It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1267 Duke's Wrath (Part One)

Belinda just smiled, not saying a word to Duke. It confused him. He had no idea what was up until he got dragged to the ICU. All of a sudden, he felt a bad feeling creep up on him. He looked at Kevin. Why was he here? Who was in the ICU? Why did Belinda get him to

this place? Duke had an answer to all the questions in his head, but he refused to believe it.

"What the hell is going on? Why am I here?" Duke didn't want to assume the worst, but he had a terrible feeling. He lost his usual cool, afraid of hearing their reply. The panic in his heart rose.

Kevin and Belinda looked at each other. They wondered how to break the bad news to Duke without making him go crazy. Neither of them opened their mouths. They didn't know how to explain the situation.

"Duke? I thought you were still abroad? When did you come back?" Tom, who had just gotten out of the ICU, asked in surprise when he saw Duke. He had come out to tell Kevin that Leena was finally stable and not in dangerous condition.

"I am the one being kept in the dark! Why are you all here so early in the morning? Who's in there?" Duke looked from one person to another. His heart pounded faster in his chest as he got more and more anxious.

"Okay, let me explain the situation to you," Tom said, slightly furrowing his eyebrows. Fortunately, Leena was out of the dangerous condition now, so there was no need to hide this from her brother. To be honest, they couldn't hide something this big from Duke anyway, even if they wanted to. The real problem here was how to tell him.

Belinda and Kevin looked at him with grateful eyes as he said this. As Leena's doctor, Tom was the most appropriate person to explain Leena's condition to Duke.

"Then tell me! I'm still waiting!" Duke urged. He didn't understand what Tom was so hesitant about.

"Last night, Leena fell in the water. She inhaled too much of it. Plus, she had not fully recovered from her cold, so she nearly lost her life. But don't worry, all is well now. I just checked on her. She is out of the emergency situation. We can put her in a private ward now." Tom tried his best to be crystal clear, but he left out an important thing. He himself didn't know when Leena would wake up.

"What? How did Leena fall into the water? How did it even happen? Kevin, explain yourself!" Duke demanded angrily, suddenly grabbing Kevin by the collar. Leena was Kevin's wife but he didn't take good care of her. Instead, he let her fall into the water and endangered her life. He was not a capable husband! This was unforgivable!

"I am sorry!" Kevin's lips thinned into a grim line. He didn't want to explain himself, nor did he think he deserved to. What Duke was implying was right. He didn't protect Leena well enough. This was partly his fault.

"Screw you! I don't want to hear your apology! I should have never let you come near Leena!" Duke smashed his fist in Kevin's face before anyone could react and blackened his eye. Kevin didn't strike back. He could have surely dodged Duke's fist, but he didn't move, not even a bit. He let Duke punch him because he thought he deserved it. Truthfully, he felt a little better because of it.

"Stop it, Duke! It was not Kevin's fault! He was in a conference at the army base when Leena fell into the water!" Belinda grabbed Duke's hand abruptly, in case he wanted to punch Kevin again. She had heard from Daisy that Kevin hadn't been sleeping well for two days because of a complication with the army. That was why he looked so exhausted.

"I don't give a damn! It's his fault that he didn't protect Leena!" Duke fumed but because of Belinda, he didn't try to punch Kevin again. He was afraid he would hurt her unintentionally. He remembered that Belinda might be pregnant and grew cautious.

Kevin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Duke hadn't held back when he punched him. Kevin was in great pain.

"He is not a God for fuck's sake! He can't be by Leena's side 24/7!" Belinda glared at Duke in anger. He didn't have the right to blame Kevin for not protecting Leena enough. Did he forget what had happened to her by the sea? How could he even put the blame on Kevin? Well, in Belinda's opinion, the men here were all unreliable. First, Edward nearly endangered Daisy's life. Then, Rain lost the woman he loved. The two men in front of her were also a handful. They shouldn't blame one another. They were all the same.

"Kevin, I'm warning you. If anything happens to Leena, I will make your life miserable!" Duke gritted his teeth in anger and glared at Kevin. Had he known that Kevin would treat her dear sister like this, he would have broken them up the moment he knew they got married in secret.

"What are you doing, Duke? Didn't you hear Tom? Leena is out of danger now! All she needs right now is rest. She doesn't need you two fighting over this!" Belinda knew Duke would be worried sick over Leena and vexed with Kevin. That was why she didn't tell him the news the minute she got to know it. Now, looking at Duke, she felt she had made the right decision.

"Can I go in and see Leena now?" Duke turned to look at Tom with expectation, trying his best to contain his rage towards Kevin.

"Just wait a minute. Let us run a final test on her and make sure she is really stable. Then we will transfer her to a private ward." Tom could understand how anxious Duke was. After all, everyone knew how much he loved his sister and how he always spoiled her. But still, what was more important right now was Leena's health. Duke would have to wait for a few minutes until the check-up was done.

At this, Duke didn't insist on seeing Leena anymore and glared at Kevin one more time. 'Don't tell me that Leena's accident actually has something to do with you, Kevin, or I will make you pay for it, 'Duke thought.

"Kevin, why don't you go and see a nurse for your wounds? We will wait here for Leena," Belinda suggested to Kevin apologetically. She felt bad about Duke's violent behavior, not having expected him to hit Kevin out of the blue.0000
