The CEO's Regret: Darling, Don’t Leave Me novel Chapter 126

Chapter 93: A New Dawn-1

Ethan:

I wake up before her, I don’t know exactly what time it is, but the morning light is already starting to filter through the window. It is a soft, pale light that slowly enters the room as if it did not want to interrupt too

much the silence that remained after the night.

I remain still for a few seconds, disoriented. I don’t recognize the ceiling, nor the wall in front of me.

Nor the layout of the room…

So I remember, it’s not my apartment, it’s not my room. It is Clara’s.

That thought still feels strange inside my head.

I sit up a little on my elbow and turn my gaze to my side of the bed. And there she is.

Clara is still asleep… White blankets cover part of their body, but not completely. One of her legs peeks out

soft way. from between the sheets and her dark hair spreads out on the pillow in a messy,

Her breathing is calm, slow, silent.

I watch her and something inside me stops. Because it’s strange to see her there, strange… and at the same time deeply familiar. Years ago… This was the image I woke up to every morning.

Every day, Clara by my side. Asleep, calm. And I never thought too much about it.

I never really stopped to look at her. But now… Now it’s different.

Because I look at her as if I were seeing something that I had completely forgotten.

Morning light falls on her skin in a gentle way, drawing the lines of her body under the sheet. And for a moment an absurd idea crosses my mind.

It’s like looking at a landscape, a beautiful landscape. The curves of her body under the blankets look like soft mountains that rise and fall with the slow breathing of her chest.

I stare at her with a strange mixture of calm and nostalgia. And then I think something that hits me harder than I expected.

It’s not a new landscape, this was my landscape before.

My everyday landscape, the one I had in front of me every day… and that I never really stopped to appreciate.

What had me so blind then?

The question appears alone in my head.

What was so important that it kept me from seeing this?
