It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 1108 Claire's Changes (Part One)
"Yeah! I'm gonna explain that to her. However, we should talk about my wife right now." Kevin closed his eyes as the mild sadness attacked him. Getting Leena hurt was the last thing he wanted and many had said that 'Prevention is better than cure.' Thus, It was better for him to learn how to love his wife rather than to repair their relationship once the damage was done.
"Leena and I are doing fine together, okay? You see, we have nothing to talk about, Kevin. We just happen to be two different people who are thinking differently from one another," said Claire strategically as she made their issue appear smaller. It might have taken Claire some time to realize that Leena was the epitome of elegance, calm confidence, and kindness. Only those few people who were good at observing could replace these things about Leena. Compared to her sister-in-law, Claire found herself a nobody.
"That's absolutely nonsense. Your perception of Leena is biased. You overlook her good traits and complain about the bad. Then you replace her impulsive? Why don't you try to see things from her perspectives? I assure you that you'll like her. I promise." Kevin couldn't bear to see Leena getting tired of handling her sister. He hoped to improve their relationship by solving the problems between the two ladies. He couldn't just take sides as doing so would cause the other harm. He really wanted Leena and Claire to get along with each other as that was the only time when he wouldn't worry about them anymore.
"Brother, don't you see that she's a hypocrite? She's just good at hiding her true self from others. She is just pretending to be lovely and kind. I hate her already." Claire had already been holding grudges against Leena from the beginning. She had always thought that Leena was a hypocrite by nature. Her later observations proved that Leena was never a punching bag. She knew that Leena only did those stunts to gain recognition from Kevin's family. That was a no-no. To sum it up, Claire disliked Leena more and decided to make her life a tough one.
"Claire, speaking of which, I think it's all my fault. She has given up a lot for me. She stopped being passionate and lovely so she could be what she thinks I want. She has quit being herself to please me and become a qualified wife. I'm the only one who understands her sacrifices. She changed for me. That's her only fault. Plus, she's too kind to harm anyone, isn't she? She has learned how to tolerate all kinds of injustice against her after our marriage. She has coped with you, and learned how to treat a mean and jealous sister-in-law with filial respect. I feel sorry for her because I can't understand what she's doing all these things for? What's the point of tolerating her husband's family when she gets nothing from it in return? Claire, you are with her in the same house, but why do you turn a blind eye to all her efforts? Damn you, Claire!"
Kevin's lips started to tremble. Sometimes he wondered how Leena could laugh so broadly and happily before her brothers but never showed him the same. After all that was said and done, she might be annoyed with the fact that he had once loved Daisy. In reality, he had been confused as well as he didn't have any idea that Leena knew about it. However, after all the explanations were given, it appeared that Leena interpreted things wrongly as she thought that he liked Daisy because Daisy was reasonable and calm. Leena had considered those things so much that she went to the extent of giving her lively personality up to make herself look mature. She stopped at nothing just to be called his perfect wife.
"Kevin, are you telling me that you are hiding some secrets from us?" Claire was suddenly curious if she had guessed wrong. Leena being sly and manipulative didn't mean that she didn't love Kevin. On the contrary, she loved him so much that she had stopped being an innocent and simple girl. Had she completely carved herself to secure their love and marriage? God! Did she do it all so she could love him more?
"No. Of course, I'm not. Just please try to get along with Leena. Do it for the sake of my happiness. She should know that she can still be accepted and loved by our family even if she continues to be simple and innocent. You may be proud and arrogant, Claire. You see, I know that you're still a nice girl. You have to be careful of those people that may take advantage of your innocence just to get what they want. I feel nothing for Louisa! Don't take any other senseless action because more than anything, what you're doing is hurting me."
Kevin gazed at her. There was fear in his eyes as he was afraid that his sister might bring him more troubles. He served the army and it was given that military marriages were something unshakable. However, even if he was just a civilian, his taste with women would never change. He would still not like Louisa as her character was too bothersome. She was too mean and jealous! She was the last thing he would like to be entangled with. Only a moron would fall in love with her and he was definitely not one. "Alright. I'll talk to her calmly if that will make you happy. But brother, how about Louisa? I made a promise that I would help her. Things have changed! I'm sure that she'll be pissed off once I turn against her." Claire might not like Leena much but then her brother's almost begging voice had successfully softened her heart. She was willing to swallow her pride for now and replace a way to get along with her sister-in-law. Perhaps the situation wasn't as bad as she thought.00
