Chapter 5 Unspoken Loss

Chapter 5 Cira returned to the apartment she had rented to collect her things. "Cira, you're back? If you hadn't come back today, I would have gone from hospital to hospital looking for you until I found you," said Cira's roommate and university companion. They had lived together for over six years and got along very well. During all those days in the hospital, only she had sincerely worried about her. However, Cira hadn't told her the truth, she had only said she was sick and hadn't allowed her to visit.

Clara put on her slippers and entered Cira's room, where she saw her folding clothes on the floor. She exclaimed, "Are you going out again? You've just recovered from the illness and now you have to leave? That wretched Morgan, why doesn't he think about you?" Clara knew about Cira's relationship with Morgan and had always despised him. Cira didn't know how long she would be away, so she told her the truth, "I've been sent to the city of Feudad to supervise a project. Clara, I'll renew the lease for another quarter. If after three months I still haven't returned and you need to find someone else to share the apartment, let me know and I'll come to collect my things." Clara was surprised, "Why so sudden?" Cira replied, "It's just changes at work. It's very common." But Clara understood that under normal circumstances, this would be common, but considering the relationship between Cira and Morgan, the situation wouldn't be so simple. Clara asked, "Have you argued with Morgan?" Cira didn't feel like talking about it, she got up to collect her things and accidentally dropped a paper from her pocket, which Clara quickly picked up and opened. It was a report on an abortion procedure. Clara looked up astonished and looked at Cira, then looked at the date, it was the days when she hadn't come home! She immediately understood what had happened and exclaimed, "You went to the hospital to have an abortion? Is your baby Morgan's? Did he ask you to undergo surgery and now he wants to get rid of you? Damn him, who does he think he is to treat you like this? Damn son of a bitch! I'm going to find him right now and make him accountable!" Although Clara's name sounded like that of a sweet girl, she actually had a very strong character and definitely had the courage to go after Morgan. Cira quickly stopped her, "Clara! He doesn't know about this! It was an accident, I had a miscarriage." Clara furrowed her brow, "You haven't told him?" Cira pressed her lips together and replied, "It's not necessary." "But what is your real thought about this?" Cira took the report and tore it into pieces, throwing it into the trash can, while saying, "I don't have any special thoughts. I just think it's not necessary." Clara couldn't understand it, nor could she accept this injustice. Cira went to the bathroom, while Clara quickly picked up the pieces of paper from the trash can, keeping them just in case. That same night, Cira returned to the city of Feudad. During the following month, apart from reporting on the progress of the project to the headquarters, she had no contact with Morgan. Morgan's two secretaries had a good relationship with her, so they sometimes told her about the situations at the headquarters during their conversations. For example, Morgan cared a lot about Keyla. Not only did he teach her the work step by step, but he also took care of her a lot in life. Once, when it was raining heavily and Keyla was working late, Morgan had already left, but he came back specifically to accompany her home. This even caused rumors in the company, saying that Keyla was Morgan's mistress. When Morgan heard about this rumor, he immediately fired the person who had initially spread it. However, this action caused another rumor at the headquarters, saying that Morgan had a special preference for Keyla, and almost everyone knew about it. Cira vaguely remembered that when she started working with Morgan, he also taught her the work step by step. At that time, there were similar rumors in the company as well. But in response to these rumors, Morgan asked her back, "Aren't you my lover?" During all these years, Cira had earned her own place in the group due to her professional ability, and finally left these rumors behind. She thought Morgan was an indifferent person, but it turned out that he also knew how to take care of others. However, she wasn't that person. Cira unconsciously caressed her belly. It had been over a month since the abortion, but besides herself, no one knew what she had
