"Mr. Valentino," the doctor's grave tone made Alessandro's brow furrow as he waited for him to continue. "Mrs. Valentino is fine and has no severe injuries. However, as a precaution, I spoke with her OB-GYN to discuss her pregnancy history. She informed me of some existing complications, and, to be on the safe side, I strongly recommend keeping her in the hospital for a day of observation."
Alessandro's worry deepened. "What exactly happened, doctor? Is my wife okay?"
The doctor nodded reassuringly. "She's stable, but we noticed some slight spotting and an elevation in her blood pressure, both of which can be concerning at this stage. The baby's heartbeat is also showing signs of mild stress. We'd like to keep her under close watch for 24 hours to being," he explained.
Alessandro's heart sank with fear, but Emily stepped in placing a comforting hand on his shoulder as she asked the doctor, "Is this something to be very worried about?"
"It's not severe right now, but if we don't take immediate care, these signs could develop into more serious complications for Mrs. Valentino's pregnancy. Rest and monitoring are crucial at this point to prevent any further risk."
"Do everything necessary to make sure my wife gets the best care and medications," Alessandro instructed authoritatively.
"Of course, Mr. Valentino," the doctor replied. "You can go in to see her, but please try not to stress her," he added with a cautionary note before hurrying off to attend to other patients.
Alessandro and Emily entered the room, where Aria lay on the hospital bed, a nurse beside her administering medication. She smiled softly as she saw them, finishing her medicine before speaking. "Emily, how are you?" Aria asked with worry.
"I'm fine," Emily replied with a smile, her heart swelling with pride at seeing her best friend's strength and bravery.
"Thank goodness," Aria sighed. "I was terrified when they targeted you along with me. I don't know what I would have done if anything had happened to you." Her voice was tinged with regret.
"Let bygones be bygones," Emily said with a dramatic wave of her hand. "All's well that ends well, so cheer up and stop stressing," she added, pulling her best friend into a comforting hug. Aria wrapped her arms around Emily, feeling her worries ease.
"Amore mio," Alessandro whispered, attempting to keep his voice steady and mask his worry. Yet his eyes betrayed him, filled with unmistakable concern as he gazed at his wife. She knew him too well, after all.
"I'm fine, Mr. Valentino, and don't make that face," Aria scolded gently, a soft smile playing on her lips. Emily, sensing the need to give them a private moment, stepped back with a supportive nod.
"I'll be waiting outside, okay?" Emily said, casting a reassuring glance before slipping out of the room, leaving the lovesick couple to share a few quiet moments together.

"Don't worry, everything is fine," she whispered in his ear, feeling his tense shoulders relax as he exhaled deeply. "Our baby is strong, a fighter like his father. He be alright," she assured him, a mother's intuition telling her their child was safe. She poured all her strength and determination into this belief, certain it would work like magic.
Alessandro lifted his head, his eyes soft and full of pride for the woman he loved. In that moment, he knew: she was his anchor, his source of strength.
"God, Aria, what would I have done
without you in my life?" Alessandro's voice was thick with mixed
emotions as all the love he felt for her was clear in his words. It was a genuine confession, one that surfaced every time life made him
realize just how close he'd come to
losing her.
"I know, hubby," Aria teased with a playful smile, her voice laced with mischief. "That's why I'm never going to leave you."
Alessandro chuckled softly. His heart was now filled with hope and positivity, emotions that this incredible woman had brought into his life and had become his light in the darkest of times.
He gently pressed his lips to hers, feeling her smile against him.
"Okay, listen, I need a promise from you," Aria said as Alessandro pulled away from the kiss. He nodded attentively, his gaze fixed on her.
"Make sure Matteo and Emily don't stop preparations for their wedding," she demanded. "They've come this far after going through so much, and now they deserve to get married as soon as possible-before anyone else tries to come between them." "You're right," Alessandro agreed, understanding the weight of the situation. "I promise, the wedding will happen on the fixed date." He vowed, his tone firm and resolute.
