It'll Come Naturally

"Are you sure?" Kevin shot her a glare. He refused them because he didn't want to make Leena unhappy. He would have no choice but to follow her words if she insisted. The worst, he would need to swallow his pride and make do with the trip which would have only belonged to him and Leena. "It's only a suggestion. Anyway, you decide." Leena was a clever woman. She would never let herself be involved in their argument. She wouldn't be the final one to win if she got herself involved.

"I see. Your answer is no answer." Kevin pursed his lips. 'Huh, when did she become so shrewd?' Kevin wondered.

"So? Kevin, you agree?" Claire looked at him as her tears turned to smiles. She felt that she was only one step away from success. No matter what, she would create a chance to make Louisa and Kevin together.

"When did I say yes? If it's me to decide, my answer is definitely no!" Kevin said as he shook his fingers before Claire to gesture a no. Claire and Louisa's faces darkened at his firm attitude. Of one accord they spontaneously shifted their gazes at Leena. Obviously, they took Leena as the cause of all the displeasure.

Leena shrugged innocently. Love was selfish, and it had zero tolerance for the third party's interference and challenge. It was impossible for Leena to bring a disaster upon herself knowing that Louisa was actually interested in Kevin. She would not fall into their trap and give her husband to another woman regardless of how much Claire might hate her.

"Kevin, please, let us go with you. I guarantee I won't say anything to make you angry. And I won't stand in the middle when you couple wants to be alone." At all events, Claire still tried to persuade him to bring them first. She would find chances to match Kevin and Louisa together once they were with them.

"Yes, Kevin, it's a rare opportunity for me to come to this city. As the host, could you do the honors and tour me around?" Louisa said in an emotional tone. She would never let such a good chance slip by.

"Uh huh, you can't make Louisa disappointed. Moreover, she is the daughter of your commander." Claire said as she looked at Leena with a smirk. She was telling Leena that Louisa was a person with high status and she was nothing compared to Louisa. Kevin hesitated upon hearing the word commander. He could ignore Louisa but he couldn't ignore the commander. He had helped him a lot in his life and career. He didn't want others to think that he had disrespected him.

"Fine, Kevin, just let them go with us." It was Leena who eventually compromised upon seeing her husband's helpless expression. To love him was to assure that his happiness would always go first. Thus, she decided to make the pressure stop and keep him from getting even more stressed.

"Okay, it seems to be our only choice." A self-mocking smile cracked through Kevin's lips. He couldn't understand why other people's sisters were all like angels while his own sister was like a devil. Leena was a good example. She was always the life of the party and all her brothers liked her. No one would consider her as a real troublemaker.

"Thanks, Kevin. Louisa, come on, get in the car!" Claire delightedly asked Louisa to get in the car. She was beaming a cunning smile for her successful trick.

"Yeah!" Louisa smiled at Kevin a little apologetically and then gently got into the car. She sat on the passenger's seat in front. At this time, Lee rushed here.

"Major General, I'm coming! Where is the luggage?" Lee looked around doubtfully, he didn't find luggage around the place.

"Probably it's in the trunk. Claire, open the trunk." Kevin heaved a sigh. He knew his romantic trip would be ruined because of these people.

"Okay!" As every cell of Claire was full of joy, she readily agreed in a gentle voice. She immediately pushed the button to open the trunk.

Kevin frowned and came to the back of the car to take out Louisa's luggage. He was a bit shocked to see the luggage though. Was Louisa thinking of staying there for a long time? Why would she bring two suitcases if she only planned to stay there for a few days? "Are these all the things I have to take?" Lee was actually surprised upon seeing Louisa with them. He would never expect that Claire had borrowed the car to pick Louisa up. He intentionally didn't greet the woman as he knew how arrogant she was. She would not look at him anyway even if he said hello. Thus, he would rather not say anything and pretended that he didn't know her. Moreover, it was most likely that Louisa didn't even remember who he was.

"Yes, just take them to the floor which Claire lives on." Kevin closed the trunk and then opened the back door of the car. He indicated Leena to sit at the back and was about to get in the car to sit next to her. He was almost settled on that seat when Claire suddenly moved out of the driver's seat and took the space next to Leena and then said, "Kevin, you may have to drive the car. I got up early today and I'm feeling a little tired. So I might not keep focused now." Claire looked at him with expecting eyes as she hoped for him to drive the car. It was only an excuse though as her ultimate goal was to create opportunities to bind Kevin and Louisa together.

"Since you can't concentrate, you'd better go home and have a rest. We don't need you to go with us." Kevin didn't think further about the ulterior motives behind Claire's behavior. He simply stepped back and walked to the driver's seat. Leena's face immediately became ghastly pale since she clearly knew what Claire wanted to do.

"I just can't focus on driving, I didn't say I can't focus on playing around." Claire felt relieved upon noticing that Kevin stopped arguing with her. She had thought that she needed to make a fuss to make sure he would yield.
