It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1271 The Sleeping Beauty (Part Two)

"Kevin, thank you so much for not holding Louisa accountable. I know you spared her only for my sake. I promise you, she will not have any chance to get close and bother you in the future. You have my word." The Commander's face blushed red with shame when he said this. It had never occurred to him that his daughter could stoop down so low and be a home wrecker. Her behavior had provoked much discussion. Luckily, Leena's friends didn't really hurt her. Otherwise, the Commander would be so overpowered by his guilt and shame that he wouldn't have the face to look Kevin in the eye again. "Let bygones be bygones, Commander. Don't think too much of it. Louisa has been punished, right?" Kevin didn't know how Edward had punished Louisa, but he believed it was not an easy one.

"I'm afraid she still hasn't learned from her mistakes. Never mind. I'd better call the higher authorities now. The sooner, the better." The Commander was furious with the manner that Edward punished his daughter, but he had to hold back his anger. After all, his daughter deserved it, especially that Leena was still in a semi-stable state. He had heard of Edward's cruel style of punishment before, and he knew Edward had showed his daughter mercy. The Commander had a clear estimation of himself, and he knew Edward would by no means show mercy to his daughter because he was a Commander, but because of Daisy.

"Thank you, Commander. Whether the high authorities agree to your request or not, I appreciate your efforts." Kevin rubbed his brow. If the high authorities didn't agree, he had to leave this evening. Leena hadn't woken up yet, and he didn't want to leave her behind like this. After hanging up, Kevin poured a glass of warm water and wet a q-tip to clean her lips with the utmost care.

"Nana, why are you still sleeping? Are you still mad at me? You are not willing to give me one more chance, aren't you?" Kevin let out a bitter smile and was overcome with remorse. He would do anything to wake her up, even give his life if that was what it took. Leena heard the man's voice again, which stopped her from approaching her mother. She was eager to know who it was. But no matter how hard she tried, it was so dark around her that she could hardly see her hand in front of her, let alone the man's face. "The sun is shining brightly today. Don't you like basking in the sunshine with me in the garden? If you are going to sleep any longer, you'll get moldy and stagnant." Kevin really wanted to know what Leena was thinking. Tom said she was already out of immediate danger. Why was she refusing to wake up? Was it because she just hated to see him?

"Nana, don't you believe that I have fallen in love with you? You think it's a dream. You are willing to live in that dream, aren't you? Let me assure you, I would prove to you in words and in deeds that I do love you." If Leena woke up now, Kevin would be willing to show her his real self and let her know that he fell in love with her and couldn't live without her.

Edward stood at the ward door for a while before coming in, pretending not to hear what Kevin had said. He looked at Leena first and then cast a glance at Kevin, asking, "How's she? Did Tom say when Leena would wake up?"

"Doctor Qin doesn't know either when Leena will wake up. It all depends on her own willingness," Kevin answered in a calm voice. He didn't care whether Edward had heard what he had just said to Leena. He meant it, and he was willing to let everyone know that he loved Leena.

"Are you okay? Why don't you go home for a rest. I'll be here to take care of her. I can handle the files here," Edward offered. Edward disliked Kevin before, for the latter actually had a thing for Daisy first but then ended up getting married to Leena. But after he heard Kevin's confession, Edward's opinion of him changed.

"I'm good. I've taken a few naps on the side of the bed," Kevin admitted, a little embarrassed. After cleaning himself up at home, Kevin hurried back as soon as possible without taking a rest. On seeing that Leena was in a stable condition, he slept for an hour or two on the side of the bed. With a few rest periods like that, he was no longer that tired.

"Well, then you should go and eat something in the hospital canteen. It's lunch time." Edward had to chair an important meeting that morning, so he had just called Tom to inquire about Leena's condition instead of coming here. Rain also had come to the hospital that morning, and becasue of that, he was late for the meeting. As soon as they adjourned, Edward wasted no time coming to the hospital.

"Don't worry about me. Claire just called and she will bring me lunch soon." Edward realized Kevin would by no means leave Leena. He sighed and thought, 'If he had realized his true feelings for Leena earlier, things wouldn't have worked out this way.'

"Okay. I'll go replace Tom and ask about Leena's situation. Please do take good care of her." After thinking for a whole night, Edward had calmed down and was more composed in the morning. Maybe part of the reason was because Leena was already out of danger. He felt much relieved and was more able to control his temper. As a matter of fact, he was no longer in the fight mode.00000
