It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1003

"Hey, Leena. I'm not familiar with this designer. Don't accuse me of this, okay?" Kevin felt like he was blamed for nothing. He merely made some comments about the design. Why was she questioning him so much? Was it because she thought there was something going on between him and the designer? He was totally innocent.

"Kevin, look at this. How do I look? Isn't it beautiful?" Claire interrupted them when she walked over, wearing a lilac skirt. The nipped waist design showed off her nice figure perfectly.

"It's not bad. But the color… The color doesn't seem to be consistent with your skin," Leena made the comment from a designer's perspective. There was no prejudice behind her words and she did not mean to personally attack Claire.

However, that wasn't how it sounded like to Claire. "What do you mean? Are you implying that I have dark skin?" Claire shot a glare in Leena's direction. Oh, God! Perhaps she finally knew why she was not getting along well with Leena. Leena's snow-like milky skin was something she'd never achieve in her whole life. Claire felt upset and annoyed. 'Come on! I am a girl born in a political family! How can I lose out to this country girl? It does not make sense at all!'

"I didn't mean that. You can choose another color of the same style, such as the rose red one. It will look very eye-catching on you. Also, it will brighten up your complexion," Leena explained. After all, she was a designer. She was used to thinking in a certain way. She was not implying that Claire had dark skin. On the contrary, she believed that the color was the symbol of health. She did not consider it to be a drawback. Judging someone's appearance was not something a well-educated woman should do.

"Wow! You are making comments as if you are a professional designer! Please, stop being so fake. Why don't you just admit that you are just a lousy peasant?" Claire felt disgraced at Leena's suggestion and fought back immediately. Although she realized that Leena was correct, she did not voice out her agreement. Still, she felt like her comment made Claire seem like a total idiot.

"I'm sorry! You can just ignore what I said." Leena bit her lip, deciding that she wouldn't say another word. She walked over to another aisle alone, looking at her designs. She did not want to be the unwelcome stranger any longer.

"Claire, do you have to talk to Leena so rudely? Is this how you behave? Show some respect, please! Leena might not be the most professional designer, but she has learnt everything about fashion. I trust her and I believe her advice to be unbiased." Kevin remembered that Leena told him about her major in fashion designing. He knew that Leena had quite an acute perceptive. Her advice was critical and useful in her field.

"Okay, okay! I get it, all right? I apologize. But she's the one who attacked me first!" Claire said unwillingly. Deep down, she hated Leena even more. It was she who was making her endure the scolding over and over again, be it from Kevin or her mother.
