It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 687

"Sorry! I just misspoke. Please forgive me! I did badly in school. I always make lousy choices when it comes to words." Leena smiled with self-mockery and begged Belinda for forgiveness. She felt upset and unlucky. Why she was so annoying that nobody liked her today?

"Save it! You did badly in school? Then how did you end up college?" Belinda knew Leena was a good liar, so she didn't believe what Leena said. She was no pushover.

"Aha! Belinda, what's up with you today? What happened to you? Why are you harping on everyone you meet?" Daisy sniggered when she asked Belinda. Daisy knew Belinda was ill-tempered. But she rarely went ballistic like today. That's why Daisy felt surprised and confused.

"Leave me alone. Maybe the season's too dry. I know my skin is. I can't help losing my temper." Belinda clutched a hand to her forehead. She had no idea about her restlessness. She couldn't help herself from freaking out.

"Belinda, you tell me if you're bullied by Duke. Don't worry. I will get even with him for you." Leena was a little girl-like tornado. She ran over to Duke before Belinda stopped her.

"Leena, what are you doing here?" Duke frowned. But he tried his best to stop himself from accusing her. He moved himself a bit to let Leena sit next to him. He fixed her hair that fell over her eyes and blocked her sight.

"Duke, just tell me! Did you mess with Belinda?" Leena said in a low voice. She was a smart girl with a sense of propriety so she wouldn't speak loudly and make their conversation heard. Unfortunately, nobody here was blind. Everyone else had already noticed the awkwardness between Duke and Belinda and Leena was just behind the curve.

"Did she tell you that?" Duke shook the glass of wine in front of him and drank it down. He looked Belinda right in the eye and Belinda responded with an equally cold stare. 'Huh! What are you doing? Trying to prove you have bigger eyes than me? You wish! I've never lost a staring contest, ' Belinda thought.

"No, she didn't. She looks very strange today, so I think it is because of you," said Leena. Leena looked right up at Duke's face, it seemed like the answer was on his face.

"There is nothing strange. You ladies always feel bad during your periods," Duke said, trying to deflect blame. He didn't want Leena to know about Rachel.
