It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1644

Leena knew that Rain was depressed and this made her worry. She knew she had to try to cheer him up at least a bit. She then handed him one of the glasses she carried. He took this in hand and bowed his head slightly in thanks.

No wonder tons of people came to like Leena. She was always so thoughtful and considerate. It just warmed everyone's heart.

Rain took a sip from his glass. "So… Where's Richard? I thought he was with you." "Aah, he's playing with other kids and besides, Kevin's with him so," Leena said with a shrug. "I can take a bit of a break."

She took a sip from her glass and looked where Kevin and Richard were. She smiled at the bright and playful sight. Boys at Richard's age become naughty and playful, and since Kevin wasn't around most of the time, Leena had to entertain and tag along with Richard. She was easily exhausted every time this happened.

Leena found it amusing when the other kids were so stiff around Richard. Maybe it was because his father, Kevin, was wearing his military uniform.

As Leena continued to look at Kevin play with Richard and other children, Rain's eyes were on her. Leena wore a white dress as well and Rain could not help but compare her to a fairy. "You look stunning in that dress, Leena," Rain said with a soft smile. "Really, you do."

Leena turned to Rain, surprised at his statement. "Really?" She looked down at her own body and like all women, she sighed. She could never be satisfied with the figure she had. "I think I've gained so much weight though."

"Don't say that!" Rain exclaimed as he started to look at her from head to toe. Rain nodded firmly. "You look perfect."

Leena just looked at Rain and pouted, not buying whatever he had just said to her as she playfully hit him on his shoulder. No matter how skinny women are, they just can't be satisfied with what they are blessed with.

Leena and Rain continued to talk to each other with champagne in their hands and talked about anything under the sun. They shared laughs and smiles, enjoying each other's company.

At a far corner of the room, there stood a woman that held a wine glass. Her eyes were fixed on Rain and Leena the whole time they talked.

'He still hasn't changed since four years ago. He looks a lot more mature now. And that woman next to him…' She hummed for a brief moment and played with her drink as she spun her glass gently. 'Ah, I remember. She's the woman who embraced him at the entrance of the FX International Group four years ago.' She then folded her arms together, but her gaze was soft, yet so bitter. 'So they're still together… Relationship seems to be still good. Turns out I made the right decision to leave him.'

Amidst the conversation, Rain felt something rather strange. He asked Leena, looking uncomfortable as well, "Do you feel as if… someone's been looking at us?" Rain had no problem with someone staring at him but, felt that this gaze was full of longing and, that was enough to get him a bit bothered.

Leena shook her head. "No. Not at all." Rain tried to look around but, his eyes found no one. Leena did the same, bearing the same result.

"Never mind. It might just be my imagination." Rain shook the feeling away and desperately looked for something to shift his attention to.

As if on cue, an energetic young voice started to yell, "Mommy! Mommy!" Rain and Leena saw Richard running towards them. Richard was two years old and was completely taller than anyone else his age. Richard staggered towards his mother, Leena.

"Hey there, little prince." Rain squatted down and greeted Richard. "Come over here." Richard moved towards Rain and eventually, Rain carried him up and held him in his arms. Rain then placed a peck on Richard's cheek which never failed to make Richard giggle.

The face of the woman who had her eyes on Leena and Rain grew pale. She felt a sharp pain in her chest. Her hands turned into fists as she saw the sight in front of her.

'They have a child? I-I mean, they hugged each other tightly four years ago.' She bit her lip. 'I shouldn't be surprised that they have a child together...'
