Chapter 1633 Let Her Go (Part Two)
Leena went home after the show. Though she was very busy during her business trip, she still made it a point to visit some places as she wanted her baby to feel how it was being in the place where she had lived.
It was six o'clock in the morning when the plane she was in arrived at the S City International Airport. Kevin was already there too. He rushed to her as soon as he saw her pushing her suitcase in a trolley. His happiness was evident on his face when he approached and welcomed her with a sweet kiss. "Nana, how's your trip? Are you tired?" He began to examine her carefully right after he let go of her lips. He then picked her suitcase up for her.
"I'm not tired. Have you been waiting for a long time?" Leena wasn't really tired about the journey but she still felt that the trip was a little more exhausting than usual. It could be because of her pregnancy, thus, she felt that way.
"No. I've just arrived. I asked Lucy to make breakfast for you so you can have it when you get home. Let's go!" Lucy was a professional housekeeper who was arranged by Edward to take care of Leena. She was a cautious person. "Yeah, I'm a bit hungry." The fact that Leena hadn't been abroad for a while made her feel weird about foreign food. As a result, she wasn't able to eat much while in Paris.
"You greedy cat," said Kevin adoringly. He then led her out of the airport happily while carrying all her things with just one hand.
"It's not me. It's the baby." Leena pouted like a spoiled child. She was even acting like a straightforward kid. She was already too comfortable with Kevin's presence, thus, she wasn't hiding her feelings anymore.
"Oh, yeah? When did our baby say that? Why don't I know?" Kevin couldn't help laughing as he thought, 'She has been using our baby as an excuse lately.'
"It's telepathy! Don't you know? Every mother knows what their baby is thinking," replied Leena immediately. It was good that she was able to make up that reason fast! She didn't even have an idea if what she said was true or not. "Really? Then I really don't know that." Kevin put the luggage in the trunk and opened the door for her to sit in.
"Do you want to know? Do you want me to tell you?" said Leena with pride of a peacock. It felt good to see Kevin believed what she said even if it was without any basis. She had completely forgotten about how long her journey had been to get home. "Okay, then tell me." Kevin pretended to be curious as he wondered how far could Leena cope up with what she was saying.
"I'm not going to tell you for free," countered Leena upon sensing how Kevin was provoking her. In reality, she didn't have much idea about what she was saying. She just said it to make fun of Kevin.
"I'm paying you with my body. Is that, okay?" Kevin shot her a flirty smile and drove away. As he drove, he thought, 'Since when did she start caring about money?'
"Kevin, tell me. Does a man like you have any case-dough in his pocket?" Leena's question shocked Kevin to the core, thus, his foot slipped the brake. Their car suddenly moved sideways and it was fortunate that he was able to respond to the situation quickly. It only took a snap for him to regain composure and go back to the right lane.
"Don't ask strange questions while I'm driving. It's so scary." Kevin said seriously and then he looked at her. He did not breathe a sigh of relief until he was certain that she was fine.
"Okay, but why do you react like that? You must have it, right?" Leena said with conviction as she thought, 'If he doesn't, why did he react like that?'
"Why do you say that?" This was the first time Leena talked to him about money. She never mentioned it in front of him before. It seemed that she was as neurotic as any other pregnant woman and liked to ask such strange questions.
"That's a woman's intuition. Do you believe it?" Leena looked at him sideways. She hadn't seen this handsome man for several days, so she missed him very much.
"It's a pity to tell you that your intuition is wrong." Kevin never hid his money from Leena, thus, he never had any case-dough.
"Really?" Leena's stare at him turned thoughtful. She wanted to make sure that he wasn't lying.
"Yes." Kevin answered without even thinking. He didn't know why she was interested in this. Nonetheless, he was willing to answer all her questions honestly.
"All right, then. I believe you." A cunning smile cracked Leena's lips as she talked. She found it interesting to tease him like this.
"Wait. Did you just play a trick on me? Tell me. Who did you learn that from?" It was only then that Kevin realized that Leena just played a trick on him. He had to admit that it made him feel both helpless and happy. It seemed that he was going to be teased by her for the rest of his life.
"I learned it from you. Don't people say 'A wife is her husband's echo"?" Leena raised her nose up in the air. She was both so happy and proud that she had long forgotten that she was hungry.
"All right, then. I like your answer." Passionate love did not mean happiness for a couple. Most of the times, the plain and light emotions that each brought to one another were already the definition of happiness. Just like any other ordinary couples, they did have times when they quarreled. Nevertheless, happy or mad, love was still a wonderful thing.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Leena was about to deliver their baby around late autumn. However, Kevin wasn't there for her that time since he was out in a mission. That made her extremely nervous. After all, she was a person who was very afraid of pain.
"Leena, don't worry. We're all here." When Leena gave birth to her baby, Edward, Tom, Rain, and Duke all came. The handsome men were waiting for her outside the delivery room. Perhaps people who didn't know them would think she had a dissolute life. thus, she didn't know who the father of her kid was. And that was why she had so many men with her.
"Okay. I'm not afraid, really." Leena's face was turning pale with pain. However, she was still trying to smile just like before. She was a sensible girl who would never bring her negative feelings to others.
"Be strong! Leena," Rain said nervously. This was the first time for him to witness and experience such a thing. Thus, he was the most nervous of all the men there.
"Why do I think that you're more nervous than I am?" Leena wanted to laugh but the pain stopped her.
"Tom, can you do something to lessen her pain?" Duke still cared about Leena as much as ever. He would definitely try everything he could to make things easier for her little sister.
"She's going to have a baby. How could it not hurt?" Tom glared at Duke and thought, 'You have seen a woman giving birth last time. Why are you still so uncollected this time?'
"Be quiet! Don't you see how hard it is for Leena? Why do you have to argue with each other at this time?" Edward glared at them and neither of them said a word. Edward's words seemed to work better.
"I'm fine. Don't worry about me." As soon as Leena finished speaking she felt another twinge of pain. She could not help but hold Edward's hand so tightly that her nails sank into his flesh. However, Edward remained expressionless as if nothing had happened.
"Tom, can you ease her pain?" Edward forgot what he had just said to them and suddenly blurted the question out loud. From the way Leena grasped him, he knew how painful she was now.
"I really can't. It could have been less painful if it is cesarean, but I don't recommend it." Normal childbirth was better than caesarean birth in every way, so as a brother and doctor, he didn't want Leena to have a caesarean birth.
"I don't want a caesarean birth. I can hold on, really." Leena honestly wanted to see Kevin the most at that moment. However, he was a soldier who always had his own mission to complete.
"Another contraction within five minutes and we'll take her to the delivery room." As a doctor, Tom had been observing the intervals between her pains.
"Girl, we can't go in with you. We'll be waiting for you outside the door. Don't be afraid." Edward pulled his hand away from her. Leena's abuse on his hand was so evident that it was covered with deep fingerprints. Even his blood filaments were all showing out due to how hard Leena had grasped him.
"Okay. I know. I won't be afraid," Leena said emotionally. Although Kevin wasn't with her, her brothers' words made her feel warm and happy.
"All right. We should go now. We all have to trust her." Tom carefully lifted her out of bed. He felt a little worried as he wouldn't be the one to help her inside the delivery room.
"How's it going? Did she give birth?" Suddenly, a sound of anxiety came. Daisy appeared in front of everyone in a green uniform.
"She is just going into the delivery room. What are you doing here?" Edward looked at her in surprise.
"I was just downtown when Belinda called me, so I came over." She was so worried that her forehead was still covered with sweat even in autumn.
Belinda was supposed to come to the hospital with Duke today, but Spencer had to stay with Belinda. Thus, she had to call Daisy.000
