My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"Why do you talk like that, child? Go ahead. Leave us alone." Lloyd frowned. He knew that Duke had always been a cold man. Nevertheless, he got no clue on when had his son turned this childish. 'Is Duke still angry about Kevin and Leena's secret marriage? Oh, Lord! That's so unbelievable!' the old man thought secretly as he tried not to facepalm before their guest.

"Do you think I am not a busy person? Since you say so, I will leave you alone." Frankly, Duke had been waiting for Lloyd to shoo him away. He was now running two companies and he had to review a whole lot of documents every day. He wondered if the two men before him had any idea of how tiring it was.

"Go ahead. Don't disturb us," said Lloyd as he waved his hand impatiently. He might not be saying anything, but at that moment, it was easy to tell how much he liked his son-in-law than his own son.

Hearing his father's words made Duke roll his eyes and think, 'I brought them tea but they didn't show any gratitude for it. And now what? They are asking me to leave? That's so unfair to me!'

"Kevin, I'm sorry. You must be very sad these days. I guess we spoiled Leena a bit too much and that's why she is so impulsive." Lloyd said apologetically. Actually, he had always liked Kevin and he couldn't help but feel guilty about Leena's sudden leave. He thought he had not taught her well, thus, she did that.

"Kevin, I don't know what dad said to you but I hope you don't give up on Leena. She's a good girl and she deserves a good man like you." Belinda walked toward Kevin as soon as she saw him walk out of the study. She might be guilty of annoying Leena a lot in the past, nevertheless, she still wanted her to be happy.

"Belinda, don't worry. You know how much I love her. I won't give up easily." said Kevin as he forced a smile. He couldn't imagine himself falling for some other woman.

"That would be great. Go upstairs and take a break. Leena's room is still as before. I'll call you at lunch." Smiling back sadly, Belinda gave up the idea of chatting with him more and decided to offer him some rest. He looked so exhausted, a little older even. It was easy to see he had lost a lot of weight without Leena around.

"Okay. I'll go upstairs first." Kevin knew he really needed a good rest, thus, he didn't turn down Belinda's advice.

"All right. See you later." Belinda sighed and nodded her head politely to him as she thought, 'What have you done, Leena? How could you have the heart to hurt such a good man?'
