It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1359

"She's probably worried about her friend, Patricia. Haven't you heard? That Patricia has been lying unconscious in bed for nearly a month now. And there is no sign when she would wake up. As her best friend, how could she not feel worried?" Belinda could understand why Leena looked stressed out and even a bit moody. If that was Daisy in a coma for almost a month, she would also feel gloomy like Leena. She couldn't even imagine how she would handle it.

"What has Tom done? He's her doctor right? Can't he save her?" Duke wondered. It was strange. Didn't Tom declare himself as a miracle-working doctor? Why couldn't he revive an unconscious patient?

"No one is almighty, not even Tom. Patricia was badly injured. He already has done a good job keeping her alive." Belinda got this information not long ago from Leena. She had dropped by Patricia's ward once, when she went to the hospital to do the prenatal check up. The woman lying on the bed was pretty, but her face had become too pale, probably because she had been bedridden for too long. As Belinda looked at her, she took pity on such a beautiful girl.

"Well, Let's go then. It's useless for us to get too worried. Only the doctor could help her now. We can do nothing about it." In Duke's heart, except for the people he cared about, nothing or no one else could afford him the slightest interest.

"I'm curious. How long has it been since the last time you and Tom and your other buddies got together?" Belinda asked as they walked towards their car, with Duke assisting her, holding her by her arm. She found that Tom had been in low spirits recently and didn't know why. So she thought she needed to remind Duke of this.

"It has been a while. What's wrong with that? We all have our own lives to live." Duke pulled the door open for her, feeling very strange why she would suddenly ask something like that.

"Nothing, it just crossed my mind." Belinda smiled. She was probably just thinking too much.

"No, you must have something to tell me. Otherwise you wouldn't have asked. Is there something wrong? Did you see or hear anything at the hospital when you went on that check up?" Duke gazed firmly into her eyes, forcing her to face him straight. His instinct told him that Belinda was hiding something from him.

"Nothing, really. I just noticed that Tom looked more haggard recently. So I wonder if anything has happened to him. As his best friend, I thought you'd already know. Don't you think you should go and check if everything with him is okay?" Cornered by Duke, Belinda had no choice but to tell him what she observed in the hospital.
