It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 850

"I don't want them. I want you. None of them will do me any good. I want nothing to do with them," said Louisa bitterly. Louisa filled a glass of wine, and drank it in one gulp. Suddenly she coughed violently.

"Louisa, are you alright? Don't rush," said Kevin in concern. Kevin grabbed the bottle from Louisa and set it in front of him, for fear that she might get drunk. He hadn't realized that Louisa ordered wine until the waiter brought the bottle and put it on the table.

"Leave me alone. Let me get drunk, and I'll feel better," said Louisa. She stretched out her hand, trying to grab the bottle, but was prevented by Kevin. She looked pathetically miserable now.

"So what good is it if you drink yourself to death? Will it change anything? Look, I'm grateful for how well you've treated me. And I'm flattered. But we can't have any other more intimate relationship. Get it?" said Kevin brusquely. If Louisa wasn't the daughter of the commander, Kevin would have turned his back and walked away rather than spend several hours trying to convince her.

"Kevin, did that woman seduce you? Otherwise, why would you marry her so suddenly?" From the first moment that Louisa was introduced to Kevin, she had regarded him as her future husband. She thought she owned him. Nevertheless, unexpectedly and surprisingly, another woman appeared and took Kevin away. It was a serious blow to her ego.

"Louisa, please watch your mouth. Don't speak that way about my wife, although you're allowed to judge me freely. She's the most innocent and uncomplicated girl I have ever met. Besides, I never promised you anything, or tried to impress you as a suitor or husband. I never intended to deceive you." Kevin started to get impatient. He had only met Louisa for several times, and it would be ridiculous if Louisa thought they had already fallen in love with each other. 'Why is she acting like she's been abandoned?' Kevin wondered.

"I felt drawn to you the first time I saw you. I have never given up on you for all those years. Don't I look innocent and uncomplicated to you?" While Kevin tried to defend his wife from unreasonable accusations, Louisa started to lose her temper, and things were spiraling out of control.

"People can't be forced to love or hate someone. Besides, I never tried to impress you or make you love me. So, don't pull that with me," said Kevin indifferently. "It's not going to work. We can't be together. Just accept it." He shot a cold glance at Louisa who seemed hysterical. He wondered how the ever smart and sensible commander could bring up such a muddleheaded daughter.

"I know you never forced me in any way. But I thought you would stay unmarried for me, and when I came back, I would bare my heart to you. However, I was too late to do that," she said in a trembling voice. She had never been refused by a man before. Other men would gladly or reluctantly try to please her for the sake of her powerful father. However, Kevin was different, maybe that explained Kevin's charismatic personality, and why she thought he was marriage material.

"Still, you shouldn't have done that for me. Let me give you a piece of advice: find another suitable husband and get married. We're so different. We have nothing in common. Find someone better than me." 'You're not the only person who regrets the bad timing of confessing love, ' thought Kevin to himself, remembering his own romance. However, he knew he couldn't force anyone to love him. So, he chose to let her go and moved on. Now, he was happy to see the girl he once loved live a happy life with her husband, but miserable when he thought of what could have been.

"Kevin, I won't give up on you so easily. A sweet word from me in daddy's ear can advance your career," said Louisa sternly. Louisa barely listened to Kevin. So, he had wasted his time in persuading her.

"Don't bother. I know where my career's going and what should I do. I don't need help from anyone. Now, let me get you home. We can talk after you sober up," said Kevin. He sighed, and was afraid that a drunk and depressed girl might get herself into trouble. However, he was being kind and nice to Louisa for the sake of her father.

"No, I don't want to go home. I always get what I want. But you're the exception. There's no way I can persuade you. If I had known what you told me today, I would rather live a life with a pipe dream. You are so mean to destroy my hopes with the fact like that." Louisa finally broke down and wept, tears streaking her lovely face. Since they were at a corner table, her crying didn't draw curious glances.
