It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 1032 I'm Sorry (Part Three)
Leena let all her tears out as soon as she got in the car. She drove the car around the city without a specific direction. It seemed that this trip to the capital city was just a big mistake. She shouldn't have rushed her essay for this. If she hadn't finished her essay so early, she wouldn't have come here and be treated like this. These awful things wouldn't have happened at all. If she hadn't finished her essay so early, she would have still been in Paris, the romantic and beautiful city.
It was just that all these were just wishful thinking. She was no prophet after all. So now, she was stuck here, trapped with these people. She didn't know what Louisa's purpose was before. It was different now though. That vicious woman's goal was to make her angry. Stupid as she was, she gave what Louisa wanted. That was how things ended up like this. She had no one to blame but herself. She was too trusting and too silly. That was why she had fallen for Louisa's trap.
Tears kept streaming down her face, but the ache in her heart never lessened. Instead, she felt more and more suffocated. She just wanted to love someone. Should it be this hard? Was it worth the sacrifices she made? She didn't have any answers to her own questions.
She wiped the tears that wouldn't stop falling. She wanted badly to drive directly to S City but she knew that she couldn't. Not only because of Kevin's family but also because of the ones who loved her deeply. There were many people who cared about her very much and she couldn't let them worry. Besides, it was also not safe for her to drive in such an unstable state. It was a long journey to S City after all.
The phone beside her kept ringing and she knew clearly who was calling. Nonetheless, she just didn't want to pick the phone up. She had no energy to deal with him now. She wasn't prepared to face him yet. Just for once, she wanted to get away from everyone. Kevin was calling Leena non-stop while looking for her on every street. It was a pain that the capital city was such a big place. It wasn't easy to replace her at all.
"Major General, do you think that Leena has driven back to S City?" Lee asked carefully. In fact, he had no idea what the hell had happened. He could tell that the Major General was deadly worried and anxious though. Thus, he knew that something bad must have occurred. Nonetheless, he didn't dare to pry, not now when he was seeing how stone cold Kevin's face was.
"No. I know her. She wouldn't do such a thing. She is not that impulsive." Kevin's eyebrows were deeply furrowed. Though Leena would act childish and throw a fit from time to time, he knew she wouldn't just leave the city and leave him behind. She was not that willful and heartless. She clearly knew the consequences of her actions, thus, she would never go back to S City at such a moment.
"What if she really has something to buy as she told you? How about looking for her in the supermarkets around here?" Lee was just listing all the possibilities. The only thing he knew was that Leena said something about buying things. He could only guess if it was true or not by the limited information that the Major General gave him.
"That's not possible. Just drive carefully! Drive around the neighborhood and see if we can replace her car." Kevin didn't know what his father said to Leena as he didn't have the time to ask. He knew that Leena had apologized to Louisa and was in a bad mood because of it. Thus, he guessed that his father's words could have torn Leena's heart.
"Okay, Major General." Lee's eyebrows were also deeply furrowed. Things were all good this morning when they went out. How could things turn out like this when they got back? Things just changed too fast.
Kevin kept ringing Leena but she never picked up. It seemed that she didn't even want to talk to him and chose to ignore his phone calls.
And he was right in fact. Leena indeed didn't want to talk. She calmed down after a long time of driving. It didn't mean that she didn't mind what happened anymore. She was just calmer than before and could think clearly now. No matter what, she was not in the mood to go back to Kevin's house. She had finally got away from them. Why should she even care if what she did disturbed them or not? It was after another hour that she considered that maybe she might have thought too highly of herself. It was probably just Kevin who cared if she would ever go back. Yes, he might be thinking of her or else her phone wouldn't keep ringing.
Letting out a silent breath, Leena thought that she couldn't keep on driving without direction.. She glanced at her phone for a short moment then suddenly picked it up. She didn't answer the call though. She hung up directly and called the number she remembered by heart.
"Hello, Leena! It seems that you finally remember your brother!" Edward was quite surprised but happy about Leena calling him. It was always a pleasure receiving his little sister's phone call. He automatically stopped the work he was handling and leaned back against his chair. He wanted to concentrate on every word Leena would say.
"Edward, don't be silly. How can I ever forget you? Look, I'm calling you right now, aren't I?" Leena replied though she was indeed a bit guilty about what he just said. She wouldn't have called Edward if she didn't have a favor to ask. Edward was a smart man and if she cut to the chase, Edward would definitely know that something was wrong. Therefore, she started with a joke before cracking her true reason.
