CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1729

Wilfred raised his hand, gently brushing aside a strand of hair from Karina's forehead. His fingertips grazed her cheek, the touch lingering with a subtle trace of something ambiguous.

Karina's face flushed instantly, heat spreading across her skin. Her wide eyes reflected a mix of shock and embarrassment.

“Dr. Norman, you’re acting very strangely today,” Wilfred said softly, his deep voice tinged with an almost hypnotic calm, sending shivers down her spine.

Karina’s lips trembled, and she stammered, trying to explain but failing miserably. “I—I… Dr. Wilfred, I… ”

Wilfred's gaze sharpened, his eyes turning cold as he suddenly grabbed her wrist. The strength of his grip made Karina gasp in pain.

"So this is your plan? I finally see it now," he said, his voice laced with anger and disappointment. "You spiked my water, thinking I wouldn’t notice? Did you really think I wouldn’t taste it?"

Karina froze, terror flashing across her face. She hadn’t expected him to notice.

“Dr. Wilfred, please… I—I have my reasons. Just let me explain!” she pleaded, her voice trembling, tears pooling in her eyes.

Wilfred let out a bitter, scornful laugh. “Reasons? What possible reason could justify drugging someone? I trusted you, Karina. I really thought you were better than this.”

“It’s not what you think—please!” Karina cried, but Wilfred was unmoved. The hurt and disgust in his eyes cut through her like a blade.

As someone who had once been subjected to drug experimentation, Wilfred had an acute sensitivity to any substance. The moment he tasted the water, he knew something was wrong. He had spat it out discreetly, but the betrayal still left him cold.

“I put my trust in you, and this is how you repay me? Have you completely lost your conscience?” Wilfred growled, his anger boiling over as he dragged Karina toward the door.

“Dr. Wilfred, please listen to me!” she begged, tears streaming down her face.

Wilfred ignored her pleas, yanked the door open, and shoved her out into the hallway. “Get out!”
