It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1137

"We were talking about something related to France. What's wrong, Claire?" Leena raised her head, still not looking at Louisa. She made no reply to Louisa's taunt, as if the latter didn't exist at all.

"Nothing. I just couldn't make out what you two were talking about." Leena and Gerard talked in barely comprehensible French, so Claire couldn't understand what they were saying.

"Excuse me. I have to answer this call," Leena interrupted, giving Claire an apologetic smile. She picked up the phone that was on the table. She had been afraid to miss Kevin's call and so hadn't put the phone in her pocket.

"Where are you, Nana? I'll come and pick you up." Leena heard Kevin's anxious voice as soon as she answered the call.

"Are you finished with work? We're in the teahouse next to the hotel. You will find us when you come over," Leena answered, her heart bubbling with happiness. Her cheery voice cut Louisa to the quick.

"Yeah. I know where the teahouse is. I'll be there soon. See you later." Kevin put the phone in his pocket and hurriedly walked through the crowd.

Leena pouted. Kevin was not affectionate by nature, but he shouldn't have hung up the phone so abruptly. She hadn't even replied back.

"Who's coming?" Claire was curious. A deep frown marred her face when she heard the word "hotel". She wondered if Louisa's suspicions were true.

"Kevin is nearby. He'll be here in a minute." Leena let out a long breath. The thought of explaining Gerard's presence to Kevin once they got home gave her a terrible headache. However, she couldn't hide this from him, or it might result in a serious misunderstanding.

"What? My brother is coming? Oh no! I've bought so many things! He'll definitely jump on me when he sees them!" In anxiety, Claire looked at the big bags placed on the chair next to her. She wished she could hide them somewhere.

"Relax. You can say they are gifts from me," Leena said with a grin. She knew that Kevin wouldn't get angry about the clothes that Claire had bought. He knew very well that girls loved to dress up.

Louisa took pleasure in Claire's nervousness and looked forward to seeing Kevin fly into a rage. Kevin rejected her so cruelly, so why shouldn't she enjoy this spectacle? She wanted to give him an eye for an eye for what he had done.

Kevin didn't arrive until 10 minutes later. Claire and Louisa's presence quite surprised him.

"Hello, Kevin," Claire greeted Kevin in an ingratiating tone. It seemed that she was trying to hide something.
