It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1445 Back To Base (Part Three)

"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 only a hearty meal," Kevin said, shaking his head. He had yet to open the trunk. Kevin was willing to bet that Lee and Mark would be scared silly once they saw the rest of the stuff inside.

The general's words sounded ominous to both Lee and Mark, who quaked in fear. They were okay to help Leena with manual work, like hauling stuff, but they knew nothing about cooking. Did they have to help her with that, too?

"Oh my God! What is all this?" Her eyes nearly popped out when Daisy saw Kevin, Lee, and Mark bearing loads of bags. How much did Leena buy?

Shrugging his shoulders, Kevin said, "You better ask Leena about that. There are still many things in the car, and we have to go back to get them." He accepted his role of principal cargo boy. But he was also bewildered why his wife bought so many things. Before coming up with the first lot of things, Kevin saw ingredients, clothes, cosmetics, and accessories. Was she going to move in?

"Leena, are you going to move in here?" Daisy asked in confusion. Her husband, Edward, was used to a very expensive lifestyle, and Leena appeared to be the same. Daisy sighed and accepted the fact that they were indeed family.

"No! You're reading this all wrong. The women here at the army base want to learn how to dress up fashionably. But I've been quite busy lately, so I can only buy clothes, cosmetics, and accessories for them. With all these, they'll know how to dress up the next time," Leena explained to Daisy. She smiled at Daisy while she spoke. Leena thought this was the easiest way to teach them how to dress up. It might have cost her a lot of money, but money was no object to her.

"What?" Daisy's eyes were wide, and one brow arched. "And how did you manage to find out their sizes?" She seemed to be in perpetual disbelief with Leena. Did she take their measurements ahead of time?

This prompted Leena to laugh. "Have you forgotten what I do for a living? As a designer, I must be able to take measurements just by using my eyes. That's how I know their sizes. So, I thought of buying suitable clothes for everyone." Her bright smile was full of confidence. She was sure there would be no mistake in the sizes she picked out.

"Ah, I see. I guess I'll never be a designer," Daisy conceded. "I might be able to measure one or two with my eyes, but beyond that, it's impossible! And there are more than ten women here," Daisy exclaimed. She truly admired Leena and thought of her as a very gifted designer. Not every artist had that kind of skill and talent.

"You can do it as well. You get the hang of it eventually. But I don't know whether they will love these clothes or not. I selected these things based on their looks and personalities." However, Leena was a bit worried because her taste in clothes might not be these women's preferences. Teaching others to dress up wasn'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.000000
