It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1376

"Oh my god! What happened to your face?" The moment Kevin went into the house, Leena immediately saw the injury on his face. This rarely happened to him, maybe never, and was something that she wasn't used to. She dropped whatever she was doing and walked to him immediately.

"I hurt myself during training. Don't worry, it was my fault. Nothing serious." Earlier, Kevin did not know what to tell her because he did not want her to worry one bit. He thought of tons of excuses to avoid her question and he picked out the most convincing one.

"Really? Because it looks like you were hit by someone!" Leena did not believe him right away. She felt sorry for him and reached out to touch the wound but decided not to, because she was afraid that she might hurt him more.

"Yes, really! I did not focus well during one of our practice fights so one of the recruits did a nice upper cut and got through to me. Don't worry. It'll be fine in a few days." Kevin grinned but was quickly jolted and grimaced in pain a bit when the part of the wound on his face was stretched because of the smile.

"I'll go and boil some eggs! You can roll them on the wound to ease the pain," Leena said and walked to the kitchen before Kevin could protest. She didn't like seeing her husband injured like that.

Kevin did not try to stop her. He was actually relieved. At least she didn't look closer to examine the wound, which had started to darken around the edges. She could do whatever she wanted, after all. What was more, the injury on the face would heal more quickly with her suggestion and there was no reason for him to refuse it.

For most people, hospitals were typically terrible and they would avoid them as much as possible. They were mostly dark and gloomy, with a lot of worry, sadness and suffering in the air. Death was also inevitable in hospitals. But it was different for Tom. He liked hospitals a lot. He liked the feeling of accomplishment whenever he got to save someone's life and again when the patient was fully recovered. Recently, however, he was beyond frustrated not being able to make Patricia remember him. He had tried different methods and various approaches. He even contacted some of his colleagues in Europe for advice but none of them could be of help.

"Miss Bai, the nurse will help you remove the plaster cast later. After that, you need to undergo a series of rehabilitation exercises and therapy to help you fully recover. So please prepare yourself for that," Tom had started to get used to communicating with her in a professional and distant tone. Although it felt like his heart was going to burst, he did not show it. He chose to close the door to his heart and did not want to admit that he had begun to have feelings for her. Maybe he could still turn this around and go back to how he used to be.

"Doctor, Leena and Michelle are just pulling my leg, right?" Patricia asked, head tilting with her innocent and bright eyes staring at him.

"What did they say?" Tom was vexed as could be seen from his knitted eyebrows.
