CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 121

Nina glanced back at her, noticing the smile on her lips and the look of admiration in her eyes. She recognized that look—admiration, a desire to understand everything about him. She, too, wanted to be the one who understood him the most.

"I know him a little," Nina said casually. "So, what exactly do you want to know from me about him?"

Linda didn't hide anything, confessing to her openly, "I want to know everything. The more I understand him, the less likely I'll upset him."

Nina asked again, "So, you think if you understand him well, don't upset him, and make him satisfied with everything, he'll like you more?"

Linda blushed in embarrassment. "Is it that obvious to you? Does Mr. York also notice that I might have a bit of a crush on him?"

Nina remained silent, noticing that Linda did not conceal her own ambitions.

"It's just not right. He sees right through everything. If I try too hard to please him, will I seem desperate?" Linda pondered, wanting to become the one Mr. York admired the most. "I don't come from a prestigious background, yet he doesn't mind. Just being in the same space as him is good enough. If I want too much, it's just greed. Just being able to steal a few glances at him is already satisfying."

But even so, that wasn't her ultimate goal.

She looked to Nina, seeking an answer. "Nina, if I go to college, study hard, and make something of myself, disregarding my family background, will I be worthy of him?"

Her thoughts were bold, but they also reflected on Nina.

In a way, she and Linda were similar.

From Linda, Nina could see shades of her past self, striving tirelessly to pursue someone.

She didn't judge Linda harshly and asked, "Why do you like Mr. York?"

Linda responded, "He's been really good to me, letting me stay in a big house. Sure, he might seem cold on the outside, but he looks after me, takes me to the hospital and chats with me. He's different from other men. He doesn't have any ulterior motives towards me."

To call Linda naive would be oversimplifying, as Nina herself wasn't entirely pure, understanding how to take advantage of opportunities. And while Linda wasn't entirely pure, she still could be swayed by small gestures of kindness.
