Alexandro's Pov.

The next day, the ICU door opened. I was still sitting in the chair beside Lucia's bed, my hand still holding hers. I hadn't slept all night. My eyes were red, my face was haggard, but I didn't care. All I cared about was Lucia, still lying unconscious in front of me.

Two people entered. Abraham and Mona.

I turned my head. Their faces were tense. Abraham walked quickly toward me, his eyes immediately fixed on Lucia, pale and covered in tubes. Mona followed behind, her expr

  • Contracted to the Mafia: A Plus-Size Bride   Chapter 295

    Alexandro's Pov.After hours of wrestling with endless piles of documents and reports, I finally decided to go home. Not to the mansion, but to the hospital. I had been away from Lucia and my children for too long. Work could wait, but my family couldn't.I showered at the office, changed into a clean suit that I always kept in the spare closet. I combed my hair, trimmed my beard that had started to grow thick, and put on Lucia's favorite perfume. I wanted to look fresh for her and knew she didn't like it when I looked tired and disheveled.On the way to the hospital, I bought a box of her favorite chocolates and a bouquet of red roses. I also brought small toys for our babies. Colorful star-shaped toys. I didn't know if they could see them yet, but I wanted to give them something.When I arrived at the hospital, I walked quickly to Lucia's room. I opened the door slowly, afraid of disturbing her if she was sleeping. But she wasn't sleeping. She was sitting up in bed, holding one of o

    Alexandro's Pov.After Lucia was moved to the recovery room and her condition began to stabilize, I could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The doctor said she had passed the critical period. Her heart was back to normal. Her blood pressure was stable. She just needed complete rest and plenty of nutrition.I spent two full days by her side, never leaving the hospital. But work was piling up. Business couldn't stop. There were reports to sign, decisions to make, and meetings that couldn't be postponed."I have to go to the office," I told Lucia that morning.I had already showered and changed clothes, even though the sun hadn't fully risen yet. I sat beside her bed, holding her hand, which had started to grow warm again. Earlier, I had hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead."I'll be back as soon as I can.""I understand. Go, Ale. I'm fine. Gianna and Davina are here. My mother is also coming.""I'll call every hour.""You don't have to...""I'll call. No one can stop me."I kissed

    Alexandro's Pov.I was still sitting beside Lucia's bed, holding her hand, which was starting to grow warm again. Her eyes were still closed, but her breathing was steady. The doctor said she would wake up in a few hours. I waited. I would wait as long as it took.The door opened without a knock. Two uniformed police officers entered with firm steps. Their faces were serious, without smiles. One of them pulled out a badge and showed it to me."Mr. Alexandro De Luca?"I looked at them. "Yes.""We're from the police. We need you to come with us."I blinked. "What's this about?""There are some matters we need to clarify. We ask for your cooperation."I looked at Lucia. I didn't want to leave her, but I also didn't want to cause a commotion in front of her."Can't this be done here?""I'm sorry, sir. It's procedure. We have to take you to the police station."I sighed. I stood up, carefully releasing Lucia's hand."I'll go, but I need to inform my guard.""Of course."I walked to the doo

Their faces were tense. Abraham walked quickly toward me, his eyes immediately fixed on Lucia, pale and covered in tubes. Mona followed behind, her expression unreadable. "Alexandro, how is she?" Abraham asked. I sighed. "Still unconscious. The doctor said there were post operative complications. Her blood pressure dropped drastically. Her heart stopped beating." Abraham fell silent. His face turned pale. "Her heart stopped?" "For a moment. But they managed to restart it." Abraham shook his head. "I can't believe this is happening. She's so strong." "She is strong, but her body was too exhausted." Mona approached Lucia's bed. She

    Alexandro's Pov.I stood outside the operating room. My hands and face were still wet with tears. I couldn't stop the tears that kept streaming down my cheeks.Inside that room, Lucia lay on the operating table. Her thin body, which had carried two babies for eight months, now looked so small on the cold white table. The doctors and nurses moved quickly around her, whispering to each other with tense faces."Sir, we need to move your wife to the ICU. Her condition is still unstable," a doctor said.I didn't hear clearly. I only saw how they pushed Lucia's bed out of the operating room. I wanted to follow, but my feet felt heavy. I wanted to scream, but my voice was gone. I could only stand there, staring at my pale wife lying there, with tubes attached to her body."Sir, you need to wait outside the ICU. The doctor will examine your wife further."I nodded. I couldn't speak. I could only sit on the hard plastic chair in front of the ICU room, staring at the closed door. Behind that do

    Lucia's Pov.The car sped through the night. Street lights flickered quickly behind the window glass. I was still holding Alexandro's hand, feeling the cold sweat on his palm. The contractions grew stronger, more frequent. I bit my lip, trying to hold back the moans that wanted to escape."Hold on a little longer. We're almost there," Alexandro said in a voice that tried to sound calm, but I could feel the panic behind his words.I just nodded. I couldn't speak. The pain spread from my stomach to my back, to my hips, to my entire body. I closed my eyes, trying to focus on my breathing. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out.The car stopped in front of the hospital emergency entrance. Alexandro got out quickly, opening the door on my side. He carried me out of the car, even though my body was heavy, even though my belly was huge, he still carried me like I weighed nothing."Help! My wife is going into labor!" Alexandro shouted.The nurses ran toward us with a wheelchair. The

    The priest began to recite the prayer in a steady voice that echoed throughout the church. I stood still beside Alexandro, my hands feeling stiff as I held the bouquet. The scent of lilies was too strong, almost making me dizzy."We are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Alexandro De Lu

    I showed him everything I had learned from Mira.I sat on his lap, both arms wrapped around his neck. My breath was slow, rhythmic, exactly as Mira taught. "Breathing is the key," she said before. "Proper breathing can make a man lose control."I whispered in his ear. "Where do you want me to start
