It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1077

"Really?" Claire was doubtful when she stepped into the car. She couldn't believe what Kevin said. Her brother's salary as a military officer was never enough for him to afford a luxurious life. It was still the government that was paying them regardless of how high their positions were. Thus, there was no soldier who had ever become a millionaire due to their limited salaries. So how was it possible for Kevin to purchase such a fancy house and cars? He couldn't afford them! Moreover, he bought those branded clothes and shoes like he just paid them with wasted papers and not money. That was just unbelievable!

"What do you mean, Claire? Do I need to steal and rob just to polish myself?" Kevin glanced at his sister disapprovingly as he fastened his seatbelt. He was silent when he started the engine and slowly drove off.

"Steal and rob? That is just ridiculous! I just felt puzzled, okay?" Claire was excited for her first trip to S City. It was just within a minute when her attention got caught by the scenery that was passing by. It was easy to say that S City was quickly progressing into a very lively area. She could see a lot of buildings and streets that had been constructed. Everything was screaming development and economic advancement in S City. It was like a breath of fresh air to Claire as she had gotten so used to the ancient cultural atmosphere of the city she was from.

On the other hand, Leena stayed quiet the whole time as she didn't want to interfere with the siblings' conversation. The two might have a lot to talk about. She chose not to feed Claire's curiosity about her brother's income even if she knew about it. It was forbidden for military officers to run a business. Kevin had been very clear with that when he told her about it. Leena wouldn't want to leak his secret to anyone, even to his younger sister.

"Leena, do you have any restaurant in mind?" Kevin turned and asked. He needed to know Leena's opinion as she was the one to pay the bill.

"Claire, what's your opinion? Western food or Chinese food?" As thoughtful as Leena always was, she turned to Claire. It had been a habit for her to inquire about others before making decisions.

"Of course, Western food! My life is already full of Chinese food. I honestly miss everything Western nowadays," said Claire with a grin. She had been outside the country for a while and had her filled with Western cuisines. However, it wasn't just the taste that she missed about Western foods. It was actually the luxury and elegance one felt when eating such. So high-class and fab! It felt like she had been eating too many Chinese foods since she came back to China.

"Okay! I know where we should go. To Westin, Kevin!" Leena made the decision as soon as Claire finished speaking. Confidence was in her voice as she knew that she could satisfy everything her sister-in-law would ask for as long as it was in S City.

"Got it. Westin it is," replied Kevin in an obedient tone. He slightly turned the steering wheel and drove toward another direction.

Westin was already a sea of noise and commotion when they arrived. The dining hall was crammed with guests. Everyone's voices and clanking utensils were filling the place with noises from wall to wall. There was no way to deny that Westin was one of the city's most popular restaurants.

"Wow! What a crowd!" Claire was beyond amazed as she looked around. As far as she recalled, most of the Western restaurants were not welcomed in China. She didn't really expect such a number of people in this place.
