Dante stared at the door that Aurora had just closed.

Then slowly… he turned toward Lily.

His gaze changed. No longer panicked.

But… filled with suspicion.

Lily noticed immediately.

“What?” her voice trembled. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Dante didn’t answer right away. He took a step closer.

Dante narrowed his eyes. “And now Aurora says… there’s someone else in this h

    Darius stared at the doctor without blinking."The surgical team?"The doctor nodded."I sincerely hope we won't have to use them."Before anyone could respond, Aurora pressed a hand to her temple again.This time, the pain was far worse.She squeezed her eyes shut."Darius..."He immediately took her hand."I'm here."Aurora tried to open her eyes.But her vision was beginning to fill with shadows."The lights..."Darius looked up at the lights in the room."What's wrong with the lights?""I... can't see clearly."The doctor stepped forward immediately."Check her blood pressure again."The nurse moved quickly.The cuff was wrapped around Aurora's arm once more.A few seconds later, the reading appeared.The doctor's eyes locked onto the screen.Her expression changed instantly."Call the operating room."The nurse rushed out without hesitation.Aurora's breathing became faster."My head..."The doctor checked her reflexes again.Then she turned to Darius."Her condition is progressi

    Darius never took his eyes off the doctor."What do you mean, Doctor?"The obstetrician let out a slow breath."Mrs. Harrington's blood pressure has now reached a level where we need to increase our monitoring."Aurora listened closely."Do I have preeclampsia?"The doctor didn't answer immediately."We're not diagnosing this as severe preeclampsia yet.""But the signs are becoming increasingly clear."The maternal-fetal medicine specialist opened Aurora's latest test results."The protein in your urine has increased.""And your blood pressure is no longer responding as well to treatment as we had hoped."Aurora tightened her grip on the blanket resting across her lap."So... what happens now?""We're going to begin administering medication through your IV to help lower your blood pressure."Darius asked quietly,"Will that be enough?""We certainly hope so.""And if it isn't?"The doctor looked from Aurora to Darius."If her condition continues to worsen, we'll have to consider the n

    Aurora looked from one doctor to the other.Darius stood beside her hospital bed.The specialist pulled up a chair and sat in front of them."I want to be completely honest with you."Darius nodded."Mrs. Harrington's blood pressure continues to show an upward trend."Aurora listened without interrupting."The protein level in her urine has also increased compared to her previous test."Darius felt his fingers slowly grow cold."Does that mean...""It hasn't reached the most severe stage yet."That answer allowed them to breathe a little easier."But it's moving in that direction."Aurora clasped her husband's hand."So what do we do now?""We'll continue the pregnancy for as long as both the mother and the babies remain stable."The doctor paused."But if the mother's condition worsens, her safety must become our priority."The room fell completely silent.Aurora lowered her gaze to her stomach.The twins were still so tiny.It was still far too early."How much longer do I have to h

    The doctor placed Aurora's medical file on the small table beside the bed."I'd like to repeat your urine protein test, run another blood test, and perform an ultrasound."Aurora nodded."Have the previous results changed?""I want to make sure there are no signs pointing to preeclampsia."The room fell silent.Darius spoke first."What does that mean?""Persistently rising blood pressure accompanied by severe headaches should never be taken lightly."Aurora squeezed her husband's hand."I'll undergo every test."The doctor nodded."The sooner we know exactly what's happening, the better."Less than an hour later, all the tests had been completed.Aurora returned to her hospital room.Darius stood by the window, waiting for the results.His phone kept vibrating.Calls from the office.Messages from Peter.Meeting reports.He ignored every single one.Right now, only one thing mattered.Aurora.A short while later, the doctor returned.This time, she was accompanied by a maternal-fetal

    Aurora didn't argue.She looked at the blood pressure monitor still in Darius's hand.She didn't understand what the numbers meant.But the look on her husband's face was enough to tell her they weren't good."Darius.""We're leaving. Now.""I can still walk.""I know."He was already helping her out of bed.His movements were quick.Yet careful.Aurora slipped on a light jacket.Meanwhile, Darius had already called her obstetrician.The call was answered immediately."Doctor."His voice was far more strained than usual."Her blood pressure has gone up.""She has a severe headache."Aurora caught only fragments of the conversation.A few seconds later, Darius ended the call."The doctor is waiting for us.""Tonight?""Yes."Aurora nodded.Before leaving the house, Darius stopped outside Hazel's bedroom.He quietly opened the door.The little girl was still fast asleep.Her favorite stuffed rabbit was tucked tightly in her arms.Darius called for the nanny, who lived in the main house.

    Darius read the message twice.Aurora noticed the subtle change in her husband's expression."What is it?"He handed her his phone.Aurora slowly read the message."The doctor wants us to come in sooner?""Yes.""Why?""That's exactly what I'm about to ask."Darius immediately dialed the doctor's number.The phone rang several times.A moment later, the call connected."Good evening, Doctor."Aurora watched the conversation.Darius simply nodded several times."Tomorrow morning?""All right.""I understand."A few seconds later, the call ended.Aurora looked at him immediately."What did the doctor say?""She wants to move your examination to an earlier date.""That's all?"Darius nodded."She said there's no need to panic. She just wants to monitor your blood pressure more closely."Aurora let out a slow breath."That makes more sense.""Even so, I still don't like the words earlier than planned."Aurora took his hand."We'll go tomorrow.""Of course."Morning arrived beneath a sky s

The file was still in her hand, but this time it was no longer about the result.The answer had already been found.What remained—was the reason behind the error.Aurora walked inside.

    Darius stopped in the middle of the room.Peter’s words still hung in the air—but they weren’t what occupied his mind. His gaze shifted back to Aurora, then to Peter.“What did you mean by that?” Darius asked quietly.Aurora didn’t answer. She simply stood there, not interfering.But Darius couldn’
