It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1266

"Hey. Why don't you catch some zzz's? I can stay here, and make sure she's okay," Tom suggested, when he walked out of the ward and saw Kevin's tired face.

"Naw. I'm good.. How's Leena? Is she alright?" Kevin asked eagerly. He was still deeply concerned, and that eclipsed his need for sleep. Leena's condition was what worried him most.

"Currently, her vital signs are normal. I'd like to keep her under observation for a few hours. If she stays stable, we can transfer her to a normal bed." Tom felt delighted to tell Kevin this. More importantly, he could see clearly that Leena had the will to survive now. That was some serious progress. He wanted to see everything be okay again, which was why he became a doctor in the first place.

"Really? Great. It's all thanks to you." Kevin got very excited when he heard Tom's words. He really wanted to hold Tom's hands to show his thanks. But he gave up when he found that he had that cup of coffee in his hand. Even so, he couldn't help feeling overjoyed. He hadn't felt like this in awhile.

"Hey, no need to thank me, thank yourself. You lit that spark in her. She improved as soon as you started talking to her. Whatever you said did the trick. " Tom didn't really want to know what Kevin said to Leena. In his eyes, as long as it worked, the process was not that important.

"I didn't help that much. You're the hero who saved the day." Kevin smiled. The past several hours were torturing to him. So he would keep this lesson in his mind and never let any situation deteriorate again.

"You're too kind. No matter what, Leena's my sister. So don't worry about it. And don't pay any attention to Edward and the gang. They said what they said because they were worried about Leena," Tom said after he sat down beside Kevin. The white gown he wore made him look all the more gentle. Maybe he wasn't as drop-dead gorgeous as Edward, Duke, and all them. But he was the nicest out of all of them.

"I know, it already rolled off my back." Kevin knew they were good to Leena, so he never paid much attention. Besides, he knew who he was, and didn't care what they thought.

"I'm glad you get it. But keep in mind that I'm a good guy doesn't mean I don't have issues with you. I'm just more rational than them, because I'm a doctor. My duty is to heal the wounded and save the dying, and there's nothing personal. We're a lot alike, soldier boy. We both serve the people." Tom narrowed his eyes and glanced at him. Truthfully, the more time he spent with Kevin, the more he felt that the man was a pretty good guy overall. That might be why Leena married him.

"Someday, you guys will trust me that I can take good care of Leena. We'll probably end up in an old folk's home by then, but at least you'll trust me." Kevin said firmly. He thought about it for awhile -- he had a long time to do nothing but think. And he finally figured out how he could be a good husband to Leena. He couldn't follow her around all day, but he could love her wholeheartedly. His love was the only thing he could offer, because she was so rich and lacked for nothing. except his love. He aimed to change that.

The international airport of the city was as grand and spectacular as it ever was. Although there was still some time before dawn, the place was as busy as it was in the day. The people who had to run around for a living filled the place, running helter skelter, going about their daily tasks, checking flight info, etc. Duke embraced the first morning ray in the city as he arrived.
