My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"You very well know that with a job like mine, it's normal to get hurt during the training or missions. God, even death is a normality to us soldiers. So, I really can't promise you that I'll return home safe and sound each day. I know my safety worries you, and I also know that you are unhappy about it. Between you and my career, if I have to make a choice, I will choose you. I will definitely choose you, no matter what." Daisy turned her head to gaze at him this time. Her eyes were brimming with confusion. She felt like she was trapped inside a small box, like something was closing in on her. And no matter how hard she tried, she felt like she couldn't get out.

"But will you be truly happy if you quit the job you love? And can you guarantee that you won't blame me in the future, for making you leave your work? I admit, I am intense. I am controlling. But I am just really worried about you! I was angry too, but only because you didn't tell me the truth. As for the rest, I will do my best to ignore all that."

On one hand, he would be happy if she actually quit her job, that was for sure. But on the other, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her. At the same time, he was worried for himself too. After all, he knew how much she loved her career. If she left her job, it wouldn't be a problem in the present. However, it was hard for him to tell if she would hold a grudge against him in the future, because she would be quitting only for him. He couldn't persuade himself to take the risk. He also wouldn't be the person who extinguished her passion to serve the country.

"Well, it might take a while for me to get used to it. But believe me, it will get better as time goes by. So don't worry." This was not a sudden thought that had come into her mind. She was so shocked at the secret she found out this morning, that she couldn't completely concentrate during her training session either. That was why she got her leg injured in the first place. Before today, she didn't know the reason why Zemo had left, without even sa

about it that the contempt crept into his voice.

"Why would you even think that? Zemo's secret is only one of the reasons for my decision. Mainly, I want to quit because I don't want you to worry about my safety everyday." Daisy's eyebrows furrowed. She knew that Edward was the jealous type. That was something about him that she found both endearing and attractive. But if he was bothered over something like this, it was a bit unreasonable, even for him.

"I just can't help but feel that way after hearing what you're saying. And if I am guessing right, the injury on your leg also occurred because you were distracted by Zemo's truth, right?" It was easy for Edward to put two and two together after she told him everything. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine how Daisy, a woman who trained almost everyday, could end up with such a serious injury.

"Um... How did you know that?" Daisy looked at him in surprise. He was indeed correct. She had been so distracted by the thought of Zemo's sacrifice, that she hurt herself accidentally. It had been just a fleeting thought, but it was enough. Fortunately, Hawkeye, who was standing beside her, was quick to act and pulled her back in time, so she didn't roll down the hill. Though her leg still got wounded badly, it was extremely lucky for her to have dodged the bullet. She could have endangered her life.
