It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 761

"Are you telling me that you love her so dearly that you forced her to marry you?" Rachel had never regretted something as much as she did now. She wouldn't have asked him such a question if she had known that his answer would hurt so much.

"Do I love her?" Duke shook his head and suddenly thought about the question very seriously. "I don't know. In fact, I'm also curious about it." He was suddenly angry with Belinda. Did it mean that he had fallen in love with her?

Rachel's lips twitched. She was about to say something but then changed her mind. It was then that she caught a glimpse of the slender silhouette at the door. An idea occurred in her head and made her smile. She hurriedly hugged Duke and patted his back consolingly to show off. Rachel squinted with a challenging look at the approaching woman.

Belinda strode in but unconsciously stopped at the sight of Rachel. What she saw made her angry. However, that did not make her turn away. Rather, she found herself marching more determinedly than before. She would never swallow such insult and humiliation in silence.

Duke didn't expect that Rachel would hug him. He was dazed and exhausted, so his mind went blank for a moment as he lay in her arms. He pushed her away the moment he got his wits back but it was too late. Rachel had gained her ends.

"What a coincidence that we meet again, Miss Qin." Belinda grinned from ear to ear. There was no trace of displeasure on her lips though she was furious deep inside. What a twist that Rachel was also there. Now she knew why Leena was confused about Duke's participation in such an activity.

"Well, it's not what you see." Rachel pretended to explain when in fact, what she wanted was to cause a deeper misunderstanding.

"Belinda, here you are." Duke staggered to his feet but fell over himself. Rachel subconsciously wanted to help him up but Belinda was one step ahead.

"You're drunk." Belinda's brows were in knots when she gathered Duke to her. She was worried about him and found no time to answer Rachel.

"I only drank a little, really." Duke burped. He leaned on Belinda's shoulder and breathed softly.

"I can prove it. Duke didn't drink too much. He's drunk because he drank some mixed wines." Rachel was vexed at the bottom of her heart but then managed to act considerately.

"I'll take him back, Miss Qin. Thank you for taking care of my husband." Belinda didn't like to address Duke "my husband" in public but chose to stress it before Rachel. Such a civilized way to tell her enemy to give up as Duke was already taken.

"You're welcome. That's what I should do," Rachel talked back and then bit her lips. She hated how Belinda was so swollen with arrogance.

"Oh? Can you tell me what you mean by that, Miss Qin?" Belinda sneered. 'That's what you should do? Since when have you become that close?' She thought to herself.

"Sorry. I think you misunderstood. What I mean is, I should take care of the CEO as an employee of the Leng Group." Rachel explained anxiously as if she was afraid to make the woman before her angry.

"It looks like I think too much. Miss Qin, thank you for your kindness. I'll ask your CEO to reward you handsomely." Belinda was puzzled by Rachel. She had just emphasized that Duke was her husband. Her defeated reaction to it was something she never expected. Did she just change her strategy?
