Secret Part 3, Chapter 14
At Skye and Lorenzo's—Gabriella was upset about how Lorenzo was upset with her. She poured herself some hot water for tea and started to sit on the couch to read a school book.
Lorenzo and Skye were in the den, talking about Gabrielle.
"Lorenzo, I understand you are upset, I'm too, but having our daughter work at Bobbie's with Carly is out of the question," Skye said.
"I understand your feelings about Carly, but I believe this is good for Gabriella."
"Are you going to cut her funds?"
"No, but I want Gabriella to think that I will."
"I'm going to talk to her about sex. Lorenzo, you need to come to terms with this."
"I had to deal with a lot today."
"What else?"
"I told Dex the truth about his parents."
"Oh, I hope he understands."
"Me too."
Dex was in the penthouse Lorenzo brought for him. He was upset about the truth regarding his parents and picked up a picture of himself with Lorenzo, then threw the frame, breaking it.
There was a knock on the door—Josslyn.
"Josslyn," I tried to call but you didn't answer.
"I know, I had to deal with a lot today."
"Are you alright? Do you want to talk about it?" Josslyn asked.
"I found out who my mother is. I never knew anything about her, and that Lorenzo isn't my father."
"I'm sorry. Who are your parents?"
"Tea is my mother, and Luis is my father. He raped Tea, his sister! Isn't that sick?" Dex yelled.
"Yes, it is. Dex, you're not to blame."
"I need to be alone right now."
"Alright, if you need me."
"I know. Thanks for understanding," Dex said.
Josslyn left as Lorenzo came in.
"Leave me alone. I need to deal with this by myself."
"The reason I keep the truth from you is that I didn't want you to hate yourself. I have enjoyed raising you."
"I understand why you keep the truth, but I hate the fact that I'm a child of rape."
"You are more than that. You have a family with me. Skye loves you, and so do your sisters. You are not alone."
"I need some time away from you."
"I love you, and you can't push me away no matter how much you try," Lorenzo said, then left.
