CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1856

After wiping away her tears, Wendy calmed down and seemed like herself again

Karina thought for a moment before saying gently, “Don’t blame yourself because of them.”

“What?” Wendy asked, confused.

“They’re not worth it. What you need to learn first isn’t how to gain their approval—it’s how to accept yourself and love yourself,” Karina said, her words deliberate and firm, her gaze filled with both sympathy and a hint of reminiscence.

She was thinking about her own past.

When Karina was living with the Stone family, she was just like Wendy. Karina was ignored and treated poorly too. Back then, she was young and naive, thinking that if she just tried harder, Mr. and Mrs. Stone would one day change their view of her.

It wasn’t until she had endured countless setbacks and hardships that she finally understood a crucial truth that not everyone was worth pleasing.

Or rather, the moment someone demanded you to lower yourself to please them, they had already shown they were not worth it.

With a calm expression, Karina said softly, “Sometimes, learning to let go is a good thing.”

The room fell into silence.

After a long pause, Wendy finally looked up and asked, “Did you go through something like this before?”

It wasn’t that she was particularly perceptive but Karina’s emotions were just too obvious.

Karina hesitated, unsure whether to open up. But in the end, she nodded and slowly shared her own story.

Wendy listened intently, her expression serious. When Karina finished, Wendy sat quietly, lost in thought, as if she had come to some realization.

Karina, however, couldn’t stay long. She had other matters to attend to, so she left after giving Wendy a few words of encouragement. “Try not to pay too much attention to those people,” she said gently before leaving.

Back at the hospital, Karina remembered the half-finished paper she had set aside earlier. Resigned, she opened her laptop and worked late into the night to complete it.
