CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery -
Chapter 124
"If you think the cook's dishes are delicious, then you should eat more," Nina placed the cup on the table, no longer intending to accompany her. She was about to leave, and with Nash not around, Linda feared that there wouldn't be another chance to ask certain questions.
So, before Nina departed, she remarked, "Typically, when someone evade a direct question, the answer is already apparent. You like Mr. York! And your recent remarks were because you fear my presence may pose a threat to you. Nina, do you have hidden agendas? Truthfully, you're reluctant to have me around because I slept with Mr. York, which upset you!"
Nina furrowed her brows and turned back around. Linda met her gaze confidently, no longer the timid girl she first appeared to be. "Where does your confidence come from?" Nina asked calmly. "Did you really sleep with Mr. York? It's too coincidental that I found you, of all people, here."
"So, you still don't believe me."
Linda looked at her, stood up, and replied, "What do I need to do for you to believe me?"
"That day was my first time going to the hotel, and such a thing happened. Initially, I didn't want to remember, but I know that man was Mr. York. I don't regret the decision I made that day."
Nina stared into Linda's eyes, innocent yet sincere. Looking into those eyes, she felt that Linda wouldn't lie. Her certainty left Nina speechless. "You've already moved in. Your goal isn't to make me believe, but to make Mr. York believe. If he believes you, that's enough."
Linda continued, "But I've fallen for Mr. York."
Nina paused and remained silent.
"I really like Mr. York, and I'll replace a way to make him like me. Please don't stop me anymore. The way you two interacted just now made me feel threatened. I don't want you to deliberately say things to undermine my confidence.
"If you also have feelings for him, we can compete fairly. Let's not resort to underhanded tactics behind each other's backs."
Nina realized that her few extra remarks had made Linda wary of her and suspicious of her intentions. But since Linda didn't ask, she wouldn't tell the whole truth.
Since she had ventured into dangerous territory, she couldn't possibly intervene anymore: "Your feelings are your own business, and have nothing to do with me." With that, Nina left.
However, Linda was even more determined to win Nash's heart. She took a shower. With wet hair and her body exposed, her fair skin glowing, she stood in front of the mirror, a picture of innocence and vulnerability.
Both in terms of figure and appearance, she stood out. And she was still young. In nightclubs, many men desired her body, but she didn't give in. She knew men could be bad; even if she needed money, she couldn't sell her body. Now she had found a home. She had to hold onto it tightly.
The next day, Nina got up early to go to the hospital. The doctor had told her to come back for another checkup once she felt better, and she also needed an ultrasound.
At the hospital registration, she got a number and headed to the gynecology department. The waiting area outside the ultrasound room was crowded, mostly with pregnant women accompanied by their husbands.
With hundreds of people ahead of her, she estimated she wouldn't be seen until the afternoon. She decided to come back early in the afternoon.
The gynecology department was on the third floor, so she took the elevator down.
"Ding!" The door opened, and someone was about to enter the elevator.
Nina looked up and saw the person in front of her. Her eyes widened, her face turned pale, and the registration slip in her hand fell to the ground.
