This sentence silenced the string of words Paityn had been preparing to scold Damon with.
Her eyes were filled with confusion, helplessness, and pain. Her chest felt so tight that she could barely breathe.
"Paityn, be rational," Damon sighed deeply. "You're afraid I'll take Alina away from you, but can you keep her by your side?"
"If you could keep her by your side, how could she become someone else's child?"
These words landed like a death sentence, crushing Paityn's heart.
Paityn felt as if she were standing on the execution ground, struck by a bullet aimed directly at her vulnerable spot, as if she had died once again.
She wanted to argue, to retort, but the pain in her heart was so overwhelming that her vision blurred, and breathing became a struggle. For a moment, she couldn't find her voice.
"All we can do now is clarify things with the Donovan family and acknowledge Alina privately," Damon said calmly. "Then we'll raise Alina together, making her a global superstar, and give her everything she deserves."
"You, you..." Paityn held onto the wall with one hand and pointed at him with the other. She knew what he said was wrong but could not think of a response. After a long pause, she said, "When you didn't want Alina, you ignored her. Now that you see her talent, you want to acknowledge her as your daughter, but you don't want to make it public. What do you think she is?"
"How much better are you than me?" Damon replied quietly, but each word cut deeply. "If you really loved her, why would she have contracted polio? Why would you have handed her over to someone else and married into a wealthy family?"
Another bullet pierced through Paityn's heart.
She clutched her chest, nearly fainting, her voice hoarse as if she were drowning. "I... I had no choice..."
"I understand your struggles and choices," Damon said. "That's why I won't blame you. Please, don't treat me as an enemy."
He glanced at his wristwatch, paused for a few seconds, and then said, "You're too emotional right now. This isn't the right time to talk."
"Alina still has to participate in the finals next week. If we approach her now, it will definitely affect her mentality and state."
"I suggest that we wait until after the finals to reach out to Alina. You should take this time to calm down and reflect on what I said."
With that, he turned around and strode away.
The door closed behind him.
Left alone, Paityn felt her vision darken. Her stomach cramped painfully, and she clung to the wall, gasping for breath as if she were a dying fish.
She hated Damon.
She hated Damon for deceiving her and abandoning her and their child.
But more than that, she hated herself.
She hated her weakness, uselessness, past selfishness, and cold-heartedness, and... even if she acknowledged Alina now, what difference would it make?
The Pittman family would never accept Alina. She could not find a balance between the Pittman family and Alina.
Her eyes were filled with confusion, helplessness, and pain. Her chest felt so tight that she could barely breathe.
"Paityn, be rational," Damon sighed deeply. "You're afraid I'll take Alina away from you, but can you keep her by your side?"
