It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1172

"You and my brothers are totally different. How would I compare you to them? Let me ask the same thing, who is more important to you, Claire or me?" Leena asked him back and rolled her eyes. It seemed that Kevin was a little strange tonight and she couldn't understand why. He wasn't the type to change the topic out of nowhere. He was talking about Louisa and then went jumping to her brothers. What on earth did he want to do? Leena was certainly clueless about his behaviors and didn't even think of linking his acts to jealousy.

"Those two relationships are defined differently!" Kevin frowned. Only then did he realize how narrow-minded he seemed to ask such a stupid question. How did he even come up with that super-nonsense question?

"There's nothing different. All of those people you were mentioning are family members. You should understand that. Do you need me to explain things again?" With a sigh, Leena lowered her voice and tried to cool her head off. Kevin used to be so calm. Why was he suddenly acting like a kid right now?

"Forget about it. Just pretend that I never asked you about it." That was it. Kevin made an about-face and walked out of the bathroom. He was instantly embarrassed after hearing Leena nagged at him for the first time. He was just a step away from the door when Leena suddenly stepped ahead of him and blocked his way.

"No. I think I got it!" She exclaimed as a word sudden flashed in her head. 'Jealous! God, yes! Jealous!' she almost screamed. "Kevin, are you jealous?" A smile as bright as the sun suddenly rose on Leena's face. Even her eyes were smiling as she looked up at Kevin teasingly. The happiness that was flooding her was immeasurable after finally figuring out what was wrong with Kevin.

"Me? Jealous? Says who? Why should I be jealous?" Kevin looked up at the ceiling and deliberately avoided her grinning face.

"Good question! Why are you jealous? Hold on, let me think about the answer for a while. Oh, yeah! I know now." Leena looked up at him and tried to catch his gaze. It took her a second to get Kevin's attention again and she instantly smiled when she finally met his eyes.

"What do you know?" Hesitation was dripping from Kevin's voice when he spoke. His heart was going crazy. What would he do if she guessed right?

"I know why you are jealous! It is because Tom saw my back!" Leena spoke out her answer like a student in a quiz-bee championship. She looked so sure about what she said and didn't even think that he was hurting earlier because of love. She already accepted the fact that Kevin never looked at her that way and she was a realist. Thus, she stopped fantasizing about feelings that didn't belong to her.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I need to go downstairs to check on Claire." He said those words so fast in just one breath and then bolted out of the room like he was being run after by a demon. It wasn't safe for him to stay next to Leena at that time. He was losing control and he might just blurt what was inside his head on her face.

"Am I wrong?" Leena mumbled to herself while innocently staring at the door Kevin just ran out from. If that was not the reason, then what else could he be angry about?
