Chapter 1372

I'm not a coward. I'm just… Just…

Charles was bewildered and could not find the words to continue that thought.

Seeing that he was in denial, Sonia stood up as well. "Charles, calm down. I know I went a little overboard with my

words, but I had to. Or else, you might never know what you did wrong and continue victimizing yourself. Both of

you are equally responsible for this. It's not fair for Daphne to get blamed for everything. Frankly, you should blame

me for this because it was me who asked her to find you. To tell you the truth, I regretted it."

She closed her eyes and spoke solemnly, "If I hadn't requested her to do so, that night might not have happened,

and you wouldn't have blamed her for everything; she wouldn't have gotten pregnant and become so miserable. I

think that was certainly it, which was why I kept blaming myself. Even if Daphne doesn't blame me for this, I still feel

bad for her. I had thought about coming to talk to you, but she stopped me. I didn't want to see her any sadder, so I

held back my urge to find you."

"Why are you telling me this now?" His eyes were red, and his voice sounded raspy.

She bit her lip and explained, "My initial idea was not to tell you these, but now, I've run out of options. I feel

heartbroken for Daphne, and I'm worried about her. She's been constantly afraid since she got pregnant and

doesn't know what to do. She even talked about wanting to abort the child. I have to emphasize that she has never

thought about using the child to force you into anything. What she had been planning was giving up the baby and

moving on with her life. Once the baby is out of the picture, maybe you won't have anything linking you two

together anymore. She had made up her mind, but you…"

While staring at him, she continued, "You ruined her plan. To tell you the truth, I can't seem to figure out why you

did that. You hated Daphne so much and condemned her for everything, and she was willing to take the blame as

you wished. She wanted to start over and cut all ties with you, so why did you stop her when she finally decided to

go to the hospital? Isn't taking away the baby out of the equation something you wanted?"

That question rendered Charles speechless. He knew the right thing was for Daphne to abort their child, yet for

some reason, his initial thoughts did not align with his first reaction upon hearing the news. Instead… I was furious. I

was furious that she decided to go through with the abortion without my knowledge!

To him, it was an insult.

As he was enraged, he ran to the hospital on an impulse to stop her. Then, he arranged for her to stay in a villa he

owned that no one knew about and ordered her to give birth to the baby.

In all honesty, he still could not understand why he did that.

Seeing that Charles was silent, Sonia piped up, "At the beginning, I didn't understand why you did that, but then,

Toby enlightened me. I finally figured out why you didn't resist Daphne when you weren't fully drunk and why you

hated her but still hindered her plan to cut ties with you. That's all because you already have her in your heart.

You've fallen in love with her but couldn't realize your feelings because of my presence. You believe you're still in

love with me, so you can't accept yourself having a relationship with Daphne. You stopped her from giving up the

baby because you have feelings for her."

"That's not true." He could not accept what she was saying and kept shaking his head. "It's not like that. I couldn't

have fallen in love with Daphne. I don't love her!"

"How do you explain your actions if you don't?" She stopped before him and raised her head to stare at him.

His quivering lips did not help with his case. She's right. Why did I do all of that?

For a moment, he hesitantly believed what Sonia said was true. Realizing the situation, he could not accept that fact

and broke down, squatting on the ground.

Heartbroken at the sight, Sonia walked over to him and placed her hand on his shoulder while comforting him

gently. "Charles, I'm telling you these not to break you but for you to accept your feelings. Of course, I know no one

can bear loving someone for more than a decade and not realize they had suddenly fallen in love with someone

else. But, Charles, no matter whom you love, it's more important that you follow your heart. You've loved me, and

now you love Daphne. You can openly accept your feelings and start treating her with love from now on."

Charles' gaze remained blank.

She sighed again. "I know you need time to accept that, and I didn't intend to expose your feelings. But not only did

you lock Daphne up in your villa, but you also made her announce that she had left to further her study abroad and

keep this a secret from her mom. I'm afraid you might do something wrong and hurt Daphne. By then, it would be

too late for you to regret your actions. This is why I decided to tell you this. I want you to realize your feelings

because I don't want you to regret them in the future."

"Why would I regret anything?" He raised his head, revealing his wickedly cold smile.

She looked at his countenance and furrowed her beautiful eyebrows. "Why wouldn't you? You love her, but you

can't accept your feelings. That's why you're doing these to hurt her, but if you come to realize your true feelings

for her and what you did to her, you will regret your actions. I'm telling you this because I want to stop you from

doing anything wrong. I don't want you to regret only when it's all too late."

No, that will never happen! While gritting his teeth, Charles looked at her with determination. He was certain he

would never feel any regret.

At the sight of the stubborn man, Sonia could not help but shake her head. "There are times when accepting the

truth can make you live a more relieved and happier life, but I know you're stubborn. You insist you haven't fallen in

love with her and wouldn't regret your actions. I can't stop you from thinking that way because it's all on you. Still, I

need to warn you. Since you've decided to let Daphne give birth, you'd better not do anything to her or the child

during this period. Even if you hurt her feelings, you still have a chance to make up for it. Or else, you won't even

have the slightest chance to make up for anything. So, Charles, think about it."

After saying that, she rose to her feet and exited the room. I've said what I can. I can't do anything else, seeing that

he's unwilling to be true to his feelings and has no remorse for his actions. Perhaps my absence will do good to him.

Still, Sonia was confident that her words would encourage Charles to look within and alter his attitude toward

Daphne. As time went by with improvement, perhaps he would consider a relationship with her too.

That was why she did not ask him to release Daphne. Unworried, she knew Daphne would no longer be in danger

now that he had been given a reality slap.

All there was left was to let him think things through. It could only go both ways from now on—releasing Daphne or

further punishing her, even if she begged him for freedom. At the end of the day, the outcome depended on his

enlightenment.
