It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 760

"No, thanks. I'll ask the driver to come and pick me up. You can go and continue to play with them!" Duke pushed Rachel away as he shook her offer off. He staggered to the lounge and pulled out his mobile phone from his pocket.

"Then I'll find a place to sit with you while waiting for your diver. You drank too much. I am worried about you staying alone. Let me take care of you. Okay?" Rachel said without giving Duke the opportunity to refuse. She helped him to the small table nearby, sat down together, and had her hands hooked on Duke's arm. She didn't want to withdraw her hands and enjoyed the intimacy with Duke. She was about to say some more when Duke's phone rang. The call was so unexpected that he didn't even have the chance to check the number.

"Hey, Belinda...Yes, I am about to go home now." Rachel's face turned pale as she heard what Duke said. A hint of resentment fleeted in her eyes. However, she was able to control her expression and changed back to her tender smile after a while.

"I'm not asking you about this. I just want to tell you not to drive by yourself if you're drunk." Belinda stood on the balcony with one hand in her pocket and the other holding her mobile phone. She looked charming in casual dress. The Leng house was in the center of a garden, surrounded by trees. That was why it was colder at night. Belinda shivered as chill crawled on her skin. She put her hand deeper in her pocket to get warm.

"I know, Belinda. And I was about to call the driver just now before you called. By the way, where is Leena? Is she back home?" He might be very strict with Leena but it was undeniable that his sister occupied an important part in Duke's heart. He cared about her even when he was drunk.

"Yes, Leena went back home soon after dinner. She said that she had two designs to finish and left in a hurry. It seems that last-minute working is her style. Anyway, where are you now? I think I can pick you up." Belinda took a glance at the watch. "The driver must already be sleeping at this moment." She went to the bathroom without waiting for Duke's response and opened the wardrobe. She went through her clothes, took a simple short jacket out, then walked downstairs.

"Well, it's OK. I am in Joy Karaoke. Don't drive fast. I'll wait for you." Duke was not the type to flaunt his superiority. He did not reject Belinda's proposal. He even felt so happy about it that he smiled unconsciously. The change on Duke's expression wasn't something that Rachel missed and her eyes opened wide in anger.

"Okay. I will be there in twenty minutes. Wait for me. Laters!" Belinda hung the phone up and drove her Lotus sports car to Joy Karaoke.

Duke also hung up and leaned himself against the couch. He closed his eyes with a deep frown. He looked very uncomfortable.

"Duke, are you feeling well? Have some tea. This will make you feel better. I just asked the waiter for it. It's still warm." Rachel handed a cup to Duke as various plots reeled in her mind.

"Okay! thanks." Duke took the tea and drank. He was thirsty and blamed his thirst to the dry weather. It was not difficult to figure out that Duke was really drunk.

"You're welcome!" Rachel rubbed her hands and pressed her lips together. She stared at him for a moment. She would not take the risk to plot anything unless she was one hundred percent sure. Otherwise, she would lose the last chance with Duke. She had to be cautious as not to arouse his wariness.

"You'd better go and play with them. I am fine. I can stay alone here." Duke closed his eyes. He was uncomfortable with the wine burning in his stomach.

"No, I'll stay with you. I am worried about you. I can't let you sit here alone." Rachel acted decently while hiding her eagerness under her quiet demeanor. She dared not to be aggressive as she didn't want him to suspect. Otherwise, she would destroy the trust she worked so hard for.

"It's up to you!" Duke did not want to talk more with Rachel. He closed his eyes again and ignored her. He didn't care much about how Rachel looked at him in the room earlier. He was fine as long as she didn't bother him.

"Duke, would you mind talking about why you wanted to marry that woman?" Rachel asked cautiously with hesitations in her voice.

"There was no exact reason. It's just because I feel comfortable when I am with her." Rachel's question got Duke's interest. He had thought of that answer for a while. Yes, he felt comfortable. It was only before Belinda that he could follow his heart. She made him relax. He was not a big company's CEO when he was with her. He was not a son of somebody, nor a brother of somebody. He was just a man who wanted to be loved.

"Because of the comfortable feeling? Not because of love?" Rachel had turned pale again. It was known that a comfortable feeling was much deeper than love. Love could become a burden but a sense of comfort was pure. It had gone beyond the word love and interpreted a higher level of happiness.

"Yes, because of the comfortable feeling." Duke smiled unwittingly with the corner of his mouth mildly raised. In fact, even Duke himself did not know exactly whether he had fallen in love with Belinda or not. The only thing he knew was that Belinda had the power to make him unload all the burdens on his shoulder.
