"Really? That is great!" Kevin was glad to hear the news, but he was puzzled. 'If this is not the reason why Leena is upset, then what could have happened to bother her so much?' he wondered.
"Yes, it really is. I'm so happy for her," Leena said and smiled. She truly loved this moment — strolling together through the beautiful park in peace, when no one was around.
"Nana, do you have something you want to tell me?" Kevin stopped and looked at Leena in the eye.
"No, I don't. I just want to go for a walk with you after dinner," Leena said, dodging his eyes. She didn't think it was the right time to tell him the truth — that she could not get pregnant.
"I wish this moment could last forever. We could walk hand in hand to the end of the world," Kevin said as he started walking again. He had thought she would tell him what she had been hiding this evening, but it seemed she was still not prepared for it. He'd have to be more patient with her.
"I feel the same way. What a coincidence." Leena turned to look at Kevin with a smirk. She decided not to look so dejected in front of Kevin, otherwise, he would grow concerned.
"Yes, it is a coincidence," Kevin said. He rubbed her hands together to warm them up. Suddenly, a thought popped into his head — that Leena would leave him. 'What am I thinking?' Kevin shook his head.
"Kevin, I've made a prepayment for the utilities and gas. The water and electricity as well as the gas won't get cut off in a long time," Leena told him casually. She looked calm, but deep down, her heart was breaking into pieces. The pain seemed to spread through her veins.
"Why are you saying that?" Kevin stopped in his footsteps once again. He stared at Leena, trying to figure out
but he could not force Leena to tell him. Her sweet smile was ripping his soul apart as a sharp dagger would. She was laughing in his arms but crying on the inside. It was painstaking.
Leena met Dorothy once again. This time, they met at the promotion party for a TV show. Leena had gone there as Rain's companion.
"Leena Leng, you look stunning tonight," Dorothy told her with a smile. She was wearing a purple dress that accentuated her perfect body.
"Thank you, Miss Lu. You look good too," Leena answered politely. To most people, she was a sight to behold. She had fair skin and brown hair that emphasized her bright eyes. She was fond of white, so she chose to wear a white dress tonight. She looked like a fairy out of a tale with her light make-up and jacinth lipstick.
"Why isn't Major General Gu with you tonight?" Dorothy asked her when she noticed that Kevin was not around.
"Oh, well, he never comes to this kind of parties," Leena explained casually as her eyes followed Rain. She saw him flirting with the actresses. Leena felt sorry for him. She wondered how long it would take for him to finally move on and find love again.
