It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1680

"I think you don't love him anymore. You've shifted your love to me," he said hastily. 'All right!' thought Rain triumphantly. It had been a while since Rain last played mind games with Belinda. Now he was interested in playing it all over again, particularly now that someone else had joined them in the room.

As Belinda was about to refute him, a cold voice spoke to them, "Am I invisible to the two of you?" Both were taken aback from hearing the allegation. Shifting their gaze from each other, they looked at the culprit who spoke to them.

As soon as Belinda recognized the person, a big smile unfolded on her face, her bantering with Rain all but forgotten. She spoke, her voice all sweet and flirtatious. "Haha, honey. Why didn't you tell me that you were here?" Under her radiant smile, a weird and unpleasant feeling settled in her stomach. It seemed that she was trapped by Rain, that awful lady boy. He must have seen her husband approaching them, and tricked her into saying those words.

Ignoring the exaggerated smile on his wife's face, Duke replied cold heartedly, "If I didn't show up here, I think you might've gone with another man," And as he spoke, his gaze shifted between Belinda and Rain. His cold facial expression made his wife forget everything, and wait in anticipation of Duke's next words.

"Hey, hey, Mr. Cold. You saw it yourself. It was your wife chasing after me rather than the other way around. Don't you go beating me to a pulp, okay?" Rain said with an innocent face. Secretly, he relished the possibility of seeing the couple have a fight. If that happened, it would be a rather fun and interesting form of entertainment.

"Just shut up!"

"You shut up!"

Simultaneously, the couple berated Rain to stop talking. Both stared at him like they were only seeing red, which signaled Rain that it was time to get out of their face.

"Woops," he said feigning remorse. "If you guys want me to shut up, I will gladly take my leave. Maybe then, when I'm gone, you guys can carry on with your lovers' quarrel." Although he hadn't forgotten about his priorities, Belinda Chick being reprimanded by her cold and jealous husband amused him to no end, and thus, as soon as he stirred another round of trouble for her, he made a quick run for it. Another reason why he dashed away from the couple was the enraged look he got from Duke.

"Hey you!" Belinda shouted after him. "You can't just go away now, Lady boy Rain!" As she knew well how jealous her husband could be, Belinda needed Rain to stay and explain on her behalf. Otherwise, it would be nearly impossible to convince her husband by herself.

Her outburst, however, was misinterpreted by Duke. He took her words in a completely wrong sense, and said scathingly, "What's the matter? Don't want him to leave you, do you?" With his eyes fixated on her, Duke waited for an explanation. If she failed to provide an answer worthy enough in his opinion, Belinda feared that he might turn into the Hulk and cause a scene in the office.

Sensing the danger in his tone, she denied his accusation immediately, "What are you even talking about, honey? That's lady boy Rain!" She said, as though that was self-explanatory. "Why would I ever want him to stay in that way? But dear," she added, unable to refrain from laughing affectionately, "I really like it when you're jealous. I just love it so damn much!" As she expressed herself, she smiled at him hugely, like a chrysanthemum in full bloom, which revealed how hard she was trying to seek his favor. It was apparent that she wrestled to soothe his jealous husband, preventing him from bursting out in anger. In her mind, however, she had already cursed Rain a thousand times for putting her in a tight situation.

Her efforts, though, were futile as his husband said emotionlessly, "Don't suck up to me. I'm not jealous at all," And with that, he passed by her and walked directly towards the CEO office.
