Chapter 1546 The Quickening (Part Two)
"Sure. We need to get together for tea soon." Belinda decided to learn more about labor from Daisy.
She was really scared of it. When did it start? What should she do? How much did it hurt?
"Okay. Have a safe drive." Daisy turned to Duke and urged him to drive slowly, as there was a pregnant
woman in his car. She was always thinking of others, but paid less attention to herself.
"Got it. Bye, Belinda." Duke nodded as he got in and left.
Daisy watched the car leave the car park. Then she turned and walked to the elevator. She was
stunned to see Leena sitting at Kevin's bedside. Nobody had told her Leena was back.
"Leena?" Daisy said hesitantly when she saw the woman clean Kevin's lips with a Q-tip.
"Daisy!" Leena didn't know why, but the moment she saw Daisy, she felt hurt and threw herself into her
arms.
"You're finally back. We missed you so much." Daisy patted Leena's back to comfort her. She knew
how sad Leena felt, so she was not willing to blame her for anything.
"I missed all of you, every day." Leena sniffed. Somehow she felt like Daisy was like her mother, and
that was why she was unable to hold back her tears when she saw her.
"Since you missed us so much, you should have come back earlier. We were so worried about you."
Daisy released her and took out a tissue to wipe her tears.
"I'm so sorry. I won't leave you guys again." Leena turned tears into smiles. She had her time alone,
and realized that she couldn't live without her friends and family.
"All right. How's Kevin? When will he wake up?" Daisy asked with a frown when she looked at Kevin's
unconscious form. She had gotten wind of Kevin's injury on the third day of her assignment to the
capital city. She came back home as soon as she finished her test.
"I don't know. Tom didn't say. But he did say Kevin was going to be okay." Leena cast a worried glance
at Kevin. She had spoken to him almost constantly since she got to him, but he hadn't moved so much
as a finger.
"Relax. Since Tom said Kevin's fine, he'll recover soon. So don't worry. Maybe now that you're back,
he'll start taking better care of himself." Daisy sighed with profound resignation. Love is so painful, and
her friends had all suffered because of it. Daisy turned Kevin down when he had confessed to her. But
Kevin hadn't acted like this. This meant that Kevin's feelings for Daisy were not real love. After having
witnessed Kevin become a train wreck, Daisy realized that Kevin only loved Leena.
"Daisy, do you think I'm selfish? I only focused on my feelings, and shut everyone else out." Leena bit
her lower lip and felt regretful. She felt that she was the one to blame for Kevin's injury.
"Don't blame yourself, Leena. I get it. If I were you, I'd be upset that I couldn't get pregnant. And you
would put yourself in Kevin's shoes and wonder whether he will hate you in the future when you can't
give him a kid. So you chose to leave before he found out the truth. Am I right?" Daisy held Leena's
hands and stared at her. She was also a sensible woman, so she could understand Leena's choice.
"You know me well." Leena was so excited that Daisy could totally understand her. What Daisy said
was exactly what Leena had been afraid of.
"It's not that hard to know who someone is. You just have to care for them, and pay more attention. You
are like my own sister, and I care about you." Daisy flashed a big grin. At the very beginning, she had
decided to learn more about Leena because Edward cared about Leena a lot and she wanted to know
why. The more time Daisy spent with Leena, the more she liked her. Leena had a very charming
personality that drew people in. She was so kindhearted and innocent that nobody was willing to hurt
her.
Leena was deeply moved by Daisy's words. She finally realized why Kevin used to have a thing for
Daisy, because Daisy was a remarkable woman.
After Daisy bid Leena goodbye and left the ward, Leena was left alone with Kevin. It was very quiet at
night, and she could only hear the beeping of the medical monitor.
"There are so many people who care about you. I'm even a little envious of you," Leena said to Kevin,
eyes full of affection.
"Kevin, should I cut my hair short? I'd like to try a new hair style." Leena talked to Kevin without
stopping. She just wanted to tell him everything, no matter whether he could hear or not. Tom told her
to do this anyway, and she was good at talking.
"Why don't you answer me? Tom said you're fine. Don't you want to be with me right now? What's that?
You don't want to see me? Hey, don't be so naughty." Leena stroked his handsome face softly, but he
didn't respond at all.
"You know what? I've been taking my meds. But I won't ask Tom for another exam. We failed last time,
and I don't think this time will be any different. But no matter what, I'll take the meds for us. They're
really bitter — you should try one. But I'll take them as long as they can help me get pregnant." Leena
forced a bitter smile, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"I realized that you got closer to my brothers and friends when I was gone. Turns out I'm the one you
guys fight over." Leena kept talking, but there was still no response. She finally got too tired to
continue. After giving Kevin a soft kiss on the lips, she fell asleep at the edge of the bed.
Kevin couldn't see a thing. No matter how hard he tried, everything around was pitch black. The voice
around him was so familiar that he was eager to see whether it was the woman he had missed so
much. But he just couldn't see her, and that drove him nuts.
He even felt her soft lips pressed on his, and they felt so real. But before long, the voice disappeared
and everything became quiet. It must have been a dream. After all, Leena left him without even saying
goodbye. No matter how much he missed her, she wasn't back — he had to face reality.
Eventually, he managed to open his eyes. There was a moment of blinding pain after seeing the light,
so he closed his eyes again, wishing the throbbing ache in his head to go away. Then he opened his
eyes again slowly.
Squinting against the light, he shielded his eyes with his hand. Looking around, he found himself in a
white room. It was so white that he thought he might be in heaven.
He looked away slowly as he was still very weak and unable to move his head as quickly as usual.
When he saw the familiar figure at his bedside, his eyes widened and his heart stopped. The medical
device even made an alarming beep at this moment.
Was it Leena? Did she really come back? It must be a dream! It must be illusion, because he missed
her so much. At the thought of it, Kevin forced a bitter smile and closed his eyes again to calm himself
down.
But her unique aroma lingered in his nostrils. And his hand was held by another pair of hands, soft and
warm. The feeling was so familiar, as she had held his hand countless times in the past.
Kevin moved his body in an attempt to attract her attention, but his whole body was aching and he had Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
to stop doing that. He then tried to call out her name.
"Nana," he croaked. His voice was low and husky, as he had been unconscious for a long time.
Leena had fallen into deep slumber and didn't hear Kevin's voice. However, she held his hand even
more tightly, as something told her he was awake.
Kevin was filled with joy, as Leena came back to him. He didn't dare to interrupt this peaceful moment,
but tried to turn his head to stare at his beloved wife. As she slept, her face was covered by her long
hair. He was unable to see the face that he had missed for such a long time. But as long as she was by
his side, he was already satisfied.
Feeling her warm hands, Kevin couldn't help but thank God in his heart that Leena came back to him
again. He came back to life, and couldn't be happier.
