CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery -
Chapter 1757
Wilfred noticed her hesitation. "Do you feel like you're not up to the task?"
Karina instinctively wanted to decline. She felt Wilfred had already done so much for her, but before the words left her mouth, she heard a faint voice within-a voice of ambition. Some people settled into their environments and coasted through life, taking it one day at a time. It was not necessarily a bad way to live, but Karina wasn't one of them.
She had ambition, a drive that wouldn't let her accept mediocrity. It was this determination that allowed her to work multiple jobs over the years and save an astounding six million dollars. Some of her former employers had been reluctant to let her go when she moved on.
Karina hesitated for only a second before making up her mind. She decided to follow her instincts. "No, I can handle it. I might not be this confident in everything, but for this, I know I can do it." She had studied that medical case thoroughly and had prior experience researching similar clinical conditions. She wasn't about to let this opportunity slip through her fingers. Wilfred's typically aloof expression softened slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Good. That's what I wanted to hear. The surgery is yours. But just so you know, I won't help you." Karina had already prepared herself for this.
The condition was extraordinarily rare. The patient's cells divided at an accelerated rate, causing their aging process to slow down dramatically. When they realized something was wrong, they came to the hospital for an examination, but the hospital had never encountered such a case before.
Word spread quickly, and soon the condition became a hot topic in medical circles. The hospital included the case in its research projects, working on both treatment and study simultaneously.
It was worth noting that the project faced heavy opposition when first proposed. No one knew exactly who was behind it, but there were forces actively working to block the plan. They didn't want to save the patient, they only cared about using the case for research. Rumor had it that Wilfred brought in a high-profile figure to take charge, and only then was the plan approved.
Now, the project was in Wilfred's hands.
Wilfred flipped through the medical
file. "I know you've studied international cases similar to this one. You've gone through every related document the hospital has on record."

Karina flushed slightly with embarrassment. "Were those files off-limits? I didn't know..."
"That's why I'm assigning you the surgery," Wilfred interrupted, handing her the medical file. "Go over it thoroughly."
Only then did Karina realize the file she'd been working with before wasn't complete.
Wilfred explained, "Some people within the project didn't want the full data leaked. The documents
released publicly were split into two parts. Only the first half was made available."
Karina nodded in understanding.
The first half had been accessible because she hadn't officially joined the project. Now that she had, she was being entrusted with the second half as well. The realization left her feeling both honored and a little overwhelmed.
She was surrounded by top-tier professionals, and she felt like an insignificant nobody in comparison. How could she not feel nervous?
Sensing her unease, Wilfred's voice
softened. "Don't overthink it. It's just
a set of documents. Everyone on
team has seen them. And being
given the file doesn't mean the

surgery is guaranteed to be yours."
His expression grew serious, prompting Karina to straighten up as well. After a long moment of reflection, she nodded. "I understand. I'll work hard to earn it."
Her hands clenched into fists as Wilfred's sharp gaze lingered on her bright eyes for a moment before he awkwardly looked away.
Just as Karina was about to leave, a thought crossed her mind. She turned back. "But what about the rumors about me? They're still out there."
"They've already been cleared up," Wilfred replied.
Her surprise was evident, both in her expression and her voice. "When did that happen?"
