It'll Come Naturally

Chapter 1237 The Day Before The Competition (Part Two)



"I know what you mean. All our love for her is useless without you. All she wants is for you to stay with her." Daisy smiled sadly. She knew what Leena was thinking since she was a woman too.

separation will be.'

The discomfort that was hitting Kevin was getting heavier as he thought, 'That's exactly what I'm worried about. I know that I have to let Leena get used to this kind of life since there will be a lot more of these moments in the future. And I have no idea how long each On the other hand, Leena didn't know how to tell Kevin that she would not be home tomorrow night. The fashion design competition of Dream City would be held tomorrow and she had to participate in it.

Leena was walking to the FX International Group building when her phone suddenly rang. "Why are you calling me at this moment?" said Leena as she answered the phone. The security guard there knew her, thus, he didn't disturb her and even helped her press the button for the special elevator for Edward. It made Leena smile sweetly at the guard's gesture and say thanks.

"Well, I just want to know what you are doing now." Kevin was sorting through his briefcase as he talked. As a matter of fact, it was not yet time to get off his job but since the commander told him that he could go home early, he packed up his things earlier than usual. "I'm about to meet Edward. What are you calling me for? Are you spying on me?" joked Leena with him while thinking, 'Kevin never calls me when he is working, let alone cares about me.'

"What if I say yes?" said Kevin and smirked.

"Wow! I can't believe that your self-confidence is running that low. Or are you thinking that I'm so beautiful? Are you worried that a lot of men will fall in love with me?" Leena murmured in a teasing voice after leaning her back on the elevator wall. She was much more relaxed when talking with Kevin over the phone than in person.

"Let me think. Yeah, you're all right. You are so beautiful that makes me lose my confidence about keeping you by my side." whispered Kevin sincerely. He didn't want to hide his real feelings anymore. Thus, he said the exact things in his mind.

"Whoa! Hahaha! Kevin, are you alright? What are you talking about? That's not like you at all." Those words from Kevin made Leena feel warm and sweet inside. Kevin was a proud man who never spent the time talking to her this way. His words were just too tender that Leena ended up standing just outside the elevator after she got off. She didn't even go straight to Edward's office and just hoped Kevin could chat with her a little longer.

"Not like me? Why? Do you think I'm particularly handsome today?" A smile cracked Kevin's lips as he talked. He gave his office a quick once-over and then walked with his briefcase.

"I don't think you are particularly handsome. I think you are particularly weird." As Leena laughed, she nodded to an office worker there who greeted her.

"Can I ask you out, little girl?" It was Leena's observation that made Kevin go bolder with his words. Actually, he wouldn't mind saying more explicit things to her if she would ask for it.

"Well, I'm pretty sure now that something happened today. That's not how you usually say things, Kevin." With her eyes opened wide, Leena thought, 'I didn't expect a serious man like him to say such things at all. I guess I really underestimated him.'

"Oh! Geez! Leena, what are you talking about? I'm on my way home now. I'll go straight to FX International Group instead, okay? Wait for me downstairs and don't you dare get me wrong," said Kevin. He was pretty sure that Leena got what he meant even if he said it that way.

"Did you get out of your office early today?" Happiness was in Leena's voice when she spoke. Kevin coming early was actually perfect news!

"Yes. I'm going to drive.

Bye." Kevin opened the car door as he spoke. He sat in and had been smiling throughout. Looking at Kevin, the soldiers passing by him thought, 'Why does the Major General look so gentle today? Is it the end of the world? He might be much more amiable than Daisy but he doesn't usually smile! What is going on?'

Meanwhile, Leena frowned and pouted her lips. Then she childishly made her way to Edward's office.

"Here you are, Mrs. Gu!" Anna had seen Leena ten minutes ago. However, Leena was on her phone so she didn't bother her.

"Nice to meet you, Anna. Is Edward here?" replied Leena politely. She had always been polite to everyone she met.

"Yes, he is, but he was pissed off by Mr. Xia. Thus, he is not in a good mood," said Anna cautiously. She knew that Leena wouldn't care about that news because Edward would never get mad at Leena for whatsoever reasons. No matter how bad his mood swing was, he would never vent at Leena.

"It's okay. I can handle this." Leena smiled shrewdly and then confidently pushed the door to Edward's office.

"Get out! Knock the door and come in again." Edward didn't raise his head and shouted at her angrily.

"Well, I am wearing a mini skirt and high heels. I don't feel like doing that. Please don't ask me to do that." Leena pouted unhappily while sporting her puppy eyes. She stood at the door and looked at Edward who was already turning red and losing his temper. After hearing that, Edward slammed his palm on his desk and finally shot her with a dagger stare.

"Oh! It's you! Come in, little girl." The surprise on Edward's face was monumental. He thought that it was just one of his employees that went to his office. Never had he thought that it was Leena who came.0000
