It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 165

Leena looked up in surprise, trapped in his words. No second chance? She planned to stall for time, but maybe she should re-think it.

The afternoon sunshine streamed in through fluttering leaves and touched Kevin's face. He looked even more dazzling in the radiant sunlight. He leaned back against the tree in silence, his cold eyes fastened on Leena's tightly furrowed little face. He waited for her final answer.

"OK. If I don't show up that day, that means my answer is no. But If I do show up, we can be married, and I get all the freedom you promised." Leena wasn't like other girls, who wanted a blissful married life. Instead what she wanted was what most people wouldn't care about or even disdained: freedom.

"You have my word on that." Kevin had no idea if she would come or not, but he granted her request without hesitation.

These two clinched a deal about their marriage in such a short time. Daisy would never have guessed it but when she saw them after work, she could sense there was something odd between them.

"What happened between you two?" Daisy asked as soon as they got into the car. She wasn't the gossiping type and just asked this out of concern. The looks on their faces were too weird.

"Oh… nothing. Sis, whose car is this?" Leena tried to change the subject. She didn't mean to hide anything. She just didn't know how to explain this. And if sis knew it, Edward was going to find out. Soon after that Mr. Cold would get wind of this and then she would be so busted.

"My car. What's wrong?" Daisy had her car sent here by her driver this morning. It was inappropriate for a soldier to drive a luxury car to the army base. There would be lots of gossip about this over time.

"Nothing. Edward's cars are usually world famed. This car took me by surprise, that's all." Leena said. She didn't know too much about Daisy's past.

"Why? Don't you think this car suits me better?" Daisy said, mocking herself. She'd had a taste of the full extent of Edward's luxury life. His garage was filled with fancy cars but none of them suited her.

"Um! Sis, you are so discreet. Why don't you use a military vehicle?" Leena said with a puzzled look. Shouldn't the army provide a car to a Colonel?
