It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1347

Being a doctor, Tom had already rescued more lives than anyone could imagine. However, he could easily tell that it was Patricia's case that made him feel worse among them all. Mixed emotions caused him nervous the whole time when he was operating her and he couldn't even tell why he was so nervous. All he knew was that he would never have the guts to face her or himself anymore if ever he failed.

"Dr. Qin, the patient's hemoglobin is going down." Tom's assistant looked at him with wondering eyes. It wasn't normal for the prestigious doctor to be this uneasy. Thus, he thought, 'This is weird. I have never seen Dr. Qin this anxious before. Why?'

"I know. Stem the bleeding immediately, and check the plasma supply." Tom was holding a scalpel in his blood-covered hand. It was winter now but he was sweating badly. The nurse who was standing next to Tom hadn't stopped wiping his sweat away. Everyone in the operating room knew that this surgery was important to him.

"Okay." The assistant immediately began to stem the bleeding. They always learned a lot every time when they did surgery with Tom.

More chaotic hours passed by. It was already passed ten hours when the light in the operating room finally went out and Tom came out.

"How was Patricia's operation? Did it work?" Leena stood up as soon as she saw Tom. She wanted to run to him but she couldn't since her legs went numb because she sat there for too long.

"I really cannot tell yet. It will be up to her if she will make it or not." Tom's face looked drained and tired. He hoped he could tell everyone that everything was fine but he couldn't. He was not even sure if she would survive.

"Thank you, Tom. I know you tried your best," said Concordia in a thankful tone. She knew that Tom was an excellent and kind doctor. He would not just give up on anyone he wanted to save.

"You're welcome, Mrs. Bai. I will do everything I could to save Patricia. We are friends, right? You should trust me." After saying that, Tom scanned everyone who was waiting outside the operating room. He then fixed his eyes on Leena and frowned.

"I will always remember what you did for her. Thank you, Tom," It was Concordia's sincere words that took his attention from Leena. The old woman had always been a kind and polite person. The situation they were in might be sad now but she just couldn't stop herself from expressing her gratitude.

"Auntie, don't worry. I believe Tom will save Patricia. She will be fine," said Leena with a forced smile. Although she was upset by Tom's vague answer, she still tried to comfort Concordia. She then turned to Tom and stared at him questioningly as she wanted to know more about Patricia's state.

"In addition to the minor wounds, Patricia is suffering a broken left leg, severe visceral damage, and severe head impact. She is in danger now," said Tom gravely with a frown.

"She'll be all right, won't she?" Scared, Leena's feet automatically took a few steps back. She almost fell down when her legs suddenly lost their strength. Luckily, Kevin got his arms around her just in time before she hit the ground.

"It's really hard to say. It depends on her own resistance." Helplessness was washing Tom. He didn't know how to answer their questions in a way that would make them feel better. He just couldn't lie.

"Then when can we see her?" Concordia asked anxiously. She rarely cared about Patricia but Patricia was still her daughter no matter what. It was unavoidable for her to feel as anxious as she was.

"Not now. I will let you know when Patricia is better." As much as possible, Tom was unwilling to rescue people he knew. It was because he just couldn't stop feeling miserable for them. Little did anyone know but he had been under a lot of pressure these days because he kept running into similar things.

"Tom, you have to save her. Please." Leena blinked her tears away and looked to Tom in the eyes. She was really hoping for a positive answer from him.

"I..." Tom was at loss for word. Leena's trusting gaze was making him feel extremely helpless. He didn't know what to say because Patricia's injuries were very serious.
