It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1552

"I know. It's my fault. I won't do it again." Leena admitted to her mistake modestly. She didn't want to argue, for that would only worsen things.

"Don't ever leave without telling us! We already have enough children to carry on the family line! Don't you ever worry yourself about that." Nathan threw her a chilly look before storming to his study.

"Look at him! He is just worried about you. He didn't mean to make it sound like a threat. Leave him be, Leena. He just doesn't know how to express his emotions." Shannon tried to ease the situation. She was surprised that Nathan had finally straightened out and changed his thoughts regarding Leena. What had made him compromise?

"I know he cares about me, Mom." It was fine that her father-in-law was upset. Leena was just relieved that he didn't make a fuss over her infertility.

"Good. Don't take what he said seriously." Shannon patted Leena on the shoulder, comforting her.

"I'll go and have a talk with him." Just like Leena, Kevin didn't expect his father to be so liberal this time. As his son, Kevin thought he should talk to him.

"Okay. Be nice. Don't piss him off." Shannon looked at Kevin with admiration in her eyes. She had never needed to worry about her son and hoped that she never would have to either, in the future.

Leena bit her lip, feeling uncomfortable. She knew she shouldn't have been so headstrong and run away from home. She had troubled so many people.

"Dad, are you all right?" Kevin asked Nathan with a hesitant look in his eyes. He stood respectfully at the end of his father's desk.

"As you can see, I'm very well." Nathan glared at his son. It was Kevin who wasn't all right. Why was his son asking him this question? He just left the hospital and hadn't even fully recovered yet.

"Thank you, Dad. Thank you for accepting Leena." Kevin knew it was hard for his father to make such a decision. He could understand what Nathan was going through.

"Yes, well. We are family. Besides, you're not my only child. Claire will have babies, won't she?" Truthfully, Nathan was disappointed, but he could do nothing about it. He had just resigned himself to the unpleasant fact of Leena's infertility. He wanted Kevin and Leena to be happy together. Infertility shouldn't become an obstacle in their marriage.

"Again, I want to thank you for understanding this." For the first time, Kevin realized that his father was not as old-fashioned as he had always thought. Nathan was surprisingly considerate about this.

"Play chess with me." Nathan sighed. He didn't like Leena at first, but as time passed by, he found her to be quite a good girl. She had many strong points that most young people didn't have these days. It was tough to marry a military officer, but Leena, who came from a rich family, had done her best. Nathan was hard pressed to find fault in her.

"Okay," Kevin gladly agreed. He looked up and observed that his father looked much older. Nathan was not as daring and energetic as he used to be when he was young. After the recent misfortune, he looked quite dispirited. Kevin took a deep breath, feeling sad.

Kevin and Leena stayed at the capital city for two days. After returning to S City, Kevin became busy with his work again. Leena was worried about him and feared that he would overexert himself.

"Major General Gu, how are you? Do you feel much more energetic after the holiday?" The commander joked as he walked into Kevin's office. He had had a lot of work to do while Kevin was away.

"Yes. Thank you for asking." Kevin knew that the commander would not have come to his office without any reason and wondered what he was up to this time.

"Oh, stop. Well, since you can't participate in the military exercise these days, you can help me write a plan. Daisy and Hank will participate in the operation." Sure enough, the commander had come here with a purpose.
