It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 1284 Asshole (Part Two)
."I was small-minded. Sorry that I misunderstood you." Leena felt embarrassed. She just reiterated that she didn't want Kevin to make apologies. However, she kept making apologies herself instead. "Never mind. You cared about me too much, so you were jealous," Kevin comforted Leena with a gentle smile. They would love each other more after this.
Misunderstandings were inevitable in life. As long as we were willing to spend some time explaining or listening, we wouldn't get hurt.
As soon as Leena got home, Shannon gave her a big hug. She was still worried about Leena last night and wondered when she would wake up. To her surprise, Leena had come home safe and sound.
"Thank goodness! You're back at last!" Shannon's voice was filled with emotion. She stared at Leena up and down with tears in her eyes. Originally, she wanted to cook something for Leena and bring it to hospital, but Kevin told her not to anymore, because they would be back soon. What a pleasant surprise!
"Mom, I'm sorry to have worried you." Leena didn't expect that her mother-in-law would come to see her from the capital city. She was moved when Kevin told her about it. Now, she was even more excited and grateful to see Shannon.
"Silly girl, don't make a big deal out of it. I'm no stranger! Go wash your hands so we can eat. I made congee with pork bones for you. You can't eat greasy food for now but I'll cook whatever you like after you fully recover," Shannon said as she patted Leena on the back. "Okay. Thank you, Mom," Leena answered in a soft voice. She looked around and found that the house remained the same and was as spotless as before.
"Welcome home, Leena," Claire said excitedly. She seemed to have completely changed after the accident.
"Thank you, Claire." Leena gave her a big hug. After Leena was snatched back from the jaws of death, she became more kind-hearted. She didn't even want to get back at Louisa at all.
Meanwhile in the hospital, Tom encountered Patricia again. He thought that whatever happened was predestined, and it was useless to think of running away.
"Mr. Qin, where on earth have you transferred Leena? I went to her ward just now, but I didn't see her." Patricia gave the esteemed doctor a challenging look. If she didn't ask the nurse, she wouldn't know that Tom was in charge of this hospital.
"Miss Bai, don't you know that you must be gentle and humble when you ask for help?" Tom's reply was full of annoyance. Patricia's nonsense yesterday galled him and he still hadn't recovered from it.
"Sorry. The word 'gentle' is not in my dictionary. Don't expect me to be gentle," Patricia answered back as she looked around the dean's office. It was just larger than the general doctor's office. There was nothing special about it. However, every inch of shelf space was crammed with books. She could tell that Tom was very fond of reading.
"Watch your mouth. You're being impolite." Tom glared at Patricia. She was young but rude.
"Humph. What a pedant. Cut the crap. Just tell me where Leena is," sneered Patricia, curling her lip.
"You're friends, right? Why don't you call her? If I didn't know any better, I'd say you're taking this opportunity to approach me." A contemptuous smile crossed Tom's face. He hated such women the most. He didn't expect Patricia to be like that.
"Come on. Seriously, you're being self-righteous. I admit that I took a fancy to you at the beginning because you were brilliant and promising, but unfortunately I don't like your chosen career, so you're in my bad books now." Patricia loathed arrogant men, and Tom was one of them. He was the last person she wanted to get stuck in an island with.
"My career? What kind of mind thinks that it's shameful to be a doctor? Don't come see one when you get sick!" Tom was enraged. He never thought it was humiliating to be a doctor. Instead he was proud to have taken the sacred mission to heal the wounded and rescue the dying.
"I didn't say that. I just don't like you. Since you don't intend to tell me where Leena is, I won't interfere with your work anymore. Goodbye, asshole. Hope I never have to see you again." Patricia was short-tempered. She didn't want to continue arguing with Tom as Tom didn't want to give her what she wanted. As he said, she would know where Leena was by just a call. It was a waste of time to talk to an asshole like Tom.
"Stop! Asshole? Who are you talking about? If I'm an asshole, then you're wanton!" Tom felt his hackles rise. Patricia pissed him off more than she should.
"Ha ha! I like that. I have never refuted that I'm not wanton." Patricia cocked an eyebrow in Tom's direction and laughed arrogantly. She didn't care what Tom thought. It had nothing to do with her anyway.
"I'm warning you; don't lead Leena astray." Tom tried hard to simmer down his anger. He realized that the tone of this girl's voice was designed to irritate him. He wouldn't let her have her way.
"Oh? Are you trying to keep me away from her? Tell you what, it's not working. Save your breath." Patricia rolled her eyes heavenward in disgust and stormed out of the office. She thought, 'I lead Leena astray? It's ridiculous. She's scheming at birth, but she plays innocent in front of them.'
Tom saw Patricia slam the door. She was hot-tempered and excitable, like a bottle of soda exploding. He just said that casually, but she contradicted him and vented her anger on the door.
Patricia took out her phone to call Leena after she went out. Leena answered it after a few rings.
"Hello, Patricia. What's up?" Leena said in a low voice as she crept out of the bedroom, trying not to wake Kevin who was sleeping soundly. He was probably too tired, so he wasn't awakened by the ringing.
"Oh, my God! You've come back to life! Are you actually real or just a ghost?" Patricia firmly patted her chest to calm down. She was really frightened by the voice at the other end of the line. Leena was lying in a dead faint when she went to visit her yesterday, but now she had come around and been out of the ward.
"What are you talking about? Of course I'm real! Have you ever seen ghosts in broad daylight?" Leena talked back in an irritated voice. She rolled her eyes although she knew that Patricia couldn't see her.
"Thank God! You finally woke up! Where are you? Kevin didn't call to tell me that you've changed rooms. I'm running about like a chicken with its head cut off in this hospital," Patricia said angrily. She was still enraged at Tom's arrogance.
"What? You're in the hospital? I've already gotten back home. Would you like to come over?" Leena stuck out her tongue. She knew Patricia must be angry.
"What? You're already home? It's a miracle then! You were just unconscious in bed yesterday, but you left the hospital and went home today. I can't believe it! Is it because of that doctor dickhead, Tom?" Patricia's anger rose further, mentioning his name. Why didn't Tom tell her that Leena had been discharged from the hospital? He just asked her to make a call. What a classic asshole!
"Err... You know it." Originally, Leena tried to hide Tom's identity, but she didn't think that everything had changed after she drowned.
"Know what? That you deliberately misled me? Or that Tom is just an asshole?" Patricia didn't know why she was in a bad mood after she learned that Tom was a doctor yesterday. How agonizing it was.
"What happened? What did Tom do to you? Why are you so angry?" Leena drew back her neck. She didn't know why the two were at odds. What happened while she was in a coma?!
