Depois de se casar, Alice Castro recebeu o diagnóstico que caiu como uma sentença: ela tinha enorme dificuldade para engravidar. Ela enfrentou hormônios, injeções e incontáveis consultas até, finalmente, conseguir uma gestação por fertilização in vitro. Mas, quando ela mal começava a se acostumar com a ideia de ser mãe, um choque ainda maior veio à tona: os bebês na barriga dela, na verdade, eram filhos do próprio marido com o primeiro amor dele. — Mano, você foi genial dessa vez. Fez a Alice gerar os filhos seus com o seu primeiro amor. Quando as crianças nascerem, vão ser de vocês dois. A Alice, no fim, não passa de uma barriga de aluguel. O marido de Alice, Michel Monteiro, deu um sorriso frio, sem nenhum traço de culpa: — A Iolanda morre de medo de sentir dor. Como é que ela ia aguentar tudo o que uma gravidez exige? A Alice sempre quis ter filhos meu. Eu só realizei o sonho dela. Alice passou a odiá‑lo com cada célula do corpo. Só que, no hospital, outro segredo veio à superfície: Michel tinha esperma fraco, quase infértil. O laboratório tinha trocado os embriões. Os bebês que Alice carregava não eram do Michel. Eram filhos dela com um magnata misterioso. Ninguém jamais tinha amado Alice de verdade. Então ela pensou: "Se ninguém me ama, vou colocar esses filhos no mundo e deixar que eles me amem." Quando Alice finalmente conseguiu se divorciar e estava pronta para ir embora sem olhar para trás, o ex‑marido, Michel, desabou num arrependimento tardio: — Amor, não vai embora! Nesse exato momento, o homem misterioso apareceu atrás de Alice. Ele a puxou para dentro do abraço dele, sem a menor cerimônia. — Fiquei sabendo que você está grávida de filhos meus? — Perguntou ele, com a voz baixa, firme, como quem não aceitava discussão.
