It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1038

"Mom, I didn't know you were back!" screamed Claire happily. The moment she and Louisa walked downstairs, she saw her mother stalk out of the study angrily. She greeted her mother delightfully and did not notice the unhappy expression on her face.

"Yes. I just got back. And this is…" Shannon had planned to snub her. Her sister-in-law was missing and she seemed not to care about it at all. Like father, like daughter. However, she decided to at least be cordial, even if she had to hurry.

"Oh. Mom, this is Louisa. We met each other when we were studying abroad." Claire introduced Louisa to her mother proudly. She could not wait to introduce her. She knew her mother would like her.

"Nice to meet you. I'm sorry to bother you. I'm Louisa Ye. You can call me Louisa," Louisa said politely. She was trying so hard to behave in a gentle and ladylike manner. She wanted to leave a good impression on Shannon.

"Oh, Miss Ye! Welcome! But I'm a bit busy now. I'm taking off. Help yourself, please." Just then, Shannon took out her key and walked to her car. She had to try to find Leena no matter what. Otherwise, she could not just remain at home, calm, not bothered.

"Mom, you just came back! Leaving already?" Claire asked unpleasantly, reaching out and grabbing Shannon's arm. She would never let this chance slip away. It was her mother's first time meeting Louisa. First impressions were the most important ones.

"Yes I am. Didn't you know? Leena is missing! Why are you still here and not out there helping to find her?" Shannon looked at her unhappily. Yes, it was important to welcome her friend. But Leena, her sister-in-law, was also important. Why didn't she care about Leena at all?

"Huh! Missing? I don't think so. She ran away deliberately to make Kevin worry about her. That's all. We didn't drive her away. Besides, she's an adult, not a child. She'll find her way back here eventually. Oh yeah, she's probably too ashamed to come back," Claire teased, pursing her lips. She didn't worry about Leena at all because Kevin's wife was nobody to her.

"What did you say? Why should she be ashamed? Why don't you tell me? What happened here when I was not home?" Shannon stopped when she heard this. Did Claire know something? Neither Kevin nor Nathan had any useful info, but maybe Claire could tell her some useful tidbit, anything that might help find her.
