CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1440

Nash agreed to everything calmly. Back at the hotel, he called Orion on a video chat.

Unlike his usual cheerful self, Orion stared intently at the woman on the screen, a confused frown crossing his face. Something about his “mom” felt off, although he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.

The woman, however, kept showering him with concern, trying her best to act motherly.

After a few short responses, Nash ended the call. This hotel belonged to Freya’s family, making it his turf. He had already sent his security team to check for any suspicious figures on the premises, so now it was time to start gathering information.

……

When Nina finally regained consciousness, she found herself face-to-face with a masked man. She kept her tone steady, cold. “If you went through all this trouble to bring me here, why hide behind a mask? Is your face really that shameful?”

The man let out a laugh, handing her a photo of a woman who looked strikingly like her. “What do you think of her resemblance? She’s currently with your husband, alone, just the two of them. Any thoughts on what might happen between them?”

Just the thought thrilled him.

Nina glanced around, assessing her surroundings and sizing up the man’s strength. Subtly, she twisted her wrists behind her back, slowly loosening the ropes until they came free. She kept her face composed, revealing nothing.

Her calm demeanor was far beyond what the masked man had anticipated.

“Not long at all. You’ll be reunited soon enough,” he replied with a malicious smile hidden behind his mask.

The “reunion” he planned involved a fatal twist. He had poisoned the imposter, ensuring that if Nash and the woman shared any level of intimacy, Nash would die soon after.

With Nash dead and Nina under his control, he would gain not only the wealth of the York family but leverage over Micah, using Nina’s life to strengthen his organization’s power.

Convinced of his victory, the masked man waited in smug anticipation, while Nina bided her time. Before leaving for this mission, Micah had given her a discreet tracking device, the size of a fingernail, which she had tucked into a button of her clothing.

So far, the masked man hadn’t noticed, and she knew it wouldn’t be long before Micah’s team tracked her location and came to her aid.
