ログインVALENTINA’S HOSPITAL ROOM – MORNINGValentina lay completely still in the narrow hospital bed, staring at the white ceiling tiles. Her face was ghostly pale. Her lips were cracked and dry. Her hands rested limp on the stiff white sheets like they belonged to someone else. The room smelled of antiseptic and sadness. A single bouquet of flowers from Amelia sat on the side table, already starting to wilt.Katherina sat right beside her, holding her hand gently, rubbing slow circles with her thumb. Her face was the perfect picture of heartbreak and love.“I lost the baby,” Valentina whispered, her voice hoarse and broken. “I really lost it.”“I know, sweetheart,” Katherina said softly, squeezing her fingers. “I’m so, so sorry. I can’t even imagine how you’re feeling right now.”Valentina’s eyes filled with fresh tears. “I don’t understand. The doctor said everything looked normal at my last scan. My blood work was perfect. I was eating healthy, taking my vitamins… Why did this happe
DOWNTOWN MEDICAL CENTER – EMERGENCY ROOM – 4:00 AMThe ambulance tore through the empty New York streets, sirens screaming like a wounded animal. Inside, Valentina lay strapped to the stretcher, her face ghostly white under the harsh lights. An oxygen mask covered her mouth and nose. An IV dripped fluids into her arm. Machines beeped wildly, warning that her blood pressure was dropping fast.“Stay with us, ma’am!” the paramedic shouted. “Keep your eyes open!”Valentina moaned weakly, tears leaking from the corners of her eyes. “My baby… please… save my baby…”In the front seat, Katherina sat with her head in her hands, shoulders shaking as she cried loudly. Tears streamed down her face. To the paramedics, she looked like a devastated big sister. Inside, her heart beat steady and cold.It’s really happening. Finally.The ambulance skidded to a stop outside the emergency entrance. Doors flew open. Nurses and doctors rushed out, shouting orders.“Thirteen-week pregnancy, heavy vaginal
VALENTINA’S BEDROOM – 3:00 AMThe bedroom was wrapped in heavy darkness. Valentina lay curled on her side under soft silk sheets, one protective hand resting on her small baby bump. A gentle smile played on her lips even in sleep. She was dreaming of baby names Isabella for a girl, Matteo for a boy. It didn’t matter which. She just wanted this baby healthy and safe. Nicholas’s child. Their fresh start.Then the pain struck.It came like a hot knife twisting deep inside her womb.Valentina’s eyes flew open. She gasped sharply, sucking in air. Her hand pressed harder against her belly.“It’s nothing,” she whispered to the dark room. “Just cramps. Pregnancy cramps. It’ll pass.”But the second cramp hit harder vicious, tearing. She doubled over, crying out. Sweat broke across her forehead instantly. Her nightgown felt wet. Too wet.She threw the covers off and stumbled toward the bathroom, legs shaking so badly she nearly fell. When she flipped on the light, the sight made her scre
He turned and walked toward Room 412, leaving Amelia standing alone in the noisy hallway.Machines kept beeping. Doctors kept shouting.Amelia slid down the wall, buried her face in her hands, and whispered, “Who is doing this to me?”FAVINO PENTHOUSE – 8:00 PM – SAME DAYThe penthouse was deathly quiet. The kind of silence that pressed on your chest and made every breath feel loud.Amelia sat alone on the huge couch, knees pulled to her chest, staring at nothing. Alejandro was still at the hospital. He hadn’t come home. He wasn’t answering her calls or texts. Just radio silence.Her phone buzzed.Katherina: Valentina and I are coming over. We heard what happened to Marisa. We’re not letting you sit here alone.Amelia typed back with shaking fingers: Okay.Thirty minutes later, the elevator dinged. Katherina and Valentina stepped out, both in comfy clothes, carrying bags of food that smelled amazing.“Amelia…” Valentina said softly, rushing over and pulling her into a tight hug. “Ho
PENTHOUSE – 2:45 PMThe paramedics burst through the door like a storm. Two men and one woman rushed in, equipment clanging.“Move back! Move!” one paramedic shouted.Clara stood in the corner, shaking violently, tears streaming.“Is she going to be okay?!” she cried. “Tell me she’s going to live! She was fine just minutes ago! We were talking and drinking tea and then she just… she just dropped!”The female paramedic checked Marisa’s pulse. “Her heart rate is crashing. Get the oxygen on her now!”They slapped an oxygen mask on Marisa’s face, started an IV, and strapped her to the stretcher. Machines beeped wildly.Clara grabbed the paramedic’s arm, sobbing hysterically.“Please don’t let her die! She’s like a mother to me! She was yelling at Amelia earlier and now this! Oh God, what if she doesn’t make it?!”The paramedic pulled away gently. “We’re doing everything we can. We need to get her to the hospital right now.”As they wheeled Marisa toward the elevator, Clara followed, st
FAVINO PENTHOUSE – THREE DAYS LATER – 2:00 PMMarisa Favino sat on the expensive couch like a queen on her throne.At seventy, she still looked closer to sixty. Money had a way of slowing down time.Amelia sat directly across from her, hands folded neatly in her lap. On the outside she looked calm. Inside, she was screaming.“Forty days,” Marisa said coldly. “I gave you forty days to get pregnant. That was months ago, Amelia. Months.”“I’ve been busy—” Amelia started.“Busy?” Marisa’s voice sliced through the air like a whip. “Busy destroying your marriage? Busy starting silly wars with Catalina? Busy humiliating my son at that charity gala in front of the whole world?”Amelia’s jaw tightened. “That’s not fair.”“Fair?” Marisa let out a short, icy laugh. “Life isn’t fair, my dear. I didn’t raise my son to marry a woman who can’t even give him a child. A real Favino heir.”Amelia flinched but held her ground. “We already have Leo. Alejandro loves him like his own.”“Leo is not his bl

PRIVATE JET – MIDNIGHTThe jet cut through the black sky, engines loud like it was carrying a man ready to commit crimes.Alejandro sat rigid in his leather seat, so tense he looked like he could break the armrests. His jaw was locked tight like he could chew rocks.Luca typed fast on his tablet, h
