It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1737

"Pretty soon. Oh, right," Annie said, a bit embarrassed. "Tom told me it'll only be a few more days. Don't worry!" Wearing the bandage to work had been rather inconvenient. Due to her hand being temporarily out of commission, there were also instances where doing day to day activities felt rather tedious.

"That will be great. I was worried that you would have to wear the bandage on your wedding day," Belinda said, heaving a sigh of relief. "Since it's Tom taking care of your wound, I feel more at ease." Glancing at the bandage, she offered a warm smile. Annie shouldn't have to suffer the same pain as she did - the pain of struggling to put on her wedding dress.

"It's actually not as serious as it looks," assured Annie softly, fiddling with her long hair. "I just need to take some medicine, and I'll be fine. But Tom - well, you know how serious he can be. He insisted that I wear the bandage like this." Since one of her hands was injured, she often had a hard time tying up her hair. And as much as she wanted to pull it up in a neat ponytail, she had no choice but to leave it hanging down her back nowadays.

"I guess he thought that since your wedding was coming soon, he should help you recover as quickly as possible," Belinda said, laughing cheerfully. As a former patient of Tom's professional services, she wasn't new to his dedicated spirit. So Belinda fully understood what Annie had to deal with.

"Yeah, maybe!" agreed Annie. Noticing the time, she prepared to leave in haste. "Belinda, I'm so sorry but I need to get back to my work now. I'll see you later!" The shooting wasn't finished yet, and she had to be back before they ever noticed she was gone. Besides, if she stayed longer, Eleanor might decide to create more trouble for her.

"Okay!" said Belinda immediately. "You get back to your work. But I'll see you at lunch!" These past few days at work had been rather dull since she had been having lunch alone, and she had gotten tired of the routine. Hopefully, Annie could accompany her later.

"All right," Annie said earnestly, "It'll be my treat." Considering Belinda had always been helping her out of trouble, the least Annie could do was to buy her lunch to show her gratitude.

Smiling, she responded, "I'll gladly accept that," Lunch wouldn't cost a lot, so Belinda agreed to let Annie pay without hesitation. Had it been a different case, she might've refused a bit more adamantly.

"See you at lunch," Annie said hastily, and then began walking away at full speed. If she wanted to keep her promise, she had to finish her job as soon as she could. Worst case scenario was that she'd be pulled back to work on unforeseen circumstances, and it would be embarrassing to bail after making plans with Belinda.

Shrugging, Belinda returned to her own work as well.

Having been busy with the affairs of CY Technology recently, Rain barely had time for food or sleep. Even the wedding affairs couldn't fit into his schedule, and as a result, he hired wedding coordinators to deal with it. So when Leena dropped by to see him, he was utterly surprised.

At a coffee house near CY Technology, Rain and Leena were having a conversation. "Rain," chided Leena, upon seeing him. "You really shouldn't overwork yourself! Look at you," she frowned," You've lost so much weight in such a short time." Pouting her lips, she continued to fuss over Rain out of deep concern. It seemed that he had been putting in a lot of effort on managing CY Technology at the expense of his well-being.

"Losing weight works for me. At least I won't need to exercise anymore," Rain joked with her. Speaking of exercise, he hadn't stepped foot in the gym for a long time. It was one of the many things he had sacrificed for work.
