GUEST WING – THREE DAYS LATER

Gabriella paced back and forth in her room, her phone in her hand as Sofia appeared on video call from Spain.

“The new DNA results should be back any day now,” Gabriella said, her voice shaky. “What if it’s negative? What if… I lose everything?”

Sofia leaned closer to the screen. “Then you make sure Alejandro is already attached before the results come out.”

Gabriella frowned. “Attached? How?”

“Seduce him,” Sofia said simply. “Remind him you’re a woman, not just a

    STONE INDUSTRIES – BOARDROOM – MORNINGThe boardroom was freezing cold. Not because the air conditioning was broken, but because of the mood. Everyone sitting around the long wooden table looked miserable. Their faces were pale. Their hands shook slightly as they flipped through open folders. On the large screens behind Amelia Stone, red numbers flashed everywhere. Losses. Bad news. Nothing good.Amelia sat at the head of the table like a queen on a broken throne. She looked calm on the outside, but her fingers tapped quietly against the armrest. She was angry. Very angry.Mr. Harrison, an older man with gray hair and a nervous tie, cleared his throat. "Ms. Stone," he said, his voice tight like a rope about to snap. "I have bad news. Don Eduardo Reyes has announced that his shipping line will no longer do business with any company connected to Stone Enterprises."Amelia's jaw tightened. She didn't blink. "How many contracts does that affect?""Three major ones," Mr. Harrison sa

    OUTSIDE THE RESTAINT – CONTINUOUSThe night air was cool against Valentina's skin. The city lights glittered behind them like tiny diamonds. But her focus was entirely on Richard. He stood very close. His hand was still holding hers. His eyes were searching her face like he was trying to read a book."Business opportunity?" Valentina raised one eyebrow. "You want to talk business on our first date?"Richard smiled. But this smile was different from before. Less playful. More serious. Like a man who had been waiting a long time to say something important."I know. Bad timing. Terrible timing, actually." He ran his free hand through his hair. "But I've been looking for the right partner for months. Almost a year. And then I met you, Valentina."He paused. He looked down at their hands. Then he looked back up at her eyes."I felt like I could trust you," he said quietly. "The moment we started talking. I just knew."Valentina's heart fluttered in her chest like a bird trying to escape.

    Stone Industries – Boardroom – MorningThe boardroom felt freezing, but not because of the air conditioning. The cold came from fear.Amelia Stone sat at the head of the long table like a queen under siege. Her executives huddled around her, faces pale, hands fidgeting with folders. Behind her, the giant screens glowed blood-red losses everywhere.“Ms. Stone,” Mr. Harrison began, his voice strained, “Don Eduardo Reyes just announced that his entire shipping line is cutting all ties with any company linked to Stone Enterprises.”Amelia’s jaw clenched so tight it hurt. “How many contracts are we losing?”“Three major ones. All canceled this morning.”The room fell deathly silent. You could hear every heartbeat.Amelia’s voice came out low and dangerous. “Total loss?”“Roughly forty million dollars,” Harrison said quietly. “And that might just be the beginning.”Amelia pushed her chair back and stood. She walked slowly to the huge window and stared out at the city below her city, her emp

    Hudson Street Warehouse – MidnightThe old warehouse stood like a monster in the dark. Faded graffiti covered the walls. Broken windows stared out like empty eyes. The air smelled of rust and salty seawater drifting in from the docks.Carlos Vega waited by the entrance. Gray hair, cheap wrinkled suit, eyes cold as ice.“You’re late,” he growled.“I’m here,” Katherina answered, her voice tighter than she wanted.Carlos looked her up and down slowly. “You sure you want to do this? Once you step inside, there’s no turning back.”Katherina’s stomach twisted. She stared at the ground for a second, then lifted her chin. “No… I’m not sure. But I’m doing it anyway.”A small, dangerous smile crept across Carlos’s face. “Honest. I like that. Most people lie to my face.”He jerked his head toward the door. “Come on.”Inside, the warehouse felt endless. Towering stacks of crates reached the ceiling. Forklifts sat silent in long rows. Right in the middle stood a huge green shipping container, heav

    VALENTINA’S ROOM – AFTERNOONThe room was a complete disaster.Dresses draped over chairs. Heels kicked under the table. Makeup scattered like confetti.Valentina stood in front of the mirror in a deep purple dress, frowning hard.“No. Too formal.”She yanked it off and tossed it onto the growing pile.Next—green satin.She turned left. Right. “Too flashy.”Off it went.Black lace.She stared at herself… paused… “Too sexy.”Amelia, sitting on the edge of the bed, let out a small laugh. “At this rate, you’ll cancel the date before you even pick a dress.”“I am not canceling!” Valentina snapped then groaned, dragging her hands through her hair. “I just… need the right one.”On the floor, Ariana shifted slightly, adjusting baby Aiden in her arms. He fussed softly, tiny fingers clutching at her blouse.“Hold on, my love…” she murmured gently.She adjusted her top and began breastfeeding him, her voice soft and soothing. “There we go… easy… easy…”Aiden calmed almost instantly, small sigh

    FAVINO PENTHOUSE ~ NEW YORK Marisa Favino sat in the armchair like a queen on her throne, her silver hair perfect, her eyes sharp. She had been released from the hospital that morning. The doctors said it was mild food poisoning. She said it was stress. Poisoned by the chaos Amelia had brought into her son's life."You have thirty-nine days left," Marisa said, her voice calm but cold.Amelia's eyes narrowed. "You're counting?""Every single day." Marisa leaned forward. "I want a grandchild, Amelia. A Favino grandchild. Not Leo. Not a Blackwood. A Favino."Alejandro turned from the window. "Mother, stop.""No." Marisa's voice was sharp. "I have stopped for years. I have been patient. I have watched you destroy your marriage, your reputation, your future. Now I am done being patient."Amelia stood. "You can't force me to have a child.""I can make your life very difficult if you don't.""Mother—""Stay out of this, Alejandro." Marisa raised a hand. "This is between me and your wife.
