It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 1453 Starting School (Part Three)
Leena had a very complicated feeling when she stepped into Tom's office. She was anxious because she didn't know what medicine Tom was going to give her this time. Moreover, she was also a bit expectant. What if the previous medicine he gave her worked? She honestly didn't have a clue if the medicine Tom was about to give her would work this time. Regardless of those things, she was still willing to try. She didn't want to have any regret. She knew that Kevin wanted a child and she didn't want to leave him just because she was incapable of giving him what he wanted. God knew that she would do anything to give him a child.
She had all these thoughts inside her head when she pushed the door open. However, she was stuck on her feet as soon as she saw what was going inside Tom's office. Shame suddenly flooded her as she didn't expect to see a number of doctors inside the place together with Tom. It was easy to tell that they were all discussing something important based on how the doctors' faces looked. Instantly, a beautiful blush appeared on Leena's small face when all the serious doctors turned to her in unison upon hearing the door open. She felt extremely embarrassed now.
"I am so sorry! It seems that I have interrupted you," said Leena quickly. However, it was too late to step back now. If she turned around and walked out, it would seem too weird, right? Thus, she ended up putting an embarrassed smile on her face as she apologized to them.
"All right, let's wrap up today. You can all go back to work," said Tom to all the doctors in his office upon seeing Leena. He didn't even show any sign of surprise. It seemed that he had expected for her to come and find him. After all, he knew how badly Leena wanted to make herself healthy and strong enough to bear a child.
The doctors all nodded in a friendly way to Leena. They collected their documents and walked out one by one. On the other side, Leena, who still felt embarrassed about what happened just now, put on a polite smile and watched them walk out. She didn't move a bit because she didn't know if she should just walk inside as if nothing happened.
"Come on in, Leena!" Tom got up from his comfortable chair and walked to the water cooler. He grabbed a plastic cup, poured a cup of warm water, and then put it on the table for Leena.
"Did I interrupt something serious? I feel so bad. I should have come later." Leena's eyebrows furrowed cutely. She walked to the sofa and sat down.
"No, you didn't interrupt us at all. We were about to finish anyway. Here, drink some water first." Tom poured the cup of warm water for Leena because he knew Leena well. If nobody was there to remind her to drink some water, she would definitely not drink water at all because she didn't like drinking plain water. Thus, every time Tom saw her, he would pour her a cup of water and make her drink it all. Plus, she needed water and it was good for her health.
"Water again? I just drank some water." Leena immediately refused because she really didn't like drinking water at all. It was the reason why she abruptly lied. Her beautiful eyebrows knitted into a deep frown.
"Don't lie to me. I know for sure that you didn't drink water. Look at your lips. They are chapped because of lack of water. Just finish the water, will you?" Being the brother who knew Leena so well, Tom immediately saw through her lie. He didn't give her any chance to refuse. He really couldn't understand why Leena would be so against drinking water. He had thought that she paid attention to her health.
"That's because I was in a hurry this morning and forgot to bring my lipstick with me. You know the weather. It's cold and dry. The wind is extremely strong today. That's why my lips are chapped. It has nothing to do with not drinking water." Leena mumbled in a small voice. She was making excuses and she was sure that Tom knew it too. Though she said these words, she still took a sip from the cup. She knew that her brother meant well and he was just worried about her.
"Why were you in a rush? You don't have to work, do you?" Tom slightly furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. He had no idea that Leena had to get up early today. He didn't know why she was this busy. After all, she didn't have to work, did she?
"Why? It's because you don't know how to take good care of your future wife! Thus, I have to step up and take care of her for you." Leena puckered her lips and glared at her brother without real malice in her eyes. She had no idea why Tom would be this dense. Why couldn't he be a considerate and loving boyfriend for Patricia? He didn't even realize that his girlfriend needed to be taken care of because she was still injured and couldn't look after herself.
"What do you mean by that?" Tom had a confused look on his face because he didn't understand what Leena was saying. Future wife? Did she mean Patricia? She was good in the hospital room, wasn't she? Why did she need Leena to take care of her?
"I knew you would say this. Don't you know that her personal nurse is in a few days off because of an emergency? Patricia doesn't have anyone who can take care of her right now. That's why I am here today." Leena didn't know what to say to Tom anymore. Why didn't he know that Patricia's nurse was not here? How could he not know about it? Last time she checked, he was still Patricia's boyfriend. He really should know.
"I have no idea. Since when? Why didn't she tell me about it?" Tom's frown deepened even more. Last night, a dangerous infection happened to a patient and made the said patient's breath stop for a few seconds. He had brought the patient back to life but he was still in a dangerous condition right now. That was why he had a few good doctors in his office to discuss what they should do next. It was the reason that he didn't have time to visit Patricia today. Thus, he had no idea that she was struggling without a personal nurse.0000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
