It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1183 Are You Happy (Part Four)

"I am not tricking you, alright? I am just being polite, like always. It is important to have good manners. Therefore, I knock twice before walking in." Leena's big eyes were sparkling with mischief. She was now lying to Edward's face boldly. Under no circumstance would she admit to his accusation. "Cut the crap! I can easily recognize all your little tricks! You never knock on my door." Edward shook his head and laughed. He knew Leena well enough to tell her bullshit. She was just like Rain, restless and full of surprises. They were like two spoiled kids who tended to act on their own wills. Whenever they came to his office, they walked in straight without knocking at all. 'Manners? Unheard of with these two.' thought Edward with a big grin on his face. He looked at Leena's naughty face and again shook his head helplessly. 'She must have heard about my bad mood from Anna earlier. She must have teased me, in order to cheer me up a little bit.' Edward sighed silently as he came to the conclusion.

"Whatever you say! I am now more sensitive about manners. I am aware of them because I have matured!" Leena caught his arms and said softly. She smiled at him, knowing that he would never shout at her or get mad at her. Edward always had a good temper whenever he was with her.

"So, according to you, you have matured? Oh really? May I ask, is getting married secretly a mature behavior?" Edward tapped on her forehead softly and snapped. Judging from his tone, Leena could tell that he was just as annoyed as Duke when it came to her secret marriage with Kevin. The topic was sort of taboo for everyone who cared for her.

"Not now! Stop mentioning it! Edward, you are just like my big brother! You guys keep barking about the same old thing! Could you let it go already? Let bygones be bygones! It happened for a reason. I am already happily married. Just let it go!" Leena pouted her mouth and stared back. It seemed to her that it would take a long way before they could finally accept Kevin as her husband. Leena hoped for that day to arrive soon. For now, things didn't seem easy for her and Kevin. They needed to gain trust and blessings from everyone. "Sorry, no can do. I think I would nag you about this even after half a century. I am permanently traumatized by your behavior." Edward said with an evil grin as he sat down on the sofa. Not surprisingly at all, Leena's face twisted with anger as she was genuinely annoyed by his words. Poor lady. Edward just sniggered triumphantly at her aggravated look.

"Whatever. I don't want to talk about it anymore. Let's change the subject, shall we? I heard that you are not in a good mood today all day long. What and who are you angry with?" Leena tilted her head and gazed at Edward. She was curious to know the answer. Her face was lit with eagerness.

"Who else would piss me off? Of course, it was you. You and your rude manners!" Holding back his laughter hard, Edward gave her a cold stare. He still looked amazingly handsome in spite of his fake angry look. Time did not leave any trace on his face as all his features remained as gorgeous despite his age.

"Me? How is that even possible? I haven't seen you for days. How could it be me?" With her lips pressed together, Leena looked all confused. She didn't expect his answer at all. How could she possibly piss him off?

"Well, you pissed me off by not paying me frequent visits!" With his back leaning casually against the sofa, Edward opened his mouth and teased her. He looked relaxed and somewhat arrogant.

"Haha! Edward, you are funny. What are you talking about? Don't be ridiculous. You are just replaceing excuses here!" Leena burst out laughing as her irritation turned to amusement. She walked up to him and sat down next to him on the sofa.

"Why did you turn off your phone last night?" He sounded serious as he was genuinely worried about her safety. It was important for him to know her whereabouts as he cared for her greatly.

"About that. I dropped my phone and it broke. Did you try to call me? Wait a minute, is this what you're angry about?" Even more confused, Leena twisted her lips. She could clearly see the care in Edward's eyes when she looked up. Why would he get so mad over her phone? He shouldn't be in a bad mood anyway just because he could not reach her.

"Well, you tell me. How did you drop your phone?" Edward chose to bury the truth deep in his heart. He didn't wish to tell her the real cause of his anger at all. It was through Daisy that he heard about what happened to Leena last night. He was upset that she didn't contact him in time when she was in trouble. Was it just him who thought that they were close and wished that they were closer. She shouldn't have kept things away from him.

"Well, it was an accident. I didn't hold it tight enough. It fell from my hand!" Leena looked away as she made a lame excuse to cover up the facts. She didn't dare to tell him what happened last night. She knew what Edward was capable of. He was a man of iron will. Things would lead to bigger troubles if she told him about the incident. Thus, she would rather keep him in the darkness. It was a lot better this way than to see him seek revenge for her. Edward would do anything to get even, no matter who he was fighting against. Leena didn't wish to get him involved at all. Therefore, she even went all out and stopped Tom from telling him the incident.00000000
