It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1157

"That's good. You really scared me," Leena said, sticking out her tongue. She would be really busy soon and she was wondering whether she should hire a part-time worker to help with her normal chores. Because she worried that once she got started with the summer lines, she would have no time for housework.

"Huh, you get stressed out too easily. You need more confidence, really." Belinda smiled. Since Leena made it obvious she wasn't interested, she stopped pushing her. As Leena said, she just graduated not long ago. And she needed more time to find what she really was into. Belinda remembered that she was forced into the family business as soon as she graduated, while her father went abroad with his wife to enjoy their retirement. Belinda was dog-tired from work ever since. So she didn't want Leena to end up like her.

"You're right. It's better for me to stay at home. I need lots of quiet time anyway." Leena heaved a sigh of relief. She looked cheerful and lively in public but in most of the time she preferred to stay alone in a quiet place. That was the only way she could concentrate and get more inspiration for her design.

"Are you sure you want to be indoorsy? Be careful about that. You don't want to get too disconnected from people and the society." Belinda liked to tease Leena. Probably because she was an only child, and she liked having a sister around. Although Leena often acted out and pissed her off, on the whole, Belinda thought she was lucky to have such a funny sister-in-law.

Claire sat quietly in the back seat of Kevin's Humvee after they left Lloyd's house, while Leena drove her own car back. Kevin came here from the army base, and he also drove a car.

"Penny for your thoughts?" Kevin asked Claire as he glanced in the rear-view mirror to see if Leena's car was behind him.

"Kevin, is this what you were talking about before, when you told me about Leena before? In fact Leena wasn't just an ordinary person, but from a wealthy and powerful family?" Claire asked, seeming a little confused. Then she realized that she fell into the trap of judging by appearances. What she experienced today really shocked her. That was why she chose to ride home with Kevin. She didn't know how to face Leena now. And she was trying to avoid her, and not have to admit she was wrong. But no matter what, she needed to connect the dots and figure out what was actually going on.
