CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1767

Karina was more than willing to rest. It had been a while since she felt this exhausted, the kind of tiredness that made her want to stay still for days.

After grabbing a cup of instant noodles from the cupboard and finishing it off, she took a quick shower and climbed into bed, ready to sleep for as long as her body needed.

But just as she was drifting off, loud knocks on her door startled her awake. The banging grew louder and more insistent.

At first, she thought it might be a delivery, but when she opened the door, she was greeted by the sight of Kieran sitting in a wheelchair. Instantly alert, her first instinct was to slam the door shut.

“Karina, is that it? You see me and don’t even want to say a word?” Kieran’s hand shot out to block the door.

He was strong. No matter how hard Karina pushed with all her might, she couldn’t close the door. Her resistance only seemed to fuel his anger.

Grabbing her wrist tightly, Kieran said, “I’m here to talk, that’s all. Let me in, and we can have a proper conversation.”

Karina wasn’t naive. Letting him in would be easy, but getting him out? That would be nearly impossible.

Her expression turned cold. “There’s nothing for us to talk about.”

“Dad’s sick,” Kieran blurted, his tone urgent. “He was just discharged last night. I came here to tell you so we can visit him together.”

He clearly thought this would soften her resolve, that she would relent and go with him.

For a moment, Karina hesitated. But then the memories of everything they had done to her came rushing back, steeling her determination.

“I’ve already repaid every cent I owed. If Dad’s unwell, you should be the one taking care of him, not coming here to bother me.”

She could already predict how things would go if she went back with him. They would use this excuse to keep her trapped there again. She had worked so hard to escape and had no intention of walking back into their grasp.
