My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"Excuse me. I have to answer this call," Leena interrupted, giving Claire an apologetic smile. She picked up the phone that was on the table. She had been afraid to miss Kevin\'s call and so hadn\'t put the phone in her pocket.

"Where are you, Nana? I\'ll come and pick you up." Leena heard Kevin\'s anxious voice as soon as she answered the call.

"Are you finished with work? We\'re in the teahouse next to the hotel. You will find us when you come over," Leena answered, her heart bubbling with happiness. Her cheery voice cut Louisa to the quick.

"Yeah. I know where the teahouse is. I\'ll be there soon. See you later." Kevin put the phone in his pocket and hurriedly walked through the crowd.

Leena pouted. Kevin was not affectionate by nature, but he shouldn\'t have hung up the phone so abruptly. She hadn\'t even replied back.

"I will. I\'m just afraid that Mignonne would get tired." Gerard\'s smile had a hint of bitterness in it. He took a sip of tea from his cup to hide his sorrow.

"Don\'t worry about that. Claire can join you. The more the merrier. It\'s her first time in S City too. You both can keep each other company." Kevin didn\'t think it was a big deal. Listening to him, the others wondered if he was trying to bring Gerard and Claire closer.
