It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1197

Hearing Claire talk that way, Gerard's heart sank. There was nothing he could do to change the fact. All he could do was try and make the future brighter. He smiled bitterly about her enthusiasm. He could do nothing else, except shaking his head sadly.

"Claire, are you close to Gerard?" Belinda asked. She saw Gerard and Claire talking back and forth. They seemed to know each other.

"Not too close. We only met once. Why?" Claire smiled gently. She felt nervous in front of the gang. Edward, Duke, and the rest of them were so different from her friends. Everyone here acted in a decent and elegant way. They were comfortable around each other. They even teased each other. They were nothing like her friends. Those friends of hers could only bully other people and let their parents clean up their mess. Her friends were rude, to boot.

"Oh! I see! I thought you were old friends, considering the way you were carrying on." Belinda smiled as she looked at Claire and Gerard. Then she turned to Daisy and whispered in her ear.

"Slow down, Kevin! You know what too much spicy food does to you!" There was worry in Leena's tone. Lee told her about Kevin's issues with indigestion. Spicy food seemed to be the trigger.

"Don't worry, babe. I can take care of myself." Kevin comforted Leena, or at least tried to. He knew his limits well, and no one was more careful about his health than him.

"Leena's right. I would have forgotten about your indigestion problem if she didn't mention it. Kevin, you really should take care of yourself. No more tummy aches. And remember to take the pills with you. It's not good to forget them." After all, Daisy had worked with Kevin for several years. She knew about all his quirks, including his health issues. Sometimes, it was impossible to ignore.

"Oh, is it serious?" Tom looked at Kevin curiously. Kevin looked strong and ought to be healthy, at least as far as he was concerned. But, of course, he couldn't know everything.

'No, just a minor stomach ulcer. Nothing serious." Kevin replied casually. He had a devil-may-care attitude about it. But the truth was, he didn't know how serious it truly was. He didn't have regular checkups at a medical center. The ulcer might have gotten worse thanks to his unhealthy habits.

"Hey, stop by sometime. We could check it out. Pain is a sign that something is wrong." Tom wouldn't care so much about Kevin, but this was the man who was to spend his whole life together with Leena. Tom wanted Leena to have a healthy and long lived husband to take care of her. That was why he said this.

"Okay, I'll go if I have time. Thanks, doctor." Kevin knew it would be rude to refuse, so he said yes.
