CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 587

Wilfred flinched, clearly not wanting to be touched.

This only made Nina more suspicious. "Why are you still bleeding?" she demanded.

His injury had been there for a while. Even if it had not fully healed, it should not still be bleeding unless he had a new wound.

Wilfred tightened his sleeve, but the few drops of blood were hard to ignore. Forcing a smile, he made an excuse. "I cut myself while cooking. It's nothing serious."

Nina was not convinced. "You've handled surgical tools for years. How could you accidentally cut yourself? You can't fool me! This doesn't look like a cooking injury. What really happened?"

Wilfred remained silent.

Seeing his reluctance, Nina took his hand and saw the hastily wrapped bandage around his wrist. It was not well done, likely because he had to do it himself with one hand.

"It's just a minor injury," Wilfred said softly. "You've seen worse on me. This is nothing."

He hoped she would drop the topic, but Nina's suspicions only deepened. "Did you cut yourself?" she asked.

Wilfred hesitated, then pulled his hand away. "Why would you think that?"

Nina responded, "If it was an accident, how did you cut your wrist? Your bandage is too sloppy, and the cut is too clean. It looks self-inflicted, and it must have happened here. A doctor wouldn't do such a poor job bandaging a wound unless they were using one hand in a hurry, which is why it's still bleeding."

Nina's deductions left Wilfred speechless.

He had underestimated her perceptiveness. When he found her unconscious, he knew only his blood could revive her, so he did not hesitate to cut his wrist. In his rush to care for her, he barely tended to his wound.

Nina pressed on. "Why would you cut yourself?"
