CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

The Stone family wasn't just greedy. They were relentless, always pushing boundaries and expecting more.

Karina sighed. "It's not that I can't stand up to them, but sometimes it feels unnecessary. There are things that just can't be explained."

Wilfred didn't press further. "Pack your things and come with me. I have to travel for a project negotiation that will help our hospital continue expanding."

He was determined to firmly establish himself in Birkham, not just for his professional ambitions but also because Nina was there. Wilfred wanted to protect her and mentor his students, ensuring they could safeguard Nina's children in the future. "But didn't we already promise a patient that we'd perform surgery?" Karina asked, a little hesitant.

"I'll arrange for someone else to handle it."

While Karina might have been the better choice for the surgery, Wilfred had other options, including pulling Caleb in at the last minute.

"Alright," Karina replied.

Since Wilfred had a plan, she didn't press the issue. She didn't have much to pack anyway. Most of her essentials, like a change of clothes, were already in her office, a convenience for her night shifts.

Karina quickly grabbed her things and followed Wilfred out of the hospital.

Just as they were leaving, a message from Sera popped up on Karina's phone.

"Karina, if you don't want me to ruin you, you'd better do as I say. Otherwise, don't expect me to let you go."noveldrama

Karina's first instinct was to ignore it, but she worried that Sera might keep escalating, disrupting her further. Reluctantly, she replied, "If you'd like me to take this message to the police, be my guest."

Her expression must have darkened, because Wilfred noticed immediately. His brows furrowed as he asked, "Is it that family again?"

"No," Karina replied quickly, shaking her head.

Wilfred could tell from her reaction exactly what was going on.

"Sera," he muttered. His tone dropped, sharp and cold. "Do you want me to take care of her once and for all? I don't want my assistant dealing with this today, that

tomorrow. It's a wastett

Karina forced a smile. "No need. I've already taken care of it."

She was confident her response to Sera would quiet her for a while.

"Good," Wilfred said bluntly. "But let me be clear: we're traveling for work. I expect you to focus entirely on the job. I don't want to see you wasting time dealing with personal issues. Understood?" en

"Yes, I understand," Karina replied, nodding.

Unlike last time, all the logistics for their trip, including the hotel arrangements, were handled in advance. Their rooms were conveniently across from each other. Before parting, Wilfred instructed her, "Get some rest tonight. I have a meeting tomorrow, and I expect no disruptions from you."

"Got it," Karina said.

She thought everything was finally settling down, but the Stone family wasn't about to let her go that easily.

What had once been just harassing messages from Kieran had now escalated to the entire family taking turns contacting her.

Mr. Stone had called her multiple times and sent countless texts. Mrs. Stone did the same.

Kieran had always clung to his twisted version of love, but now his behavior had become outright deranged. He sent Karina an outrageous demand.

"Karina, just give me a child. Once you have the baby, you'll be completely free from the Stone family. I promise I'll never bother you again. You'll finally have your freedom."

But it didn't stop there. Kieran didn't

bombard her with calls and messages. Somehow, he had obtained several unknown numbers and used them to relentlessly send the same disturbing messages and make incessant phone calls.
