It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1099

"Haha! Louisa, do you dress up this way to seduce my brother?" Claire started to tease Louisa upon seeing the odd expression on Louisa's face. However, she missed noticing how Kevin frowned in disapproval after he heard her remarks.

"No, I don't. Stop making fun of me," said Louisa with a shy smile. She even bowed her head in an awkward attempt to evade Claire's eyes. It was pathetic since everybody in the house perfectly knew that she wore those expensive and eye-catching clothes to please Kevin.

"Don't be shy, Louisa. Just admit it. A girl will doll up for her lover. My brother isn't here anyway, so don't keep your secrets from me," said Claire as she giggled. She found it fun to tease Louisa this way and she surely had the time of her life doing it. They were still busy with their little chit-chat when a baritone voice suddenly broke through the air.

"Are you looking for me?" It was Kevin and he shot Louisa with an uninterested look, then followed it with a short mocking laugh. His face expression was dark as he walked to the girls who were exchanging friendly banters. He shook his head and then glanced across the room. It was evident that the man was not in his best mood.

"Shoot! Were you planning to scare us to death! Why are you even sneaking in without making any sound? You're being rude! Do you know that?" yelled Claire, who just regained her composure after stepping back in shock. If there was something in common between Kevin and Leena, that would be the fact that both of them could be scary and annoying sometimes. Claire could just feel her life getting shorter every day because of the two.

"Why should you be scared if you have done nothing wrong?" Kevin answered back before quickly brushing past them. He didn't intend to complicate things, although he had heard their conversation. He strongly believed that the topic was taboo and shouldn't be discussed in his house. Thus, he chose to turn a deaf ear to it rather than to argue with them.

"Kevin, how long have you been standing here?" asked Claire She ran after her sibling and was curious if he had heard of their conversation or not.

"Why are you asking?" Kevin's eyebrows furrowed in dismay as he turned his head and caught sight of Leena and the dining table. There were a lot of delicious dishes set on it and the view alone stirred his emotions. There was no doubt that Leena had exhausted herself just to prepare a fancy dinner to please her sister-in-law.

"I want to know. Come on. Tell me. Did you hear our conversation or not?" It was her brother's silence that made Claire nervous as she looked at him. Kevin's forced composure and fake calmness could be terrifying. She knew that her brother was feeling something deep inside him now and she couldn't stop getting scared about it.

"What do you think?" Another mocking tone came from Kevin. He walked past his sister and then went straight to Leena. He took the dish from her hands and set it on the table carefully.
