It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 317

"What's the matter?" Leena had never asked about his schedule. Kevin was a bit surprised. He wondered what she had in mind.

"There's a party tonight, the anniversary party of the FX International Group. I am wondering if you can come with me." Somehow Leena felt Kevin seemed quite commanding that morning. Was it because of the serious look on his face? Or perhaps she was just being paranoid? Either way, Leena couldn't dare to look into his eyes.

"Sure. I think I can make it. I'll be there with you unless something urgent comes up at the base." Kevin answered absently with a frown. The anniversary party? Why didn't Daisy mention it before? There would be a lot of celebrities at the anniversary party. To be honest, Kevin didn't want to go. However, he had to because he was now Leena's husband. More importantly, Daisy would be there. He had tried his best not to think about her anymore; but no matter how hard he tried to run away from her, his path always led him back to her. And Kevin hated himself for being such a spineless coward.

"Okay. I'll prepare your clothes." Leena was a professional designer, and she didn't need to use the measuring tape. She gauged Kevin's size with her eyes and started thinking about what she should pick for him tonight.

"Go have a bath. I'll be downstairs making breakfast for you." Kevin didn't mind what Leena would do to him. But he felt that being too polite to each other would make them seem like friendly neighbors rather than a couple. He hoped they could be more casual and relaxed.

Lost in thought, Leena bit her lip, watching him leave the room without saying anything. The more time she had spent with Kevin, the more confused she became. Leena could sense that Kevin was deeply in love with someone else, and she knew she was only a replacement, or more sadly, a rebound. She might be mistaken, but Kevin's strange behavior somehow confirmed her assumption.

Kevin knew he was not himself in the morning, so he went to the shooting range as soon as he arrived at the army base. He wanted to get rid of the troubling thoughts hovering in his mind. Kevin was always calm and focussed. So why did he get so grumpy earlier that morning? He shouldn't have lost his temper, Leena didn't do anything wrong and she didn't deserve it.

He became more frustrated by the thought of the party. After tonight everyone would know him, he didn't care how the media would portray him, but he couldn't ignore Leena's brother and his friends. After all, Kevin had stolen their little princess, and they wouldn't let him go so easily. What they would do to him was Kevin's biggest concern now.

"Mark, where's your colonel?" After Kevin stepped out of the range, he saw Mark rushing somewhere. Shouldn't he be in the office with Daisy at this hour? Why on earth was he wandering around?

"Major General Gu, there you are. I've been looking for you." Mark wiped the beads of sweat off his forehead and sighed with relief. He had been looking around for Kevin ever since he saw his car in the parking lot.
