouyang squatted down and kissed his pink face.
"I understand. Mommy, be careful!" Justin said. He worried every time when his mom went back to the base.
"Of course. It shouldn't be anything dangerous. Go and enjoy your dinner!" Then she stood up and walked out of the gate. Edward followed.
"The car is ready for you, ma'am." Luke was so efficient, so Edward knew there should be no problems.
"Thank you!" Her voice was still cold, but she got a little flustered when she saw the Ferrari parked in front of her, she wasn't calm at all. 'It's too ostentatious. What will the others think?'
"Well, Is there another car?" Daisy's wrinkled her eyebrows and turned around to look at Edward.
"Yeah! Which car do you want to drive, The Lamborghini or Maybach, maybe the Spyker C8?" Edward indicated each, but Daisy Ouyang was not impressed. 'Can't you drive a normal car?' She thought.
"Are there any other models?" Daisy asked tentatively.
"Yeah, But you might not want to drive it." Edward was confused. 'These are good quality cars, and they're fast, to boot. What was her problem?'
"Well, I'll drive that one then!" Daisy Ouyang thought that the car which Edward mentioned might be old or more conventional, so she chose that one.
"Well, Are you sure you want to drive that one?" Edward was confused. 'That's a full-size luxury vehicle! What's she going to do? Sleep in it?'
"I'm sure." Daisy Ouyang was firm.
"Well. Luke, ready the Rolls Royce Phantom VIII." Although Edward was curious about the reason why she wanted that car, he still gave the order.
Daisy wouldn't like this one either. She had no idea what a Phantom was before, but when the 19 foot gleaming monster came rolling up, she knew.
"Wait. Is this a Phantom?" Daisy was embarrassed. 'Uh-oh! It isn't what I thought.' It was not what she wanted.
"Yes! Didn't you say you were going to take it?" Edward was more confused, 'So there's nothing here she likes?'
Daisy Ouyang thought to herself, 'Can you be a little less extravagant? Don't you have a normal car worth $20k or $30k? I can't drive this. It's too expensive! They'll think I'm corrupt!'
"Do you have a less expensive car? I don't feel comfortable driving a million dollar car." Daisy had to ask.
"Try a half mile. And no." Edward answered neatly. Daisy looked at him with a disgusted expression. What was she supposed to drive?
