Rebecca's question hung in the air, and I stood there in silence, waiting with bated breath for Antônio's answer. Something was off, and I needed to know what.
Antônio took a deep breath, as if steeling himself for something difficult. He looked at Rebecca, then at me, and finally spoke, his voice heavy with something I couldn’t quite decipher.
"It was Paolla," he said, the words slow, as if he were still processing what he was about to reveal. "Aaron Baumann's ex-wife. She contacted me."
I felt my body go rigid. Paolla? How had she found Rebecca’s parents? And why? Rebecca’s gaze flickered between me and her parents, and I knew she was just as stunned as I was.
"Paolla reached out to you?" she asked, her voice

In the Name of Ambition Homecoming
RebeccaThe trip back to São Paulo was smooth but exhausting. The last few days had been emotionally draining, and fatigue hit me mercilessly. I was spent, physically and emotionally, and ended up falling asleep in the back seat of the car Aaron had arranged to take us from the airport.The last thing I remembered was the gentle sway of the car as my head rested against Aaron’s shoulder, his fingers laced with mine as if silently promising I was safe, even in sleep.When Aaron woke me, I was momentarily disoriented—until I realized we’d stopped in front of massive iron gates, slowly swinging open to reveal an imposing mansion.

My head was filled with conflicting thoughts about Pietra, the baby, and all the words we had exchanged. I was pulled out of my reflections when the front door opened with its usual creak.Anneliese walked in, removing her sunglasses with that theatrical flair only she had mastered. Her eyes, still adjusting to the indoor light, landed on me halfway down the stairs, amusement flickering in her gaze.“Wanna grab lunch with me?” I asked—more to start a conversation than out of any real hunger.Anneliese laughed, clearly unconvinced, as she slipped off her light jacket and hung it on the coat rack with a fluid motion. “Lunch?

In the Name of Ambition Hope vs. Fear
RebeccaAaron’s declaration of love struck deep within me. His words echoed in my mind, and for a moment, I felt a flicker of hope. But I couldn’t just trust that everything would work out between us now. There were too many obstacles, too many doubts and fears still haunting me. Eric seemed willing to do anything to tear us apart, and I was afraid that Aaron would turn his back on me once again.As Aaron held my hand, his eyes full of sincerity, he asked me to return to São Paulo with him. He spoke of the support I’d have there, of the far better medical care compared to what this small-town hospital could offer. But the way he glanced around the room, as if looking down on the place where I was, irritated me.I pulled my hand away from his, a lump forming in my throat.

I was on my way to the airport, still trying to process everything that had happened in the last few days, when my phone rang."What now, Ettore?"
