CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Still, as long as she could see the smiles on the faces of patients and their families, it all felt worth it.

But when Karina went to the director's office, it was empty.

The quiet room seemed to carry traces of Wilfred's presence, leaving her momentarily dazed. "Where could he have gone?" she wondered.

Just then, someone passing by said, "Are you looking for Dr. Wilfred? I just saw him change clothes and leave. He might have gone home. It's already past office hours."

Karina glanced outside at the darkening sky and nodded in realization. But something still didn't sit right.

Not to mention, Wilfred always let her know when he was leaving work. Most days, he would even drive her home. If he wanted to go back on his own today, wouldn't he at least say something?

Shaking her head, she gave her cheeks a hard slap-hard enough to make them sting. "What are you even thinking, Karina? Who are you to him, anyway? He doesn't owe you an explanation for leaving." Talking herself down helped ease her feelings a bit.

Determined not to dwell on it, Karina focused on tidying up her disrupted office. But as she walked to the window, she found herself mumbling, "Maybe I won't head home right away. There's that flower shop near Wilfred's place..." She hadn't replaced the red dianthus plant that Harley had ruined last time, and now seemed like the perfect opportunity to pick one up.
