It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1050 The Symbol Of Love (Part Two)

"You tell me. If I were you, Louisa, I wouldn't be hitting on someone else's hubby. Think about it. If he's unfaithful to me then he'll be unfaithful to you, too. Do you really want that kind of heartache?" Leena believed in fate. If two people were meant to be together, nothing

could separate them. If they weren't, there wasn't much anyone could do about it.

"You're just saying that because Kevin is with you right now. But he doesn't love you. I still have a chance with him." What Leena said didn't bother Louisa at all. She already had a plan. Once she and Kevin were together, she had her own schemes to make him all hers, and no one else's.

"He doesn't love me? Says who?" Leena simply smiled. Make no mistake, she was pissed off, but she wasn't going to show it. She wouldn't give Louisa the satisfaction.

"Humph! You think he loves you? You should recognize this necklace." Louisa pulled out the necklace she was wearing from under her clothes, believing that Leena would freak out once she saw it. It was Kevin's birthday gift to her.

"Why? Am I supposed to recognize it?" Leena asked, biting her lip. A wave of sadness crashed through her body. 'Kevin, weren't you in love with Daisy? Why did you give this girl a priceless necklace like that? Are you a cheater like other men?' she thought. "Come on, Leena. You must have seen this necklace before. On second thought, it's a gift from Kevin. I see why he never told you about it." A smug smile spread across Louisa's face. Louisa loved to play with the truth, bend it, twist it, letting others draw their own conclusions from what she didn't say as much as they might do from her words. It was a lie, but she just loved the look on Leena's face when she was crushed. 'Now let's see,' she thought.

"It's just a gift, Miss Ye, as you said. Why should I care?" Leena's tone betrayed no emotion. But deep down, she cared a great deal. When Kevin returned from training last time, he got her nothing, but managed to give Louisa this uberexpensive necklace. Clearly, she was nothing to him. She began to think back to last night, and the sweet words he had said to her. How much of that was a lie? Could she trust him ever again?

"It's not just a gift. It's a symbol of our love. He loves me, and it reminds me of him. That's why I wear it every day," Louisa continued prattling like a proud mynah bird.

"Really? Should I congratulate you then? Because you have something I don't have, after all." Leena looked down at her fingers, and a thought came to her. More accurately, it hit her like a slap. Suddenly, she felt her marriage was a sham. Kevin didn't even give her a wedding ring.

"Leena, doesn't it bother you that your husband gave me this expensive necklace? Shouldn't you be jealous?" Leena's reaction was even-toned. She didn't cry, she didn't even look sad. Things weren't going as Louisa had planned.

"Should I? It's just a necklace and it only proves that we can afford it." Leena sounded casual as if she were talking to someone about the weather.

"Leena, I know this has really hit you hard. You're twisting my words intentionally," Louisa sneered. She had almost thought Leena was as calm as she pretended to be. It turned out to be an act. She must have been flustered for awhile now. 'She's a good actress,' Louisa thought, 'but the jig is up.'

"Ha! Don't flatter yourself. Kevin's not the man you think he is. As a matter of fact, he's behind you right now. I guess we can ask him what's going on, if you want." Leena smiled sarcastically. Given the terrible situation, she was hoping to settle the matter once and for all. She was curious what Kevin would have to say about it.

"What?" Louisa turned back in a panic, afraid that Kevin was really standing behind her. She was relieved to see that he was simply walking towards them. She let out an audible sigh of relief.

Leena smiled to see her reaction. Since Louisa said Kevin loved her, why was she so nervous when she said Kevin was behind her? Obviously, that was a lie. That made Leena feel a lot better. "Leena, let's go. Mom wants to go shopping and she wants us to keep her company." Kevin frowned to see Louisa, wondering if she had said something awful to Leena. She seemed to be good at that, especially now that she was away from her father's watchful gaze. "Now?" Leena ignored Louisa immediately. It seemed to her that Louisa wasn't much of a threat to her anymore. She might be full of despicable tricks, but she couldn't come between Kevin and her. She was sure of that now.

"Yeah. You want to freshen up first?" Kevin brushed her hair with his fingers, which was disorderly from the wind. Women liked dressing themselves up and making themselves all perfect before going out. He didn't think Leena was the exception to the rule. "I'll go upstairs and change. These got dirty and smelly from the oil and smoke in the kitchen. I'd rather not go out smelling like my soup, thanks." Leena was a classy woman with good taste. She wouldn't go out with smelly clothes.

"Okay, go ahead. I think Mom's still getting ready." Kevin looked at her affectionately. His mom still cared a lot about how she looked. She must be standing in front of the mirror, working on her delicate image right now. "Got it. I'll be quick," Leena replied cheerfully and hurried inside the house.

"Kevin, is Claire going with you?" Louisa asked carefully. Hearing that Shannon was going shopping, she had another plan on her mind, thinking that this was a good opportunity to chum up with Kevin's mother.

"I don't know. Ask her yourself," Kevin answered coldly. Considering what had been going on between Claire and Leena, he didn't think his mom would ask Claire to tag along, in case Claire picked on Leena again.

"Never mind. I'm going upstairs too." Louisa had always wanted to be by Kevin's side. To be more accurate, she wanted to be with him 24/7. Right now, in the yard, it was just her and Kevin, but she didn't stick around, which seemed fishy. Kevin didn't stop her. He simply nodded and followed her inside to get his coat and phone.

"Claire, your mom and brother are going shopping. Are you going with them?" Louisa asked. Claire was reading a magazine with her legs crossed.

"What? They're leaving the house again? I'll pass. Mom doesn't seem to like me much these days. Forget it. I'll stay here and listen to music and read. It's better than getting my ass chewed. Besides, it's cold outside." Apparently, Claire wasn't enthusiastic about going. In fact, she couldn't wait to stay away from them right now. Louisa thought she was hurt and really wanted to go, but her pride wouldn't let her.

"But aren't you worried that your mom is going to buy things for Leena?" Louisa prodded. Seeing Claire's reaction, she was anxious. Instead of staying at home and wildly guessing what they were shopping for, she preferred to tag along and keep everything under her watch. After all, you never knew when a good opportunity to gain the upper hand would present itself. She needed to persuade Claire to go, so she could, too.0000
