CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1826

“Dr. Norman… my life is so miserable. If I had known it would come to this, I’d rather have died than gotten married. What do I do now? If it were just me, I’d leave everything behind and disappear. But my daughter is only eight years old—she’s still so little,” the woman sobbed.

Karina hesitated for a moment. “You do need to consider her…”

Suddenly, she thought of Wilfred. Among her own connections, she didn’t know anyone in the legal field. But Wilfred might.

Still, since she hadn’t asked him yet, she couldn’t promise anything. For now, she focused on calming both the mother and the child.

The little girl was surprisingly mature for her age. At just eight years old and barely into elementary school, she didn’t fully understand the situation or what had been done to her.

In her own innocent words, she said, “Daddy just played a little game with me. He said if I didn’t cry, I’d get a reward.”

Even so, she understood that her mother was upset because of her.

“Mommy, don’t cry. It doesn’t hurt at all,” she said softly, patting her mother’s hand in comfort.

The woman stared at her daughter in shock, tears streaming uncontrollably down her face.

Karina felt a sharp ache in her heart. Such a kind, understanding little girl, and yet she had been subjected to such cruelty.

She cast one last glance at the mother and daughter embracing in her office before silently closing the door and walking briskly toward Wilfred’s office, her anger simmering so intensely it seemed to propel her forward.

Knock, knock, knock. She rapped on the door but got no response.

She was about to knock again when Wilfred’s voice came from behind her. “Looking for me?”

Startled, Karina turned to see him adjusting his white coat.

“I just finished an emergency surgery,” he explained, his exhaustion barely concealed.
