It'll Come Naturally

"Well. Louisa, this is Leena, my college classmate's girlfriend. We've met before, but I haven't seen her since I left S City." In his second year after meeting Leena, Summer left S City. It was not until a few years later that he returned because of a work opportunity. "Louisa and I have known each other for a long time, so you don't have to introduce us to each other at all," Leena whispered. It turned out that he had left S City, which was why she lost contact with him.

"Oh, I see. I didn't know that. Your husband is a soldier, right? Then he should know my father-in-law." Summer suddenly clapped his forehead. How could he have forgotten that?

"That's right. It's how I got to know Louisa." Leena chose her words very carefully, fearing that there could be a misunderstanding, as Louisa had liked Kevin once.

"Well, why don't you give me my wallet first?" Louisa suddenly became gentler in front of Summer.

"OK. I almost forgot about it. You are always forgetting it at home." Summer pulled out his purse as he spoke. He seemed to blame Louisa, but Leena noticed that it was the way in which he showed his love for Louisa. It seemed that Louisa's life was not as bad as Leena believed before.

Since they insisted on giving her back the money, she had to accept it. If she didn't, they might think that she didn't respect them.

"Mom. Dad is phoning you. Do you want to answer it?" Just then, Richard suddenly joined them from the car, with Leena's phone in his hand.

"No." Leena was still mad at Kevin, so she refused without hesitation, completely forgetting the existence of Summer and Louisa. When she saw their quizzical looks, she smiled awkwardly and said, "We just had a little fight, so..."

"It turns out you guys also have fights?" It was unclear whether Louisa said this out of ridicule, spite or schadenfreude. Her face was a mask, not giving any hint as to her true feelings.

"No matter how good a couple's relationship is, they will definitely fight with each other. You guys must know this, right?" Leena did not want to think of what Louisa meant. She just sighed.

"You're right. Well. Thank you for your help today, Mrs. Gu. Good-bye!" Louisa was secretly relieved to know that there could be arguments between them too. It turned out that the man she used to love was not above quarreling with his wife.

"If you have time, we talk again at some point. See you." Leena considered that everyone now had families and children, so there was no need to dwell on what happened before.

"If possible, I'll phone you." Louisa found it doubtful that she was ever going to be friends with Leena. However, life was hard to predict. Therefore, she did not reject her directly.

"I will invite you and Patricia to dinner one evening. Goodbye, Leena." Summer waved farewell. He had a crush on her before, but after so many years, that feeling no longer existed.

"OK. Drive safely." Leena wondered at the smile on her face. It turned out the relationship between people could sometimes be so marvelous. After so many things happening and dividing them apart, they were drawn back to the start in a circle of life. "Mom, please! Daddy wants to talk to you!" Richard kept pushing her, thinking, 'What does that couple want?'

"So what? I don't want to talk to him at all! Tell him I don't have time to talk to him." Leena was determined to make Kevin submit to her will this time, so she didn't want to take his calls.

"Are you sure that's what you want to tell him?" Richard thought, 'If I told him that, dad would let me have it.'

"Hang up if you don't want to. No one is forcing you to say that." Leena got into the car angrily, slamming the door. The smile on her face had completely disappeared.

"Are you kidding me? Hang up on him? I don't dare to hang up on him!" muttered Richard, caught between a rock and a hard place now. Realizing that she really wasn't going to take the call, he held the phone to his ear.

"Dad, you must have heard what mom said? She said she doesn't want to take your call. So, please don't give me a hard time." Richard thought he should depart for the military school early tomorrow, instead of staying at home. In this way, he wouldn't be caught up in the conflict by these two people.

"Tell her that if she doesn't take my call, her previous request will be canceled." Kevin smiled wickedly on the other end and thought, 'Now you're going to talk to me.'

'Will that really work?' Richard thought doubtfully. Not knowing if it was helpful, he said tentatively, "Mom, dad says if you don't take his call, he'll cancel what you have requested for."

"What? Give me the phone!" As soon as she heard what Kevin had said, Leena grabbed the phone from Richard.

"You're granting my request?" Leena asked happily. She hadn't believed that he would give in and grant her whimsical request.

"If I don't, I'm afraid you'll never talk to me again," Kevin said helplessly, thinking, 'I owe her actually. It is natural that she should be angry, and taking a set of wedding photos is really not a big deal. How could I not agree to her request?'

"That's the deal. Don't change your mind later." Leena puckered up shyly, as she blushed with anticipated thrill. She looked as lovely as a teenager girl. She wanted to retake their wedding photos, because she wanted to re-experience their love when they were older.

"Of course. Now that I have

promised you, I will do it. Richard said you were going to a restaurant Say which restaurant you are going to, and I be there in forty minutes." Kevin walked out of the office as he spoke. Even though he was over fifty, he was still a majestic man.

"All right, then. We just came out of the supermarket. We're going to the Westin. We'll wait for you there." Leena's tone brightened

considerably. 'I really don't known et

what happened to change his mind. I kept begging him yesterday, even seducing him, but he wouldn't

answer me. Now, unexpectedly, he answers me today.' Leena thought.

"OK, Then. Edward will lose money again." Kevin laughed. Every time Leena went to the Westin, she would order the most expensive dish with her free Dragblac Card.

"He's not going to lose anything. I'm just spending money for him." The FX International Group was already fabulously wealthy. What was more, since Justin inherited the company, he had launched a gaming business, which brought in even more profits. It was said that the popular interactive game was designed by Justin when he was just a child. But it was not launched into public beta until two years ago.

Richard rolled his eyes at Leena and thought, 'My mom really doesn't treat herself like a guest of the FX International Group, still the company is wealthy. So, maybe mother is right?'

"Oh! Don't let him hear what you just said, or he'll chide you again." As people aged, they became very particular about everything, and so they were often given to chastising others when they didn't approve of their actions.

"I'm not that stupid. Okay. See you soon. Drive safely. Bye!" Leena didn't want him to talk over the phone while driving, as she was always concerned for his safety. Besides, she had gotten the answer she wanted anyway. "Okay, see you later." Kevin hung up, pulled open the car door and got in. The faint smile remained on his face, as he truly loved these games of intrigue with his wife.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

By the time he got to the Westin, Leena had already ordered a meal, so he had something to snack on as soon as he got there.

"Daddy, what exactly is your agreement with mama?" Richard asked in a low voice, leaning sideways.

"You really want to know?" Kevin looked at him and thought, 'This kid's curiosity is going to get him into trouble some day. Doesn't he know curiosity kills the cat?'

"Yes. Tell me." Richard really wanted to know what could possibly have made his mother angry for so long, and why he had to suffer the whole afternoon!

"Sorry, no comment." Kevin continued eating calmly, not giving any credence to Richard's outraged expression upon hearing this.

"What? Is it necessary to keep it a secret?" At times like these, Richard was confronted by the divide between adulthood and childhood and he railed against that barrier, as all young adults did. He felt that his father was being spiteful and he momentarily sulked. "Nana, try some of this." Kevin ladled some of the dishes into Leena's bowl, completely ignoring Richard's distress.

"I don't like it." Leena refused with a frown, shaking her head slightly.

"This is good for your health, go ahead, try it." The oyster that Kevin offered her was not only an aphrodisiac, but also rich in zinc and other minerals.

"Here, eat this, Richard. You are growing." Leena transferred the oyster into Richard's bowl. She didn't want to eat it at all. Kevin glanced at Richard suspiciously as he saw Leena's move.

"Dad, don't look at me like that. I didn't ask for this. Mom put it into my bowl." Richard said innocently, thinking, 'I'm your son. Why are you looking at me like that? It's only an oyster, isn't it? Why are you being so mean?'☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
