It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 387

"I'm sorry. My mistake got you a tongue lashing from my brother." Leena bit her lip sorrily. She knew that Duke leveled those harsh accusations at Kevin only because he loved her too much. Duke was always overly tense when it came to her.

"No, he's right. I didn't take care of you. It's my fault. I don't feel like he was out of line." In fact, it was already the best thing that could happen. He had thought that Duke would beat him up. Yet he had only got yelled at. How lucky was that? But he was also aware that this was not over, that Duke might get even with him someday.

"No, please don't take Duke seriously. It's my fault. I'll be more careful. Please don't blame yourself for me being careless." Leena didn't know whether Kevin had said all those things out of sincerity or pure anger. But she felt like a loser for not being able to take care of herself. No wonder Kevin would be mad at her.

"We should hire a maid. This way you would be taken care of when I'm not at home." Kevin took Leena's injuries seriously. Preferred to be alone, he never hired any help. But now with Leena here, he must hire one to make sure she was okay.

"Why? I can look after myself well enough. Today was just an accident. It will never happen again. Besides, I don't like strangers walking around my home. It makes me uncomfortable."

Back in the Lengs' house, she hated it when the house maids walked around and interrupted her designing. She often wished that she could just be alone. After all, inspiration didn't always knock on the door. And it always took her time to get back into the groove when she was disturbed. Now the marriage finally gave her some space. She didn't need to worry about anyone infringing on her and driving away her inspiration. After Kevin went to work, she would be alone in this house. That was exactly what she hoped for all along. So she must prevent Kevin from hiring help.

"You might as well put up with it for a bit. At least during your recovery, we need a nurse to check on you. How about an hourly worker? This way you wouldn't be interrupted."

Kevin was quite puzzled about Leena's insistence on not hiring anyone. After all, as a daughter of a well-to-do family, she must have grown up surrounded by maids. How come she was not used to it?

"Please don't hire anyone, Kevin. I promise I can look after myself. This will never happen again. Besides, it'll get better in a few days, like Daisy said. There is no need to hire anyone in particular."
