CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1219

Mr. Fay clutched his chest, his voice pained. “Lydia, you’d go this far for a man? You’d hurt your parents like this?”

Mrs. Fay, equally panicked, pleaded, “Lydia, put the knife down. Your father’s health isn’t good. Please, don’t make him worry anymore!”

But Lydia didn’t lower the knife. Instead, she let out a bitter laugh. “You’re asking me not to hurt him, not to hurt you. But what about me? Have you thought about the fact that you’re hurting me? I’ve always been the obedient daughter, doing everything to make you happy.

“Even when I took the job as a secretary at York Corporation, it was because you wanted me to gain some experience. But now, what’s it turned into?

“I never dated in college, never had a boyfriend. Now I’ve finally found someone I love, and Quincy treats me so well. Why can’t I be with him?

“Is Quincy such a terrible person?”

If he were, Nash wouldn’t have trusted and mentored him all these years. Quincy was capable and respected in the industry, with many companies trying to lure him away with better offers, but he stayed loyal to Nash.

Someone like that, wasn’t he trustworthy?

Everyone knew that Nash had left for five years, and during that time, Quincy managed the entire York Corporation without ever considering taking it over for himself. That kind of integrity was something anyone could admire.

As she saw the blood trickling down Lydia’s neck, Mrs. Fay felt a chill run through her. “Please, put down the knife. It’s not that Quincy’s a bad person, but we want you to be with someone even better.”

“As long as Quincy can prove himself in a short amount of time, we’ll allow you to get married,” Mr. Fay added reluctantly.

Only then did Lydia lower the knife and walk out the door.

After leaving the Fay residence, Quincy mulled over what Lydia’s parents had said. They weren’t entirely wrong. If they didn’t approve and weren’t willing to give him a chance, he didn’t want to hold Lydia back any longer.

So, as he drove away, Quincy made a decision. He blocked Lydia’s contact and headed back to York Corporation, planning to immerse himself in work to numb the pain.

Although Quincy didn’t show any emotion, Nash could see right through him. Using work as an excuse, Nash called him into his office.
