THE MAFIA DON HIRED ME AS HIS WIFE のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

“One of your three children already belongs to the Black Rose.” The words echoed through the underground chamber. Elena couldn't breathe. Her hand instinctively moved to her stomach. “No,” she whispered. Adrian immediately stepped in front of her. “You don't get to talk about our children like they're property.” The voice from the speakers remained calm. “Property?” A low, almost amused laugh filled the room. “You still don't understand, Adrian.” “Then come down here and explain it to my face.” “Adrian!” Elena grabbed his arm. “Don't.” He turned toward her. “Elena, they are threatening our children.” “I know.” Her voice trembled. “But that's exactly what they want. They want you angry.” Adrian stared at her for a moment. Then he took her hand. “Whatever happens, I won't let them take you.” Elena looked down at their joined hands. “And the babies?” “All three.” She looked into his eyes. “You heard what they said.” “I heard them.” “They said one of our babies

“Mommy…” Elena froze. The voice echoed through the darkness. It sounded like her. Not similar. Not close. Exactly like her. Adrian immediately pulled Elena against him. “Elena, stay behind me.” “I heard it.” “I know.” “That was my voice.” Adrian looked around. “There is no one here.” A tiny laugh came from the darkness. Elena's blood ran cold. “Mommy…” She grabbed Adrian's shirt. “It's happening again.” Adrian raised his weapon. “Who's there?” No answer. “Show yourself!” The chamber remained silent. Then the machine suddenly flickered back on. A single red light illuminated the room. Everyone looked toward the monitor. A message appeared. VOICE PATTERN IDENTIFIED MATCH: ELENA ROSSI — 100% Elena stared. “That isn't possible.” Celeste stepped closer. “It is.” Elena turned toward her. “Don't say that like it's normal!” Celeste shook her head. “It isn't normal.” “Then explain it!” “I don't know yet.” Elena poi

HEARTBEAT FOUR DETECTED. MATERNAL ORIGIN: UNKNOWN. The words remained on the screen. Nobody moved. Nobody spoke. Elena stood frozen in Adrian's arms, one hand pressed against her stomach. “Four…” she whispered. Adrian stared at the monitor. “That can't be right.” Celeste didn't answer. “Celeste.” She slowly looked at him. “Tell me the machine is wrong.” Celeste swallowed. “I can't.” Adrian's face hardened. “Then tell me what it means.” “I don't know.” “You don't know?” “I've never seen this result before.” Elena looked at her. “But you said the Black Rose created the third embryo.” “Yes.” “And now there's a fourth?” “Yes.” “How?” Celeste shook her head. “I don't know.” Elena's voice trembled. “Everyone keeps saying that.” She looked around the room. “My mother doesn't know.” “My father didn't know.” “Matteo doesn't know.” “Gabriel doesn't know.” “Even the woman who looks like me won't tell me.” She placed both hands over her stomach. “And now there

The gates of the De Luca estate appeared through the darkness.Elena stared through the windshield, her fingers tightly wrapped around Adrian's hand.For the first time in years, the estate didn't feel like home.It felt like a trap.The enormous iron gates stood open.Too open.No guards.No lights.No movement.Nothing.Adrian's eyes narrowed."Something's wrong."Elena swallowed."Everything has been wrong since we discovered the Black Rose."Adrian looked at her."I mean something is wrong right now."Gabriel, sitting in the passenger seat, leaned forward."He's right."Elena frowned."You see something?"Gabriel pointed toward the gate."The security cameras."Adrian looked up.Every camera was pointed directly at the road.But none of them moved."They've been disabled," Adrian said.Matteo, sitting behind them, slowly shook his head."Not disabled."Everyone looked at him."They're watching us."A cold silence filled the vehicle.Elena's stomach tightened."How?"Matteo stared

The glass exploded across the floor. Elena screamed. Adrian immediately pulled her against him, shielding her body with his own. Gabriel raised his weapon. Serena stepped backward. Matteo stared at the woman who had just emerged from the shattered chamber. Amelia, however, didn't move. She only smiled. The woman stood completely still. She looked exactly like Elena. But her eyes were different. Completely black. No visible whites. No reflection. Nothing. She tilted her head. Then smiled. "Hello, Elena." Elena's heart pounded. "Who are you?" The woman took one slow step forward. "I already told you." Her voice sounded like Elena's. But deeper. Colder. "I'm the one who started all of this." Adrian raised his weapon. "Don't come any closer." The woman looked at him. "You still protect her." "She's my wife." The woman smiled. "That's why you're dangerous." Adrian's expression hardened. "Explain." She ignored him. Her eyes returned to Elena. "You finall
