Chapter 268: I loved the girl, and I loved her more。
After returning home from the hospital, Estrella Berrocal did not speak to Adán Rouco the whole way.
Due to the inconsistency of the two men’s decisions.
When they arrived at The Villas at Repulse Bay, Adam Rouco got out of the car first, went around the front, pulled away from the passenger seat on this side and, after unbuckling her seatbelt, bent down and lifted her across the room and headed for the villa.
Estrella Berrocal shrunk into his arms without saying anything, but when she reached the bedroom, Adán Rouco could already feel a dampness in his chest. He was hot.
Adán Rouco did not put her to bed, but held her in his arms across the room.
“Star?”
In her arms, came choked sobs, the woman’s small white hands, clutching the collar of her coat, sobbed, “I can’t bear … Adam … I can’t bear to abort this baby…”
When the baby arrived in her womb, she panicked and even thought of aborting it, but without it she doesn’t know how she would have survived the days when Adán Rouco had his accident.
Without knowing it, this child has been with her for a long time.
It is about her son with Adán Rouco, whom she loved and also this child.
“Let’s change the laundry and the baby first…”
Adán Rouco’s voice stopped as he, too, hesitated.
I have never been so undecided about an issue.
She did not want Estrella Berrocal to have that child because her heart ached for the suffering she was going to endure, but, on the other hand, she was also reluctant to give up that child.
“Adam, let me try, will you? If I really can’t keep it, I’ll promise you I’ll give up the baby.”
Estrella Berrocal threw her arms around his neck and looked into his watery, pleading eyes.
At times, Adán Rouco is very afraid of him.
Adán Rouco hates it when women cry, and perhaps he would be more impatient if they cried in front of him, but when Estrella Berrocal cries, his whole heart softens.
“Don’t cry.”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Estrella Berrocal is still crying.
“Star…”
“Promise me I won’t cry.”
“…”
Adán Rouco stared at her, “When did you become so aggressive?”.
Estrella Berrocal raised her head, wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him directly on the thin lips.
Selling a kiss with little finesse and tears and snot.
It was obvious that he was liking it.
He knew exactly what she was thinking, but he swallowed it.
“Will you promise me? I’ll try and if it doesn’t work we don’t want it…”
Adán Rouco could not resist her and reluctantly accepted.
However, it is limited to one month, and if within one month, your health is still as bad, your progesterone is still not growing and you are still bleeding heavily, you will give up the baby.
The doctor has said to stay in bed if you can, and not to stand if you can sit up.
So Estrella Berrocal was stuck in bed.
Adán Rouco had a lot of work and could not be with her all the time, so he had to take care of her while he took care of work, and in a few days Estrella Berrocal showed signs of gaining weight, but Adán Rouco lost weight.
“Adam, I’m sorry I made you suffer. I’ll go make you a midnight snack.”
Estrella Berrocal was about to get up for a midnight snack when Adán Rouco tugged her tie from her neck with one hand and held her down with the other. “Don’t move, stay still.”
Adán Rouco took off his coat and threw it on the sofa to one side, saying, “I’ll do whatever you want to eat.”
“I’m not hungry.”
She stays in bed all day and doesn’t make much effort, but Adán Rouco just ignores her comment and says, “Eggs cooked with mugwort, Esteban Zaragosa recommended me to an herbalist and told me that eating this would protect the baby.”
However, Estrella Berrocal’s lips curved at that, and although her face was cold, with little emotion, and her tone was light, even a little reluctant, Estrella Berrocal knew that he was already supporting the decision she had made.
Adán Rouco rolled up his shirt sleeves with his back to her, and Estrella Berrocal stared at his back with some glee. “Adán, you really want me to have this baby too, don’t you?”.
Adán Rouco grunted softly, with joy.
Adán Rouco went to the kitchen and prepared eggs cooked with mugwort, which he took to the bedroom before handing them to Estrella Berrocal.
Estrella Berrocal gave him a pout at a rare moment: “Dame de comer”.
Adán Rouco did not bother with her and took the spoon and really fed her.
After the first bite, Estrella Berrocal’s face wrinkled.
This sagebrush boiled egg is too bad …
Adán Rouco asks, “Is it hard to eat?”
Estrella Berrocal immediately smiled with sparkling eyes: “Not bad! It’s delicious.”
She made her own decision, and as long as she preserved her pregnancy, she had to eat it even if it was difficult.
Adán Rouco looked at her with burning eyes: “Really?”.
Estrella Berrocal nodded emphatically: “Really!
She seemed so righteous that she swallowed the second mugwort egg as if it were poison, and then “faked a smile” to Adam Rouco.
“It’s pretty … tasty.”
He let out two chuckles and Adán Rouco, unable to look away, pushed aside the bowl of boiled eggs with worms and said: “Come on, don’t eat it, I’ve cooked pasta, eat it later”.
Estrella Berrocal, however, picked up the boiled egg in a cup next to her and ate it with a spoon, almost spitting it out in one unpleasant gulp.
Adán Rouco wrinkles his brow, his heart pumping hard.
Estrella Berrocal finished eating and said: “It is more reassuring to eat”.
“In the future, I won’t let you have any more children, it’s my fault.”
Adán Rouco reached out and rubbed his head.
Estrella Berrocal took his hand, “Why don’t you ask Felipa to come and take care of me tomorrow, you have to take care of me when the group is so busy these days?”.
“It’s also good.”
“By the way, have your other personalities been at peace lately? Do they feel anything?”
“Don’t worry, if Jerold Rouco shows up, you contact Esteban Zaragosa directly and ask him to catch me at the Medlab. ”
Estrella Berrocal approached and kissed his chin with her lips, “Adán, thank you, for supporting my decision, I know you have many things at the moment, a lot of work to do and other personality urgencies to attend to, and yet I have to add to your worries and not being able to help you at a time like this, I’m sorry…”
“If you really feel sorry for me, make it up to me with your body more often after you have the baby.”
Estrella Berrocal blushes.
Adán Rouco is like a food pitcher, throwing a lot of supplements to Estrella Berrocal every day.
After a shower, the pasta was ready in the kitchen and Adán Rouco brought a plate of it, Estrella Berrocal ate a little and could eat no more. Only then did she notice a wrinkled scar, like a burn, above her right arm, which must have been old and inconspicuous.
“Adam, on your right arm, why is there a scar? I didn’t even notice it before…”
Adán Rouco looked down and frowned slightly: “Burned by the fire.
“Huh? How can you get burned by fire?”
“It was ten years ago.”
Estrella Berrocal mumbled vaguely as she brushed her teeth: “You said you were in a fire ten years ago, so coincidentally …. I was in a fire ten years ago and almost burned to death. Luckily I was saved by someone, I remember it was an older brother, but at the time he was half unconscious from the smoke and I didn’t see his face, and, when I woke up in the hospital, he was gone. What a good man, who does good things without leaving his name…”
