My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"That's good. You really scared me," Leena said, sticking out her tongue. She would be really busy soon and she was wondering whether she should hire a part-time worker to help with her normal chores. Because she worried that once she got started with the summer lines, she would have no time for housework.

"Huh, you get stressed out too easily. You need more confidence, really." Belinda smiled. Since Leena made it obvious she wasn't interested, she stopped pushing her. As Leena said, she just graduated not long ago. And she needed more time to find what she really was into. Belinda remembered that she was forced into the family business as soon as she graduated, while her father went abroad with his wife to enjoy their retirement. Belinda was dog-tired from work ever since. So she didn't want Leena to end up like her.

didn't mention this to you. She won't give you a hard time. Truth be told, what you saw today is only a small taste. You'd never guess how popular Leena is in this city."

Kevin meant this as a warning. Leena not only had lots of friends, but powerful ones. He wanted to warn Claire not to make schemes with Louisa, particularly plans to hurt Leena. Otherwise, no one could save her. And she couldn't rely on him either. He was barely able to handle Duke as it was. Even with all his military contacts and his circle of friends, no one could bail her out of whatever trouble she got into if she hurt Leena.

"I know. I won't mess with Leena. I've been trying to get to know her. Maybe we could get along. We're just not really close right now. My fault, probably." Claire smiled mischievously.
