It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1268

"That won't be necessary. I'm all right. Thank you for your concern." As a soldier, Kevin was used to being injured, so he didn't care much. Besides, he deserved it for not protecting Leena. He was not a good husband at all and was not as caring and attentive as he should have been.

Duke still glared daggers at Kevin. He didn't think what he had done just now was wrong. Leena had never been hurt before she met Kevin. But ever since she married this guy, all kinds of accidents kept happening to her non-stop. How could Duke not be mad at Kevin?

"Leena, please wake up! I'm here." When Duke finally saw Leena lying on her hospital bed, his heart broke. Her face was extremely pale. She seemed so lackluster and lifeless. When he had seen her in Paris last time, he thought she was at her worst. He had been wrong. Nothing broke his heart more than the pale little face he saw right now. Her breath was shallow, as if she were seconds away from leaving them for good. Duke was heartbroken and afraid at the same time.

Kevin, on the other side of the bed, stared at Leena with pain and affection in his eyes. He wanted to hold her in his arms so badly, but he knew it was not the right time to do so. He knew that Duke was probably even more devastated than him. Leena was the little princess in their family. Duke had watched her grow up into a beautiful and kind young lady. It must be heartbreaking for him to see her like this, so Kevin tried his best to contain his emotions.

"Tom, what's wrong with Leena? Why hasn't she woken up yet?" Duke asked Tom anxiously. Leena was out of her dangerous condition, right? Tom had confirmed it. So why was she still asleep?

"Don't worry about it. She will wake up. It's just a matter of time," Tom said as he carefully checked up on Leena to make sure she was stable. He didn't want to miss anything.

"I want to know exactly how long it would be before she wakes up. And who did this to her?" Duke looked at everyone coldly. He didn't want them to hide this from him.

"Duke, calm down, please. Don't you believe Tom?" Belinda was a bit afraid that Duke knew who had done this to Leena. It was not like the person who did this didn't deserve Duke's wrath, but she thought that if he knew, he would be even more worked up than Edward and act vengefully. All hell would break loose and it wouldn't be good for Leena's recovery. It would only cause more trouble. Besides, she believed that Edward had made Louisa suffer enough for what she did to Leena last night.

"It's not that I don't believe him. I just want to know who did this to my precious sister! She was always weaker than the other kids when she was small. For health reasons, I taught her how to swim when she was five years old. How is it possible that she fell into the water and drowned?" If they told him she had frozen in the cold water, he would have believed them. But drowning? How was that possible? Leena had been swimming for years, for God's sake! She was such a good swimmer, even better than him. It was quite strange that she fell in the water and drowned. Duke was clever and put two and two together. He came to the conclusion that this accident was not an accident at all.
