It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 1295 Hi, Beauty! (Part One)
"For God's sake, shut up. Don't think I would forgive you so easily! You think making fun of me is funny, you brat?" Patricia hissed at Leena. It vexed Patricia to think of what Tom had said to her. 'Fine! I admit that I had a thing for him when I first saw him, but he is so mean.
Moreover, he is a doctor! I hate doctors! I can't be interested in him any longer!' Patricia thought.
"Come on, Patricia. I thought you fell for him at first sight. Why are you so mad at me?" Leena asked. She had a guilty conscience for she had concealed Tom's profession. She wondered why Patricia's feelings toward Tom had changed so dramatically. Patricia found out that Tom was a doctor, but she shouldn't be mad at her like this. Tom was a remarkable man.
"Stop talking nonsense! If I had known he was so arrogant and shameless, I wouldn't have shown interest in him even if he were the only man left in the world!" Patricia took a slug of her drink through her straw, as if she were sucking Tom's blood. A couple of days had passed since her last meeting with Tom, but she always lost her cool at the mention of him.
"You're acting so weird. Did something happen between you and him? Did he kiss you? Or..." Leena stared at Patricia with a goading smile.
"Leena Leng, enough of this mind-wandering! If you continue to talk nonsense, I swear I will sell you to a remote mountain area. I hear that bachelors there are pleased to buy a young and beautiful wife like you. You'll never be able to see Kevin again," Patricia said through gritted teeth. The resolution in her eyes revealed that she was not kidding. She would do exactly that if Leena continued to provoke her.
"You're an evil woman! I was just wondering about what happened between you and Tom. Why are you so mean to me?" Leena said, her eyes widening. 'What did Tom do to her? She seems to hate him so much!' she thought.
"You would do well to remember not to mention his name in front of me, otherwise we won't be friends anymore. If you don't believe me, give it a try!" Patricia made her statement firmly as she cast a provoking glance at Leena. Her face was as beautiful as a rose, although she was very angry.
"You're awful! Fine, I won't mention him in front of you from now on. I did this for you, okay? You ungrateful woman!" Leena too gulped down a mouthful of her drink. Kevin had resumed his office duties and was busy again. So Leena killed her time by seeing friends. "I've decided to take part in the car race that is taking place a month later," Patricia said after a long time of silence. She had a complicated expression on her face.
"What? I thought your parents forbade you from attending such games. Why are you still taking part in it?" Leena asked nervously. For an unaccountable reason, she was rather disturbed at Patricia's words.
"I had a deal with them. This is my last race. Whatever the result is, I will quit this circle once and for all." Patricia gnawed on her lower lip and gave Leena a bitter smile. 'This is it. I can't have my parents worrying about me all the time,' she thought.
"That sounds great. I don't care who wins the race. Your safety is the most important thing to me." Leena held Patricia's hands. She knew it was Patricia's dream to take part in the international racing competitions. Patricia would regret it for life if she didn't participate in this race.
"Ha! What are you talking about? You say that as if I would actually lose my life in the race. By the way, how are you feeling now? Are you fully recovered?" Patricia eyed Leena from head to toe, heaving a sigh of relief at the sight of her rosy cheeks.
"As you can see, I'm fit as a fiddle." Leena grinned and looked away, distracted. She couldn't help but frown when she caught a glimpse of the woman who had thrown herself into Kevin's arms a couple of days ago.
"Hey! Michelle, here!" Patricia called out and waved at the woman. Since their very first meeting, their friendship had blossomed because their personalities meshed perfectly. They were both outgoing and cheerful.
"You know her?" Leena asked in confusion. She had no idea how long Patricia and this woman had known each other. Patricia had never mentioned Michelle to her before now.
"Yes, I met her for the first time a couple of days ago. I'll tell you the story some other day." Patricia gave Leena a reassuring smile. Michelle was not a typical good girl like Leena, nor was Patricia. Because of it, Michelle and Patricia got along very well with each other. "Hey, Patricia. You're already here. And who's this beautiful lady? Hi, beauty! Nice to meet you. I'm Michelle." Michelle introduced herself to Leena as a wide grin spread on her face. She wore a baggy T-shirt and jeans. Her thick makeup said that she was an unruly person.
"Hi! Nice to meet you too. I'm Leena Leng. Please just call me Leena." Leena gave Michelle a friendly smile. She decided to forget what had happened between her and Kevin.
"Have a seat, please. Leena is very rich, but she is easy to get along with," Patricia said to Michelle. This was the reason why Patricia liked Leena so much. Another girl from a rich family would be as proud as a peacock, but Leena was different.
"Ah, is that the reason you always bully me?" Leena rolled her eyes at Patricia, pretending to be annoyed at her words. 'You just threatened me to sell me to a remote mountain area! What a terrible friend you are!' she thought.
"I didn't bully you, okay? I was just making fun of you," Patricia said and raised one of her eyebrows at Leena. Leena stared back at Patricia defiantly. All of a sudden, they burst into hearty laughter.
"I'm so envious of you having such a good friend," Michelle said to Patricia. Michelle felt a bit lonely. She had no female friends at all.
"Don't be upset! I believe the longer we are together, the closer we would be." Patricia patted Michelle's shoulder and consoled her. Patricia too only had a handful of female friends and could only open her heart to Leena.
"Really? As long as you don't mind that I'm a gang member, I won't hesitate to go through fire and water for you," Michelle said earnestly. Michelle was influenced by other male gang members and was straightforward in expressing her feelings.
"Don't worry. A humble family does not determine a humble future. We won't look down on you," Patricia assured Michelle. Kevin had mentioned Michelle's family background to Leena before, so she was calm when she heard Michelle admit her family background. She believed that a blunt person like Michelle could never be a home breaker. She suddenly recalled how naive she had been before, when she saw Michelle hugging Kevin. Leena blushed scarlet with embarrassment.
"Thank God! Here's to both of you, Patricia and Leena. I hope we will be best friends in the future." Michelle raised her drink and clinked glasses with them.
Three women of different family backgrounds and different personalities started their friendship from this moment onward. After several decades, when they recalled this day, they couldn't help but marvel at the incredible fate.
In the evening, Leena sat at the dining table and waited for her husband. Her feelings now were not what they used to be. Since they had confessed their love for each other, she was not as suspicious as she used to be before. Belinda had been suffering from morning sickness increasingly, but Leena was not pregnant yet. She became more and more anxious. She was too shy to see a doctor about this.000000
