Chapter 1417 Create A Business Empire For You (Part One)"There you are! I didn't think you'd be home yet." Leena happily walked up to Duke and cuddled up to him. Though they were brother and sister, she was always loved, so cuddles and hugs were common between them.
"What are you doing here?" Duke asked, pretending to be indifferent to her. In fact, in his mind, he really wanted her to visit more, but he wasn't about to let her know that.
"I miss you, silly! Not buying it? Alright, the truth then. I came for dinner." Leena looked up, smiled sweetly, and didn't mind how Duke felt when he heard that.
Belinda smiled, too, and thought, 'Does this guy still think he's the only one in Leena's heart? Ha-ha! He has a strong competitor now. And that is Kevin.'

"Kevin? Why do you care? You always give him a hard time. He's not here. He doesn't want things to be awkward," Leena said mischievously. She blinked, and thought, 'How can this big man be meaner than a woman? I've been married to Kevin for awhile now, and he's still mad. That's nuts.'
"Ha ha! He should know it's all in fun. Now wash up for dinner!" Duke frowned and seemed a little unhappy.
"Did you hear that, young lady? My husband asked you to wash your hands. So get your paws off him! He's mine!" Belinda said in a playful tone and raised her eyebrows. Sometimes Belinda envied the way they got along with each other, wishing she had a big brother like Duke to take care of her. 'She's lucky to have so many brothers like Duke. Why can't I get pampered too? Lame!' Belinda thought.
"Belinda, stop looking at me like that. It's scary." Leena shrank into Duke's arms, pretending to be frightened by Belinda.
"That's right. I'm giving you the jealous wife glare. So hands off!" Belinda said jokingly. She had always been blunt, with no filter.
"Hear that? She's threatening me." Leena turned to Duke and pouted in an exaggerated way.
"Yeah? So? She's pregnant now. She's allowed to be a little nutso. Just go wash your hands, okay?" Duke gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead, and then shook his head resignedly. Now he finally knew what it was like
wouldn't talk to Leena otherwise.
"I will. But why Dorothy? You think she's up to no good?" Luke's face was a mask of confusion. 'Isn't this the woman who signed with FX International Group?' Luke wondered, 'Why spy on her? Did I miss something?' action

"You mean the report about Dorothy and the Major General? I remember they said they were being followed by paparazzi." Luke looked at Edward doubtfully and thought, 'That was some time ago. Why is he so agitated now?'
"She showed up at the army base, no disguise. She wasn't hiding from anyone. I think she did this on purpose." Edward tapped on the table in a rhythmic pattern, thinking, 'If she went to Kevin to pay him back for a favor, it makes sense. But why would she want to meet Leena?'
"Then should we warn the Major General and Leena?" Luke asked. He believed Edward was right about this, as usual.
"No. Just send someone to keep tabs on Dorothy. And, if necessary, you can ask my dad for bodyguards to protect Leena. Go home and relax. Your wife will be happy to see you." Edward smiled playfully, a glint of amusement in his eyes.
"Don't make fun of me, Mr. Mu. You know me too well." Luke's mouth twitched a little. He knew why Edward said this, but he had little interest in married life. He liked being a bachelor.
