CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Just as Ava was about to cause a scene, the sound of steady footsteps filled the room. Wilfred strode in, his white coat enhancing his composed, almost ethereal aura.

Ava shot Karina a glare, silently committing her to memory, then begrudgingly found another seat.

Wilfred's gaze swept across the room, pausing ever so briefly on Karina before moving on. She wasn't sure if it was real or just her imagination.

"Today, we'll discuss cellular structures. I'll start with an example from my doctoral thesis," Wilfred announced, adjusting the projector.

To Karina's surprise, he was an exceptional lecturer-clear, engaging, and far more comprehensible than many university professors. She listened intently, taking meticulous notes.

Yvette peeked over at Karina's notebook, wide-eyed at the densely packed writing. "Karina, when you eventually get promoted, land a big raise, or go for your doctorate, I promise I won't be jealous. Truly." Karina chuckled. "If you need these notes, I can lend them to you."

"Never mind, I'm fine where I am," Yvette said with a dismissive wave, knowing her own limits and choosing to decline Karina's offer.

After the lecture ended, Karina still felt a lingering sense of wanting to learn more. Just as she was packing up, a nurse she didn't know very well approached her.
