"Do you really think that I will believe you?" Edward smirked at Leena. He couldn't believe how she seemingly took him for a fool. How could she think that he would believe such a lame excuse? Edward knew that the truth was definitely not as simple as Leena told him.
"That is the truth, whether you believe it or not. Besides, look, here is my new phone. I just bought it." Leena took her new phone out of her purse and handed it to Edward. She wanted to prove that she was saying the truth and that she didn't lie to him.
"Well, I believe that your phone was broken. What I don't believe is how it was broken." Crossing his legs casually, Edward gave her phone an uninterested glance. Yes, it was indeed a new one. However, it didn't mean that he would believe what she said just because she got herself a new phone.
"How was it broken? What do you mean?" Leena furrowed her eyebrows and pretended that she didn't understand what he said. She was secretly wondering if Tom had told Edward about what happened last night. Good Lord! She sincerely hoped not. He couldn't have told Edward about it, could he? Tom was not like Rain, he was not the type of person who would be spreading others' secret like it was butter to a toast. If it was Rain who knew about her secret, then he would have probably told Edward already, but not Tom. She trusted Tom.
"Well, you're the only one who knows what I mean. By the way, why did you decide to come here all of the sudden? You haven't been here for a long while," complained Edward. It was obvious that he wasn't happy about Leena not visiting them.
"I'm sorry but I just got really busy these days! If only I'm not busy, trust me, I will definitely come here to bother up every day until you get annoyed with me." Leena felt a bit guilty that she didn't spend much time with her brothers after she was married. She knew that they all cared so much about her and would always want her around. However, married life was not as easy as she expected. Thus, she hadn't had much time to focus on her brothers anymore.
