It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1216

"What? He has gone abroad? Is it serious?" Leena asked with worry. Her brother's safety was her biggest concern.

"It's serious, but don't worry. I am sure he can handle it," Belinda replied. She assumed that her husband was distracted by some emergencies, which was why he didn't inquire much about her pregnancy. Otherwise, he would have kept in touch with her after informing her that he had arrived safely.

"Good. What about your pregnancy then? Have you gone to the hospital?" Leena whispered in her sister-in-law's ear so that Kevin couldn't tell what they were talking about.

"All right. You girls can have your little talk. I am going to look around," Kevin said, excusing himself. He allowed them some space. When Leena lowered her voice, he knew that they were discussing a secret.

"Look at what you did! Now Kevin must think we are engaging in a murky conspiracy. Why did you ask me about this all of a sudden?" Belinda said, rolling her eyes at Leena. She was glad that Duke didn't press her about the pregnancy, but didn't expect Leena to be waiting to fire questions at her.

"He's okay, don't worry! Just tell me!" Leena asked with eagerness in her voice. She knew that her husband was not as narrow-minded and suspicious as Belinda thought.

"I don't know. I haven't gone to the hospital. Besides, it's just Tom's guess. Don't take it so seriously," Belinda said, trying to put off Leena's curiosity. She didn't want to tell Leena that she had already taken a pregnancy test. According to the results, she was indeed pregnant. She was so happy by the news that she didn't go to the hospital to get a more precise assessment, in case it disappointed her.

"Belinda, is it because you are afraid of going to the hospital without Duke? How about I go to the hospital with you? It is Monday tomorrow. We can go together," Leena suggested. Even though the hospital was the last place she ever wanted to go to, she still offered to accompany Belinda. Leena was eager to know if her sister-in-law was truly pregnant.

"No, I am okay. You don't have to do that. I can go there myself if I want to. I am not like you. My legs don't tremble with fear every time I go to the hospital, okay?" Belinda said, turning down Leena's offer. If she was indeed pregnant, she wanted Duke to be the first one to know the exciting news, not her childish sister-in-law.

"No, I just hate to go there. My legs don't shake!" Leena said as she nudged Belinda, pretending to be irritated. She made sure that she didn't push too hard. After all, Belinda might be a real mother-to-be.

"Okay, you might not act like it. But it's all the same to me," Belinda teased her. She enjoyed making fun of Leena, who was absolutely doll-like and adored by everyone. She was a gift from God.

"Humph! Stop making fun of me or I won't talk to you anymore!" Leena pouted and looked around, trying to find Kevin in the crowd. She walked across the place with Belinda when she saw a figure in military green.

"Since you two are here, why don't you join me for dinner? Belinda suggested. Duke hadn't been home lately and his father liked to travel. The house was almost deserted, and Belinda wasn't used to it.

"Belinda, how about having dinner at our place? I am going to cook for you ladies tonight. You can have a taste of my cooking," Kevin said immediately when he heard what they were talking about. He offered to cook so that Leena didn't have to go out. She could have a hot bath at home. Leena had been exposed to the chilly wind for too long and he was afraid she would come down with flu.

"Right! You haven't been to our place for dinner till now. Anyway, Duke has been out lately. Why don't you come to our apartment? Please!" Leena echoed Kevin's sentiment. She was excited to taste Kevin's food because he seldom cooked.

"Really? You can cook? How did I not know that before? Make sure your food is edible. I don't want to be a guinea pig for your experiments," Belinda said lightly. In actuality, she was a bit worried about Kevin's cooking because she was pregnant. She had to be careful about everything now, otherwise she would be risking her baby's health.

"Come on. Don't worry! Belinda, he is a really good cook," Leena promised her. Kevin only cooked breakfasts for her, but they were pretty great.
