It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1168

"Tom?" Leena carefully opened the door a crack and popped her head in to look for Tom.

"Come in." Tom didn't think anything of it. He thought that Leena came by herself, so he just glanced at her casually and turned his gaze back to the case files again.

"Sorry to disturb you, Dr. Qin." Kevin followed Leena into the office and greeted Tom first.

"Hey! Kevin! Been awhile. Oh -- oh no! Is Leena okay?" Tom was surprised to see Kevin, but he was more worried about Leena. He probably took her here, and Kevin wasn't a frivolous man. It was likely that Leena was hurt.

"Yeah. Someone elbowed her in the back. I thought I'd bring her here and get it checked out." Kevin liked Tom. He was a lot nicer than Edward or Duke.

"What? Leena was attacked? What happened? Do Edward and Duke know?" Tom stood up from the chair when Kevin told him this. This was not the time to be careless. Leena was sick recently, so he had to take precautions.

"Don't tell them, Tom. They'll have a fit. It's annoying," Leena said anxiously. She didn't want to have them make a fuss over her, so she hoped he'd keep quiet.

"Come over here and lie down on the couch. Let me take a look." Tom stared at Leena angrily. There probably wasn't anything wrong. Otherwise, she wouldn't be this happy. The person who beat her was asking for trouble. If Duke knew, he'd track the guy down and chop off his hand. If Edward found out, who knew what might happen? Maybe he'd kill the thug.

"Go ahead and eat, Tom. No rush," Leena said with a smile, and put the takeout bag on the table.

"Naw. Let's get this over with. So, lie down, please." Tom was angry because Leena hadn't taken good care of herself. Yes, it might be the 21st century. But she would always be their little princess, and anything that happened to her was automatically deserving of treatment.

"You sound mad. You're scaring me." Leena pouted after she said this. She walked over to the couch and lay on it, like he asked.

"Close the door," said Tom, jerking his head in Kevin's direction. At his words, he reached for the remote and raised the indoor temperature several degrees higher. He couldn't have Leena catching cold, now.
