"Oh, all right. I''m listening," Tom said while standing up. The gentle person had be indifferent and cold. Leena couldn''t understand why love always wore people out.


    "Um... the scars on Patricia''s face... I mean, what are you gonna do with them?" asked Leena after a short hesitation. Tom had been really weird recently. She was afraid that she might piss him off easily by mentioning Patricia before him.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    "Did she send you here to ask about it?" Tom replied with a mocking smile. He was having a hard time epting the truth though he knew that Patricia forgot about him because of her serious injuries. It was Patricia who had intruded into his life and told him that she had a thing for him. Sadly though, it was also her who took the unteral decision of pulling out of the love game just in time he fell in love with her.


    "No! Don''t get me wrong. She is okay with the scars. It''s just that I''m worried about her. You know, women all care for their faces." Leena scrunched her nose. She was at the verge of tears as she wasn''t used to seeing Tom torture himself like this. However, she also understood that things were happening with reasons. If only Tom hadn''t kept rejecting Patricia before, then the two might have been happily together by now.


    "Since she''s okay with the scars, why are you so worried about her?" Tom''s voice sounded grating on Leena''s ears that it stunned her for a while. He honestly didn''t know what was wrong with himself too. Leena was his beloved sworn sister and he shouldn''t talk to her in such a rude manner. It was just that he couldn''t help but lose his temper whenever he heard of Patricia.


    "Tom, are you okay? You''ve been acting really weird recently," Leena asked in a worried tone. Tom had never med her regardless of her mistakes in the past. Thus, she felt wronged.


    He had never been this impatient while talking with her.


    "I''m really sorry, Leena. I didn''t sleep wellst night and that''s why I''m really tired now. Please don''t get angry at me," apologized Tom upon realizing what he just said.


    "Was it because of Patricia?" It was then that Leena decided to make it clear with Tom. She didn''t want him to be full of remorse like Rain.


    "Leena, I really don''t want to talk about it right now. I want some space, okay?" Tom turned his back to Leena as he didn''t want her to notice his sorrow.


    "Running away from reality doesn''t help solve any problem. You have to face it. If you have a thing for her, you can court her to make her fall in love with you again. However, if you don''t love her, isn''t it best for you to ask for her forgiveness at least?" Leena said as she stepped closer to Tom. She had to figure out a way to cheer Tom up. He had been really depressed recently and she couldn''t bear to see him like this any longer.


    "I don''t think that she''ll fall in love with me again. She has forgotten me after she woke up. It only means that she has subconsciously decided to move on." Tom''s voice shook a little because of his uncontrolled emotions.


    "You won''t know the result until you have tried your best. Tom, you are my family and Patricia is my best friend. I really hate to see both of you suffer in this love game," Leena said sincerely. Though she was unable to see his face now, she could tell that his heart was terribly broken.


    "Leena, don''t worry about us. Since you''re back, why don''t you continue to take the herbal medicines? I''ll go fetch the medicines for you soon," said Tom as he wasn''t in the mood to talk with Leena about Patricia anymore.


    "Tom, may I know why I have to take these medicines?" Though she already knew the answer, she just refused to believe it. She was hoping that she had just misheard him, thus, she decided to confirm it with Tom. "You''ve always been in poor health. The medicines are to improve your condition," answered Tom as he turned to Leena and looked her in the eye. He wanted to convince her that there wasn''t anything wrong.


    "How long are you gonna keep lying to me?" said Leena in a low voice. A bitter smile cracked her lips the same time her tears began to fall. She was still young and in no hurry to have a baby. However, she knew that Kevin was desperate to have one. Kevin had mentioned it to her once and she had kept that in mind.


    "You... You knew it?" Flustered, Tom suddenly hesitated to talk. It had never urred to him that Leena already knew about her case.


    "How I wish I didn''t know about it." If she hadn''t known about it, she would be now hoping to get pregnant and give birth to a cute boy or girl for Kevin. However, it seemed so impossible now.


    "It''s okay, Leena. You must trust me. You will have babies soon, okay?" Tom hugged her in his arms. He had nned to find the right time to tell her but she had already known about it.


    "Okay, Tom. I will give my full cooperation. No matter how much I hate taking herbal medicines, I will do as you say," Leena promised. She wanted to sh a smile but failed.


    "I''m d you said that. By the way, does Kevin know it too?" Instead of asking Leena how did she find it out, Tom wanted to know Kevin''s attitude towards the problem. If Kevin minded the matter very much, Tom had to figure out a way with his fellows.


    "No, he doesn''t. Tom, please don''t tell him, okay? Letting him know won''t help. I don''t want him to worry about me." Leena managed to smile this time. Just the mere thought of Kevin lightened her mood. Though he was now in the capital city, his name alone was enough to cheer her up.


    "Why are you always so humble in front of him? What will happen to you if you cannot handle the pressure anymore?" Not many knew but Tom envied Kevin a lot. How lucky Kevin was to have such a good wife like Leena. She had changed immeasurably and without anyin, devoted herself to him.


    "I don''t worry about it. I''ll just let nature take its course." Naturally, Leena also wanted to be a spoiled woman who was cherished by her husband. It was just that it was clear to her that she loved Kevin more than he loved her. Thus, she had to be a considerate wife instead and danced to whatever tune he wanted.


    After taking the medicines and bidding goodbye to Tom, Leena drove back home and was weed by an empty house. She was unable to stand it as Kevin''s figure kept shing across her mind. Therefore, she took her suitcase out again and packed several clothes. Less than an hour after that, she was already driving to the airport.


    Upon arriving at the airport, she booked the earliest flight to the capital city which was two hourster. It was not until now that she realized how impulsive she had been toe here without checking the flight schedule. She could just guess how tough the two hours waiting time would be for her.


    To kill time, she went to the coffee shop at the airport and ordered a cappino. She looked around to observe people''s clothes in an attempt to get new inspirations. She had a pretty face and her long ck hair framed her distinct beauty perfectly. Thus, her presence attracted the attention of many passersby.


    She was still observing when a familiar built suddenly caught her attention. To her intense surprise, she saw Dorothy! The same woman who had been in the newspaper with Kevin not long ago. Though Dorothy''s sunsses were big enough to cover half her face, Leena still recognized her. Dorothy was sitting on a nearby table. She didn''t wear any makeup and looked like a girl next door. That was why nobody recognized her except for Leena.


    On the other hand, Dorothy let out a friendly smile upon seeing Leena. Then she lowered her head to read her magazine. She was really graceful and elegant.


    Leena curled her lips, stopped looking around, and enjoyed her coffee.00000
