Chapter 1233 The Role Of A Wife (Part One)


    With Patricia living in her house, Leena certainly felt less lonely than before because she had someone


    to talk to throughout the day. Unfortunately, she also had a lot more things to do and worry about.


    idents just kept happening with her friend around.


    "Patricia, you better tell me right now, why is there water on my floor?" Leena shouted at Patricia


    angrily with her hands on her waist.


    "I was helping you clean the floor, of course! I feel bad crashing for free at your apartment so I decided


    to help you with the housework." Patricia looked at Leena with innocent eyes. Was she wrong in


    wanting to help her do the chores? She didn''t understand why Leena was screaming at her like this.


    "Are you sure you are helping me clean the floor? Because from where I stand, I see that you are


    ruining it! So please, don''t ever feel guilty about living here rent-free! And you better not help me with


    my housework! You are only increasing my workload." Leena gritted her teeth, trying to contain her


    annoyance. She looked at Patricia with exasperation. Was her friend being serious right now? How


    could she not see that she was making it worse? She was ruining the floor by leaving the water on it.


    "Oh God! You are just being dramatic! I watched how you cleaned the floor yesterday and I did the


    same just now! I have no idea why it turned out like this. It''s not my fault, okay? me the floor for not


    sopping up all the water." At these words, Patricia looked at the wet floor with indignant eyes. She felt


    wronged. She was just trying to help Leena; she didn''t expect things to turn out like this. Besides,


    Patricia had slipped on the wet floor and fallen down. Her ass still hurt. She had already learned her


    lesson.


    "What? me the floor? Do you hear what you are saying? It''s a tile floor for God''s sake! And sop up


    the water? Do you think it''s made up of sponge? I really don''t know what to say to that." Leena was at


    a loss for words and couldn''t believe what she just heard. ''Fortunately, we don''t have a wooden floor, or


    it would have surely been ruined by now, '' Leena thought in relief.


    "Oh. It doesn''t sop up the water? Then what should we do? Do we just leave it and wait for it to dry?"


    Patricia looked bewildered. Finally realizing that she had made a mistake, she was clueless. It was the


    first time she didn''t dare raise her voice to Leena.


    "Well, we have to grab a dry mop and clean the floor again. Wait a minute, please don''t tell me that you


    didn''t dry the wet mop before mopping the floor." Leena red at Patricia again. She hoped that she


    was wrong; that Patricia wasn''t stupid enough to mop the floor with a very wet mop. But it was obvious


    that Leena was right in her assumption.


    "How did you know that? You are very clever, Leena!" Patricia smiled, surprised that Leena had


    guessed correctly. She didn''t even notice the dangerous glint in her friend''s eyes.


    "What the hell! I can''t believe you really did it! Patricia, I''m going to kick your ass for what you did


    today!" Leena ran over to Patricia in outrage. Seeing this, Patricia quickly dodged her and fled. It


    seemed that Leena was serious this time. She looked pissed off, so Patricia could only run away. She


    was not silly enough to linger around and face her wrath.


    "You are being ridiculous! It''s just a floor for God''s sake! Why are you being like this? I will clean it up


    again, okay?" Patricia didn''t expect Leena to be so angry about the floor. She kept escaping Leena, not


    wanting to get into her clutches.


    "Clean it up again? Do you think that I would be stupid enough to let you clean the floor once again?


    You would probably ruin the whole apartment if that happens!" Leena said, beyond pissed. She didn''t


    know how to deal with her friend anymore. ''Patricia will pay for this!'' she thought.


    "I promise I will dry the mop before I clean the floor this time. Just give me a second chance!" Patricia


    begged. She wondered when Leena became this severe. She had always been so gentle and nice. But


    this Leena was freaking her out.


    "Do you think I believe you? You are clearly very bad at housework!" Leena didn''t trust Patricia''s


    promise. She''d rather clean the floor herself than let Patricia have a second try at it. Only Patricia could


    be this shameless and im that she had been helping Leena with the chores. She was just adding to


    Leena''s workload, that was all.


    "Hey! Kevin, you are back!" Patricia suddenly waved at someone standing behind Leena. Her face was


    enthusiastic, as if she had spotted somebody who could finally save her.


    "Don''t try to distract me! Do you think I''d be stupid enough to fall for your lie? Kevin probably got off


    work just now. There''s no way he could be home this early." Leena didn''t budge. She still faced


    Patricia, thinking that her friend was trying to fool her. ''Patricia is trying to distract me!'' she thought to


    herself.


    "What are you two doing? Why is there so much water on the floor?" Kevin furrowed his eyebrows in


    confusion. The floor was all wet. He had no idea what had happened.


    "Um! Kevin, you are back early today." Leena immediately turned around upon hearing Kevin''s voice.


    She was utterly surprised. Kevin was really here. It seemed that Patricia hadn''t been lying. It also


    meant that Kevin had seen her yelling at Patricia. How embarrassing! All of a sudden, Leena didn''t


    know how to face her husband.


    "I had to run a few errands downtown and then I came straight home. I think I smell something


    burning." Kevin wrinkled his nose. Yes, something was definitely burning in the kitchen.

    "Ah! I was cooking the meat!" Leena quickly ran toward the kitchen in the middle of shouting this. In her


    hurry, she forgot about the wet floor and lost her bnce. Suddenly, she slipped on the water and


    started falling backward. Patricia gave a yelp at what was about to happen and hid her eyes behind her


    hands. She didn''t want to see Leena fall. However, when Patricia didn''t hear a loud thump or Leena cry


    out in pain, she slowly put down her hands and opened her eyes again. Leena hadn''t fallen down. It


    seemed that Kevin caught her right in time.


    "Be careful. Wait here. I will go and check the kitchen." Kevin let go of the hands that were holding onto


    Leena''s waist and walked over to the kitchen. He didn''t want her to hurt herself in this anxious state.


    "Leena, are you okay? You scared the shit out of me!" Patricia walked up to Leena, still a bit worried.


    She looked Leena up and down to check if she was hurt.


    "It''s all your fault! I just embarrassed myself in front of Kevin because of you." Leena red at Patricia.


    Luckily her husband was quick to catch her, or she would have fallen down and broken some bones.


    "What are you talking about? He is your husband! You don''t need to feel embarrassed at all." Patricia


    puckered her lips. She still couldn''t understand why Leena was so shy and awkward around her own


    husband.
