It'll Come Naturally

"You should start drinking less..." Annie said worriedly, "I'm really worried about your health." Despite Rain calling for a driving service every time he was intoxicated, Annie couldn't help but still be worried about Rain's health. Alcohol does harm to your body. "Don't worry. I won't drink too much," Rain responded. He then tried to change the topic, "So, did you like the wedding dress? How was it?" Rain knew Annie had gone over to Leena's place to try on the wedding dress that was specifically designed for her by Leena. He

looked forward to seeing his woman in a wedding dress.

"I love it!" Annie smiled widely. "Leena really knows her stuff! The dress is in the trend and it looks absolutely stunning too! I just know she'd let me look beautiful!" Rain could see how Annie had taken so much interest for the dress.

"I'm glad you like it. I mean, she has no other redeeming qualities other than being gifted in fashion design, you know?" Rain jested. Though, Annie took it the wrong way.

"Rain! Come on, don't say that!" Annie pouted. "As far as I'm concerned, she has many good qualities and almost everyone likes her! It's only Justin that would always pick on her every time they see each other!" Annie had admired Leena for a long time now, but her admiration for her grew when she learned that Leena was none other than LN FASHION's designer.

"Justin and Leena?" Rain repeated, as he pinched the bridge of his nose and heavily sighed. "Those two? They're both such a headache. They can't even see each other eye to eye." If ever they saw Leena and Justin pass a day without arguing, they'd all think that the end of the world was coming.

Annie then fell silent for a moment before she spoke up again, "It's actually really weird. I mean, they share a lot in common. But, maybe that can be the reason why they don't get along so well? Like, you know, chemistry? Do you get where I'm going?"

"Maybe you're right. But, let's not talk about them for now." Rain turned to Annie, his focus all on her. He wanted to know what was wrong. "You don't seem happy recently. Did something happen?"

Annie then covered her noise. "Why don't you take a bath first, hmm? You reek of wine!" She stood up from her spot. "I'll just go check on Joyce and Huey." She just didn't want Rain to worry about her and she had no intention of telling him why her mood had been down. 'If I tell him about Eugenia's threat, I don't think he'd rest easy...'

"Are they asleep?" Rain asked as he stood up from his spot as well. Rain felt he owed much to the twins as he hadn't really taken on the role of a father. He had already missed a lot and this time, he made sure he wasn't going to miss any more. Though, his position as the Vice President of the FX International Group and the CEO of the KD Group was demanding. It always consumed his time to be with his children.

Annie nodded. "They wanted to wait for you, but since they have school tomorrow, I asked them to go to bed early. It was pretty difficult to do so, you know?" Ever since they had moved in with Rain, Huey had changed. He used to be aloof and calm but now, he resembled his twin sister, innocent and adorable.

"I'll come with you to check on them," Rain said as he took Annie's hand in his. Annie smiled at Rain's gesture and then, they headed up to the children's bedroom. To them, love wasn't the strongest vow they had but rather, the simple company they spent with one another. She had never been happier being around him.

They both made their way inside the children's bedroom and their children were both fast asleep on their beds. Huey was tucked in on his bed while Joyce had her quilt all over the floor. They found it amusing that Joyce would be messier than Huey.

"You know, Joyce resembles you a lot," Rain said rather teasingly. He approached Joyce's bed, picked up her quilt and tucked her in bed.

"Don't make stuff up," Annie remarked, folding her arms. "I'm clearly not like that when I'm asleep!" Annie's cheeks turned red as she averted her gaze. She knew what Rain was talking about.

They had been separated for four years, after all. Of course, Rain would want to catch up on lost time and the best way to do that was with sex.

Annie couldn't last long with Rain's sex drive. They'd go for several rounds and her body could barely take in all of the sensations she felt in her body whenever they did. Annie had missed this but, it clearly got her exhausted every time. "Well, that's obviously because you're in my arms when you're asleep," Rain teased with a mischievous smile.

"Ahaha! I just remembered that I... Uh..." Annie was completely flustered. "I still have work to finish!" She then fled out of the children's room, her face beet red. 'It's not like I don't like that, but it's just embarrassing!'Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Rain's lips curled upwards, as he was amused with Annie's reactions. He followed suit and left the room silently.

Rain eventually arrived at the bedroom and he was surprised to find that Annie wasn't there.

'Huh... So she wasn't kidding when she said she had work to finish. She's probably in the study, then.'

Rain then decided to leave her be and went to the bathroom for a hot bath.

Stepping out of the bathroom, Rain still found Annie not in the bedroom. He sighed as he took on some casual wear and headed for the study. Before he could even open the door of the study, he heard her voice booming. 'Is she arguing with someone?' he thought to himself.

At the corner of Annie's eye, she saw Rain right at the door of the study. She hurriedly put the phone down. She looked at Rain, as if to check whether he had heard the whole conversation. Rain opened the door and stepped in the study. Annie feigned calmness as she asked, "Have you taken a bath?"

"Yes," Rain answered simply. "It's late. Who were you talking to?" he steered the conversation elsewhere. Rain didn't intend to pry something out of Annie's personal life, but he couldn't say that he wasn't curious.

"Oh, it's one of my clients. They weren't satisfied with the design I made," Annie lied. She couldn't possibly tell Rain that it was none other than Eugenia who had called. Eugenia said that, Sheena, her mother-in-law, wanted to meet her, but Annie had refused. Annie knew the story between Rain and the Ke family and she wanted nothing to do with them.

"You know, you can just always quit if work gets too demanding," Rain remarked. "I can support our family." Rain always wished for Annie to have a simple life filled with happiness, wherein she didn't have to worry about anything at all.

"Don't worry." Annie flashed Rain a reassuring smile. "I'm used to it." She had been through so much hardships during the past four years, but she still managed to break even. She had herself and her children to support after all. She owed her strength of perseverance to her children.00☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
