"Do you regret it?" Duke turned around and shot a concerned look at her. He was worried about her. She was his only sister and he devoted himself to love and care for her. Though she had married and became the wife of another man, she was still the little sister needing his protection in his eyes. She would remain one of the most precious people in his heart.
"No. Why should I regret it?" Leena raised her eyebrows and smiled brightly. She looked so adorable with her sweet smile. But she could not help questioning herself in her heart; Really? She didn't regret it? But why did she feel a pang of sorrow and sadness in her heart when she felt that Kevin thought nothing of her at all?
"I'm glad you don't regret it. It's your choice. So I hope you'll be responsible for it and don't give up halfway through. It shouldn't be easy to end a marriage." Duke disliked Kevin and still resented him, but he still hoped his younger sister could live a happy life with him. After all, they were wife and husband. So no matter what happened, he didn't want to see them end up in tragedy.
"Don't worry, brother! I'm a grownup now. I know what I'm doing." Leena certainly knew what he meant. She understood how he cared for her. He was her brother and she was his beloved one. So she always kept his words and suggestions in her mind.
"Well, perhaps you'll need a nanny? Or a part-time maid or someone? In that case, you'll have more time to concentrate on your fashion design and we won't feel so worried about you." Duke couldn't help shivering in his heart at the thought of Leena's scalded hand last time. He didn't want that kind of thing to happen again. It would definitely be a great challenge to him because the last thing he wanted was to see Leena get hurt. He hated it when he had to endure the possibility that Leena might hurt herself. He didn't want to have another terrible experience.
"Oh, thanks, but I'm fine and I don't need any nanny or maid. It's not a big house, and I can take care of it by myself. Besides, I don't like strangers staying in my house. It feels so weird." The reason she had agreed with Kevin on their marriage was that she had wanted an utterly private space. So she politely declined Duke's suggestion. Now she had the space completely to herself, but she found that she didn't want to be alone anymore. What happened to her?
"Fine! But anyway, take care of yourself. You can call us anytime no matter what happens. I'll transfer the money to your bank account on time." Duke turned the wheel and the red Ferrari stopped in front of the building of Leena's apartment. He turned around and looked at her with a firm gaze. He seemed to tell her that no matter what happened, he would always stand by her and protect her from any pain.
"Brother, you don't need to send so much money to me anymore. You've already given me lots of money and it will last me a long time. Besides, I can also earn money now." Leena didn't know what Kevin would think of her if she was still receiving money from her original family. And subconsciously, she didn't want to receive the money support anymore. Because she reasoned that if she continued to accept the money, Kevin would mind it a lot, as he was a very proud man! He had given his bank card to her, which meant he had agreed that Leena could have all his money and spend it on their family. If she, as his wife, still kept accepting money support from her original family, it would make him seem to be an incapable man, unable to provide for his wife. Other people might feel that he was so useless that he couldn't afford a good life for his wife and support their family. A real man would hate such questions and never want this kind of rumor spreading about him!
