The Dark Secret of the CEO

Chapter 73

Luz and Gerard are sitting on the front lawn watching Charlize reach for butterflies and birds. He does not stop caressing Luz’s belly, with her warm hand under her blouse.

I think it’s a little bigger. -It’s the same, the clothes don’t lie – she tells him laughing -. But soon it will look bigger. -When will we go to control? -I already have an appointment for next week – she tells him crossing her legs -. -Because I did not know? – Gerard tells her sitting in front of her with a frown – - Well… because the appointment is in the morning and you… you are busy in the mornings.

“Honey, I’ll never be busy if it’s about you,” he caresses her face. When you make an appointment with the doctor, he just calls Dorothy and tells her to add it to my schedule-he gives her a tender kiss and smiles at her-. I don’t want to miss anything about our baby.

-You’re wonderful – she takes him by the neck and forces him to stick his lips with hers – Gerard lays her down on the grass, without intensifying the kiss much, because he already knows what will remain.

Those feelings are the best, the ones you don’t want to forget and keep in your memory, the way you started your relationship, after all.

For Luz it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to her and she doesn’t want it to end, but nothing lasts forever.

Someone clears his throat and Gerard moves away from Luz a little, he looks up and sees his mother, her arms crossed and one of her heels hitting the floor repeatedly.

-What does this mean?! – she says in a shrill tone – I can’t believe they’re doing this in the garden of my house!

-According to you, mother, what are we doing? – Gerard tells him who stands up and helps Luz to do the same –

-They just need to take off their clothes, to end up like two indecent – she says upset and Luz laughs – Do you think it’s funny, girl?! Charlize could come and see them like this!

At that moment, Charlize appears excited because a butterfly landed on her hand, but when she sees her grandmother, she runs towards her to hug her.

– Granny! – but the woman takes her away from her without any care -.

-Not now, Charlize, I’m berating your father! – The girl remains sad looking at the floor and puts her hands together. Luz is turned on by all that hasn’t been necessary to take out in recent weeks -.

She walks over to the little girl and takes her in her arms, not letting Georgia kill her with a look. Feeling self-conscious, she walks over to Gerard and hands the little girl over to him. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“If you don’t mind dealing with the consequences later, can you leave me alone with her for a few minutes?”

-As you wish, my life – leaves a kiss on the lips and looks at Charlize smiling – Let’s go for a chocolate popsicle?

.

d t e :

-Yes! -Georgia is shocked by the way her son leaves her place, without paying the slightest attention to her

– Gerard! – tries to go after them, but Luz gets in her way –

-Oh no, vieja bruja plastificada – la mujer abre los ojos y se lleva las manos al pecho, corno si le fuese a dar un ataque de vejez -. Esa niña preciosa solo quería abrazar a la vieja de su abuela, pero en lugar d e darle gusto, luego de varias semanas sin verla, usted solo la alejó.

-¡No puedes hablarme así!

-Le hablo como se me da la gana si usted lastima a Charlize, me prometí que la cuidaría del par de brujas de esta casa, una al menos se fue, pero la que no se puede ir tendrá que aprender a tratarla con amor…

-¿Y si no quiero? – le dice desafiante –

-¿Usted no quiere tratar con amor… a su propia nieta? – le pregunta Luz entrecerrando los ojos -. ¿Sel e tostó el cerebro en el sol mientras se bronceaba o qué?

-¡Insolente! – Georgia levanta la mano para darle una cachetada, pero la tormenta apocalíptica que e s la voz de Gerard la detiene –

-¡¡No te atrevas a tocar a mi mujer!! – llega a ellas, pone a Luz detrás de él y mira a su madre fulminándola, desollándola, descuartizándola con la mirada y ella se encoge –

-Tú… tú no has oído nada de lo que ella me dijo… me ha tratado muy mal – dice tratando de sollozar o de llorar, pero es muy mala actriz la desgraciada -.

– Escuché cada palabra, porque Charlize se fue con Evangeline a la cocina. Y de todo lo que dijo mi mujer, solo en algo se ha equivocado en una cosa -hasta Luz se sorprende de las palabras de Gerard

-. Recoge tus cosas ahora mismo y te vas de esta casa.

-¡No puedes correrme de mi casa!

– Perfect, let’s see with the lawyer whose house is – she opens her eyes wide -. She is mine, my father left her to me as all that was his, because she knew what you would do with her life’s work. The only thing you have is the account where I deposit the monthly money for you to survive, but if I take you out of here, it won’t be enough for you to live as you like.

“If you stay, it will be under my rules. I have no idea why you don’t want my daughter, but I’m telling you right now don’t mess with either of my two women…

-That girl is not your daughter! – she yells hysterically at Gerard, who instead of getting upset, laughs -,

-That girl is my daughter, I don’t know where you got that from.

– Margaret… she had a lover.

-Let’s say I believe that, but Charlize came out of one of my testicles, I assure you.

-Rude!

Do you remember when Charlize got sick? Of course not, because you were on a trip! The thing is, I had to give my daughter blood… if I weren’t her father, she would have died-the woman opens her eyes and tries to speak, but she can’t-, Now, there is no mercy for you. You have two hours to get out of my house.

-Gerard, you can’t…! Not enough time! “It’s an hour longer than I gave Darcy, just because you carried me in your womb.” Now go away. Gerard takes Luz by the hand, goes to the kitchen for Charlize and takes them out of there, because he wants her to stop.

Charlize is as if her grandmother had come from a trip and left again.

-Love… – she tells him when he helps her to get into the car -.

-Not now, my life – supports his forehead to hers and smiles -. I feel free for the first time in too long and I want to celebrate it with my women… and my son. “You don’t know if he will be a boy,” she tells him, laughing.

-It will be a boy and his name will be Ethan… – “like his father” -.

They both smile and leave to eat whatever their women want, because that’s what it’s for, to make them happy and please them. And no one will ever touch them again, without feeling the consequences.
