It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 1330 Treat Others As You Want To Be Treated (Part Two)
"Okay. I'll be there in twenty minutes." Tom hung up and drove up to Leng Group.
Duke frowned. 'He doesn't come to me very often. It must be something important.' At this thought, Duke became uneasier.
Although Tom seldom came to Leng Group, the security guards knew that he was a good friend of Duke's. They did not stop him. Tom made it to Duke's office without any trouble. "You are punctual." As soon as Duke saw him, he looked at the time instinctively. Businessmen like him were very sensitive to time. Every minute was money for someone rich like him.
"You bet! You think I have no sense of time like Edward?" Tom smirked. He wondered how Edward would react to this description of him.
"Go ahead. What do you want from me?" Duke had planned to go to YS Group but changed his schedule temporarily because of Tom.
"What? You don't want me to come to you?" Tom raised his eyebrows and surveyed his office wantonly. Unlike Tom's office, Duke's office was very lavish.
"Just tell me. Don't be glib like Rain." Although Tom was a good friend of his, Duke was still as cold as ever. He did not change his tone.
"Huh! You have no sense of humor," Tom complained. The more anxious Duke became, the less Tom wanted to talk to him. Tom, like a child, enjoyed keeping others in suspense. "You think I am free like you? I don't have time to discuss my sense of humor with you." Duke glared at him. 'Rain has had an impact on this guy. How could he speak to me like that?' "Who told you I am free? I'm very busy. I wouldn't have come to you if it wasn't for Leena," Tom said and sat on the sofa. He knew that Duke was interested in everything about Leena. "Leena? What happened to her?" Just as Tom thought, Duke was particularly interested in Leena.
"Alas! There is something wrong with her health. I don't know how to tell her. You're her brother. Perhaps it would be better if you tell her." Tom pressed his lips together and looked at him questioningly.
"Damn it. Can you just say what it is?" Duke asked urgently. 'Since when does Tom speak in such a roundabout way?' he thought.
"Would you be patient? You keep interrupting me just when I'm about to say it," Tom complained. 'You are the one who keeps on interrupting me. Why are you blaming me?' he thought.
"Then spit it out! Why don't you finish your words? Do you want me to worry?" Duke wanted to pry Tom's brain to see what was inside.
"Okay. Leena may be infertile. Do you hear me?" Tom shouted. He too felt helpless about this situation.
"What did you just say? Infertile? How is that even possible?" Duke stared at him as if he had heard an incredible joke.
"I'm working on it. I gave her medicine. The girl hates Chinese medicine, so I turned it all into pills. If I could, I would convince her to take some syrup. It would be better for her." Tom frowned. He looked at Duke with an expectant look on his face, hoping that as her brother, Duke could convince Leena to take them.
"Would it work?" Duke asked in dismay. He always thought that he would take care of Leena and make sure she was happy. However, he had been wrong. She still suffered a lot of harm.
"I'm not sure, but I think it would be helpful for her to take some medicines. If we don't try, there is no hope," Tom said seriously. As a doctor, he felt particularly upset when he encountered an illness that he could not solve.
"Have you told her about it?" Duke thumped the table hard. It didn't matter to him if she could get pregnant or not, but he didn't know what Leena thought about this. For women, being unable to have children was completely different from not wanting them. At this thought, Duke was filled with worry.
"No. I don't know how to tell her, so I wanted to discuss with you first. I don't want her to feel sad." Tom clasped his fingers together and looked down at his toes. It seemed he really didn't know how to tell Leena.
"She's in Paris right now. Let's try again. Perhaps we could ask Edward and see if he has any good suggestions." Duke felt dejected. He didn't understand why a nice girl like Leena had to go through something she could not bear at this age.
"I think that's all we can do. Should we let Kevin know?" Tom glanced at Duke, doubtfully.
"Don't tell him. Let's figure it out by ourselves first." Duke was worried that Kevin would dislike Leena because of her infertility, so Duke didn't want to tell him. Although he disliked Kevin, he knew that Kevin had his merits. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many girls chasing after him.
"Okay, I'd better leave you to attend to your business. I have to go now. I will be out of town to attend an academic exchange meeting tomorrow. I have to go home and get the papers ready." As soon as Tom finished speaking, he stood up. He had a lot of things to do recently, so he felt tired.
"Wouldn't you like to dine with me?" Duke asked as he glanced at his wristwatch. As a matter of fact, they hadn't seen each other for a long time. Everyone was busy, so there had been no time to party.
"Next time. I am leaving." Tom raised his hand and waved before quickly walking away. He finally said what he wanted to say, so he didn't have to face this problem alone.
Duke leaned against a chair and rubbed at his temples. He closed his eyes and fell into deep contemplation. Leena had no idea what was occurring behind her back and was enjoying her vacation on the bank of the Seine in Paris. She had been very busy these days. Today, she finally had time to rest, so she felt relaxed.
"Leena, do you want me to take your picture and send it to Kevin?" Claire, who had just arrived in Paris, quickly adapted to the beautiful city. Paris had one of the best cultures so she was particularly happy.
"Haha! No need. We already know each other very well." Leena shook her head, rejecting Claire's suggestion. 'I'll be home in a few days anyway. I can come back here when the press conference is held, 'Leena thought.
"Okay. Let's go! Let's see what's ahead." Claire pulled Leena forward in excitement. She finally had the chance to come outside, so she wanted to have a good time. After all, when she returned home, there would be no one to hang out with her.
"Claire, wait for me." Leena couldn't keep up with her pace. She did not know why Claire had so much energy. Claire was still not tired after walking around for so long.
"I'm sorry. I was too excited." Claire slowed down. She had not completely changed her unruly personality, but she had become more polite than before.
"It's okay. How is Gerard these days? I've been in Paris for so long but haven't seen him yet," Leena asked her casually. No matter what, she and Gerard were still friends.
"He is trying to learn how to look after his company's business. He told me he wanted to invite you to dinner, but he didn't have time to do so because he had a business deal. I only see him at work," Claire replied carelessly, pursing her lips. Her eyes were drawn to a sand painting made by a young man nearby.
