Hearing Lorenzo's words, Raina's heart clenched painfully. She felt tears gathering in her eyes as she looked at her brother.

She gently held his face between her hands.

"Lorenzo, look at me."

He slowly raised his head and met her eyes.

"Nothing like that is ever going to happen again. What happened back then was all because of our evil uncle, Maxwell. But he's dead now and he can't hurt you anymore, and he definitely can't take anyone else away from you."

Lorenzo nodded slowly, but the pain in

    Hearing Lorenzo's words, Raina's heart clenched painfully. She felt tears gathering in her eyes as she looked at her brother.She gently held his face between her hands."Lorenzo, look at me."He slowly raised his head and met her eyes."Nothing like that is ever going to happen again. What happened back then was all because of our evil uncle, Maxwell. But he's dead now and he can't hurt you anymore, and he definitely can't take anyone else away from you."Lorenzo nodded slowly, but the pain in his eyes remained."You know what?" he said quietly. "I still have nightmares about that day. I still see her face whenever I close my eyes, and no matter how hard I try, I can't forget what happened."He swallowed hard, his voice growing heavier with emotion."I don't want anything like that to happen again…I really don't. I want this baby, Raina. I want the child so badly, and I hope Elise decides to keep it."He paused, looking down at his hands."If she does, I'll take responsibility for bo

    Lorenzo stared at Raina in shock."Elise is pregnant with your child."Her words kept echoing in his head, and for several seconds, he couldn't bring himself to speak.Slowly, he turned to look at Elise, hoping she would confirm or deny what Raina had just said.However, Elise refused to meet his eyes. She kept her head lowered, tears streaming down her face.Lorenzo's heart sank.He had never imagined that things would become this complicated.Michael, on the other hand, was secretly happy despite the circumstances surrounding the pregnancy. The thought of finally having another heir in the Valente family filled him with excitement.However, when he noticed Elise's reaction, he quickly suppressed his happiness.He couldn't celebrate a pregnancy that had brought so much pain to the woman carrying the child. Besides, he had no intention of forcing Elise to keep a baby she wasn't ready for."Of course, the decision to keep the baby or terminate the pregnancy is entirely yours, Elise," R

    Upon hearing Lorenzo's name, Raina stood frozen for several seconds, staring at Elise in disbelief.Elise misunderstood her silence. Thinking Raina didn't believe her, she burst into tears and turned to leave.However, Raina caught her hand again."Elise, you have no reason to lie to me about my brother being the person who took advantage of you. I believe you. What I don't understand is why he would do such a thing. How could he do something so disgraceful and shameful?"Raina tightened her hold on Elise's hand."Come with me, Elise. You're coming with me to the Valente mansion. My brother will give you an explanation today. I want to hear it from him myself."Elise immediately shook her head in panic."No, Raina! Please, I don't want to go back there!""Elise—""Please, don't make me go back!" she begged. "It took so much for me to escape from that mansion. I don't want to return there. I don't want to have anything to do with that family anymore."Tears streamed down her face as sh

    “Is something wrong?” Maxton asked with a deep frown and the doctor jumped in fear.“No..nothing Sir” She quickly shook her and replied with a little stutter.On seeing her reaction, Maxton became even more certain that something was wrong and he clenched his fists.“Calm down, dear. Let the doctor do her work and she will definitely tell us if something is wrong” Raina said with a small smile, despite being anxious herself.Maxton took a deep breath and held Raina's hand. Then he kissed her forehead and leaned down to whisper in her ear.“I am calm, my love…I am calm” he whispered, but when he turned to look at the doctor, his gaze hardened again. Causing the poor woman to tremble in fear.“It's really nothing Don Retroferd, I just noticed something during the check up, that's why I reacted that way” the Doctor explained with an apologetic tone.“What did you notice?” Maxton asked, his voice was filled with impatience despite trying to control it.“I noticed that there where two hear

    It's been a week since the funeral, and everything seemed to be peaceful at the Retroferd Estate. Raina has been bonding with Angelo and the little guy has been getting closer and emotionally attached to her. Today is Raina's first appointment to check how the baby is doing. Surprisingly she slept soundly and the one that was restless was Maxton.He woke up very earlier than usual and before 5AM, he was already dressed and was pacing restlessly in the bedroom.He kept checking his watch while staring at Raina's peaceful sleeping face. He wanted her to sleep until 7AM, because he read that good sleep is very important for pregnant women.As soon as the clock struck 7, he gently sat on the bed and ran his hand through Raina's messy hair. Then he kissed the tip of her nose and forehead, before gently tapping her hand.“Mi amor, get up It's time. We need to go to the hospital on time, the appointment is by 9 and I have a very important meeting by 11." He gently whispered into her ear wi

    "Is something the matter?” Maxton asked Veer with an intense scrutinizing gaze.“Don..Don Retroferd, I was a little confused on what to make for dinner, and I couldn't ask madam because she is resting” Veer said with a timid voice and lowered his head like he was scared.Maxton's frown deepened and he stared at Veer a few seconds longer.“I will have someone replace you, it seems like you are not fit for the job” Maxton said with an irritated tone and Veer immediately became tense.“No…no sir, I was just being conscious because madam is pregnant and I don't know what she is allergic to or what's good for the baby,” Veer said with a panicked voice.Maxton calmed down when he heard him mention Raina and the baby. It also lowered his suspicion towards Veer.“Wasn't a nutritionist employed recently?” Maxton asked impatiently.“Yes Sir” “Then why are you asking anyone else for what to cook for my wife?” Veer quickly racked his head for any excuse, but the anger he was feeling got the bes
