It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 796

Tom always got to work on time. It was as Edward had expected. Punctuality was Tom's strong suit. When Edward entered Tom's office without knocking, he was met by a pair of fierce eyes. But when Tom saw Edward, he instantly changed his expression to a smile. Tom didn't dare to offend Edward, as the CEO had a myriad of ways to get back at him. Edward was by no means a forgiving man.

"Good morning, Edward, Daisy. I guess you've seen Hero, huh?" It annoyed Tom to think of the two policemen standing outside Hero's ward. They'd seriously hurt the business and reputation of his hospital. Edward, however, forced Tom to treat Hero. If it hadn't been for Edward, Tom wouldn't have had anything to do with Hero.

"Yes, we have. Thanks, Tom," Daisy said with a smile of appreciation. Though Hero was not that important to her, she appreciated Tom very much for having saved the man she once considered a friend.

"Come on, Daisy. Don't be so formal. Edward and I are good buddies. No need for that," Tom said, stealing a glance at Edward. He was relieved to find that Edward wasn't looking at him.

"Since we are such good buddies, I believe you won't mind checking my wife's wounds." Edward smiled slyly. He had been waiting for what Tom would do to trap himself again. Tom always complained that Edward treated him like a slave. This time, Tom would have no excuse to complain.

"What? Daisy, you got hurt again? You must be joking, right?" Tom cried in astonishment. He finally realized why Edward neither scolded him nor shot cold eyes at him. It turned out that Edward wanted something from him. He always wanted something from him.

"Sorry to bug you, Tom. Recently, I've been off my game, like I'm weaker. I'm not as quick as I was. And that was why I got hurt a couple of times." Daisy smiled awkwardly. She told Edward there was no need for her to go to the hospital and she could simply apply some medicine on her wounds, but Edward ignored her opinion and took her here immediately.

"Come on! If you're out of shape, what does that make me? A lazy pig, that's what. I might die of embarrassment!" Hearing Daisy's explanation, Tom felt ashamed of himself and pretended to strike his head against the wall. Daisy was much stronger than most men, but she still thought so little of herself as to believe she needed more exercise. The woman was unbelievable!

"Before you die, treat her first! Let's stop wasting time," Edward demanded in a chilly voice as he cast a stern glance at Tom. Tom was getting to be more and more like Rain. He might have to stop him from hanging out with Rain so much.

"You really have no heart!" Tom pursed his lips grumbling. He walked up to Daisy and checked her wounds. He had to be in surgery soon, so he had to hurry up.

"I have no sympathy for you. Just check her carefully and cut the crap!" Edward let his eyes settle upon Tom, watching his every move. If Tom were not a doctor, Edward would not allow him to touch Daisy at all. But Edward had to admit that Tom knew his stuff.

"Holy moly! So many wounds! Did you meet up with thugs again?" Tom asked with a frown. Other women spent countless time and money in taking good care of their skin; Daisy, however, got hurt from time to time. She just wouldn't take care of herself. No wonder Edward got pissed off every time she got injured.

"She met mad dogs!" Edward's anger rose at the sight of Daisy's wounds. She would get hurt every time she went out to do something. So it was natural that he would worry about her whenever she wasn't with him.

"How's that possible? Edward, are you testing me? These are knife wounds and bruises. If she had been bitten by dogs, the wounds would be totally different." Hardly had Tom's words faded when Edward cast him a murderous glance. Tom trembled with fear, and he bumped Daisy's wounds carelessly. Daisy yelped in pain.

"Could you please be more careful? You're a doctor, not a murderer." Edward cast a warning glance at Tom. His heart broke when hearing Daisy's cry.

"It's all your fault, boss. Why did you glare at me like that? I got so scared that I bumped her wounds accidentally. Daisy, I'm so sorry. Does it hurt? I didn't do it on purpose." Embarrassed, Tom apologized to Daisy. He smiled, trying to defuse the situation. Edward was not only trying to test his medical knowledge, but also his mental endurance. It was so difficult for Tom to be Edward's friend and maintain their friendship.
