Chapter 1058 Could You Place The Ring On My Finger (Part Two)
They walked towards the tea shop on the north street. Shannon led the way while Kevin and Leena followed behind leisurely, hand in hand. He was aware that Claire and Louisa were glaring at them from his back. Nonetheless, he didn't care. He enjoyed showing everyone his affection for Leena.
Louisa could have run to break Kevin's and Leena's hands off from each other if she could. The shining rings around their fingers were such a mockery to her. She was almost at the verge of breaking down. However, as much as she was pissed off, there was really nothing that she could do but to stare at them in pure anger.
"Louisa, are you really okay? You're hurting me." Claire felt a little scared upon turning to her friend. She had no clue as to why Louisa gripped her hand so hard.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I was just thinking about something. Are you okay?" Louisa hurriedly released her grip. She didn't mean to unwittingly clench Claire's hand and hurt her. It was just that her emotions went out of control.
"I'm fine. Louisa, do you really love Kevin that much? Was that why you got so angry with seeing them sweet with each other?" Claire looked at Louisa thoughtfully. Regardless of how much she wanted to help, if Kevin didn't love her then there would be nothing she could do. It would be impossible to threaten Kevin with a knife and tie him forcefully to Louisa anyway.
"I don't know. The only thing I can feel is how he completely occupies my mind. Do you think I am ill, Claire?" Louisa said in a low voice as she didn't want anyone to overhear them.
"No worries! I will not let it happen, Louisa." It was very easy to influence Claire. She couldn't help getting her hand on the matter whenever she saw Louisa in need of help. It would be wrong to say that Claire was a bad girl, she was just spoiled and innocent.
"Thanks, Claire. You're my last hope now." Louisa smiled in relief upon seeing that her tricks worked. Currently, the only one who could help her was Claire, the silly dumb girl.
Leena didn't know much about tea because she didn't like drinking tea. She was quietly standing aside Shannon as her mother-in-law did all the talking with the tea shop owner. "Kevin, do you also like drinking tea?" Leena suddenly blurted out in panic. It just came to her that she had never asked him about this before. What a wife she was!
"Just so so. Why? Do you also like to drink tea?" Kevin bent a bit and glanced at her. As far as he was concerned, there was only coffee in their house.
"No. I'm just wondering if you like tea. I can buy some and take it home if you like." A sweet smile cracked Leena's lips. Actually, she had been smiling throughout the day. Little did anyone know how bothered she was whenever her glance caught Louisa's necklace. It was extremely familiar to her. It couldn't be that Louisa just made up her story about the necklace. She saw the necklace herself the same day Kevin went home from abroad. She had always thought that it was a gift for her but never had he brought it up. She told herself that Kevin might have just forgotten about it since it was her turn to go abroad shortly. It was a huge surprise to see Louisa wearing it. The thought that he bought it for Louisa and not her made her heart flinch.
"We can buy some once we come back to S City. There are more varieties there as compared to here." Kevin liked to drink tea though he wasn't a tea enthusiast. Daisy was good at making tea and he was lucky to taste some whenever they were in the army base. The ones Daisy made weren't special in any sense. They were not rare nor even precious. It just so happened that Daisy had this delicate skill of making them, thus, the flavors of her teas never paled.
"Okay. But I don't know much about tea. We will need to buy them together when you have time, okay?" Although Kevin didn't show that much interest in tea, Leena was still wondering whether she should learn about tea ceremonies. It would be nice to learn new things but more importantly, it would be best if she could make tea for him often.
"Truth is, I don't know that much when it comes to tea but Daisy has a wide knowledge about it." Kevin answered casually. There was no underlying meaning behind his words. He just informed her that Daisy was good at making tea and that was it. His thoughts might be clean but then people who heard him might think otherwise and Leena was no exception. Her eyes darkened upon hearing Daisy's name but she soon smiled with relief. Daisy was her model and she was willing to learn things from her. Therefore, it was just normal for her to be praised by others as she herself couldn't stop doing it too.
"Yes! Sis Daisy is an excellent woman. She's so good that sometimes I feel humbled by her excellence," she said with a gentle smile. It was rare for her to admire anyone thus, Daisy was really special. Her personality towards love and career had simply won Leena over. "Leena..." Kevin suddenly frowned upon realizing that he did something wrong. It could have been okay for him to mention Daisy if Leena didn't know anything about his past feelings for her. The problem though was that Leena knew everything. Therefore, he felt guilty of speaking too highly of her.
"I'm okay. Let's go. Mom seems to have bought the tea." Leena chose to smile and stay silent regardless of how miserable she felt. She had already accepted the fact that staying with Kevin meant being hurt every now and then.0000
