Leena kept trying to hold back her tears the entire way. Kevin had seen that she slapped Louisa. Now he must think she was malicious. However, she did not regret slapping that woman one bit. On the contrary, she felt relieved because she did not need to tolerate Claire and Louisa's provocations anymore. In any case, she had fallen out with them, hadn't she?
At that moment, she missed S city very much. She missed the people and her life there. She always felt like she should not have come here as her arrival was not welcomed. Although Shannon liked her very much, she knew that other people looked at her contemptuously last night at the birthday party. She hid in the garden because she did not want herself to face the embarrassing situation. It seemed that in today's society, everybody paid more attention to identity and background. If she was the daughter of a senior official, the treatment she received would be totally different!
Leena found a comparatively remote place and sat down. She would not envy others, no matter how high their statuses were. In her heart, she believed that what she owned was not inferior to others. She possessed a deep familial affection that could not be exchanged with any precious titles. Although her family was not a political one, everyone in it loved her very much.
Leena bit her lip. She wished she could hear Duke's voice. She took out her phone, but didn't dare to tap out his number. If she told Duke what had happened, she would cry. Duke already disliked Kevin. If he knew what had occurred, he would dislike Kevin more. That was certainly not what she wanted to happen. No matter how grieved she felt right now, she would not call up Duke.
After what happened, Kevin must be quite disappointed with her. Would he believe her? Or did he believe in Louisa? But it didn't matter anymore, did it? After all, she had done it, and now it was useless to regret it.
She took a slight breath, looking up at the sky and trying to hold back her tears. At the same time, she continued to comfort herself in her heart, 'Leena, it's okay. This is nothing serious. If you cannot stand such kind of grievance, how can you go on fighting in the future?'
Kevin looked for Leena everywhere. But no matter where he looked, he did not find her. It was inevitable for him to get a little anxious. It was also easy for his temper to flare up when he couldn't find someone. However, he continued to be calm, which was odd.
"Leena." Upon seeing her petite figure, Kevin quietly let out a breath of relief. He quickly ran over to her.
Leena raised her head and glanced at Kevin indifferently. She lowered her head again. She knew Kevin came to question her and she was ready to receive his scolding.
"Well, do you not want to look at me? Or is there nothing you want to tell me?" Kevin looked down at her from a height. Although his tone was a little indifferent, he felt a little prickle in his heart when he saw her red eyes.
