The General Who Hates Me

She had thought about it overnight. If she wanted to pursue Zach, she must stay near him.

And the only way she could be near her fated dream man was by joining the military under his supervision. She saw a lot of woman nowadays who tried to join the military and pa.s.sed successfully so she was confident she could succeed also.

Field Marshall Chan choked hard when he heard Keira"s words and spitted out all the food inside his mouth. Mrs. Chan stood up to gently pat her husband"s back while she looked at her daughter directly.

"Oh my G.o.d Keira? What are you saying? Are you fully awake already or I you still sleepy somehow?" she exclaimed at Keira as shock was plastered all over her face.

Then she s.h.i.+fted her gaze to her husband and said, "I think Keira is still feeling sleepy hon maybe she needs more rest."

Keira arched an eyebrow as she added, "Ma, am I not making myself clear? I said I want to join the military and continue my study inside Papa"s camp. I thought of it well. I want to experience something new and thrilling."

"I want to train... I hate going out always with bodyguards and besides I can still study business while under military training... everything can be arranged. I already had a plan for it all." Keira said simply.

The military managed by her Papa was exceptional where whoever pa.s.sed to go inside also gain the opportunity for proper schooling on various courses that could not interfere much with the military training which was the main focus of the place.

Field Marshall Chan stared at her and said, "You brat, I know what you"re trying to do. I"m telling you, it won"t be easy with that one. You"ll have a hard time if your target is Zach. It"s like targeting an invisible prey."

Then he narrowed his eyes as if scaring his daughter and said, "Plus you will be treated fairly inside like other trainees. Moreover, there will be no exceptions and special treatments at all. So don"t expect you"ll be special just because you"re my daughter rather I"m pretty sure Zach will show no mercy and give you a harder one…"

Arya smiled wickedly to her dad and said, "The word "IMPOSSIBLE" is missing on my vocabulary Pa and you of all people should have known that already. In short, nothing is impossible for Keira Chan."

"Discouraging me is too lame… Aren"t you tired on those techniques? Try something convincing Pa…" Keira said grinning before she continued to eat.

Mrs. Chan released a long deep sigh. Those two obviously agreed into something again without her knowing. As usual, her voice was no longer needed once the two began their discussions.

"Okay, I"ll put you under his team but make sure you behave and don"t do anything that would embarra.s.s me or I will have you pull out immediately." Field Marshall Chan said in a serious tone.

Mrs. Chan could no longer keep her silence and blurted-out, "Hon what is wrong with you? That"s a men"s lair and you will allow our only daughter inside? Are you out of your mind? She"s only nineteen!"

Arya rolled her eyes and said, "What does my age have to do with me going to military? They accept 17 years old Ma, it"s Papa"s territory, should I remind you that? It"s the safest place for me on earth."

Field Marshall Chan coughed and said, "Alright, that"s enough. We"re having breakfast so all must focus on eating and let"s discuss further later. You need to pa.s.s the tests so don"t celebrate any victory soon. I"m sure you"ll fail the physical tests though."

Then he looked at his wife and winked. "Hon don"t worry too much. Keira will definitely fail those tests."

Obviously, her husband had agreed to Keira so she just chose to release a deep sigh and continued to eat.

Meanwhile, Keira was already formulating inside her head all possible steps and plans she would do to get the attention of General Zach instead of worrying about the tests her father mentioned.

"Just wait Gen. Zach Lim and I"m coming soon knocking to your heart…" she mused as she squealed of excitement.

Field Marshal Chan and Mrs. Chan: "…?"
