CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1862

Karina didn’t resist.

The scent was too familiar—so familiar that she didn’t need to turn around to know who it was.

Of course, there was another reason she didn’t want to look back. She wasn’t in a good mood.

She tugged at the jacket draped over her shoulders. “I was just thinking about something I once heard,” she said softly.

Wilfred stayed silent, waiting for her to continue.

“They say hospitals hear more prayers than churches. I never understood it before, but now, as someone on the inside, I do.” Karina’s voice carried a quiet sadness, tinged with melancholy.

Wilfred’s chest tightened at her words. Without thinking, he pulled her into a gentle embrace.

Both of them froze for a moment, caught off guard by his action.

But neither moved to pull away. Instead, they relaxed, a shared silence settling between them. In that moment, it felt as though the invisible barrier that had always been there had quietly dissolved.

Karina finally let her thoughts spill out. “Honestly, I’ve felt this way for a long time, but today really drove it home.

“Sometimes I wonder if I’m just a hypocrite. I feel sympathy for those who suffer, but there’s so little I can actually do for them. It’s like my compassion is just… empty.”

“No, it’s not,” Wilfred said firmly. “You’re kindhearted. Don’t doubt yourself. You’ve already done everything you can.”

The hospital corridor was quiet, the faint hum of the overhead lights filling the stillness. Karina lowered her head, leaning into him for warmth and solace, taking a moment to simply rest.

The next day, Karina was back to her usual self.
