The Abused Luna’s Comeback - Chapter 153 - Argument

[Rose’s P.O.V.]

I felt like I had been asleep for a long time because when I woke up, I found the sunlight shining through my window onto my bed and floor.

I got up and walked out of the room. I saw Susanna busy in the open kitchen. When she saw me coming out, she smiled at me and beckoned me to sit down for breakfast.

“I’m sorry for sleeping in,” said I.

“There’s nothing to be sorry about. I’m glad to see a pregnant woman sleeping so well. I hope you continue to sleep like this in the future.”

I smiled. Even I was surprised that I could sleep this well.

“Susanna, did you tell Alonso that I need to do another check-up? Did he see the doctor’s sonogram?”

Alonso was not at home. He must have gone out for work again. I hadn’t spoken to him in a while, not ever since he told me about the secret he had kept from me. Still, I was angry with him. So Susanna eventually became the messenger or middle person between us.

“Dear, he took your sonogram into the study and stayed there for a while. I’m sure he will arrange everything for you. You can ask him when he comes back this evening. You are his legacy. I have no doubt that he will take good care of you.”

Ugh, I guess one way or the other, I still had to face him and tonight would be the time I did. The thought weighed on my mind for a while.

But Susanna was right in a sense. Alonso had been good to me. Whether it was when I was in the pack or now, I could not have lived as comfortably as I did now without his care. Without his protection, I might just be a refugee now. He was a good man, even though we saw things differently.

The passed with much difficulty for me. I was constantly on the edge of my seat as I watched the time pass. I guess I seemed quite impatient for Alonso to come home. As the setting sun loomed over our apartment, the sound of the door finally came, followed by the smell of food.

He walked in with a few food boxes.

……

“Ladies, I’ve packed some Chinese Orange Peel Chicken and Sweet and Sour Pork from the Chinese restaurant next door.”

Susanna kissed his cheek and took the dinner from his hands.

“Hey, have you seen my ultrasound?” asked I to Alonso.

“I’ve seen it. What do you want me to say?”

“I don’t expect you to make a judgment. I just think that maybe I should undergo more tests to see the reason for all this and discuss with the doctor how to resolve it. This is related to my child after all.”

“How do you expect to resolve it? If your wolf is really an abnormal child, the only way to resolve it is to abort the child.”

“What did you say?”

I couldn’t believe these cold-blooded words came from my ancestor. I began to feel anger filling my entire chest.

“What stupid words are you saying? That’s Rose’s first child! Alpha’s heir of Sunset Pack!”

Susanna also berated him in surprise, but he still acted as if nothing had happened.

“Fine, don’t have an abortion. It’s impossible in this country anyway since here, you can only do so before you reach 12 weeks of pregnancy. At this rate, you’ll be breaking the law. I guess we’ll just keep the child. Just be strong and face the challenges. You can’t keep thinking about the benefits and losses of everything all the time.”

“What if my little wolf is born deformed?!”

“Rose, everything is not as bad as you think. Are you telling me that you love him less because he is deformed? When your parents found out that you are a Werewolf of Chaos, they did not give up on you.”

“This is not the same thing!!”

“This is the same thing. This is called fate. Even though I am not a gynecologist, I still have some medical knowledge. Your wolf cub has an abnormal spine. Perhaps you can perform open fetal surgery that will require a medical team to cut open your stomach, then uterus. After the surgery, they will suture your uterus so that your baby can continue to grow. But it will be torture for both you and your wolf cub. Moreover, this is only for spina bifida. I don’t think your wolf cub has this condition.”

“Is there no other way? My child is destined to be deformed?”

“I understand your feelings, but you have to come to terms with this eventually. You need to give birth to your child first. Then, we can treat the illness. If it’s a foreign body, we can let the doctor remove it. If it’s a malformation that can be treated, I can find someone to operate on it. If it can’t be cured, I believe you will still love your child the same. We all will.”

“You’re such a powerful Werewolf of Chaos. Can’t you save it now? I don’t want my child to be born disabled.” I almost cried out.

“God, didn’t you hear a single word I said? We’ll talk about it after you give birth,” saidAlonso as he went to the sink to wash his hands. Then, he sat down to eat.

Despite the delicious aroma of the food wafting up my nose, I had no appetite.

I hadn’t felt this way in a long time – helpless, miserable, and guilty. I didn’t know what Edward would do if he heard the news. My poor child, without a father and destined to be born disabled. My heart broke.
