CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1198

Joe silently cursed Nina in his heart a hundred times over. He had his reasons for bringing Yvonne to the hospital, and as the one taking care of her, who was she to interfere?

Outwardly, though, he kept his smile, explaining smoothly, "Nothing happened. I just happened to have some free time today, so I brought her in."

After that, he turned to Yvonne and asked gently, "Are you hungry? Let’s go get something good to eat."

Yvonne immediately nodded, eagerly repeating that she wanted something delicious.

"Mr. and Mrs. York, let’s catch up another time. I’m going to take her to eat," Joe said before walking off with Yvonne.

Nina, however, wasn’t fooled by Joe’s act. As soon as he left, she turned to Nash, voicing her suspicion that Joe was up to something. She insisted that Nash use his connections to find out Joe’s true motives.

It was finally her turn for the check-up, so Nash wheeled her into the examination room. While she was inside, Nash called the hospital director. He knew that if anyone could uncover Joe’s plans, it would be him.

By the time Nina’s check-up was over, the director had already sent Nash an update. Joe planned to have Yvonne's uterus removed.

Nina was livid. She wanted to march straight to Joe and confront him. Nash had to gently remind her that Orion was watching, helping her calm down.

After regaining her composure, Nina suggested, "Maybe we should ask my father to come and take Yvonne away. I’m scared she’ll get hurt."

Nash nodded, whispering in her ear, "I’ll handle it. Don’t worry. I promise everything will be sorted out."

Nina knew she had to be mindful of her own condition and reluctantly agreed to stay calm.

It did not take long for Joe to find out that Nina had discovered his plan. He locked himself in his study for an hour, contemplating his next move.

When he finally came out, he called Yvonne over and held her hand, asking, "Will you ever leave me?"

He chuckled bitterly, wiping Yvonne’s tears away with a forced smile. "I’m going out for a bit. Stay here and don’t go anywhere, okay?"

Yvonne nodded weakly.

As Joe left, he hesitated at the bottom of the stairs before doubling back to lock the door to his study.

The night was quiet, with only the occasional gust of wind. Yvonne curled up on the couch, staring out the window as silent tears fell.

She whispered to herself, "Little sister isn’t scared, little sister is brave. Little sister won’t cry. Little sister will be good so my brother won’t get mad."

Muttering to herself, she eventually cried herself to sleep.
