"Thank you, Mom!" Leena said gratefully, happily accepting the great wishes and blessings from her mother-in-law. Leena recalled how Shannon had measured the size of her finger the night before yesterday and finally knew the reason for it. She thought of yesterday morning when Shannon had gone out early, probably because she wanted to make a trip to this place, to pick out the rings for them. As Leena imagined her getting here, she was deeply touched by the love of her mother-in-law. She felt like the happiest girl in the world because she was surrounded by that love, and a brilliant smile flowered on her face.
"You don't need to thank me, kids. This is probably the only thing I can do for you. There is too much else I can't do. Especially for Leena, I always feel we owe you so much. You're not getting anything you deserve from Kevin's family. As his mother, I feel terribly sorry about it. But now that you're my daughter, I will take care of you and love you as much as I can. I'm always here to support you, as your mom and your family, " Shannon said humbly. She knew Leena was a good girl and deserved a happy family, but she also knew there was little she could help her with in the Gu household. Leena had dealt with all the unfair treatment by herself, not letting it bother her too much.
"Hmm. How do we owe her so much? Didn't you just give her a diamond ring?! It should be her who owes us all of this, " Claire said unhappily as she heard Shannon's words. She obsessed over the ring given to Leena by her mother. As she thought of Shannon's warning before they had stepped out of the house, she didn't dare continue h
, that he truly wanted to protect her and take care of her. Even though she had been upset about not getting the ring from Kevin, the love of her life, the sadness vanished in an instant. Leena was a girl who could be pleased easily. She never asked for too much, so she didn't expect too much. A small, affectionate action, or just some tiny details could touch her and win her heart. Since it was Kevin who put the ring on her finger, it was enough for her. Whether or not the ring was bought by him was no longer important. Happiness rose from Leena's heart and diffused in the small space between them. Time seemed to stop moving. The surroundings seemed to freeze at this all-important moment, the happiest one of her life. She felt like she could read Kevin's mind and understand his silent promise to her. He didn't need to spell it out for her, she knew him well enough. It was never too late for him to admit his true feelings for her, and to begin putting his love into action. As long as Kevin was by her side, Leena would wait for him to realize it, even till the end of their days.
