It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1443

There was a blank look on Leena's face as she walked out of the hospital building and stood at the entrance. She would have to wait a while to carry out her plan. Heaving a sigh of relief, Leena decided to treat this period as a reward for herself.

She remembered what Kevin had told her a couple of days ago. After thinking for several minutes, Leena proceeded to her car and drove towards a big mall. Hours later, she emerged bearing various plastic bags in both hands, with several sales clerks following her carrying more shopping bags.

Afterward, Leena headed to a supermarket for food supplies. Her car was filled with an assortment of stuff when she drove to the army base.

It was 1 PM by the time she arrived at the residential area of the army base, which appeared deserted. She thought people might be napping.

She brought out the food that needed refrigerating before going upstairs. There were still a lot of things in the car, but it was impossible to carry all of them inside. Leena planned to call Kevin for help.

Using the key given by Kevin to enter the house, Leena found it empty. "Isn't Kevin taking a nap?" she asked herself.

Puzzled, she took out the coffee pot and began to make coffee while calling Kevin.

Kevin picked up the phone and recognized Leena's voice. "Hello, Nana!" he greeted her. The man was busy, but stopped what he was doing. He was studying a large military map spread out on his desk when Leena called. There was another military assignment for him again.

"Kevin, where are you?" Leena inquired. "In the office?" she guessed. While speaking, she familiarized herself with the kitchen. The last time, she had a hearty meal in Battalion Commander Xu's house. Deciding to invite Kevin's colleagues and their wives to dinner this evening prompted her to shop spree earlier.

"Yes," he answered. Suddenly alert, he asked, "What's wrong?" He dropped his pen and leaned back on his chair to take a break. Kevin was hunched over his desk and realized he needed to stretch.

"Nothing," Leena assured him. "I didn't see you around, so I called to check on where you are." Opening the refrigerator, she saw there was only dried food inside, and no fresh produce. She filled it with her purchases.

"You didn't see me around? Does that mean you're in the army base?" Kevin asked. He was surprised by what she said, and sat straighter on his chair.

"Yes, I am. I just arrived," Leena told him. "You told me the women here miss me, so here I am," she said with a bitter smile. He couldn't see her expression, which was just as well. Leena was afraid there would be no chance to visit in the future, so she took the opportunity to see the military spouses now.
