It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1357

"Well, if you don't mind it, then let's not bother going to another place. Let's go inside, finish the meal quickly and then go back home," suggested Duke as he reached out for both of their hands. He guided them to walk-in to the restaurant before them and it seemed that his idea was already fixed.

Meanwhile, Leena took a quick look at Belinda. She felt relieved when she saw that Belinda was doing alright. She was actually worried that Belinda might be unhappy about this arrangement.

"Okay, take a seat!" The first thing that Duke did upon reaching their table was to pull a chair for Belinda. He wasn't saying anything and yet his actions spoke louder than words. He was very considerate to his pregnant wife and it was evident that Belinda had his full attention.

"Aren't we going to the private room?" asked Leena as she looked around. She was trying to check where Rachel sat.

"We'll stay here. The air is fresher here than in the private rooms. It's not good for an expectant mother." Obviously, Duke already made a research about the do's and don'ts for pregnant women. He was an excited father-to-be and he honestly had high expectations for his unborn child.

"Yes, you are right. I almost forget it." Leena stuck her tongue out and then sat down. She saw Rachel who was sitting nearby upon raising her head. The thought that Rachel was just close made Leena look at Duke nervously. She was wondering if the woman would come to their table to disturb them. Seriously, it was a disgrace that Rachel's heart wasn't as beautiful as her face.

"What's wrong with you, Leena? Why do you suddenly look strange?" Although Duke cared about his wife and baby, he would not just simply ignore his beloved sister. Thus, he noticed the slight changes on Leena easily.

"Oh! Nothing. My leg just hit the desk. It hurts a bit," said Leena with an awkward smile as she discreetly peeked at where Rachel was sitting from time to time.

"Be careful. Don't be careless all the time!" reprimanded Duke. He didn't really mean to blame her. What he actually wanted was for Leena to be more careful. He scanned through the menu and then passed it to Belinda. He was about to choose their meal but thought that it was better if Belinda could do it herself, just in case she wouldn't like his choice.

"Duke, it's been a long time! I didn't expect to see you here today. What a coincidence!" Rachel threw a defiant look at Belinda. She really didn't anticipate to see these two women again after their encounter earlier. She just came back to this country. It was ironic how her smile went brighter when she thought about the bad things that happened to her in this country before.
