It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1272

"Well, she is my wife, and this is what I should do," Kevin said with a frown. He didn't think taking care of Leena was a burden to him. After all, Leena was his wife, the closest person to him in the world. But Edward's words, as if giving him orders, made him feel like an outsider, which made him very uncomfortable.

Then there was a soft knock at the door. Kevin looked up to see who it was and couldn't believe who was standing by the door. His mother came. Although it was a long way from the capital city, she rushed over as soon as she could. Apparently, Shannon cared a lot about her daughter-in-law.

"How's Leena?" Shannon entered the ward with Claire, travel-worn and weary. Anxiety was written all over her face.

"Mom, why are you here? Claire told you everything, didn't she?" Kevin had told Leena his true feelings for her the whole day, but there was still no sign of her waking up. Kevin felt both physically and mentally exhausted. Luckily, the Commander had persuaded the superior officers to reassign his tasks to Hank, otherwise Kevin would not know how to balance himself between his country and his wife.

"Yes, she did. Last night, she called me and told me what had happened, and I was eager to come here then. But it's not safe to drive at night. So I set out this morning. How's Leena? She still hasn't woken up?" Shannon approached the bed and gazed worriedly at Leena's pale face.

"No, she hasn't. But the doctor said she would wake up sooner or later. Did you drive here? Or dad arranged a driver for you?" Kevin asked casually. He didn't think his father would care about Leena. After all, he had always made no secret of his dislike for her.

"Your father asked his guard to drive me here. You know, I am so worried about Leena. Your father said it was dangerous for me to drive." Shannon didn't hide her feelings for Leena either. She had actually planned to visit her son and daughter-in-law a couple of days before. But she didn't expect her plans to be realized with the inclusion of such a gloomy event. She shook her head with profound resignation and hoped Leena would wake up soon.

"Claire, why did you tell mom about it? You are not helping." Kevin gave Claire a reproachful look as he didn't want his mother to worry about Leena. The good news was that Claire had become a sensible and thoughtful girl. Kevin also finally got to know what a excellent person Leena was in a blaze of publicity. He had thought she was only an apprentice with no real job. That was the reason why he was okay with Leena's refusal to hire a house maid. After all, in his opinion, Leena had a plenty of time to do the housework. He had no idea that she was able to be a great success in the fashion industry while cleaning and arranging everything in their house in perfect order. He had never put himself in her shoes before, and he felt very guilty about it. Strangely, none of the media had reported on Leena's drowning. He wondered whether Edward had put pressure on the media to stop them from reporting it. After all, it wasn't good news.
