CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery
Chapter 1726

After successfully connecting with Wilfred on the messaging app, Karina let out a sigh of relief, but her nerves quickly returned. The next task of getting his photo was even more stressful.

One day, while at the hospital's lounge, Karina noticed Wilfred sitting alone, absorbed in reviewing some documents. The area wasn't crowded, and this seemed like her best opportunity. Summoning her courage, she sat down across from him, pretending to scroll through her phone. In reality, she quietly turned on the front-facing camera, adjusted the angle, and quickly snapped a photo. Luckily, Wilfred remained engrossed in his work and didn't notice.

Karina immediately sent the photo to Sera, who replied enthusiastically, "Dr. Norman, you nailed it! This is what I'm talking about."

However, trouble soon followed. Wilfred messaged Karina, inquiring about the academic discussion she had previously mentioned. Her heart pounded, unsure how to respond.

Sensing the growing tension, Sera stepped in with a suggestion. "Have him add me instead. That way, we can redirect his attention, and you'll be off the hook."

Reluctantly, Karina approached Wilfred again. "Dr. Wilfred, there's a young medical student who's also deeply interested in the recent surgery. She has some unique perspectives in her research, and I thought it might be valuable for the two of you to connect. Here's her contact information."

Wilfred's sharp gaze lingered on her, his expression unreadable. After a pause, he nodded. "Alright."

To Karina's relief, he accepted the connection.

In the days that followed, Wilfred

initiated academic discussions with Karina, delving into topics

surrounding the surgery. Nervous as she was, Karina managed to demonstrate her strong professional knowledge and analytical skills, answering his questions calmly and articulately.

Impressed, Wilfred began to see her potential. Though something about her behavior occasionally struck him as odd, her competence was undeniable.

"Dr. Norman," he said one day, his tone serious yet encouraging, "your performance has been impressive. You have a lot of untapped potential.

"I'm considering assigning you more challenging cases and involving you in key research projects. Do you think you're up for it?"

Karina was caught completely off guard. She hadn't expected the situation to escalate to this point. But she quickly regained her composure. "Thank you for the opportunity, Dr. Wilfred. I won't let you down."

From that moment, Karina threw

herself wholeheartedly into the responsibilities Wilfred assigned her.

She arrived at the hospital early each day, meticulously analyzing complex cases, poring over medical literature, and crafting detailed treatment plans.

Yet despite her focus, the weight of her deal with Sera lingered at the back of her mind. She had fulfilled her end of the bargain, but unease still gnawed at her.

Meanwhile, Wilfred kept a close eye on Karina's progress. He observed not only her deep theoretical knowledge but also her precise, skilled execution in practical scenarios.

It was during this time that the

hospital received an invitation for an

international medical exchange program at a prestigious research institute abroad. As the hospital's director, Wilfred was tasked with selecting a doctor to accompany him.

After carefully considering the candidates, he made his decision. He chose Karina.

The news spread quickly through the hospital, sparking a mix of excitement and speculation. Karina herself felt both thrilled and apprehensive.
