It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1083

However, Leena was utterly surprised when she came to the kitchen and found that breakfast was already on the table. It seemed that somebody had already put it there even before she woke up. Leena thought that it must have been Kevin who did it as Claire couldn't have done that.

The food was nothing special and in fact it was just take-outs. Nonetheless, Kevin's thoughtfulness made Leena inexplicably elated. What he did just proved that she had a spot inside his heart. If Kevin started with his work early, then it meant that he had woken up earlier just to get the food ready before she was up. The housing estate they were living in was large and it would take someone a while just to get to the street.

Leena let out a breath and decided to check on her sister-in-law since breakfast was already fixed. She wouldn't want to hear Claire complain about her having breakfast alone. She had to find a way to get along with Claire. Claire might be older by age but it was obvious that Leena was maturer than her in so many senses.

"Claire, are you up?" Leena knocked on the door and listened.

"Come in." At that time, Claire was sitting before the dressing table while putting on her makeup. In all honesty, someone as young as Claire didn't really need to put on much makeup. On the contrary, what she was doing was just covering her natural glow as a youth.

"What are you doing?" Leena asked as she came in and found Claire putting on a shocking red lipstick. The color was hideous and it made her wince.

"Can't you see? Putting on make-up," Claire rolled her eyes and answered in a sullen tone. She was reluctant to leave the house without wearing makeup. Deep down, she wasn't as confident as people thought.

"Are you going out like this?" How Claire looked rendered Leena a bit speechless. It seemed that her sister-in-law still had a lot of things to learn about making her face up.

"Why? Is there a problem?" Claire checked herself in the mirror from different angles and saw nothing wrong. It was even odd for her that Leena asked such a question.

"Yes. It looks weird. How about you washing it off and me making you up?" Leena asked carefully. Seriously, she couldn't care less if Claire wasn't her sister-in-law. It was only because of their relationship that she had offered her help.

"Duh. You? I doubt it. I won't let my face become your lab mouse." Leena's thoughtful offer earned a disdainful look from Claire. 'What is she talking about? She doesn't even wear makeup herself. What does she know about makeup?' Claire thought.

"Um... If you don't believe me, suit yourself. Let's go and have breakfast." Leena shut her mouth after saying those words. She meant to make Claire more beautiful, but since she didn't appreciate it, she wouldn't bother to insist.

"Where's my brother? Has he gone for work?" Claire wondered as she walked behind Leena.

"Yes. He had to go back to work today and left home early." Leena had thought that the commute from the army base to their home might be really tiring for Kevin. She had intended to suggest moving to his apartment at the army base to avoid the long travels. However, just the thought of how noisy and loud that place could be made her hesitate. She preferred to work in silence as a fashion designer.

"Where's his car? Did he drive it to work?" Claire was thrilled to think of that Bugatti. She had never driven one. She was planning to give it a try today.

"I am not sure. Do you have any plans today?" Leena paused as she wondered if her sister-in-law had plans to meet Louisa. However, since Claire and Leena had gotten off on the wrong foot and Claire had made it very clear that she hated her, Leena didn't want her to feel that she was prying into her personal affairs, so she didn't ask specifically.
