CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1186

Joe knew that Yvonne's words earlier were mostly to stop him from bothering her, but Nigel wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Seeing Yvonne look down without a word, Nigel refused to give up and asked again, "If marrying me would get rid of Joe for good, would you do it?"

Yvonne lifted her head, tears welling up in her eyes. "That wouldn’t be fair to you."

Nigel let out a bitter laugh. "Fairness doesn’t matter to me. I can see you don’t feel that way about him. Since that’s the case, I like you, and if being your shield is what it takes, so be it."

Yvonne choked up, unable to find the right words. And just like that, they agreed to a marriage, a decision that should have been made with more caution.

The next morning, when Yvonne told Nina about it, Nina was shocked. She stared at Yvonne in disbelief for a long time before Yvonne gave a bitter smile, and Nina began to understand.

Nina took Yvonne's hand and gently urged, "Before this goes public, you should explain things to him. You can’t go through with this marriage."

Yvonne shook her head. "I’ve thought about it all night and I’ve made peace with it. Nina, I don’t have much time left, right? So why not get married once before I leave this world?"

Nina didn’t know how to respond to that. All she felt was a deep ache in her heart for Yvonne.

Joe was the first to hear the news of Yvonne and Nigel’s wedding, set for the following Sunday. On that day, he turned away all visitors and locked himself in his hospital room, staring at the ceiling for an entire day.

From then on, Joe stopped seeking Yvonne out. However, behind the scenes, he arranged for her art exhibit to be fully reorganized and even gave the investors a generous payment as a thank-you.
