It'll Come Naturally
Chapter 1427 Long Time No See (Part Three)

When she arrived at the hospital, Patricia was sitting beside the window, staring outside. She seemed to be simply spacing out. Leena called her several times but she didn't even hear her. She was transfixed.

"Patricia, what are you looking at? Is there a handsome guy outside? You didn't even hear me," Leena teased her as she looked outside the window herself to see what had caught Patricia's attention.

"Yeah. How did you know? There was indeed a very handsome guy just now. However, you are unlucky, he just left. Why are you here? I thought you were busy preparing for the fashion week? By the way, I think your job is really tiring. You just finished the summer fashion show and now you have to work on the next fashion week. I feel tired just hearing the work you have to do." Though Patricia just graduated from university, she didn't seem to be worried about her job at all. After all, she would take over her mother's gallery one day for sure. That was not a very tiring job and she was happy about it.

"What can I do? Working in the fashion industry is tiring. If I don't have my newest designs come out, I will be replaced by some younger and talented designer soon. There are hawks watching your every move closely in this cruel industry. It is just what it is." Leena let out a silent sigh. She didn't choose to be a fashion designer because of the money. She chose it because she really loved it.

"Yeah, you are right. It's a shame that I can't help you with it. However, I am here for moral support." Patricia looked at Leena with apologetic eyes. As her best friend, she surely knew how tiring Leena's job was. She admired her for choosing it. Leena could have chosen a much easier job as she was already financially stable but she didn't. It was something that Patricia would never have the courage to do.

"Thank you. Well, how is your leg? How long till you can get out of the hospital?" Leena looked at Patricia's legs and asked. Her best friend had been here for quite a long time by now. She could leave here soon, right?

"It's much better now. I can even walk a few steps by myself. I believe I can walk normally in no time." Patricia was really excited that she was healing so well. She could finally leave the hospital soon! However, just the thought that she wouldn't be seeing Tom every day once she was out of here got her sad and disappointed all of a sudden.

"Really? That's great news! Besides, I won't have to come here so frequently." Leena jumped excitedly upon hearing Patricia's words. And it made Patricia roll her eyes at her behavior. All she worried about was that she wouldn't have to come to the hospital, really? What a good friend she was!

"Why didn't you bring me any food today? It's unlike you." Patricia suddenly noticed that Leena didn't bring anything with her. That was strange. She would always bring some foods for her whenever she came. She couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed that Leena didn't bring her any food this time.

"I thought you didn't like them? So I got too lazy to prepare food for you." Leena felt a bit guilty because this was not the real reason. Last night, Kevin made her so tired that she couldn't get up early today. That was why she didn't have the time to prepare food for Patricia. "I can tell from your eyes that you are not telling me the truth. Besides, I can see the hickeys on your neck. You didn't hide them very well. You guys amaze me!. You and Kevin have been married for a long time by now but you two are still going at it like teenagers." Patricia tilted her head and looked at Leena's neck. The hickeys were still showing even though Leena had put some concealer on them. Being the smart girl she was, she could see right through Leena.

"I don't know what you are talking about," said Leena while pulling her collar a bit higher. Her dodging eyes and unnatural behavior spoke for her.

"No need to hide them anymore. I have already seen them. I can tell that Kevin was really passionate. Wasn't he afraid of breaking you if he was that rough?" Clearly, Patricia was enjoying this too much as she rarely got the chance to tease Leena like this. She just had to seize this chance.

"Enough! Shut up, will you? I am going to ask Tom to teach you a lesson." Leena had a beautiful blush on her face. She glared at Patricia without real malice. However, Patricia didn't seem to be afraid of her warning. She knew her best friend. Leena was a big softie, so she wouldn't mind.

"All right, all right. I won't joke about it anymore. By the way, your sister-in-law came earlier. She was here for a check-up on the baby and she dropped by." Patricia stopped her teasing in case Leena really got angry. She knew that Leena was shy about topics like that, so she just didn't have the heart to tease her anymore. She could already see Leena's face burning. She decided to let it go easily this time.

"Oh! What did she say? Is the baby healthy?" Leena was a bit frustrated. Had she known that Belinda would be here, she would have come here earlier to see her.

"Don't worry. The baby is healthy and everything else is also fine. Just wait to be an aunt! Talking about this, when are you going to be a mother? Are you on birth control? With Kevin being so eager, you should have already been pregnant by now." Patricia put her eyes firmly on Leena's stomach. Was Leena already pregnant and just didn't tell others?00000000000000
