It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1369

"Michelle, there are so many good men in the world. Why did you fall for a blockhead? You'll regret it soon," Rain said with a teasing smile as he looked back and forth between Michelle and Luke. He didn't even care to lower his voice, thus, everyone in the room heard him.

As a reaction, Luke raised his head and cast a warning glare at Rain. Michelle was so embarrassed that she could only wish that there was a hole in the floor she could jump into. She had never confessed her feelings for Luke but everyone knew it now! How was she able to face Luke in the future?

Edward watched the drama indifferently. However, he would not bother himself to defuse the tension since Michelle had rejected his help. He decided not to give her any advice from now on.

After lunch, Michelle made an excuse and left them hurriedly. Her movements were so fast as if she were chased by a wild animal. She couldn't stand Luke's detached attitude anymore as it made her feel low.

"Mr. Mu, since when you've begun to play Cupid?" asked Luke with a frown. He was really displeased with this arrangement.

"You're misunderstanding me. Michelle is Leena's friend and she came to FX International Group with Leena. I was being polite when I asked her to have lunch with us." Edward was too proud to admit his initial plan of pairing Luke with Michelle. He didn't want Luke to think that he was a matchmaker.

"Really?" Luke said in disbelief. He had served Edward for so many years and knew him well. He didn't think that Edward was telling the truth.

"Forget it," responded Edward in a cold tone before turning to Leena. "Leena, do you want me to drive you home?" he offered as he didn't want to continue with the topic anymore.

"That's not necessary. I'll drive myself home. Don't worry," answered Leena with a sweet smile as she set her eyes to Luke. She knew that Michelle had a thing for Luke, thus, she decided to help her win his heart. They were really good friends after all.

"Leena, let's go for a stroll," Rain suggested as he draped his coat on his shoulder and smiled.

"Oh, okay. Where are we going?" Leena was genuinely surprised by Rain's suggestion as he seldom asked her to go for a stroll.

"Let's just roam around the city, okay?" Oddly, Rain had changed a lot since Annie's departure. Not only had he shown no interest in women but also barely went to the clubs. It was like he was reborn, however, his character remained the same as before.

"Mr. Wu will come to discuss the contract this afternoon. Aren't you going to work?" Edward asked with a frown as he had no clue of what was wrong with Rain.

"Come on! You are there. I believe you can handle it. Leena, let's go," said Rain nonchalantly as he grabbed Leena by the hand and pulled her away. His abrupt action shocked Leena, thus, she could only turn her head to Edward and gave the man an apologetic look.

"Oh, come on! You already have a chubby face. Aren't you afraid of gaining weight?" Rain pinched her cute face as he ignored the curious stares of the passersby.

"You brat! Why are you always reminding me of my weight?" Leena feigned anger as she turned her head and shook off his arm. Then she walked past him without even waiting for him as if they were a couple who just had a fight.

In reaction, Rain just chuckled as he caught up with her. He grabbed her hand and then walked through the streets and alleyways.

They laughed and played with each other like they were still children. They were free and careless at the moment as they forgot about all their troubles and difficulties. It was indeed a good time.

On the other hand, Kevin was stopped by a commercial vehicle as soon as he walked out of the army base. He was still wondering about who was bold enough to block his way when a beautiful woman got off the car.

"Major General Gu, it's so nice to see you again." Dorothy greeted Kevin with a smile. She didn't look like she was wearing makeup, but she still looked extremely beautiful with her clean, sharp eyebrows, full lips, and pretty nose.
