It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1090

"Don't get smart. Since when have my family done you wrong? Quit looking so pathetic and miserable." Claire was getting irritated by Rain's questions and felt that Leena was the one behind all of it. How could she toy with her and make Rain misunderstand her?

"Don't be ridiculous, Claire. I have told you that it's a slip of the tongue." Claire's argument left Leena deeply depressed. She wondered since when had Claire developed the habit of twisting other people' words.

"Haven't you told me this? You can't just say anything as you like, can you?" retorted Claire as she raised a quizzical eyebrow to her sister-in-law. She was blessed with wealth and privileges in the Capital City. However, it wasn't the case now that she was here in S City. Even Leena whom she could easily push around before was now striking back at her. It was unacceptable!

"Alright, it's my fault," said Leena helplessly as she shook her head in despair. She couldn't believe how difficult it was to change Claire's perception.

"I'm damn right about that. There's no escaping the fact that it's all your fault," whispered Claire. She pursed her lips with distaste. It was then when her mobile phone rang and she picked it up. It was Louisa calling her. She rolled her eyes and decided to just watch her phone screen as she was still mad at Louisa.

"Aren't you going to answer your phone?" Leena asked out of curiosity as she got no clue as to why she wouldn't pick up her mobile phone.

Nonetheless, her concern earned a displeased glare from Claire as if to say that it was none of her business. It was then that Claire bit her lips and decided to talk over the phone.

"Hello! Claire, where are you right now? Can we grab lunch together?" Louisa's voice came in haste as soon as she pressed the answer button. She was afraid that Claire might hang up on her again. It was her that got Claire so pissed last night after all.

"I'm sorry but I have somewhere else to go. Thank you for being kind to me," answered Claire bitterly. She had never been a punching bag and she wouldn't easily forgive whoever offended her.

"It doesn't matter. We can find another time to do that. By the way, are you going to have lunch with Kevin?" Alas! Louisa's real intention came to the picture. She wasn't really interested in having lunch with Claire, rather, she was thinking of how to approach Kevin.

"No, just a friend of my sister-in-law," answered Claire in a bored voice as she stressed the word 'sister-in-law' to address Leena. It was shocking for her to do that as everyone knew how she hated Kevin's wife. Nonetheless, it was a nice way to insult Louisa and remind her that Kevin had married someone else.

"I'm not sure about that. You know, I'm living with my brother and Leena in their house now. It may be inconvenient to just invite you to the house," said Claire perplexedly. For a moment, she found herself wondering if she was already overdoing things. She and Louisa had been friends for so many years. She had learned to trust Louisa even if their friendship wasn't perfect. Turning Louisa down ruthlessly and refusing to forgive her made Claire feel guilty.

"Alright, I wish you a good day," said Louisa reluctantly. The disappointment on her voice was so clear that it could be tasted in the air.

"Wait a minute. Maybe I can talk with Leena, and ask for her permission," said Claire suddenly. Hearing Louisa's disappointed voice softened Claire's heart. She didn't intend to hurt her friend's ego. She chose to just forget about her mischief and revenge immediately.

"Why would you have to ask for her permission? Can't you invite your friend to your brother's house as a guest? As far as I'm concerned, Kevin's the owner of that house. Since when have you cared about Leena's opinions?" asked Louisa furiously. Louisa never took Leena seriously as she was only concerned about Kevin and nothing else.

"But my brother warned me that he would surely send me home if I make troubles again," said Claire. Her embarrassment was so clear in her voice as she admitted how inferior she was inside Kevin's house. Claire respected her brother and had to heed Kevin's warning. Otherwise, she wouldn't even pay attention to what Leena thought or felt.
