It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1102

"Kevin, this all has to be a big misunderstanding. What are you saying?" Louisa panicked, and avoided his gaze. She knew that Kevin had her dead to rights. But she hadn't thought that he'd be so brazen as to directly accuse her. It caught her totally off-guard. She was at a loss for words.

"I didn't say anything before out of respect for Claire. I don't want to hurt her feelings just because you did something wrong. So, now that I have you alone, I'm going to tell you straight up. No matter what, you and Claire are besties, right?" Kevin gazed deeply into Louisa's eyes, forcing her to face him.

"Kevin, I'm confused! What do you mean?" Embarrassed, Louisa turned her head away and quickened her pace. She wanted to run away. She didn't want him to notice the panic on her face.

"The food was pretty bad tonight. I have a feeling that was your doing." Louisa seemed to have no concept of what she did, or worse, not care. So Kevin was blunt. He didn't give a damn how she felt.

"How could you say that? Kevin, I know you don't like me, but why are you accusing me of doing something like that? What kind of girl do you think I am?" Louisa stared at Kevin with sad eyes. She was humiliated by his bluntness, by his aggressive manner. There was no way she was weaseling out of this.

"I think you know the answer to all of that. Do you even feel bad about what you did?" This time, she faced him and met his gaze. In her mind, she did nothing wrong. So why should she feel bad?

"Why don't you ask Leena? Maybe she did it intentionally. It's obvious she wanted to frame me." Louisa raised her chin in defiance. Yeah, she knew she did it. And yes, she felt a pang of guilt here and there. But seeing Kevin so angry, and come down on her like that, it hurt. It hurt that he thought so little of her that he would come to that conclusion. It hurt that he would side with Leena over her. It hurt that the man she loved would treat her this way. It just added insult to injury.

"Why would you even say that? How stupid do you think I am? She spent hours preparing those dishes, so why on earth would she mess them all up? You know, if you owned up to it and showed an ounce of guilt, I might have let it go. But you didn't. I've wasted too much time on you already. You make me sick." Kevin closed his eyes in disgust. He couldn't actually do anything to her, just because her father was the commander. But he found her really repulsive now.

"Kevin, are you so sure I did it?" Louisa bit her lip, her eyes reddened in sadness. She did do it, but his accusing tone, his anger... both of these really hurt her deeply.
