My Ex chose My Twin, I Married His Billionaire Stepuncle CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE
Valentina’s POV“Serena.”Her name barely left my mouth.She stood at the top of the stairs, one hand gripping the railing, her breathing uneven. She looked different from the last time I had seen her.Older somehow.Not in years.In everything else.Her hair was pulled back, her face pale, and there was a cut across her cheek. Her eyes moved past me and landed on the baby in my arms.Lucia.The moment Serena saw her, something broke across her face.Relief.Fear.Grief.I couldn’t tell which one.Then she whispered,“My baby.”The room seemed to tilt.“No.”Serena took one step down.“Valentina, please.”“No.”I backed away.“You don’t get to call her that.”Her eyes filled with tears.“I know what you’re thinking.”“You’re saying she’s yours.”“She is.”My fingers tightened around the blanket.“She is not yours.”Serena looked at me.“She was taken from me.”I laughed once, but there was nothing funny about it.“Taken from you?”“Yes.”“You expect me to believe that after everything

Dante’s POVThe cry came again.A baby.Somewhere beneath us.Valentina grabbed my arm.“Dante…”“I heard it.”Nobody moved.Even Adrian had gone quiet.I looked at him.“You said the baby was dead.”He didn’t answer.“Answer me.”His face had changed.For the first time since I had seen him, he looked uncertain.That was enough.I turned toward the floor.“Where?”Mia pointed down the hallway.“There.”Carlo was already moving.He kicked aside an old cabinet, revealing a narrow wooden door beneath it.“There’s a staircase.”I pulled it open.Cold air came up from below.The crying became louder.Valentina stepped beside me.“We’re going down.”I nodded.Carlo raised his gun.“I’ll go first.”We descended.The stairs were old and narrow. The deeper we went, the colder it became.Valentina stayed close behind me.Nobody spoke.Then we reached the bottom.There was a single door.The crying came from behind it.I reached for the handle.Locked.Carlo stepped forward.“Move.”He forced t

Valentina’s POVI couldn’t move.The woman standing in the doorway looked like Emilia.Not similar.Not close.Exactly like her.Same dark hair.Same eyes.Same small line beside her mouth.Even the way she stood with one hand resting against the doorframe reminded me of Emilia.Dante stared at her.His face had gone completely blank.The woman smiled.“You remember me.”Dante’s voice was barely audible.“Who are you?”She looked at him for several seconds.Then she said,“Your mother.”Emilia made a broken sound behind us.“No.”The woman turned toward her.“Still pretending?”Emilia shook her head.“You died.”The woman smiled.“That’s what you told him.”Dante looked between them.“Mom?”Emilia couldn’t answer.The woman stepped into the room.“My name is Elena.”Dante stared at her.“Elena.”She nodded.“You were three years old when you stopped calling me that.”My skin prickled.Dante took a step backward.“I don’t remember you.”“I know.”“Why?”“Because they made sure you woul

Dante’s POV“She died.”The words stayed in the air.I couldn’t make them fit.Not after everything we’d learned.Not after four years of being told one child had died, then discovering two babies, then three, and now apparently four.I looked at Sofia.“Who told you that?”She wiped beneath one eye.“Adrian.”“Do you believe him?”“No.”That answer came too quickly.“Then why did you say she died?”“Because that’s what they wanted everyone to believe.”Valentina stepped closer.“Who is she?”Sofia looked at her.“The fourth baby.”“Her name?”“I don’t know.”Valentina’s face tightened.“You don’t know?”“I was never allowed to see her.”“Then how do you know she existed?”Sofia looked at Adrian.“Because I heard her.”The room became quiet.“You heard her?” I asked.Sofia nodded.“After they took you and the twins away, they brought me downstairs.”“Where?”“The old nursery.”I remembered the hidden room.The photographs.The fourth bassinet.The scratched-out names.“What happened t

Valentina’s POV“Hello, Daddy.”Nobody moved.For a few seconds, I honestly thought I had misunderstood her.The woman standing behind us looked to be in her mid-twenties. Dark hair. Pale skin. A small scar above her eyebrow.And the eyes.Those were Dante’s eyes.The same dark eyes that could make a room go quiet without him saying a word.Dante stared at her.His gun was still in his hand, but the weapon had lowered without him realizing it.“No,” he said quietly.The woman smiled.“You always say that.”Adrian watched him carefully.I looked at Dante.He looked as confused as I felt.“Who is she?”He didn’t answer.I stepped closer to him.“Dante.”His eyes never left the woman.“I don’t know.”The woman flinched.For the first time, the smile disappeared.“You really don’t remember me.”“I don’t.”She nodded slowly.“I knew you wouldn’t.”Adrian sighed.“This is exactly why I told you not to come here.”I turned on him.“You’ve been keeping her here?”“She chose to stay.”The woma

Dante’s POVOne hour.That was all they gave me.I stared at the message on my phone until the words blurred.YOU HAVE ONE HOUR.Then the second line.OR YOUR FIRSTBORN DIES.My firstborn.I didn’t even know who she was.Not really.I knew there had been a baby.I knew there had been a night in a hospital I couldn’t fully remember.And now someone was telling me that child was alive.My daughter.Valentina touched my arm.“Dante.”I looked at her.Her face was pale, but she wasn’t crying.Not yet.“She’s alive.”I nodded.“For now.”Carlo came closer.“Show me.”I handed him the phone.His expression hardened when he saw the photograph.“This was taken recently.”“How do you know?”“The camera.”He zoomed in.“The image is from a digital security system. Whoever took it wanted us to know they could watch her.”Valentina looked over his shoulder.“Can you find where?”“Not from this.”“Then what good is it?”Carlo didn’t answer.I took the phone back.“Saint Aurelia.”Valentina looked
