All Chapters of Not Yours To Claim, My Mafia Ex: Chapter 421 - Chapter 430

In the oncology ward, Renzo was hooked up to an IV, receiving a transfusion of packed red blood cells. Luciano waited out in the lobby, while Rosa stayed by their four-year-old’s bedside.Luciano had demanded to be inside, but the attending nurse explained that hospital policy strictly limited the room to one caregiver to protect the patient’s immune system. Rosa had quietly urged Luciano not to fight the staff, forcing him to let the medical team work. Left with no choice, he paced the corridor outside, visibly tense.Dr. Samuele came in to check Renzo’s charts. His demeanor with Rosa was strictly clinical, a professional distance she felt immediately. During a previous consultation, she had let slip the chaotic nature of her marriage, and Samuele had been guarded ever since. She hadn't pushed him then, but with her son's treatment in his hands, she couldn't let their personal issues interfere with Renzo's care. She needed to talk to him.After three hours, the transfusion bag ran emp

“Excuse me?” Rosa was taken aback by the sudden verbal attack, staring at the young doctor with wide eyes.“Yes, I mean it,” Bella pushed on, her hands clenching at her sides. “Since I joined this hospital as his intern, I’ve heard so much about you and Dr. DeLuca. Everyone talks about how much he cares for you, and what he’s done for you and your son. But what did you do in return?”Bella’s voice cracked, and her eyes began to glisten with tears, as if she weren't just describing Samuele’s heartbreak, but experiencing it herself. “You turned down his proposal and married another man. You left him so heartbroken that no amount of love can seem to heal him.”A tear spilled from Bella’s eyes, and she wiped it away fiercely.Rosa couldn't help but smile faintly at the sweet, protective gesture. Bella genuinely cared for Samuele, and Rosa was deeply touched to see it. A quiet sense of relief washed over her; she was glad she had just spent the last few minutes in his office advocating for

Samuele stopped in his tracks, a sharp frown pulling at his brow.“And I mean it, sir,” she added, her voice ringing with a sudden, bold confidence.That did it. Samuele turned slowly around to face her, his dark eyes turning cold with a dangerous friction as his brows knitted together.But Bella, as if possessed by this newfound boldness and fueled by Rosa’s encouraging words from just a few minutes ago, didn't stop. “Yes, I like you, Dr. Samuele DeLuca. And I am adult enough to own up to it.”Samuele’s eyes narrowed dangerously, a muscle ticking in his jaw. Without a word, he began walking toward her, his strides slow and deliberate. Bella stood her ground, forcing a sweet, confident smile onto her face. But as he kept closing the distance, getting within a single step of her, her racing heartbeat—growing wilder with every stride he took—overrode her bravery. On their own, her feet started to move. She took a step back.He stepped closer. She took another step back.They kept going

Sitting behind her desk, the doctor pulled a prescription pad toward her and began writing, her focus entirely on the paper. The heavy silence in the room stretched on until she finally looked up, addressing the anxious couple.“I have checked her thoroughly, Mr. Mancini. The ultrasound and the heartbeat monitor show that the baby is completely fine, and her blood pressure is perfectly stable.” She paused, her serious expression softening into a reassuring smile. “There is absolutely nothing to worry about. It's just standard morning sickness—a very difficult, but very common phase in pregnancy.”“But doctor, I didn’t feel this bad even in my early weeks, and now I’m at the end of the third month. Why now?” Rosa asked, her voice laced with confusion and exhaustion.“Well, every pregnancy has its own unique timeline and symptoms, and it seems you are just hitting this wave a bit later,” the doctor explained gently. “The best thing you can do is keep yourself hydrated. Eat small meals at

Rosa blinked, her brow furrowing in brief confusion. But a second later, the sheer audacity of his double entendre dawned on her, and her eyes widened in shock. Lucy immediately looked away, suddenly finding the hospital floor fascinating, while Luca let out a loud, forced cough to clear his throat.“Boss, please,” Luca warned in an amused but strained tone. “We have a woman and a child in the room.”Luciano whipped his head around and leveled a sharp glare at him. Luca quickly pressed his lips together, looking away with a massive, victorious smirk.Rosa shook her head at her shameless husband, who clearly didn't care about the time or place whenever the mood struck him.“Renzo, your daddy has gone completely insane from sleep deprivation,” she said, directing her attention back to her son. “So just don't listen to a word he says.”Luciano let out a low growl at the way she deliberately used that word again.“You really know exactly how to push my buttons, baby,” he murmured under his
