It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1296

Patricia's race would be held within a month and it made her worry. She could do nothing other than pray for her. This was Patricia's dream. Leena had no right to stop her from doing this.

"Babe, what are you thinking about? You didn't even notice when I came home." Kevin was surprised to see Leena staring ahead blankly. She looked upset.

"Um... It's nothing. I was just in a haze, Kevin. You're back. Was work busy?" Leena asked and proceeded to the kitchen to fetch the dishes.

"It was busy as usual. Daisy accidentally sliced her hand. I guess Edward would accuse her when he sees her wound." Kevin was now fully aware of his feelings and talked about Daisy very casually. Daisy was family to him now.

"What? Daisy got hurt? Is it serious?" Upon hearing this, Leena stopped ladling soup into the bowl. She grew concerned about Daisy.

"Don't worry. She'll recover in a couple of days," Kevin assured Leena and smiled. Daisy was often injured, but this time her wound was not as serious as before.

"Oh, thank God. I'll call her after dinner to ask about it." Leena placed a bowl of soup before Kevin. She missed the times when Claire lived here. The house had been full of laughter then.

"All right. But Daisy seemed to be in a bad mood today," Kevin said. He took a sip of the soup. 'Daisy was in a bad mood. That was why she got caught off guard and hurt herself. I guess she was pissed off with Edward, ' he thought.

"Don't worry. Daisy is a reasonable person. She won't vent her anger on innocent people. She has never blamed me before." Leena put food into Kevin's bowl repeatedly, as if she wanted to fatten him up before selling him in the market.

"All right. I'm going to H City tomorrow morning. I will come back very late at night. Don't wait up for me, okay? Go to bed early and don't stay up late. It's bad for your health." Kevin looked at her in concern. Whenever he was not home, she went to bed very late. Even if he was home, she tossed and turned restlessly. Maybe she was used to sleeping late and it was hard for her to fall asleep early.

"Sure!" Leena answered. She would not ask her husband about his whereabouts. She wanted Kevin to know that she was an understanding wife.

"Why aren't you asking me why I'm going to H City?" Kevin asked in disbelief. He could understand why she never asked about his whereabouts in the past, for their marriage had been based on different interests at that time. But now that they had confessed their feelings for each other, he didn't understand why she still didn't care about him.

"You're a soldier. Your whereabouts are top secret. I don't want to be arrested for exploring state secrets, okay?" Leena grumbled, pursing her lips. The lesser she knew, the safer she would be. She didn't want to get involved in state secrets.

"Ha! Good for you! You should stick to that. Otherwise, I'm afraid you would be arrested one day," Kevin joked. Leena's words amused him.

"Don't scare me like that! I'm a good citizen and I observe laws and disciplines. I've never done anything illegal in my life. I lived abroad for a couple of years, but I swear I never betrayed my country." She knew Kevin was kidding, but somehow she felt a little uncomfortable.

"You really know how to clear yourself of accusation, huh? Are you afraid of getting implicated by me?" Kevin asked and smiled at her teasingly. He was curious about her answer.

"No, I'm not. As long as you are here, I'm willing to go through thick and thin with you. You will protect me, won't you?" Leena stared into Kevin's eyes. She was willing to trust him completely.

"Go through thick and thin with me? Good girl! I swear I will protect you till I die." Kevin smiled at her. He had only been cracking a joke with his wife, but he was deeply moved by her statement. He made a silent vow to be loyal to her all his life.

After dinner, Leena picked up the phone to call Daisy. She had been injured and Leena was worried about her.
