It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 677

But the same night witnessed a quarrel in Duke's home. Belinda shut herself in the bedroom. She was grieved. For the first time in her life, she felt heart broken. She furrowed her brows and kept sighing from time to time. Although she had tried to suppress her fury, there was still a trace of it in her eyes.

"Belinda, please listen to my explanation. Will you? You have been locked in that room for a couple of hours now. Can you open the door please?" A hasty knock could be heard on the door. With it was Duke's voice that was filled with frustration.

A bitter smile broke across Belinda's face. What's the use of any explanation? Even if everything Duke explained was true, Rachel was already there, like a wedge between both of them. Rachel was like a bomb in Belinda's relationship with Duke. No matter how hard Belinda tried to avoid Rachel, she was doomed to face Rachel and there would always be a possibility of her losing Duke to Rachel.

"I really have no idea who recruited Rachel into the company. You know, I have entrusted the HR Department with the full authority to recruit. I never step in this matter." Duke leaned on the door frame in depression. He kept knocking the door time and again, although he was certain and fully aware that the stubborn woman inside would not open the door for him even if his fingers were broken from all the knocking. Duke felt regret now, and blamed himself for being careless in the process of recruitment. He should have himself conduct an interview with the person to be recruited. He had no idea who the person was before the contract was signed. Had Rachel not been there to deliver him the documents, he would not have known anything about it. But Rachel was really good at playing tricks. He never thought that she would be willing to give up her supremacy and work as a sales planner in his company.

Belinda felt heart-broken by Duke's words. She didn't care who had recruited Rachel into the company. But she did care that she saw her today. Moreover, she saw them in each other's arms. Duke once told her that he had broken up with Rachel and had nothing to do with her. But they still seemed to be on intimate terms. Belinda became enraged at the very thought of Duke's intimate action toward Rachel. She remembered how Rachel smiled when she looked at her with a provocative attitude. How she wished to tear apart her ugly smiling face then and there!

"The scene you saw today, is just a misunderstanding. Rachel hurt her leg, so she tripped and fell on my body. I caught hold of her arms only for assistance. I did it subconsciously. You misunderstood what happened between me and Rachel today, Belinda. If you don't like Rachel working in the company, I will fire her tomorrow myself. Will you stop being angry with me?"

Duke closed his eyes to suppress his fury. He was an arrogant man and never felt the need to explain anything to a woman, especially for a simple misunderstanding. But Belinda was the only one who he was willing to explain with all the patience to rule out every misunderstanding between them.

Hmm! Hurt the leg? That was an excuse that only Duke could believe. But Belinda was not as naive as Duke. It was impossible for Rachel to deceive Belinda. Although Belinda was fully aware of Rachel's disgusting tricks and intentions, she could not bear Duke's physical contact with another woman. After having seen such a scene with her own eyes, Belinda could no longer behave in a peaceful manner and ignore everything that happened today. Yes, Belinda was a jealous woman. She admitted it. Daisy might be the last one of those lovely women who were kind-hearted, tolerant and forgiving. Edward was lucky enough to have Daisy. But Duke was really unlucky to have Belinda. He had to bear the consequences everytime Belinda got angry.

"All right. I will talk to you when you are not mad at me. I will stay in the study. Let's have a talk when you calm down." While speaking, Duke stamped to make noise as though he was walking away.
