It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1171

One thing she didn't know was that Kevin's feelings were in chaos too. His emotions were mixed and unspeakable. His eyes were fixed on the mirror as he stood idly before the washbasin. The man in the mirror looked regretful and tired both physically and mentally. His hairs were in a mess, and his eyebrows were knitted. His usually lively eyes were filled with remorse. Even his lips were pale and slightly quivering. The man in the mirror didn't look any inch close to the brilliant and promising Major General the public knew. He couldn't even recognize himself.

In all honesty, he never expected Leena to get injured right before his eyes. The enormous remorse and sadness he was feeling were enough to choke him. He wouldn't say to her but he had been accusing and suspecting himself since it happened. Was it still valid for him to be called a soldier? He couldn't even protect his woman! How could he even protect his family and defend the country?

Kevin was again on the verge of guilt when a beautiful face suddenly appeared in the mirror. She was looking at him through his reflection. A few seconds after and a pair of slim arms embraced his strong waist. It was only upon feeling the warmth of those arms that his body relaxed and stopped trembling.

"I'm sorry, Kevin. Did I say something wrong? I didn't mean it. Please don't show me such a depressed look. It makes me sad too," whispered Leena as she tenderly leaned her face against his broad back and listened to his breaths.

"Louisa came to the army base to see me today." Kevin ignored what the woman said and chose not to answer her previous question. He didn't confirm whether he was angry or not. Rather, he calmly diverted her attention by telling her something completely unrelated to the topic.

"Did she?" queried Leena in a haste. Her attention was suddenly focused on what Kevin just said rather than what she asked. She tried to stay calm but the way her arms trembled around his waist gave her real emotions away. Her mind was bombarded with too many questions she couldn't even speak out. 'Why did Kevin say this? What was Louisa doing with Kevin? What were they doing?' she bit her lower lip to stop herself from wondering. She wanted to trust Kevin and his promises but she just couldn't stop getting worried upon hearing Louisa's name.

"Aren't you wondering why she came to see me?" Kevin put his hand atop hers and held her. He couldn't see her face since she was standing behind him. Thus, he couldn't see the sadness on her face.
