My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

Chapter 1349 Death Was No Laughing Matter (Part Two)

"Yeah, of course she deserves it." Tom smiled. But suddenly, his smile turned to a frown, remembering that Leena would have a lot of difficulty getting pregnant. He glanced at Kevin with worried eyes. Till now, Kevin had no idea about it. But what would he think once he knew? Would he still be this good to Leena? Would he treat Leena the same way he was doing now or would he change his mind? Tom knew that it was impossible for a man to completely ignore it. Maybe Kevin wouldn't mind it for now. But what if, in the future he wanted a child and Leena couldn't get pregnant? Who could guarantee that his feelings for Leena wouldn't change?

"How is Patricia doing right now?" Kevin asked Tom in a more serious tone. Since his wife had spent the whole night worrying about Patricia, he couldn't help but get anxious as well.

"If I tell you that her condition is not promising, what would you think?" Tom felt helpless. Yes, he was a damn good doctor, if he said so himself. But he also just was human and sometimes, things were just out of his control. It was not up to him which patient got to live and which patient would die.

"It doesn't matter what I think. What matters is what you are going to do about it." Kevin's heart dropped. If Tom, a great doctor, said that Patricia's condition was not promising, then it was surely not promising at all. Did this mean that Patricia would not survive this ordeal?

"I am a doctor. I am not God." Tom rolled his eyes at Kevin. He felt pressured. No matter how good he was in his field, if it was someone's time to go, it was time to go. He really wanted Patricia to get better. But it was not up to him.

"So there is nothing you can do? Really?" Though Patricia was not family, Kevin still cared about her as a friend. Besides, he did not know how he was going to tell his wife.

"At least not for now. Do you think that I would still be here if I already figured out how to save her?" Even if Patricia wasn't Leena's best friend, he would still do everything he could so that she would live.

"So, a

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

want to see me work my ass off and exhaust myself to death? Do you like me going to the army base on a weekend?" Kevin said in a casual tone and then winked. But when he saw that Leena's face suddenly become pale with what he just said. He immediately realized that he had used the wrong words.

"Were you kidding just now? Because it wasn't funny at all! I don't want to hear you talk like that again! You know how much you mean to me! Why are you trying to twist my words?" Leena was particularly sensitive these days. She didn't like Kevin talking about his own death, even if it was just a joke. In times like this, death was no laughing matter.

"Okay Nana, I am so sorry! I didn't mean to upset you. It was just a silly joke. Please don't take it seriously. I'm really sorry." Kevin had gotten used to her throwing tantrums, but he didn't know that she could get this sensitive. He didn't expect that his silly joke would upset Leena like this. Leena loved him so much that she couldn't even tolerate this kind of joke. She just couldn't stand the thought of losing him.

"But I have already taken it seriously." Leena furrowed her eyebrows. Then all of a sudden, she had a feeling that she had forgotten about something very important. But she just couldn't tell what it was. She felt lost, like a very important part of her memory had faded into nothingness.
