CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1829

As soon as the man's attention shifted, Karina acted without hesitation. She lifted her leg and delivered a sharp kick straight to his groin. The man immediately let go, doubling over in pain.

Karina didn't waste a second. She bolted for the door, grabbing anything within reach a patient file, a water glass-and hurling them at him as she ran, not even pausing to aim. His curses and shouts echoed behind her as she escaped. Just as she darted out the door, she collided with what felt like a wall of solid muscle.

Before she could react, large hands gripped her shoulders, holding her firmly in place.

Karina didn't look up. In her panic, she assumed it was one of the man's accomplices. Terrified, she yelled, "No! Get away from me!"

She tried to repeat her earlier tactic, but this time her attempt was blocked.

Her heart sank in despair-until a familiar voice came from above her. "Why are you so shaken up? Did someone hurt you?"

Karina froze, then looked up and saw Wilfred. Without thinking, she threw herself into his arms, tears streaming down her face.

Wilfred's expression darkened further as he gently patted her back to comfort her. His broad shoulders radiated a sense of safety, helping her gradually calm down in his embrace.

Just as she was about to explain what had happened, the man she had kicked earlier stormed out of the office, roaring with rage. "You bitch! I'll kill you!"
