It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1256 She Has No Will To Survive (Part One)

"Rain, how is Leena? What did Tom say?" The moment Belinda arrived, she peeped into the operating room through the glass window and asked for Leena's news. She was in no mood to make fun of Rain at this critical moment. "Tom is giving emergency treatment to her. Don't worry. She's gonna be fine. We have Jerry. He's the best doctor in the world," Rain assured Belinda. But deep inside, he was worried about Leena as well.

"I hope so. What happened to her? How did she fall into the water? It's so cold this evening." Belinda walked up and down with unease. She was flustered and her mind was in great confusion. It was not until now that she realized how important Duke was to her. If he were here right now, she would not be in so much panic.

"I don't know either. I guess Edward knows what happened. He was the one who brought Leena here." They had been so concerned about Leena's safety when they heard the news that they forgot to replace out what had actually happened. Leena was saved from drowning. However, they all knew that she could swim. So how did she almost drown?

"Claire, you're here! Were you with Leena when she fell into the water?" Belinda finally registered Claire's presence and guessed that the latter would know something about this.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't taken part in the Dream City competition, Leena wouldn't be in danger right now." Recalling what had happened, Claire burst into tears again. She felt guilty and repentant. If she had seen Louisa's true colors at the beginning itself, the latter would have had no opportunity to hurt Leena. "Dream City competition? What is that?" Belinda asked with a frown. Worry was etched across her face.

"I know about it. It's a fashion design competition. FX International Group is one of its sponsors," Rain said, rubbing his brow. If he had known that Leena was one of the judges, he would have attended the competition instead of leaving it to his subordinates. Then this might not have happened.

"I don't care about the competition. All I want to know is why Leena fell into the water." Belinda shook her head anxiously.

"Um... We had a fight with Louisa and she accidentally bumped into Leena. That's how Leena fell into the water." Even though Claire had fallen out with Louisa, she still absolved her friend of responsibility subconsciously. She said "accidentally", as if Louisa's actions had been unintentional.

"Louisa? Who is Louisa?" Belinda asked. She had never heard of this woman before.

"Louisa is the daughter of the Commander, my brother's superior. We used to be friends." Claire was quite nervous, for Belinda looked rather frightening.

"Why did you have a fight? Leena is very easy to get along with. I don't think she would have a fight with anyone." Belinda was certain that Leena was too reasonable to start a fight.

"Um..." Claire bit her lower lip, not knowing how to explain everything. Too many things had happened.

"Just spit it out. I also want to know what happened," Edward said. His clothes got wet when he saved Leena from drowning. He had changed into something dry and felt much better now. He stood in front of Claire as his eyes bored into her, dark as ink. "I-I..." Claire stammered. She was too frightened to say anything and took several steps back, biting her lower lip. Edward's face had soured since saving Leena.

"Loosen your tongue, or I shall have to replace other ways of making you talk." Edward had met Louisa once and even bought a new laptop for her. She had failed to make a good first impression on him.

"Here's the thing. Louisa has a thing for my brother and has hostile designs against Leena. She tried to drive a wedge between Leena and Kevin many times but failed. She has a strong grudge against Leena. She also failed in the competition tonight. Since Leena was one of the judges, she clearly exploded with the rage that has been simmering in her for quite some time. They had a fight by the pool and Leena fell into the water," Claire said. Edward was so frightening that she didn't dare conceal the truth. She hoped that he would be not too hard on Louisa later on.

"Ha! Louisa Ye, right? Luke, where is this woman?" Edward rubbed his wedding ring. 'The daughter of the Commander? So what? Even if she were the Commander, I would not spare her if she hurt Leena, 'he thought.

"Mr. Mu, we've taken her to the Security Department of FX International Group. We're waiting for your instructions now." Luke lost no time in getting Louisa under control. As Edward's right hand, Luke knew he would not let Louisa off so easily.

"Keep an eye on her. I'll let her know the consequences of hurting Leena." Edward curled his lips into a cold smile. Luke couldn't help but shiver at this cruel expression. 'Woman, you bit off more than you could chew!' Edward thought.

"Count me in," Rain said. He was an obstinate and unruly man and was not afraid of offending a commander. Anyone who dared to hurt his beloved sworn sister would be punished by him. He would show them no mercy.

"Calm down guys. Let's wait until Leena is out of immediate danger first," Belinda said. She was in no mood to care about their revenge. All she cared about was Leena's safety. Leena was Duke's beloved sister. Belinda couldn't imagine what he would do if something happened to Leena. Duke loved his sister so much that it even made Belinda jealous. 'Why do women always suffer when men make mistakes?' Belinda thought, sighing.

Claire stared at everyone's dark expressions and felt both lucky and scared. She was lucky that she changed her attitude towards Leena in time, otherwise she would have ended up in the same grave as Louisa. She was scared because she didn't know what Edward would do to Louisa. Judging from their fierce faces, Claire knew Louisa would come to no good end.

Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps broke the silence. A man in military uniform appeared before them. Kevin had rushed here to see Leena. Lee followed him inside the hospital.

"Kevin, you're finally here." Claire heaved a long sigh of relief upon seeing Kevin.

"How is Leena?" Kevin asked in a hurry. He had never known it would take so long to reach the hospital from the military base. He had been in deep suffering all along the way.

"The doctors are still working on her." Claire lowered her head in shame. She felt that what happened to Leena was her fault.

"Kevin Gu, you should pray and repent before God. If something happens to Leena, I will make you go down with her." Edward grabbed Kevin's collars and stared at him with dangerous eyes.

"Major General Gu!" Seeing Edward's actions, Lee reached out in an attempt to pull him away, but Kevin stopped him. Lee stepped back, watching them helplessly.

"If something bad happens to Leena, I would not forgive myself either. You should wait until they operate on her," Kevin said in a cold voice. He freed himself from Edward's grip easily. All he cared about right now was Leena's safety; he was in no mood to be gentle to Leena's sworn brothers and face their accusations.

"Bah! Kevin Gu, I am telling you bluntly that if Leena doesn't make it this time, I will have you and I buried along with her," Rain sneered, casting a scornful glance at Kevin. Resolution was written all over his face. Apparently, he had no interest in living any longer. Annie's disappearance had been a huge blow to him. There was nothing to keep him in this world now.

"Come on, guys! Are you cursing Leena? Or do you not believe in Tom?" Belinda cast the three of them warning looks. Why were men so volatile? They were in the mood to fight even in such a critical moment!0000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
