It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 507

"No, l didn't mean it like that. You just appeared out of nowhere. I was scared." Yakira crouched down to pick up her bag. She dusted off the bag, carefully avoiding Leo's penetrating gaze. She didn't dare make eye contact with him, fearing that her look might betray her secrets.

"Scared? Do you seriously expect me to believe that? You went behind my back and secretly took five hundred million from somebody. You know I'm not happy about that. But you don't seem like someone who gets scared very easily. How could my words frighten you?"

Asked Leo with a sneer. He looked at the woman and began to wonder if he had made a mistake to trust her. And then his mind went back to the report Luke gave him. He had refused to believe it was true, but now he kept thinking that maybe it was not forged after all, that maybe Yakira had planned all this and he fell for her trap like a fool.

"Why do you still believe that? There is no five hundred million! Jonathan Mu made the whole thing up! He set me up! He wants to turn us against each other. He wants to avenge the slap you gave Daisy. Don't you see what he's doing?"

Yakira never dreamed that Jonathan would mention the money again. After all these years, why did he try to stir things up now? Hatred for the man ran like poison through her every thought.

"Of all people, why do you think he chose to set you up? Your defense is a little weak, don't you think? Five hundred million! No wonder Jonathan accused me of selling my own daughter. You are indeed a good wife! Well done! I've never felt so mortified in all my life!"

Leo gave her a look of deep disgust. All of a sudden her customary heavy makeup seemed almost horrifying. He wondered how could she allow herself to be seen like this. And then he thought of Grace, who never wore makeup but her look was ever so beautiful and breathtaking. What a pity Grace died so young!

"What are you talking about? Is that true? You took five hundred million to marry Daisy to Edward? I can't believe my ears!"
