It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1050

"You tell me. If I were you, Louisa, I wouldn't be hitting on someone else's hubby. Think about it. If he's unfaithful to me then he'll be unfaithful to you, too. Do you really want that kind of heartache?" Leena believed in fate. If two people were meant to be together, nothing could separate them. If they weren't, there wasn't much anyone could do about it.

"You're just saying that because Kevin is with you right now. But he doesn't love you. I still have a chance with him." What Leena said didn't bother Louisa at all. She already had a plan. Once she and Kevin were together, she had her own schemes to make him all hers, and no one else's.

"He doesn't love me? Says who?" Leena simply smiled. Make no mistake, she was pissed off, but she wasn't going to show it. She wouldn't give Louisa the satisfaction.

"Humph! You think he loves you? You should recognize this necklace." Louisa pulled out the necklace she was wearing from under her clothes, believing that Leena would freak out once she saw it. It was Kevin's birthday gift to her.

"Why? Am I supposed to recognize it?" Leena asked, biting her lip. A wave of sadness crashed through her body. 'Kevin, weren't you in love with Daisy? Why did you give this girl a priceless necklace like that? Are you a cheater like other men?' she thought.

"Come on, Leena. You must have seen this necklace before. On second thought, it's a gift from Kevin. I see why he never told you about it." A smug smile spread across Louisa's face. Louisa loved to play with the truth, bend it, twist it, letting others draw their own conclusions from what she didn't say as much as they might do from her words. It was a lie, but she just loved the look on Leena's face when she was crushed. 'Now let's see, ' she thought.

"It's just a gift, Miss Ye, as you said. Why should I care?" Leena's tone betrayed no emotion. But deep down, she cared a great deal. When Kevin returned from training last time, he got her nothing, but managed to give Louisa this uberexpensive necklace. Clearly, she was nothing to him. She began to think back to last night, and the sweet words he had said to her. How much of that was a lie? Could she trust him ever again?

"It's not just a gift. It's a symbol of our love. He loves me, and it reminds me of him. That's why I wear it every day," Louisa continued prattling like a proud mynah bird.

"Really? Should I congratulate you then? Because you have something I don't have, after all." Leena looked down at her fingers, and a thought came to her. More accurately, it hit her like a slap. Suddenly, she felt her marriage was a sham. Kevin didn't even give her a wedding ring.

"Leena, doesn't it bother you that your husband gave me this expensive necklace? Shouldn't you be jealous?" Leena's reaction was even-toned. She didn't cry, she didn't even look sad. Things weren't going as Louisa had planned.

"Should I? It's just a necklace and it only proves that we can afford it." Leena sounded casual as if she were talking to someone about the weather.

"Leena, I know this has really hit you hard. You're twisting my words intentionally," Louisa sneered. She had almost thought Leena was as calm as she pretended to be. It turned out to be an act. She must have been flustered for awhile now. 'She's a good actress, ' Louisa thought, 'but the jig is up.'

"Ha! Don't flatter yourself. Kevin's not the man you think he is. As a matter of fact, he's behind you right now. I guess we can ask him what's going on, if you want." Leena smiled sarcastically. Given the terrible situation, she was hoping to settle the matter once and for all. She was curious what Kevin would have to say about it.

"What?" Louisa turned back in a panic, afraid that Kevin was really standing behind her. She was relieved to see that he was simply walking towards them. She let out an audible sigh of relief.
