It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1461 Leena's Whereabouts (Part Three)

reproachful expression. But she could understand why he chose to do what he did.

"Where did she go? She is such a silly girl. Why didn't she tell me about it from the very beginning? And you, Tom! Why didn't you tell me about her health condition? I could have comforted her! Poor Leena, she must be miserable now," Patricia blamed Tom, casting him a "Tell you? Pfft! The only person needing solace at that time was you!" Tom blurted out. He didn't mean to blame Patricia, but just cracked a joke.

"Sorry! I forgot about that." Patricia knew how Tom cared about Leena, so she didn't mind his outburst at all.

"Don't worry. It was all my fault. By the way, how was your therapy today?" Tom walked towards Patricia and held her in his arms. His beloved sworn sister had gone missing, and he didn't want his girlfriend to disappear into thin air either. It would drive him mad. "Tom, are you okay?" Patricia asked worriedly.

"Shhh! Don't talk. Don't move. Just stay here in my arms." Tom rested his head beside her neck. Smelling her light fragrance, he felt much better.

Patricia went rigid, not knowing whether she should hold his waist or not. Tom had always been aloof and never showed his vulnerability in front of her before.

"Since Mr. Mu said that Leena's safe, we can rest assured now. So don't worry." After struggling to have a comfortable position for a long time, Patricia finally decided to hug him back.

"Um, I know it. I just feel a little tired and want to have a rest." Tom let go of Patricia. Her soft and warm body made his heart pump faster and feel hot, so he had to release her to cool himself down.

"Oh, yeah. I understand. We all have our weak moments." Patricia smiled, but deep inside she wondered whether he was feeling uncomfortable with her in his arms.

"Why don't we take a walk in the garden?" Tom suggested, in an attempt to rebound from his unusual behavior. He was mortified at what he just did.

"Great! I'm happy to go for a walk." Patricia flashed a wide grin. But deep down, she remembered the harsh words he had thrown at her before and felt sad about it but quickly brushed it off. She still couldn't believe that Tom had fallen in love with her. Tom helped Patricia walk towards the elevator. The sun was shining brightly, and it was a great idea to bask in its gloriously warm rays.

"Where are you going?" Belinda, who had just arrived, asked with a smile, standing not far away from them.

"Hi, Belinda. Are you here for another prenatal check-up?" Patricia was surprised to see Belinda.

"Yep! Maybe it was because I was very worried about Leena in the last couple of days, that the baby in my belly also became a little short-tempered. So I came here to have a check-up. Hey, Patricia, I haven't seen you in a few days and you look much better! I guess you'll fully recover a few days from now," Belinda encouraged her. Although Edward had confirmed that Leena was safe, Duke and Belinda were still worried about her. She had felt a tightening in her chest, and it was better for her to have her baby checked.

"You better pay attention to it and stay in a good mood. Otherwise you might get into early labor," Tom said with a frown. He didn't want anything to happen to Belinda's baby.

"Don't worry. The doctor just told me the same thing," Belinda said with a smile. Apparently, she was a happy mother and only a few things could upset her.

"Remember to take a walk every day. It'll be helpful to prepare the body for natural labor," Tom continued. As a doctor, he hoped every pregnant woman could take good care of herself and her baby. He had seen so many pregnant women crying and screaming in fear and in pain, which was really bad for themselves and their babies.

"Got it! I will do as you say. I'll take my leave now. Bye, Tom, bye, Patricia." Actually she had taken a walk every day since she found out that she was pregnant. It had been so boring staying home alone, so she could only take a walk around the house and have a breath of fresh air. There was a beautiful garden there.

"Wait, did you come here alone? Do you want me to drive you home?" Tom offered. He felt that he should remind Duke that it was very dangerous for a pregnant woman to drive, especially as it got closer to the expected date of delivery. Expectant mothers are not that quick to react during pregnancy.

"Oh, that's not necessary. The driver brought me here and he's now waiting for me outside," Belinda immediately responded. Duke had planned to drive her here at first, but then something urgent had come up in his company and he had to ask the driver to take her to the hospital.

"Oh, all right. You know that you should stop driving on your third trimester, that's three months before you deliver the baby," Tom said. It was only now that Patricia could see that he was a gentle, caring and sensitive man. A far cry from the cold and indifferent man that she used to know. However, although he didn't reject her like before, she still couldn't feel that they were a real couple. There was no passionate and sweet love between them.

"I know. Come on, Tom! Don't you trust your own doctors in your hospital?" Belinda said with a laugh. She really thought Tom acted like her mother who was always worried about her.

"Belinda, don't mind him. In front of his patients, he really talks a lot, as if trying to impress them all the time! You'll grow used to it." Patricia giggled. She thought she was the only one that had to listen to his babble, but it seemed that Belinda was another victim.

"Haha. To be honest, I'll never get used to it. So please do me a favor and get him away from me. I really need to leave now. See you guys." Belinda left immediately after saying that. She didn't dare walk too fast though, for she was afraid that she might slip and fall. She just waddled away to the waiting car. She could still hear Tom nagging behind her. "Walk slowly! Look out for that trash bin on the right! Hold on to that railing!"

"Come on, Tom! You shush! Otherwise Belinda will speed up," Patricia said. She found that Belinda was also a straightforward woman, and they shared the same character.

"I was just worried about her. Am I wrong?" Tom complained. He felt that he had aged a lot recently, as there were so many things he had to worry about.0000
