Chapter 1044 A Frank Talk (Part Two)


    "Ah! So it''s already thatte? What shall we do? Mom must be worried a lot!" The woman said as she


    jumped out of the bed. She almost fell down as she did it too carelessly. It was fortunate that Kevin was


    right there and caught her in his arms even before she hit the floor.


    "It''s okay. Mom said that we don''t need to hurry back. Don''t be nervous. We can stay here for tonight."


    The man put his coat around her tiny body considerably. It was a bit cold inside the room.


    "Really? Didn''t you say that tofort me?" Leena felt a bit shy with how his arms remained wrapped


    around her. Kevin''s continuous gentleness made her face turn red.


    "You don''t believe it? No problem. We can call Mom to prove it." The man said as he pretended to fish


    his phone to make a call to his mother.


    "Stop! Didn''t you say let''s eat something? Let''s go now!" Leena rejected Kevin''s offer instantly without


    even thinking twice. She wasn''t ready to go back home and face Shannon yet. She acted so childishly


    earlier and she was too embarrassed about it.


    "Are you going downstairs like this? Why don''t you go and clean yourself a bit before we go for the


    dinner?" Kevin suppressed hisugh and then gave her messy look a quick once-over.


    "Oh! I forgot it. Hold on. I''ll finish it soon." Leena stuck her tongue out naughtily and ran to the


    restroom. She was happy until she stepped in the restroom and saw her face in the mirror. Her smile


    automatically melted. She looked at the mirror agonizingly and examined how bad her frustration was


    showing on her face. All her disguise disappearedpletely at that moment.


    She walked out of that room, refreshed after cleaning herself. There was not even a trace of


    unhappiness on her face at all. She was far from who she was just seconds ago. Leena couldn''t help


    but mock herself silently as she thought that she should probably be an actress and y on the


    stage for her excellent skills.


    They looked like a perfectly in love couple as they walked downstairs with them holding hands.


    However, Leena knew that this was not just the case. Her mind was weighed down despite the sweet


    smile on her face.


    "Mrs. Gu, you''re awake. Shall we start the meal?" The housekeeper greeted them happily as soon as


    she saw them. She had just finished warming the dishes with the thought that Leena might still be


    sleeping. It turned out that she did it at good timing.


    "Yes, please. I''m sorry for troubling you and thank you." Leena replied in a polite tone. She knew that


    the housekeeper cared for her so much simply because of Edward. Nevertheless, she chose to show


    her good manners to her.


    "You''re wee, Mrs. Gu. It''s part of my job." The housekeeper rubbed her hands awkwardly. She


    rarely saw a rich woman like Leena who was so down to earth.


    "Leena," Lee turned to Leena and greeted her. Although he did not know what exactly happened to her


    in the Gu Family, there was a part of him that subconsciously believed that she was the one who was


    wronged. Based on the couple of days when they got along, he did not think that she was the type of


    person who would deliberately cause troubles for others.


    "Oh, Lee. You are here!" Leena did not expect that Lee was there too, thus, she was surprised upon


    seeing him. Was the trouble she made for Kevin that big? Goodness! Even his subordinate knew that


    she had run away.


    "Yes. I came here with Major General." Lee replied honestly as he rubbed his hands. He felt a bit shy


    whenever he was faced with Leena, something that never happened when he was faced with Kevin.


    After all, he was just a young man, therefore, it was just normal for him to be shy before a beautifuldy


    no matter who she was.


    "I''m sorry for causing such trouble for you." An awkward smile cracked Leena''s lips. Unlike Lee, she


    felt a bit ashamed instead of shy. As the wife of Lee''s superior, she did not set a good example at all.


    She had acted so ill-behaved that she made him and Kevin busy and anxious.


    "Oh! Leena, don''t say that to me. I can''t take that." Lee took a quick glimpse at Kevin before replying to


    Leena. He didn''t want to be punished with heavy training for epting the woman''s apology. What was


    more, he actually did nothing but just be a driver. That was all! It wasn''t like he experienced the same


    as his Major General who was already at the brink of madness earlier. He could swear to it that he saw


    him almost go insane.


    "Alright! Let''s have dinner." Kevin shot Lee an emotionless re. He felt something odd crept in his


    heart. Men were naturally territorial and would never be happy to see their wives close to any other


    man. Kevin was not an exception to that and he felt genuinely neglected in this situation.


    As a reaction, Lee ended up scratching his head as he wondered why the Major General suddenly


    acted weirdly to him. Kevin was very different from the former Major General. Was he just pretending to


    be calm? Lee was afraid that he might face his punishment somewhere in the future. He could not help


    but shudder at the thought. His Major General seemed to be more cunning.


    "Please, take a seat!" Leena said to the housekeeper and frowned slightly. They had a lot of servants in


    their family. However, this situation where the masters ate while the servant stood beside never


    happened at her home


    "Mrs. Gu. I''m not supposed to have dinner with you." The housekeeper waved her hand to reject the


    offer in a hurry. She would not ept such advice because she believed that servants were not


    supposed to have meals with their masters.


    "It''s okay! Take a seat and join us! We''re family and you don''t need to be too polite with us," Kevin also


    joined Leena to persuade the servant. He would feel more uneptable and intolerable to enjoy dinner


    with somebody watching than Leena. As an enthusiastic soldier, he would never befortable with


    that thought as he believed in equality. There was no such thing as ss difference to him.


    "Yes! Major General and Leena are very easy-going. You can get along with them well. Don''t worry.

    Just sit down and have dinner with us! The more people, the merrier, right?" said Lee. He and Kevin


    had always got along with each other in afortable way, be it inside or outside the army base. Kevin


    just simply didn''t care about hierarchy and such.
