It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 771

"What about you, Leena? Have you had lunch?" Daisy worried about her even though Leena owned this place and there was no way she'd be at a loss for anything to eat.

"No, I haven't. So I ordered ahead of time." Leena always had meals alone. She wouldn't miss the chance to have lunch with her close friends.

"So you only come here for food?" Edward frowned. It hurt him to see Kevin run off on some military exercise and leave Leena alone.

"I have no other choice but to come here. I don't bother to cook a single meal. Takeout is cool," Leena said lightly, not complaining about anything. But to outsiders, it sounded sad. After all, Leena got married at such a young age. On top of it, she married a military officer who couldn't be with her all the time. Maybe it's okay to have a husband who was not as rich as her. But she was sad that she had to live alone, because the loneliness and grief came in waves at night.

"Why don't you move back to the Leng mansion? You don't have to stay at Kevin's apartment since he is not there anyway. Besides, it's not safe for you a girl to live there alone." If it hadn't been for Leena's own wishes, Edward wouldn't have let her marry Kevin. The officer was beneath them. But there was nothing he could do as Leena chose Kevin at her own will. Edward would finally accept Kevin as one of his close friends as long as Kevin was nice to Leena.

"I did. I came back there yesterday to give them the wedding dress." Leena gobbled the food. She was starved as she stayed up very late last night and got up near lunch time, missing her breakfast.

"Oh, the wedding dress is done. Did you design it?" Daisy knew how good Leena was at fashion design. She guessed Leena would design it herself when Belinda told her Leena would be in charge of the wedding dress.

"Oh yeah. That was me! It took a long time to finish. But I guess it's worth it, as you can see, the dress is pretty impressive," Leena answered after finishing another bite.

"The wedding ceremony is coming up fast. I don't know whether Kevin can finish the exercises in time to attend their wedding." Daisy frowned. She hadn't heard from Kevin and hoped he at least updated Leena on how he was doing.

"It's okay. His work always comes first. My brother will understand," Leena said with a weak smile. She didn't know when Kevin was coming back either. Leena tried to reach him, but failed since his phone was off all the time.

"I guess there's nothing we can do even if he can't come back in time. You know sometimes you have to give up something as a soldier." Daisy gave a light smile. She could tell Kevin tried to avoid her after she made everything clear to him. Maybe it was because he felt embarrassed or he wanted to go through the tough time alone. Anyway, Daisy wished Kevin could focus on Leena and realized what a lovely girl she was.

"Don't worry, I'll explain everything to my brother." Leena gave a sweet smile, but a shadow passed across her face.

Sometimes, Leena envied Daisy for the lucky girl could attract Kevin easily. But she couldn't complain about anything, because they met before she came into the picture. Leena didn't get involved in his life until later, so she had to work hard to catch up. Kevin had been away from her for such a long time, she missed him more and more. She had a huge crush on him and nothing could change that. They had an agreement before getting married. Leena and Kevin would try to fall in love with each other. Now Leena got into him so much. But what about Kevin? Would he do what he promised?

After Edward and Daisy left, Leena hung out in a shopping mall alone to kill the afternoon. As every girl would do, Leena liked buying accessories to please herself. She passed by windows full of silent, lonely manikins, music piping out of the stores on the small speakers above.

At an accessory store, a fair hand grabbed the pair of diamond studs when the staff handed them to Leena.
