"That is really nice of him to say so. Have you had your dinner already?" said Kevin as he looked away from the papers. He wasn't interested in dealing with those now. Rather, he looked at Lee's face and noticed that he had been sweating due to the long trip he just had to get there.
"Don't worry about me. I have eaten something on the way. How is Leena doing now?" said Lee as he cast a concerned stare at the sleeping Leena. She used to be so energetic and cheerful. However, it wasn't the case right now as she lay motionless on the hospital bed. The sad sight made Lee a bit depressed. He felt his throat ache a little so he quickly looked away.
"She hasn't woken up yet but I think it won't be long before she recovers. You know Leena, right? She is not the type of person who enjoys lying in bed all day long." As he spoke, Kevin reached out to tuck Leena's stray hair to the back of her ear. A bitter grin cracked his lips. He was just consoling himself. He knew that there was nothing that he could do to wake Leena up at this stage. Even someone as extraordinary as Tom couldn't give his words about the exact time Leena would be waking up. Things were really not looking fine for them at the moment.
"I really hope for Leena to come back to her senses soon. Major General, is there anything I can do for you?" said Lee to comfort Kevin. It worried him a lot to see Kevin as gloomy and down as this. He had been with Kevin for years and this was honestly the first time Lee saw him being this discouraged.
"If you have time, could you please help drive Leena's car back? I got a phone call today that the car has been fixed. I have to stay h
him so much. She couldn't possibly choose her own background, could she?" Resignedly, Shannon sighed and turned the stove off. She turned around and worriedly gazed at Claire. As a mother, she cared greatly for Kevin and it wore her out to see him this down. She had to do something for him to share his burden.
"Well, there seem to be no secrets then. You guys have known that Leena is from a rich family since the very beginning!" Claire covered her mouth in shock. It never occurred to her that her parents knew about Leena this well. She had always thought that her background was an untold story.
"Of course, we knew! Your father doesn't like Leena very much because he is deeply bothered by her family background. He is concerned that her family might be the hindrance for your brother's career. Who knows what kind of trouble would she bring to our family?" Shannon gave her daughter a sad smile as she bitterly shook her head. She knew her own son well enough that she trusted in him perfectly. Kevin was such a righteous man and he would never do anything against the laws to gain profits.
