Chapter 3356 How Could My Real Feelings Be Anything Less Than Genuine?

Luca tried to keep talking, but she could not hold it in any longer and broke down crying.

Just thinking about her child still being in Abel's hands made her heart ache, and she cried even harder. The thought of all the things Luke had done for her in secret pained her even more.

Luke had not done anything wrong, but it hurt that he had done so much and never told her. Luca knew he meant well. He wanted to shield her from worry.

However, when it came to something like this, she was involved too and could have helped. Yet Luke did everything on his own, keeping her in the dark for her own good, and that hurt her deeply.

Luca felt helpless. It seemed he still saw her as someone fragile.

It pained her that she could not do anything to help and that Luke had to shoulder everything alone.

When he saw her tears, Luke knew he had made a mistake by hiding the truth. She wanted to stand by his side through it all, but he had only thought of protecting her.

When it came to the issue of the Island of Despair, they were not on the same page.

The things he did to protect her did not always feel that way to her.

Luke took the initiative to apologize, "I'm sorry. I just wanted you to feel more at ease, which is why I didn't tell you."

Luca began crying even harder.

Luke, now panicked, grabbed tissues from the coffee table and gently wiped away her tears. Each tear that fell from her eyes landed heavily on his heart, tearing it into pieces.

"Luca, please don't cry. Watching you cry breaks my heart," Luke soothed her in a gentle voice. Her cries swept through him, turning his once unbreakable resolve into something achingly tender and soft.

Watching her eyes swell and redden, he wished he could cry in her place.

"You did it for my sake." Luca choked out between sobs. "But I care about our child too."

"I know. I was wrong." Luke surrendered, apologizing again. "I thought this would make things a little easier for you."
