It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 1176 Louisa Lost Her Composure (Part Three)
Suddenly, the car screeched to a halt. Claire's body jerked forward because of the sudden brake. Before she could come back to her senses, Louisa grasped her shoulders, looking at her anxiously. "Claire, are you sure about what you just said?" Louisa asked in a hurry. Fortunately, they were not on a road with much traffic, otherwise they would surely have caused an accident.
"Louisa, why did you suddenly stop? You freaked me out!" Claire patted her chest, still suffering from the shock. Louisa's sudden brake had scared her out of her wits.
"I'm asking you, is it true? That Leng Group is really Leena's family business?" Louisa shook her. She couldn't believe that Leena was a noble woman. It was unbelievable! In her mind, Leena had always been a nobody. How could she accept that Leena was actually very rich? "Please let me go first. You're shaking me too hard, I feel like throwing up." Claire tried to push her hands away. She was flustered and didn't understand why Louisa lost her composure all of a sudden.
"Okay, can you tell me now?" Louisa glared at Claire as if she would eat her up if she confirmed that what she said was true.
"But haven't you been living in S City too? How come you didn't know about this? If you don't believe me, you can check it online. Isn't Leng Group only second to the FX International Group in S City?" Claire smoothed her clothes which had been wrinkled by Louisa's grip. She shuddered as she thought about Louisa's behavior just now.
"I know about Leng Group. But it never occurred to me that such a big company has connections with Leena. I heard that the CEO slavishly dotes on his younger sister. Does Leena look like a pampered princess brought up in a wealthy family?" Louisa pursed her lips. It was true that Leena's family name was also Leng, but she couldn't believe that it was Leena who was the envy of all the girls in S City. Leena didn't look like a spoiled girl. She could do house chores. Louisa had seen her doing them herself.
"Yes, she didn't look like a princess when she came to our house. But she returned to her roots as soon as she got here. She looks glamorous. Everyone adores her. Even the maids in her family like her a lot. Do you still doubt it?" Claire leaned back. Her mind was still preoccupied with the things she had learned yesterday at Leena's family house. Leena's true identity was hard to believe, but it was inarguably true.
"No, that can't be true. She can't be the rich princess, while I am the nobody who tried to pull her down. Claire, something must be wrong. Think carefully, you might be bewitched by her, otherwise you wouldn't say such unlikely things." Louisa shook her head. Claire had made herself very clear, but Louisa still couldn't believe it. She was determined to think that Leena was a nobody, instead of the rich lady whose brother owned Leng Group. If Louisa accepted that fact, she could never hold her haughty head high above hers.
"Louisa, you're so strange. Why are you so reluctant to accept this?" Claire was confused by her peculiar behavior. 'Is it really such a heavy blow for her to know that Leena is from a rich family?' Claire wondered.
"Kevin doesn't like me, so I pinned all my hopes on my family background to win him over. But now you are telling me that Leena is rich, so tell me, what would it take for me to steal him from Leena? I thought that I am better than her with regard to family. But now, all is over. I'm done for," Louisa sounded depressed like a defeated cockerel, completely losing all her will to fight.
"Well, in all honesty, there are many good men in this world besides my brother. You should stop being so obsessed with him. There are other fishes in the sea. I think it's impossible that Kevin will divorce Leena. No matter how much you love him, it's useless to try and impress him," Claire tried to persuade Louisa to give up on Kevin. She had given Louisa her firm and solemn promise to help her win Kevin over, but now she ate her words. Claire worried that Louisa would be angry at her. Her temper was unnerving.
"Claire, are you still my friend? That is not what you said to me before. Huh. You now know that Leena is richer than me, so you have begun to lick her boots and kiss her ass?" Louisa shot daggers at Claire. Why should she give up? 'No way! It is not finished yet,' she thought. He who laughed last, laughed the best. She still had a chance to turn the tide.
"Of course, I'm your friend. But I'm not as horrible as you just described. Do you think it's right to insult me like this when we are friends?" Claire bristled. She was pretty annoyed by Louisa's words. It was true that she had changed her attitude toward Leena these past few days, but it was not to the extent of kissing her ass.00000000000000
