CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Karina spent most of her first day in the office tidying up, yet not a single patient appointment came through.

She wasn't discouraged, reassuring herself that it was only her first day. Work would surely pick up over time.

As the clock approached the end of her shift, she began gathering her things to leave, when the door suddenly swung open. A nurse burst in, her face pale with urgency.

"Dr. Norman, do you have a moment? We have a patient with severe burns!"

Karina hesitated. "But I'm not a surgeon..."

Her expertise was in internal medicine, specializing in cardiology and cellular studies. While she had some understanding of surgical procedures, it wasn't her area of proficiency.

The nurse hadn't expected this response but quickly added, "The patient is a young child, and it's an emergency. Two of the surgeons have already left for the day, and the others are tied up with critical cases."

Hearing how dire the situation was, Karina frowned and stood up. "Take me to the patient."

Following the nurse, Karina made her way to the emergency area.
