It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1084

"This is crazy! Don't tell me that he is your old flame! No, no, it's impossible. It is true that he is a womanizer but I don't think that a man as eligible as him would ever set eyes on a woman like you." Claire muttered with contempt as she crossed her arms over her chest. She then gently stroked her chin while mentally sizing Leena up, looking thoughtful.

"Sorry Claire, but please watch your tongue about this." Different from her calm demeanor, Leena replied with displeasure as she took the food out of their microwave. She might be able to laugh it off if Claire only taunted her, but how she said it just now was a pure insult. That attack was way under the belt and even too personal.

"I won't keep making wild guesses if you don't make a mystery of it. You can save yourself the trouble by simply telling me the truth," Claire said annoyedly and then pouted. She found Leena's reaction a bit surprising as she seldom uttered harsh words. The reaction she begot from Leena made her think that she did something wrong though she was just curious about it.

"Forget it. Let's have breakfast," Leena finally said after taking a deep breath secretly to calm herself. She too had realized that she was acting emotionally just now. But any ordinary person could lose his or her temper if offended constantly and unreasonably by others.

"So you are pissed off? But I thought that you have a good temper, don't you?" A smirk played on Claire's lips upon noticing that Leena's face darkened. She had always believed that Leena was just pretending to be a nice person. She wasn't expecting to blow her cover so easily though.

"No, I'm not. I'm afraid that you have read me wrong. Come and join me before the food gets cold again." Leena gave her sister-in-law a fake smile while pushing a plate towards Claire. She did feel very upset about Claire's words but then, managed to act like she didn't take them seriously.

"Where are you going after breakfast?" Claire took a huge bite of the bun and asked with her mouth full. She read Leena's expression very carefully and knew that she was actually quite displeased.

"There is not much food left so I need to do some shopping. You can come along if you are free," replied Leena in a calmer tone. She gradually cooled down when Claire changed the topic. She went back to swaying herself that the woman before her was Kevin's little sister, thus she should be the bigger person between them since she was the wife of her elder brother. She should never have made a fuss about Claire's thoughtless words.

"What? So you are going to the wet market? I'm not going then." Claire exclaimed. She shuddered at the thought of the smelly, messy and dirty environment of the market. In her opinion, the market was a place for old women and never a place for girls who cared much about their looks. It was not for her! Not to mention that she had dressed up a little bit today.
