The Dark Secret of the CEO by Sofia de Orellana

Chapter 32

Chapter 32

Little by little Luz begins to open her eyes, her gaze is lost at a point where she doesn’t meet Gerard’s disappointed eyes.

Just when he was starting to give just a little bit, this hits him like a bucket of cold water. But it’s certainly not the worst, because the day will come when she asks him who her father is and she won’t be able to tell anything but the truth…

He doesn’t have the faintest idea.

-It’s better now, it’s just the shock of the news – the nurse leaves and they’re alone again -.

-Don’t you love your son, Luz? – She doesn’t answer, she just closes her eyes and lets the tears fall – Do you feel that it is an impediment to meet your goals? -she nods, because it’s partly because of that -.No, precious, it’s not like that…-he approaches her and takes her hands, without taking his eyes off her expression of deep pain-. Light, children are usually the best impulse for parents.

– And why did you leave Charlize alone for so long? -At any other time, that question could have been a slap in the face for Gerard, but now it’s not about him, but about Little Light-her.

-What I did to my daughter is unforgivable, I thought I was justified, but neither is it. You are different, you are strong, a woman who knows what she wants…

-Woman… I’m only eighteen years old! I had my life ahead of me, but now… now I have nothing left, this is the last thing I needed.

-Luz, you’re not alone – look at her fine fingers between her strong hands -. But if you think you can’t have that baby, there’s always adoption or… or abortion.

Those words bring Luz down to earth, they make her put everything in perspective and she realizes that it is not as simple as saying that she does not love that child.

Adoption ? Yes, why not? Leave her the burden that she didn’t want because she will never be able to see her child without thinking about the way he was conceived.

But abortion…
