CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery
Chapter 1017

The men's ring had a smaller diamond than the women's, but it was slightly larger in size and had a beautiful row of small diamonds around it. The most significant part for Freya was that it allowed for engraving.

Freya looked at Micah and asked, "Can we have our names engraved on them? After a month, you can give me your ring. I'll cover the cost."

She was worried that Micah might refuse, so she tried to make the situation as easy as possible for him. Although Micah was not one to be difficult, he also could not let her pay for something like this.

"If you want to engrave names, go ahead. I'll take care of the payment," Micah replied quietly.

He gave the salesperson a nod, signaling to process the payment. "Charge it and-"

Before he could finish saying "package it," Freya interrupted, "No need to package them. Let's wear them right away."

Her eyes sparkled with hope, joy, and excitement as she eagerly extended her hand.

Micah did not refuse. As he slipped the ring onto Freya's finger, she admired it with delight.

It was not just beautiful. It was a pair of matching rings, a symbol of their connection, even if it was only for a month. But in her mind, Micah's willingness to go along with this meant he was accepting their bond, just as she was. "Why don't we split the cost?" Freya suggested, not wanting Micah to bear the entire expense.

Micah responded firmly, "I don't have a habit of letting women pay."

Freya did not push the matter further, feeling a warmth spread through her heart. Any relationship begins with small gestures, like spending time and money together.

"What would you like to eat?" Micah asked as he pushed her wheelchair out of the store, giving her a moment to think.

Freya thought for a moment and then said, "Just some home-style dishes. I'm also thinking, after some time, maybe we could visit Nina."

"If your health allows, that should be fine," Micah replied.

Nina and Freya had started as rivals but had become close friends over time. Micah could not object to Freya's decision.

"Good," Freya said, full of anticipation.

Meanwhile, back in Birkham, Nina and Nash had returned three days ago.

They were staying at Riverside Estate, where they had lived before, and Nash had already visited his father, William.

Sally was now in a nursing home in Birkham, living in her own world, unaware of the passing days. William had moved on and had a new family.

The York residence was still maintained by servants, but William no longer lived there. The York Corporation was now managed by Quincy and Zoe, with William holding shares but no real power. He did not seem to mind since the assets were still under the York family's name.

But when William saw Nash and Nina, holding hands with Orion, he realized that the York Corporation would no longer belong to the York family but to Nash.

With Nina holding shares as well, the company was slipping out of the family's grasp, which did not sit well with William. He brought up his concerns with Nash, but the conversation ended on a sour note.

Today, William approached Nash again.

"You're not even part of the York family," William said coldly. "It's only fair that you give back what isn't yours.

"Even if you're unwilling, what about your younger siblings? Should they be left with nothing?" William had previously stayed out of things, content with the money he received every month. He had no real power, but his children did.

But now, with Nash and Nina back on the scene, what would be left for his kids?

"Haven't you been receiving York Corporation's regular payments every month? If not, then return every cent you've taken," Nash replied.
