It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1352 An Unhappy Encounter (Part Three)

up her husband and asked him to buy her a cake, despite the fact that he was busy at work.

"What did you just say? The signal is bad here. I'm hanging up now. I'll call you later." Saying thus, Leena hung up at once. A cunning smile lingered on her lips. Little did she know that her mischievous actions had made Duke the victim instead. Belinda immediately called The afternoon was pleasant. Leena had her delicious cake and coffee at the bakery. She wished that Patricia could wake up, but was aware it was wishful thinking on her part.

She looked outside the window and found that she was no longer in the mood to enjoy her food. After paying the bill, Leena walked to the door. As she opened it, a hastening figure knocked her to the ground.

"Damn it! Are you blind?" The arrogant tone sounded like it was Patricia's, but Leena knew that was too good to be true. It couldn't be her. She was lying inside the ICU, still unconscious. How could she appear in front of Leena magically?

"Please get your facts right. You knocked me down, okay? Now you're scolding me instead of apologizing to me." Leena struggled to get to her feet and rubbed her aching bottom. She was a little surprised to see Louisa standing in front of her. "Leena Leng, it's you again! Why do you materialize everywhere I go?" Louisa said as she turned up her nose and looked down at Leena. As the daughter of the army Commander, Louisa had the habit of belittling everybody.

"That's what I'm thinking too. You are present everywhere I go. Are you stalking me?" Leena was still downcast because of Patricia's accident and was in no mood to be polite to Louisa.

"Bah! Are you afraid of being in a room with me? Is that it?" Louisa was satisfied that Leena was finally treating her as a threat.

"You are way too full of yourself." Leena cast a scornful glance at Louisa and moved to leave. Louisa was a contemptible, quarrelsome woman who was always looking to make trouble. Leena decided it would be better to stay away from her. "Leena Leng, if it weren't for Kevin, I would slap you right now!" Louisa gritted her teeth. She tried her best to stop herself from laying hands on Leena. Louisa feared she would be grounded again if she gave in to the impulse.

"I'm afraid you won't have the chance to slap me ever again. I'm not a pushover; if you dare lay a finger on me, I swear I won't let you get away with it easily," Leena snorted. She didn't understand why Louisa hadn't learned her lesson yet. Hadn't she done enough? The nerve of this woman! "Bitch! Try saying that again!" Louisa said, still glaring at Leena with reproachful eyes.

"You should get your head checked!" Leena said to her steadily. It was a sheer waste of time to argue with Louisa. There was a growing crowd of lookers and it embarrassed Leena, so she turned to leave.

"Stop right there, Leena Leng! I haven't finished yet. You are a coward. Is that why you are running away? You're afraid of me, aren't you?" Louisa was mortified at being cold-shouldered. Insults flew out of her mouth as she stared at Leena's receding back, who was moving away from her rather swiftly.

Leena ignored Louisa's mean words and walked forward without turning her head. She didn't understand why Louisa was so brazen. Louisa had a quarrel with a salesgirl at the cake shop last time, but she still came back. What a hostile woman! Did she have any shame? Seeing Leena cross the street, Louisa hoped that a car would knock her down and flatten her right away. That way, Louisa could finally be with Kevin. Unfortunately for Louisa, she was doomed to disappointment.

When Leena returned home, it was still early. She called up Kevin to check when he would be back.

"Hi, Nana. Why are you calling?" Kevin was taking a nap on the back seat of his car when his phone rang.

"Kevin, are you still working?" Leena asked as she stretched out on the sofa lazily after kicking off her shoes. Warm satisfaction filled her heart at his soothing voice.

"No, I'm on my way home. I think I'll arrive in about four hours. What happened?" Kevin had been tired and exhausted after the full day of work, but the moment he heard her voice, he was once again in high spirits.

"Nothing happened. You are on your way, you said? I thought you would come back very late. I didn't buy any groceries. What am I going to cook now? Oh my god!" Leena said in a soft voice, immediately raising herself up into a sitting position.

"I finished my work ahead of time so I am coming back earlier. Sorry I forgot to call you first. Don't bother making me a meal. I'll cook something for myself when I get home," Kevin said and smiled. He had planned to inform her before, but after he got into his car, he felt so sleepy that he took a nap. That was why he forgot to call her up.

"Don't worry. I don't plan on making you a hearty meal. You are expecting too much." After hearing what Kevin said, Leena lay down again. She was in no mood to make a big meal. She decided to take a little rest first. In any case, if she cooked for him right now, the food would get cold by the time he arrived. She could just make something simple for him when he came home.

"Nana, you just broke my heart!" Kevin joked, but deep down, he was glad that Leena was beginning to regard him as family. Before, she used to treat him with utmost care and cautiousness. It used to stress him out. It was good that she was becoming more relaxed around him.

"Liar! I know you are making fun of me." Leena pressed her lips together. She knew he was just teasing her.
