CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery Chapter 1160
"Officer Zimmer, you know what to do. Don’t go easy on a woman this ruthless," Nash growled, his voice low but filled with fury.It was clear this time, someone had touched his bottom line.Nina and the baby were Nash’s ultimate boundaries. Anyone who crossed them would face serious consequences. Nurse Sarah, still attempting to make a last-ditch effort to resist, instantly stopped when Nash shot her a cold, piercing glare.After finishing up at the police station, Nash gently pinched Nina’s nose, teasingly scolding her. "You knew it was dangerous, so why did you follow them?""You found out," Nina pouted, rubbing her head against his arm playfully. Nash rolled his eyes at her, though the affection was clear.Of course he knew! They had been married for years. He could read her every small move and knew exactly what she was planning."I wanted to end the threat once and for all. Don’t worry, I won’t do it again.""It was really risky, though. What if something had happened? Ha

"Mom, Dad says I’m going to have a baby sister," Orion said as he hugged Nina as soon as she stepped out of the prenatal exam room. His excitement was contagious, and Nina couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.A son and now a daughter—what more could she ask for?"Are you happy, Mom?" Orion looked up at her with his hopeful face.Nina nodded, smiling warmly. "I’ve always wanted a daughter, so of course I’m happy.""That’s awesome!" Orion cheered, but then suddenly paused, "I want to get her a present. Mom, can we go shopping later?"Nina had already been thinking about preparing for the baby, so she readily agreed. She was planning to get some essentials like clothes and a hospital bag. She took Orion’s hand and nodded, and his excitement grew even more.To make things easier, Nash asked Caleb to prepare a wheelchair, and the whole family headed to a shopping district.Their first stop was a baby store, filled with all kinds of adorable items, so many that it was hard to choose. Nin

But since both of the girls had already taken sips from that cup, neither of them wanted the other to feel shortchanged. Reluctantly, they tossed that cup and bought two new ones.Nina was momentarily lost in thought. There was a time when she and Yvonne were just like that. They were always worrying about not giving enough to the other, fearing the other would be shortchanged because of them."What’s wrong? Craving some bubble tea?" Nash noticed her sudden drop in mood and bent down to ask.Nina shook her head, forcing a smile. "I want to visit Yvonne in the hospital."Without hesitation, Nash had Pharaoh take Orion home, and he accompanied Nina to Yvonne’s hospital room.As they were about to enter, Joe stepped out, and the three of them froze for a moment."What are you doing here? Haven’t you done enough to hurt Yvonne?" Nina’s tone was sharp, giving Joe no courtesy.Joe glanced briefly at Nash, but instead of arguing, he stepped aside and let them through.Yvonne looked

At the thought of her situation, Yvonne's eyes dimmed.Noticing her change in mood, Nina quickly sat down beside her, holding her hand for comfort. "It’s okay. Whatever happened before is in the past. You can go wherever you want, and I’ll help you."After what had happened to Yvonne, Nina had spent a lot of time reflecting. She realized that Yvonne’s sudden request for money must have meant something was seriously wrong. And as Yvonne’s only friend, Nina knew she was the only one who could help her.Once Nina came to that realization, she made a decision. Whatever Yvonne needed after waking up, she would agree to it, no questions asked. If Yvonne wanted to leave, then she would make it happen.Without wasting any time, Nina spotted a wheelchair and helped Yvonne into it, pushing her out of the hospital room."Where are you two going?" Nash asked, surprised. He noticed that Yvonne had woken up, but it seemed they were leaving in a hurry."Yvonne wants to leave, and I promised her

Joe immediately seized the opportunity, repeatedly promising that he would keep his word."Alright, have your men leave, and I’ll get out of the car to talk."Yvonne was still thinking about Nina’s safety. If the conversation went south, at least Nash could quickly drive away, ensuring Nina’s safety.The cars blocking the road pulled over to the side, and Nash parked his car by the curb as well, allowing traffic to flow normally again.As Yvonne opened the door, Nina grabbed her hand, concern in her eyes. Yvonne turned back to reassure her friend. "It’s alright, Nina. I’m craving some barbeque ribs. Could you ask your helper to prepare it for me?""Of course. I’ll call right now. But if anything feels wrong, get back in the car immediately," Nina urged, her unease growing as she watched Yvonne step out.Before Yvonne could reach him, Joe rushed over and pulled her to the side, wrapping her tightly in his arms."You’re awake. You’re finally awake. I thought… No, you were never go

Outside the hospital’s emergency room, Yvonne's sister-in-law, Winona Johnson, stormed in with her people. The moment she saw Yvonne, she walked over and slapped her hard across the face.Nina immediately pulled Yvonne behind her, glaring at Winona with anger in her eyes."Do you know why I hit you?" Winona's voice was icy cold.Yvonne nodded slightly. She could guess that it was because of Joe. If it weren’t for her, Joe wouldn’t be in the emergency room."Since you know, why are you still letting your friend protect you?" Winona's tone became even colder.Yvonne stepped forward, her voice trembling as she apologized, "I’m sorry.""Sorry?" Winona let out a bitter laugh. "Do you think sorry is enough? If it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t be like this. Yvonne, you’re the root of all evil."Unable to stand it any longer, Nina pulled Yvonne behind her again and confronted Winona directly. "Mrs. Turner, I think you need to understand something first. It was Mr. Turner who—""Nina, do
CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery Chapter 1166
In her memory, Joe had controlled every aspect of her life, dictating what she could wear and where she could go. It wasn’t about him helping or making her successful."Mrs. Turner, what’s your point? Even if what you say is true, does that justify hurting Yvonne?" Nina snapped, still convinced that Joe’s obsession with Yvonne was the reason for her suffering.After seeing Joe's erratic behavior today, Nina was more certain than ever that Yvonne needed to get away from him.Winona scoffed coldly, rising to her feet, and pointed at Yvonne. "Didn’t you say you were leaving? Then go. Leave for good. I want to see if you’re really going to walk away or if this is just another one of your games."I’m not like Joe. I have no feelings for you," Winona said, her tone harsh and emotionless, which was exactly what Yvonne had been hoping for.But still, she hesitated. Joe was in the emergency room, and she couldn’t just leave him behind. She couldn’t bring herself to walk away."Fine, we’ll

Not wanting to disappoint her fan, Yvonne reluctantly agreed to the additional exhibit. The meeting had not gone the way she had planned, and during the rest of the conversation, she was half-engaged, eager for it to be over.Finally, the investor took a phone call and excused himself, leaving Yvonne to breathe a sigh of relief.Nina pouted. "What am I going to do with you? You don’t want to keep benefiting from Joe’s protection, but you also can’t bear to let your fans down.""It’s fine. Joe hasn’t woken up yet, right? I can’t leave anyway, so I might as well go along with the investor’s plans. If we cooperate this time, next time they won’t give us any trouble," Yvonne said with a bitter smile, though she had little confidence in her words.She had been ready to breach her contract and pay the penalty, but now she was caught in organizing yet another exhibit. Yvonne sighed deeply.Nina shot her an exasperated look.As they were heading downstairs, Nina caught sight of the woman

But instead of feeling touched, Vera’s first reaction was nausea. A wave of discomfort surged up from her stomach, and Vera’s face paled. She bolted for the bathroom. Caleb followed quickly. “Are you feeling sick?” “I don’t think so. I’ve been eating normally—nothing too heavy or weird lately.” Vera clutched her stomach, just as confused as he was. Then, a possibility flashed through her mind. Caleb clearly had the same thought. Without a word, he turned and walked into their bedroom, returning moments later with a pregnancy test. Vera looked at him, stunned. “When did you buy that?” He responded matter-of-factly, “Better safe than sorry.” Vera was momentarily speechless. Five minutes later, she stepped out of the bathroom, her hand instinctively resting on her stomach, her expression a mix of shock and disbelief. It was positive. They had only been married for three months. How did this happen so fast?Caleb, on the other hand, remained composed—at le

Of course, Vera wasn’t about to dump all her responsibilities on her assistant. That would be exploitation. She called her assistant into her office. “You’re twenty-five this year, right?” Her assistant blinked, confused. Wasn’t her age common knowledge? Why was Vera suddenly bringing it up? A thought struck her. Was this an arranged marriage situation? Her face immediately filled with silent refusal. “Miss Vera, I’m still young. I’m not thinking about marriage anytime soon.” Vera tapped her pen against the desk. “I’m not telling you to get married.” “Oh.” “I just want to offload some of the smaller daily tasks to you. You don’t have to run every minor document by me.”Her assistant instantly understood. A raise. After confirming she was on board, Vera gave her a salary bump and had her hire a few more assistants to distribute the workload. “If I don’t have time to handle everything, you guys will take care of it. If something’s too complicated, jus

Vera could sense danger the moment the conversation turned in this direction. Her father had never questioned her about married life, and she was lucky enough to avoid nosy relatives. But just because she hadn’t experienced it firsthand didn’t mean she hadn’t seen it happen to others. Without hesitation, she abandoned the half-folded pastry in her hands. “I... uh, need to use the restroom.” Before she could escape, Mrs. Smith caught her wrist. “You and Caleb aren’t getting any younger,” she said matter-of-factly. “You should start thinking about kids—make sure you’re putting in the effort, hmm?” Vera left the kitchen visibly drained. Mrs. Smith was a wonderful mother-in-law, the kind who treated Vera like her own daughter. Despite knowing Vera came from a well-off family, she had still gifted them a house as a wedding present. Of course, Caleb already owned a place, but his mother had insisted. “That’s your house. This is the home I’m giving you as a weddi

That undeniable possessiveness flickered in Caleb’s gaze—subtle yet impossible to ignore. It was the kind of look a powerful man might give his beloved in an old Hollywood film. And right now, the photographer felt like the unlucky bystander who had accidentally stumbled upon an intimate scene. His voice wavered slightly, caught up in his own imagination. “Mr. Smith, lift your eyes toward the camera.” Caleb’s sharp gaze flickered over, intense and commanding. The photographer instinctively pressed the shutter. They continued with several more poses, reviewing the shots as they went. Vera loved them all, but her favorite was still the vintage-inspired one. “How long until we get the final prints?” she asked. “Two to three days at most,” the photographer replied. “I’ll have them shipped directly to you.” Then, after a slight pause, he hesitated before making a request. “I actually have a personal favor to ask—would you both be open to letting us displa

Vera was tempted. They had already taken plenty of wedding photos—several sets at the island, more at the wedding itself. But this wasn’t just any photo studio. It was privately booked and known for being one of the most prestigious studios in the city. Appointments here were nearly impossible to get. The fact that Caleb had managed to secure a session meant he had gone to great lengths to make it happen. If they were just going to take ordinary wedding pictures, it would be a waste of an opportunity. Still, she wasn’t sure what kind of shoot she wanted. The photographer, understanding her hesitation, pulled out a sample album. “You can take a look at our past work. These are some of the styles we’ve done.” Flipping through the pages, Vera saw an array of stunning concepts—each picture more breathtaking than the last. Then, one particular set caught her eye. A Golden Age Hollywood theme.It was classic, nostalgic, and beautifully atmospheric. “Ca

After the wedding, Vera considered taking some time off for a honeymoon. But the thought quickly faded when she realized Caleb had been practically living at the hospital. With a sigh, she dismissed the idea. She was used to it, but to say she wasn’t disappointed would be a lie. Her assistant picked up on it. “Mrs. Smith, don’t you want to go on a honeymoon?” she asked one day. “One of my friends just got married, and she’s been obsessively researching destinations. “She even said a marriage without a honeymoon is already half a failure.” Vera froze mid-page, suddenly losing interest in the documents she had been reviewing. Her assistant hesitated, then offered a suggestion. “Why don’t you go visit Dr. Smith at work?“You seem… distracted. Maybe seeing him will help.” Vera snapped out of her daze, suddenly aware of how preoccupied she had been lately. It was embarrassing to admit, but she had been zoning out far too often—especially after coming hom

Whenever they did this in the past, Caleb always maintained some restraint. But tonight—he didn’t hold back at all. He took her from the bedroom to the bathroom, then back to the bed, his searing kisses trailing every inch of her skin. The next morning, even as she woke up, Vera could still feel the lingering traces of last night’s intoxicating pleasure. As expected, she ended up taking the day off. It wasn’t until two days later that she finally returned to work. *Everyone at the company had already prepared for this. The moment Vera walked into the office, she was greeted with knowing smiles and teasing remarks. “Congratulations, Mrs. Smith!” “Newlywed bliss, huh?” “Three whole days off? Someone had a good time.” It didn’t take a genius to figure out what she had been up to. Obviously, her married life was going exceptionally well—so well that she had completely abandoned work for it. Under the weight of their mischievous stares, Vera barely k

Yelena still hadn’t accepted Hunter, but he wasn’t giving up either and was relentlessly closing in on her. Knowing Yelena’s soft heart, Vera figured it was only a matter of time before she gave in. She let out a sigh. Her friend’s love life wasn’t something she could interfere with. Besides, Caleb had already given her a little inside scoop. “She came to the hospital for a follow-up a few days ago,” he had mentioned casually. “Hunter was the one who brought her.” Vera had clicked her tongue at the news. Yelena always seemed quiet and reserved, but apparently, she was full of surprises.*Time flew by in the blink of an eye.By mid-month, Caleb had rented out an entire vineyard and spent several days transforming it into the perfect wedding venue.When the day arrived, the celebration took place right there.The vineyard was sprawling and elegant, every bit as grand as any luxury hotel—if not better. Even the wine cellar remained untouched, stocked with years-

“Did you plan this from the start?” Vera narrowed her eyes, feeling like she had just walked into a carefully laid trap. “Mm.” Caleb smiled, then leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to her lips. Because yes—he had always been planning this. The biggest change in Vera’s life after the island proposal was the ring now sitting on her finger. It wasn’t just any ring. It was custom-made, something Caleb had specially ordered. She only found out by accident when she glanced at his phone one day and saw the purchase record. It had been ordered two months ago. Vera did the math and was stunned. He had been preparing for this long before she even started getting impatient. Her heart swelled with emotion. And as soon as Caleb’s parents heard that their son had finally proposed, they wasted no time pushing them to get the marriage license. *One day, Vera overheard Caleb’s mother lecturing him. “Your dad and I weren’t expecting much from you. With how much ti
