00:01La giornata dopo aver dato il mio figlio, i bambini stavolvano.
00:07I was devastati.
00:09I kept searching for 2 anni e non ho mai trovato.
00:14After I died, I saw a stranger carry my babies to the Valenti estate
00:18and trick my husband, Dawn Vincent Valenti, into believing she was me.
00:23She lived in luxury under my name for 40 years
00:26and my children cared for her all their lives.
00:31When I opened my eyes again, I was back at Valenti's private house,
00:35being reeled to the ward after giving birth.
00:38The patient in the next bed smiled and offered me an apple.
00:43Honey, giving birth is hard, so eat this apple and get some strength back.
00:47My whole body shook as I stared at her face.
00:50She was the thief who had stolen my babies in my last life.
00:53Honey, you're finally awake.
00:54I turned my head.
00:55The woman from the next bed sat on the edge of my bed, smiled.
00:58Giving birth is hard.
01:00Eat an apple and get some strength back.
01:02In instant, my whole body froze.
01:04I watched that face for 40 years after I died.
01:07She stood at the Valenti estate with my son and daughter,
01:09saying she was Mia Bennett.
01:11She cried and said the children could not without father.
01:13My husband, my children, everyone believed her.
01:17She wore my clothes, lived in my home, and my children called her mom for 40 years.
01:23She moved the apple closer.
01:25Honey?
01:26My hand shook under the blanket, but I fought to stop it.
01:28Thanks, but I just gave birth and can't eat anything cold yet?
01:30Didn't take it.
01:31Her smile froze for a second.
01:32Then she searched for the glass on the tray.
01:34Then have some water.
01:35The nurse just brought it.
01:36Please, don't bother.
01:37Oh, it's no trouble.
01:38She shoved the bowl onto my bedside table, then fixed my blanket.
01:41Fate made us roommates, and you're alone after giving birth, so how could I not help?
01:45Her eyes kept studying my face.
01:46I can do it myself.
01:48She acted like she hadn't heard, pulled up a chair, and sat by my bed.
01:52Honey, twins are such a blessing.
01:56Why hasn't your family come?
01:57Where is your husband?
01:58Where is your mother-in-law?
01:59Every nerve in me went tight.
02:00This was it.
02:01In my last life, that was how she got everything out of me in my last life.
02:04Back then, I had just been stitched up and was still drugged in days.
02:07So I answered whatever she asked and felt grateful for her help.
02:09Looking back now, I had been a complete fool in my last life.
02:13They are busy and will come in a few days.
02:16Busy?
02:18What's more important than his wife giving birth, honey?
02:20Did he lie to you?
02:21I said nothing.
02:22She looked at me again.
02:23What about tonight?
02:24You just gave birth, your wound is fresh, and you can't lift them when they cry.
02:29Let me watch them tonight, and you can finally get some sleep.
02:33She bent down.
02:34My heart pounded.
02:35Don't touch my babies!
02:37Screamed before I could stop myself.
02:38Her hands moved toward my baby's.
02:42I grabbed Lena Costa's wrist, and my shout shook the ward.
02:46An older woman nearby jumped up first.
02:48What are you doing?
02:49Lena tried to help, and you attacked her!
02:52Another mother turned from her drink, frowned, clicked tongue.
02:54Young women today are so ungrateful.
02:56Does she owe you anything?
02:57Lena held her wrist.
02:58Honey, even if you don't appreciate my help, you can't falsely accuse me.
03:01You just had twins with no one here, so I could not ignore you.
03:04Exactly.
03:05Lena helped all morning.
03:06She brought broth and fixed your blanket.
03:07No thanks.
03:09You even shoved her.
03:11Fine.
03:11Lena waved her hand.
03:12She just gave birth and feels scared.
03:14Every mother protects her babies.
03:15She sounded like she defended me, but every word judged me.
03:19Does being scared excuse hitting people?
03:21We are all mothers.
03:22Mother-in-law snorted.
03:23She fears her babies will love someone else.
03:25I know mothers like her.
03:27I ignored them all.
03:27Lena returned to her bed, still holding her wrist.
03:30That's what I get for helping.
03:31An older woman cursed at me through the curtain.
03:33I stayed silent.
03:34She got bored, rolled over, and slept.
03:36I didn't sleep.
03:37I pulled both bassinets beside my pillow, within reach.
03:40Ear-wrinkled faces peeked out, one breathing softly, the other deeply, like kittens.
03:45I never closed my eyes that night.
03:47I wanted to sleep, but was too afraid.
03:49Each time I drifted off, footsteps woke me.
03:51Only after touching both warm bodies calmed me.
03:54That night, Lena paused by my bed on her way to the bathroom.
03:57I said nothing, and stared at her.
03:59My stare must have scared her, because she muttered,
04:02Psycho.
04:02And hurried away.
04:03The next day, she stayed away from me.
04:05But on the third night, she brought me a bowl of oatmeal.
04:08Honey, I won't hold yesterday against you.
04:10After a C-section, oatmeal can help your milk come in.
04:12No.
04:13Look how dry your lips are.
04:14I said no.
04:15She waited.
04:16Set down the bowl.
04:16Fine, I'll leave it here.
04:17Eat it later if you want.
04:18She turned, and left.
04:20I watched the bowl until everyone slept, then dumped it in the trash.
04:24By the third day, I could not go on.
04:27Two sleepless days and nights left my wound aching, my milk low, and both babies crying.
04:32A nurse came in to check my blood pressure.
04:33The top number was 160.
04:35You can't go on like this.
04:37Where is your family?
04:38Call them now.
04:39Yes, honey.
04:40You look exhausted.
04:41Call someone to help you.
04:42I was exhausted, and close to breaking.
04:44The need to protect them mixed with my terror of losing them.
04:47Finally, I gritted my teeth and considered calling my absent husband.
04:51The nurse's questions still rang in my ears.
04:53No one.
04:54No one?
04:54What about your mother-in-law, your husband?
04:56I stayed silent.
04:57The nurse looked at me.
04:58Your wound isn't healing, and this is dangerous.
05:00You must get help.
05:01She put it away.
05:02If you don't want family here, hire a private nurse.
05:05I leaned against the headboard as my vision kept going black.
05:09Could the private nurse watch Lena's every move for me?
05:12Could the private nurse stop Lena's hands if I closed my eyes for one second?
05:15I closed my eyes, and my last life flooded back.
05:19Vincent and I were never a loving couple.
05:21A rival family had forced his parents into hiding in my hill town.
05:24I grew up without parents' love.
05:26They pitied me, so I gave them my whole heart.
05:29When the landslide hit our town, I dragged them both from the map, his mother held me,
05:34and cried that I was her daughter now.
05:36You are my daughter, Mel.
05:36When they returned to Vespera, they took me and forced Vincent to marry me.
05:41Foolishly, I agreed, but Vincent stayed cold, and we barely met.
05:46His parents loved me like their own daughter.
05:49They died, one after another, two years ago, leaving the house empty.
05:54Vincent always handled family affairs in Empire City,
05:57and rarely returned to Vespera.
05:58The last time he came home, I got drunk.
06:01I woke sore, but Vincent had already returned to the Empire City,
06:04so I never told him I was pregnant.
06:06I still insisted on giving birth alone.
06:09I never thought that choice would destroy my life.
06:12Vincent never knew I gave birth.
06:14After I died, we truly loved both children.
06:17When our daughter had a fever, he stayed beside her for three days.
06:21She refused her pill, so he fed it to her.
06:24and juice dropped like a fever, and fever made her babble at night.
06:28He paced with her until dawn.
06:30He never once complained.
06:31Our son was wild, and Vincent spent winters building snowmen
06:35and lifting both kids high.
06:37Vincent never missed school meetings and always read their bedtime stories.
06:40I blinked back my tears.
06:42Nurse!
06:43She turned to leave, but I called again.
06:46Nurse!
06:46I need to make a call.
06:48Can you watch my babies for one minute?
06:49Don't let anyone touch them.
06:51Okay, hurry back.
06:52She paused, then nodded.
06:54I had no choice but to call him.
06:56I gripped the bed rail and stood, each step like a knife.
06:59My back was soaked when I reached the nurse's station.
07:02I went to the nurse's station to charge my phone.
07:05Once it turned on, I called the Valenti estate.
07:07Hello, I'm Don Vincent Valenti's wife.
07:10I'm at Valenti Private Hospital.
07:11It's urgent.
07:12Please put me through.
07:13After another long wait, a deep voice answered.
07:17Vincent Valenti speaking.
07:18I opened my mouth, unsure where to start.
07:20Vincer, it's me, Mia Bennett.
07:22I'm at Vizura Validi Private Hospital.
07:25My surgeon, the nurse I told to stay, was helping my third man to the restroom.
07:29The war door stood up and roar exploded in my head.
07:32The receiver fell.
07:33Things whose voice came through.
07:36I was already running.
07:37Mia, what happened?
07:39Hello, Mia.
07:40I leaned and felt broken from inside, but I didn't stop.
07:43Sam, don't run in the hall.
07:44Be careful.
07:44But I don't remember how crossing that hall.
07:48The wall looked empty.
07:49The window was wide open.
07:52Both bassinets were empty.
07:54My baby's been stolen.
07:59My vision went black.
08:01Everything was just like my last life.
08:03In my last life, I drank Lena's broth and woke to the same empty bassinet.
08:07I walked out, holding the wall.
08:09My wound aching as my vision kept going black.
08:12Not in the hall.
08:13Not in the family lounge.
08:14Not in the restroom.
08:15Not in the stairwell.
08:16I opened every door, ripped back every curtain, and shoved everyone aside.
08:21People called me to face and pushed me, but I heard nothing.
08:24The nurse Lena sent to help the old man came running back in panic.
08:27Ma'am, why are you out of bed?
08:29Your stitches could tear.
08:33I told you to watch my babies.
08:35Where were you?
08:36The nurse went pale.
08:38An old man felt dizzy and could not stand.
08:40I took him to the restroom.
08:41It was only two minutes.
08:43Two minutes?
08:44My babies are gone!
08:47Both of them are gone!
08:48Doors began opening along the hall.
08:50A doctor rushed over, followed by the head doctor.
08:53As more people gathered, a patient warned me about my wound.
08:56But I shoved him off and pointed at the head doctor.
08:59My babies were stolen, minutes ago.
09:02Lock every exit.
09:03There is still time.
09:05The head doctor froze, then shouted at a nurse.
09:07Call security.
09:09Lock the front, side, and back doors.
09:11No one leaves!
09:12It was her.
09:12My voice so cold, it sounded strange.
09:15The woman beside me, Lena Costa.
09:17She watched my babies and kept asking questions since I woke.
09:21Now she is gone.
09:22So are they.
09:23A doctor hesitated.
09:25Ma'am, don't jump to conclusions.
09:27Maybe a nurse took them for a checkup.
09:28I laughed from rage.
09:30But sheer pain struck before I could answer.
09:32Two nurses helped me up and led me toward their station.
09:35Halfway there, a thought struck like lightning.
09:38I threw off their hands and grabbed a young nurse behind the desk.
09:42That old man, thin, with white hair.
09:44He faked collapsing in the hall.
09:47What old man?
09:48She had an accomplice.
09:49An old man.
09:50He lured the nurse away.
09:51The nurse who helped him covered her mouth, then stumbled back moments later.
09:55Lena's bed is empty.
09:56Mr. Rosso never left his room.
09:58That old man was not a patient.
10:00Everyone understood at once.
10:02He faked illness to lure the nurse away while Lena took my babies.
10:06And the whole theft took under three minutes.
10:08The head doctor sent teams to every floor and corner as the hospital whipped with chaos.
10:13At last, security cornered someone outside a second floor supply room.
10:17Lena Costa.
10:18When security dragged her out by the wrist, she looked like we were the crazy ones.
10:22I rushed over and slapped her hard.
10:24Her head snapped aside.
10:26You hit me?
10:28Where are my babies?
10:29Where did you hide them?
10:31Your babies are gone.
10:32You're scared, so I'll let this go.
10:34But why hit me?
10:35I was with the nurse on rounds.
10:37Honey, is everyone a kidnapper to steal your babies?
10:40People nearby began whispering.
10:42She's right.
10:42Why hit her because your babies are missing?
10:44My whole body shook with rage.
10:46Half an hour passed.
10:48My babies were still missing.
10:50Every ward, exam room, lounge, and restroom had been searched.
10:53They searched everywhere, but found no trace.
10:57With all exits locked, no one could leave.
10:59People waiting to leave the hospital started yelling.
11:02The head doctor blocked the door and begged for more time, but no one listened.
11:06The doctor asked to open the main doors, but I stood still, shaking, just like my last life.
11:11I was about to lose my babies again.
11:13I turned and glared at Lena, but she smiled at me.
11:16Pain forced me against the wall, and cold sweat poured like rain.
11:20My last life and this one overlapped as I went pale and nearly fainted.
11:25An arm caught me as I slid down the wall.
11:28My sight went white as someone pulled me into his arms.
11:31Vincent's face was dark with fear as he held mine.
11:34Mia?
11:35Mia?
11:36Can you hear me?
11:37I grabbed his wrist, and my tears finally fell.
11:40Vincent, please save our babies.
11:42They were stolen.
11:43I can't find them.
11:46Vincent's face changed at once.
11:48His underboss moved fast, and Vincent's men soon surrounded the hospital.
11:52Every main, side, and service door was locked, allowing entry, but no exit.
11:56Two armed guards flanked the entrance.
11:58People waiting to leave stared, then arrived.
12:01What is this?
12:01You can't keep us here!
12:03The crowd searched for the doors.
12:05Everyone!
12:06Don Devin and Valetti's newborn twins are missing.
12:08A boy and a girl.
12:09They are in grave danger.
12:11Please cooperate.
12:12Do not leave.
12:13The crowd went silent for a moment.
12:14A man with a briefcase frowned and argued.
12:17So what if he's a Don?
12:18A Don can't-
12:19If you must leave, show me your ID and tell me why.
12:21The underboss stared him down.
12:23I decide who leaves.
12:24What's your emergency?
12:26The Don's babies.
12:27Don Vincent at Valetti.
12:29They say he commands over a thousand men in Empire City.
12:32The loudest one stepped back, until the lobby was quiet enough to hear a pin drop.
12:36Lina stood in back, as her expression slowly cracked.
12:39Her innocent act vanished.
12:41Her lips shook, and she backed away.
12:43After three steps, her back hit something solid.
12:47She turned.
12:48Her guard looked down at her without emotion.
12:51Another stood to her left.
12:52Trapped between them, her spine seemed to shrink.
12:55I-I'm only a patient.
12:57Why are you stopping me?
12:59No one answered.
13:01My weak fingers barely helped Vincent's sleeve, leaving several creases in the cuff.
13:05Our daughter is in pink, with a tiny red mark behind her right ear.
13:10Our son is in blue, with a blue mark on his left wrist.
13:13I searched the lounge, restrooms, stairwells, and supply rooms.
13:17Nothing.
13:18I searched every floor.
13:20They are not there.
13:21Vincent said nothing.
13:23He pulled my hand from his sleeve, pressed me into a chair, and faced a nurse.
13:27Please watch her.
13:28The nurse nodded hard.
13:29Vincent turned to his underboss, grabbed the hospital mat, and traced all five floors.
13:35Five floors.
13:35One team on each.
13:36Search top down.
13:37Check stairwells, service shafts, ceiling panels, morgue, boiler room, and trash room.
13:41Missed nothing.
13:42Yes.
13:46A couple reported a husband locking a room.
13:49Vincent raced upstairs and heard the man shouting before he reached the hall.
13:52My wife just gave birth.
13:53Who answers if you men scare her?
13:55Those missing babies are not our problem.
13:57Vincent reached the door.
13:58He removed his gloves.
13:59The shorter man saw the Valenti ring and swallowed half his curse.
14:02Sorry.
14:03I'm a father too.
14:04I'll send female guards.
14:05Is that okay?
14:06The man froze for two seconds, then stepped aside.
14:08Five floors surged.
14:10Nothing.
14:10Not one trace of my babies.
14:12The capos stood before me, his dry lips cracked and his head bowed.
14:16Don, we searched every hiding place.
14:17Nothing.
14:18I sat at the nurse's station as my hands began to shake.
14:21Vincent stood in the lobby, frowning at the hospital mat for a long time.
14:25No.
14:25He suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing like a knife on stone.
14:28We haven't searched everything.
14:30Vincent carefully questioned the nurse who had helped the old man.
14:33She stood before him, her clenched knuckles white.
14:36Her lips shook before she could speak clearly.
14:38That old man came from the stairwell.
14:42I was inside the ward.
14:43He leaned by the door, held his chest, and said he felt dizzy.
14:47He could barely stand.
14:50I had never seen him.
14:51He was not from this floor.
14:53What was he wearing?
14:54A hospital gown.
14:56But it bulged like something was stuffed inside.
14:59I thought it was just too big for his thin body.
15:02Where did you take him?
15:03The restroom.
15:05Halfway there, he said he was fine.
15:07He held the wall and turned into the west hall, so I came back.
15:11Vincent looked toward the west hall.
15:14What is on the west side of the first floor?
15:16The head doctor quickly looked into the floor plan.
15:18Pharmistry. Equipment storage.
15:19Linen room.
15:20Then the morgue hall.
15:23Vincent turned and walked off.
15:27Search the west wing.
15:28Start with the linen room.
15:29The linen room stood at the hall's end, secured by an old rusty padlock.
15:34The cap approached twice, then turned around.
15:38Where's the key?
15:38A maintenance worker hurried over with a large ring of keys.
15:41Mold and bleach hit us when the door opened.
15:44The small room was packed with white, blue and grey linens from floor to ceiling.
15:50Search.
15:52Vincent's men filed inside.
15:54Nothing.
15:55Not even a footprint.
15:56Vincent stayed by the door.
15:57He scanned the four walls and one barred window facing the hospital's back wall.
16:03He suddenly asked the worker.
16:05Is this room usually locked?
16:07The worker froze.
16:08No.
16:09We leave it open for air flow and easy access.
16:13It is never locked.
16:14Vincent entered, stepping over old sheets scattered across the floor.
16:18He stopped in the center.
16:19Seven or eight old covers lay in a messy pile, unlike the mess his men had made.
16:25Vincent bent down and ripped away the top cover.
16:28There was no floor beneath it.
16:29There was a hidden hatch.
16:32The capo walked forward.
16:35Don, let me handle it.
16:37He crouched, gripped the iron ring, and pulled hard.
16:41The hatch opened with a cold wind, revealing a black hole.
16:45The damp smell of underground pipes rose with rust and mud.
16:51Flashlights.
16:52Two beams revealed a terrifyingly narrow service tunnel.
16:56Old pipes covered the walls as rusty water ran down them.
16:59The capo leaned inside, but his shoulders caught, forcing him back.
17:03Don, it's too narrow.
17:04Don, it's too narrow.
17:04An adult cannot fit.
17:05Vincent scanned the men behind him.
17:08Too thinnest.
17:10Go down and follow the pipes.
17:12Vincent handed them two flashlights.
17:14Whatever you find, come back and report first.
17:17Yes.
17:17The two guards crawled inside, one after the other.
17:20Their lights shook across the walls as footsteps and running water faded away.
17:25I braced against the wall as sweat from my palms soaked my cuff.
17:29Five minutes passed.
17:31At last, the thin guard's head appeared, his eyes blazing.
17:36Don!
17:37The tunnel ends in an abandoned boiler room.
17:40I hear a baby crying inside.
17:44I lunged forward, but Vincent caught me.
17:49How do we reach the boiler room?
17:51The tunnel leads inside, but there is an outside door.
17:54It is at the far west end, across from the morgue.
17:57Vincent grabbed me and rushed toward the boiler room.
18:00Pale lights covered the morgue hall, filled with the smell of formaldehyde.
18:04The boiler room stood at the end.
18:06A thumb-thick chain wrapped the door, holding a brand new padlock.
18:11Brand new.
18:12Vincent released me, drew his pistol, and smashed the lock with its grip.
18:17The lock broke.
18:18Vincent kicked the metal door open.
18:20Dust covered the room, with broken chairs, rotten crates, and yellowed newspapers in every corner.
18:26A torn cardboard box sat behind the boiler.
18:29Old clothes lined the box.
18:31Two tiny bodies lay pressed together.
18:33One blue, one blue.
18:34My son was crying.
18:36His face was red, and his tiny fists were clenched.
18:39My daughter made no sound.
18:40Her face showed above the blanket.
18:42Lips blue.
18:43Eyes closed.
18:44Body still.
18:46Vincent pulled off his thick black coat, knelt, wrapped both babies, and lifted them.
18:52The soft lining covered their bodies, leaving only two wrinkled faces.
18:56I rushed over and touched my daughter's face.
18:59It was cold.
19:00I opened my mouth, but cement filled my throat, and no words came.
19:05Vincent held her nose and mouth near his lips for three seconds.
19:10She's breathing.
19:11He wrapped them tighter, held them to his chest, and turned toward the door.
19:15He moved so fast, the capo had to jog behind him.
19:18Get a doctor.
19:19Call the newborn unit.
19:21Bring an incubator now.
19:23Both babies were placed in incubators for observation.
19:26Vincent posted two guards outside the newborn unit.
19:29Then, he returned to the lobby.
19:30Lena was still there, held by two guards.
19:33Chin raised and lips tight.
19:34She looked like the world owed her answers.
19:37Vincent walked up and got straight to the point.
19:39What is the old man's name?
19:41Where is he?
19:43Lena blinked, looking innocent.
19:45What old man?
19:45I don't know any old man.
19:47You've held me here all this time.
19:49I only went to the restroom, and your men grabbed me like a criminal.
19:52I'm going back to my room.
19:54Vincent did not look at her.
19:56He turned and scanned the nurses in the lobby.
19:58A nurse with a short bob slowly stepped forward.
20:01Donbaletti.
20:03I saw them.
20:05Lena's gaze cut toward her like a knife.
20:07The nurse flinched.
20:08He spoke with Lena outside the ward for a long time, but kept speaking.
20:12Their heads were close, and they whispered.
20:14I passed with a medicine tray.
20:17Lena watched me, then kept talking after I left.
20:21Lena went pale.
20:22What lies are you telling?
20:24I don't know him!
20:26He stood by the door, so I thought he was someone's family.
20:31We only spoke for a moment!
20:33That makes us partners?
20:35The nurse bit her lip.
20:36I never called you partners.
20:36I only said you spoke for a long time.
20:39People in the lobby began whispering.
20:41Vincent gave Lena no chance to continue.
20:43He ordered the capo.
20:44Find him.
20:45Search every corner.
20:46The morgue, its drawers in the body transport hall.
20:48Miss nothing.
20:49Yes, Don.
20:5130 minutes later, two guards dragged a man from the passage behind the mall.
20:55He had curled under a body cart, his white hair covered in wall dust.
20:59A guard hauled him out by the collar as he kicked and groaned.
21:02Another guard pulled crumpled cash from inside his coat.
21:06There were 2,500 euro notes.
21:0810,000 euros total, tied with a rubber band.
21:11They dragged him into the lobby.
21:14They shoved him before Vincent, and his knees hit the tile with a heavy thud.
21:20Lena's legs buckled when she saw him.
21:22The guards felt her weight drop and hauled her upright.
21:27Name.
21:27Vincent looked down at the man.
21:29Bruno Costa.
21:31How are you related to her?
21:32Bruno looked up at Lena.
21:34She glared at him, silently warning him not to speak.
21:36Bruno was not on her side.
21:38I'm her brother.
21:39Her real brother.
21:41All color left Lena's face.
21:43Shut up.
21:45You think that will help?
21:46Bruno spun toward her shadow.
21:48They caught us in the act.
21:49Why keep lying?
21:51Then he turned to Vincent and spilled everything.
21:53The two had moved from town to town across Vespera for years.
21:57A quarry collapse left Bruno with one object.
22:00Unable to more work, Lena's husband ran off, leaving her alone with gaffled cats.
22:05Together, they began targeting hospital newborns.
22:09She uses fake papers to enter maternity words as a patient.
22:12She picks mothers with no family in their life.
22:14She learns about their families.
22:16I watch for trouble in the tub.
22:18She takes the baby, and I move.
22:20And my wife deserves to sleep.
22:23Twins can sell for 100,000 euros.
22:25She promised we'd stop all of this job.
22:27I believed her.
22:29Lena went wild.
22:30Shut up!
22:31You were free from the guards and slapped Luna.
22:33You useless coward!
22:35You tell them everything!
22:36If you hadn't been so slow, the babies would be gone!
22:39I would already be...
22:40Her voice suddenly died.
22:41You would already be what?
22:43Lena pressed her lips into a line and refused another word.
22:45Vincent did not push her.
22:46Nodded at the capo.
22:47Locked them in separate rooms.
22:48One room each.
22:49Two guards dragged Lena toward a first floor security room.
22:52Within five minutes, the capo came out with two pages covered in writing.
22:56She broke the moment she entered.
22:57She thought her brother had confessed everything, so she started talking.
23:00Vincent looked down.
23:01Lena wanted more than my twins.
23:03On her second day, she heard two nurses talking while getting medicine.
23:07Bed three is Mia Bennett.
23:08I heard she's Don Vincent de Valenti's secret wife.
23:10Don or not, no one even came for her.
23:12She must mean nothing to him.
23:13Those words made Lena think she had found the chance of her life.
23:18In her statement, Lena said,
23:20Why her?
23:21A woman who barely saw her husband.
23:24Plain.
23:24Two.
23:25Just a nobody from a hill town.
23:27Why did she get to Marriott and live at the Veloti Estate?
23:30Why did she get that life?
23:32How was I any less?
23:33I would take the twins and wait for things to calm down.
23:36Then I would go to the Veloti Estate and claim to be Mia Bennett.
23:39The real Mia had no one.
23:41Who would prove she was Vincent's wife?
23:43Vincitta did not even come when Mia gave birth.
23:46He probably couldn't remember her face.
23:48That was why she succeeded in my last life.
23:51This time, she fell one step short.
23:53Vincent finished both pages, folded them, and put them in his coat.
23:57His face showed nothing.
23:59Match their statements.
24:00Get signatures and fingerprints.
24:02Save all security footage.
24:03Give everything to the police.
24:06When guards dragged Lena out, her hair was loose,
24:09and Bruno's handprint marked half her face.
24:11With her arms pinned behind her,
24:12Lena saw me by the wall as the guards marched her out.
24:14She jerked around, her eyes filled with poison.
24:17Don't celebrate, Mia!
24:19You think you won?
24:20You only won because you were lucky enough to get...
24:22The guards shoved her back down.
24:24Her chin hit her shoulder, and she bit her tongue.
24:26Her threat became a muffled cry.
24:28I watched them drag her through the hospital doors,
24:30and the doorframe narrowed her struggle until she vanished.
24:33The nightmare from my last life was gone.
24:35I turned away without looking at Vincent,
24:37and went to my baby's incubators.
24:39They had been taken from me twice,
24:40and I would never leave their side again.
24:43Vincent stood beside me,
24:44watching both babies sleep,
24:46his eyes gentle.
24:47I'm sorry, I didn't know you were pregnant.
24:49I left you to give birth alone.
24:50That was my fault.
24:51I shook my head.
24:52Move to the Empire City with the babies.
24:55You and the babies are not safe in here.
24:56I turned to him and smiled.
24:58Okay.
25:00Discharge day was bright and clear.
25:02Vincent's black armored SUV
25:04waited outside the maternity wing.
25:06It gleaned in the sunlight,
25:07its windows bright as mirrors.
25:09Vincent stood beside it.
25:10He opened the rear door,
25:12and I froze.
25:13Two custom newborn seats were fixed in back.
25:16They had black fabric,
25:18polished steel buckles,
25:19and tight safety straps.
25:21Even Palermo's finest baby store
25:24did not carry seats like these.
25:26Where did you get them?
25:28Milan.
25:29Vincent placed our daughter inside,
25:31supporting her head more gently than a nurse.
25:35I had them sent overnight.
25:37How much did they cost?
25:39Not much.
25:40How much?
25:41He fastened her straps without looking back.
25:42Less than one bulletproof window.
25:44I placed our son in the other seat
25:45and fastened the buckle.
25:47The babies sat on each side,
25:48strapped in like two little cocoons.
25:50Our daughter slept, head tilted,
25:52while our son watched the window with curious eyes.
25:56I climbed in and sat between them.
25:59Before I could close the door,
26:00Vincent came around.
26:02He leaned in and reached across me for the seatbelt.
26:07His hair brushed my chin.
26:08The short strands were as stiff as a brush.
26:11He smelled of clean soap.
26:12I pulled back.
26:13His hand paused.
26:14Then the buckle clicked.
26:15He stepped away and closed the door.
26:17He never said a word.
26:19At the Empire City Valenti estate,
26:21Vincent stopped the car.
26:22As I stepped out,
26:23Rosa waited in the courtyard.
26:25She was in her 50s,
26:26with a neat apron and rolled sleeves.
26:28Her hands kept wiping against her apron.
26:32So this is Mia.
26:33Oh, you're so thin.
26:35She hurried over and took my son with skilled hands.
26:38Then she looked back at Vincent.
26:39Don Vincent, move.
26:41Stop blocking the door.
26:43Mia, come inside.
26:45The chicken broth is ready.
26:47Rosa pulled me into the kitchen
26:48and put a bowl in my hands.
26:50The broth was pale gold,
26:52with parsley floating on top.
26:53Lily,
26:55Vinetta said you must not lift anything for a month.
26:58Rosa stood with her hands on her hips,
27:00and wiped the counter.
27:01I'll wash the dishes.
27:02I'll fold the blankets.
27:06I'll hold the babies when they cry.
27:09You only need to eat and sleep.
27:13I held the bowl and looked back.
27:15Vincent stood in the doorway,
27:17carrying my suitcase,
27:18hospital bag,
27:19and baby bag.
27:20He looked at me,
27:21then at Rosa,
27:22and his ears turned red.
27:24Rosa looked anywhere but at him and added,
27:26Vincent also told me to make you eggs every morning.
27:29He said you're too thin.
27:31Vincent coughed,
27:32carried the bags inside,
27:33and walked away with heavy steps.
27:36That night,
27:37both babies finally slept.
27:39Rosa lived in the staff wing.
27:41Before leaving,
27:41she filled the kettle
27:42and cleaned every bottle.
27:44One lamp lit the living room
27:45as I sat on the sofa,
27:46feeling strangely unsteady.
27:49Vincent left his office
27:50holding a fountain pen,
27:51with ink staining his cuff.
27:52He stood before me for two seconds,
27:55then entered the bedroom.
27:57When he returned,
27:58he carried a blanket.
27:59He laid it over my legs.
28:01It's cold.
28:02Shh.
28:03The olive green wool blanket
28:05had pale, worn edges.
28:06I spread it over my legs
28:08and smelled cedar.
28:14The next afternoon,
28:16my son cried inside the house.
28:17I ran toward him with a laundry basket.
28:20At the doorway,
28:20I saw Vincent had reached him first.
28:22He had been fixing a vintage motorcycle
28:24in the courtyard.
28:25Its chain was half removed,
28:27and black grease covered his hands.
28:29The moment he heard the crying,
28:30he dropped his wrench
28:31and rushed inside,
28:32his oily hands hovering above our son.
28:35He was afraid to stain the swaddle.
28:38Vincent ran to wash and dry his hands
28:41before lifting him.
28:46Our son lay against his shoulder,
28:48crying so hard he hiccuped.
28:50Vincent supported his bottom,
28:52patted his back,
28:53and paced across the room.
28:55He kept whispering something.
28:57Don't cry.
28:58Daddy's here.
28:59Our son cried once,
29:01then again,
29:01before going quiet.
29:03His tiny hand gripped Vincent's shirt,
29:05and his runny nose stained the collar.
29:08Soon he slept in Vincent's arms,
29:10mouth open
29:11and breath warming Vincent's neck.
29:13Rosa peeked from the staff wing and laughed.
29:15Vincent's ears turned red again.
29:18He placed our son back,
29:20tucked in his blanket,
29:21then spoke to me.
29:23The motorcycle still isn't fixed.
29:25He hurried outside,
29:27crouched beside the motorcycle,
29:28and picked up his wrench.
29:30He's holding it backward.
29:34A few days later,
29:36sunlight filled the nursery.
29:37Rosa was at the market,
29:38and both babies slept in their bassinets.
29:41I was putting their new clothes into a tall cabinet.
29:44I stood on my toes to reach the top shelf.
29:46Somehow,
29:47a low storage box had been left behind me.
29:49I stepped back onto it.
29:51Its wheels slid across the floor,
29:52throwing me backward.
29:53Before I fell,
29:55an arm caught my waist.
29:56My back hit a hard chest,
29:58and suit buttons pressed into my spine.
30:00I looked up into Vincent's lowered face.
30:02One arm locked around my waist,
30:04his hot palm burning through my blouse.
30:08You.
30:08The shelf groaned above us.
30:10I had grabbed it while falling,
30:12and its brackets tore from the wall.
30:13The shirt covered my head,
30:16its sleeves blocking my eyes.
30:17The blanket knocked Vincent's sunglasses from his shirt,
30:20and sent them across the floor.
30:22A soft sound came from the doorway.
30:24Through the sleeve,
30:25I saw Rosa standing there with grocery bags.
30:27Before I could speak,
30:28she slipped away.
30:29The door closed behind her.
30:31Vincent steadied me,
30:32released my waist,
30:33and stepped back.
30:34He coughed,
30:35picked up his sunglasses,
30:36and wiped them.
30:37Then he crouched and picked up the clothes.
30:39He shook out each piece,
30:41and hung them over his arm.
30:42This shelf should have been fixed long ago.
30:44You're blushing.
30:45It's warm in here.
30:47I looked at the air conditioner.
30:48Cold air was blowing right over him.
30:51Vincent picked up the last bib,
30:53and carried away the storage box.
30:55He moved much faster than usual.
30:57A few days later,
30:58a cool breeze came that afternoon.
31:00I carried our daughter through the estate garden.
31:02She held my collar,
31:03watched the sparrows,
31:04and made soft, gurgling sounds.
31:06Carla,
31:07wife of one of Vincent's capos,
31:09sat knitting on a bench.
31:10Her needles crossed twice,
31:11before she saw me and stood.
31:13Mia!
31:14Come sit!
31:15She pulled me onto the bench,
31:16and looked me over.
31:17Why do you look better every day?
31:19You looked made of paper at the hospital.
31:21Now your face is filling out.
31:23Julia cracked pistachios nearby,
31:25and joined in.
31:26Vincent did that.
31:26She nudged my blouse with her toe.
31:28Look at this blouse.
31:29Saks crown row.
31:31It's the newest style.
31:32No one else here has one.
31:33I saw it for $800,
31:34and couldn't buy it.
31:35Vincent bought it?
31:37Vincent had it sent from Lumineer last month.
31:39I saw him open the box at the gate.
31:41I asked what he bought.
31:42He said,
31:42document.
31:43Carla laughed so hard,
31:45that her yarn rolled away unnoticed.
31:46I stood there,
31:47holding my daughter,
31:48and froze.
31:50Back home,
31:51I placed her in the bassinet.
31:52I stood in a living room,
31:54thinking of nothing,
31:54as I glanced toward Vincent's room.
31:56His bedroom door stood open.
31:58A dark three-door wardrobe,
31:59filled one wall.
32:00The left door stayed closed,
32:02and held his suits.
32:03I walked over and opened it.
32:04Three tailored suits hung straight,
32:06from light summer wool to heavy winter cloth.
32:09I reached under the deepest black suit,
32:11and felt something hard.
32:12A silk scarf.
32:14It was folded inside a slim black box,
32:16its tag still attached.
32:18The tag read,
32:18Pure Silk,
32:19Saks Fifth Avenue,
32:20Empire City.
32:21I turned the scarf over.
32:23The smoky gray silk had pale pink roses,
32:25and flowed like water in my hands.
32:27I folded it exactly,
32:29put it back under the suit,
32:30and closed the door.
32:31The door shut louder than I expected.
32:33That night,
32:34Rosa made beef stew.
32:35Vincent sat across from me,
32:36his jacket over the chair as he ate.
32:38He ate like he fought.
32:39Three bites of beef,
32:40two of bread,
32:41never looking up.
32:42I put a piece of beef on my plate,
32:44but did not eat it.
32:45How far is Lumines from Empire City?
32:47His fork paused in the air.
32:48Then he took another bite,
32:50and spoke with full cheeks.
32:51You found it.
32:52I was passing by.
32:53Passing by?
32:55You flew to Lumiere for a family meeting,
32:57and stopped at Fifth Avenue for a scarf?
32:59He choked,
33:00grabbed his water,
33:01and drank.
33:02The glass at the table too loudly.
33:03It was on my way.
33:05We ate after the meeting.
33:06I saw it in a window.
33:07Rosa washed dishes in the kitchen,
33:09with the faucet running loudly.
33:10I lowered my head,
33:12took a bite,
33:12and asked nothing else.
33:14Halfway through dinner,
33:15Vincent suddenly set down his fork.
33:17That scarf suits you.
33:18Then he finished his plate in three bites,
33:20stood,
33:20and left.
33:21His chair scraped sharply across the stone floor.
33:24I lowered my head and kept eating.
33:25I similed,
33:26watched his retreating figure.
33:27Who says a Mafia Don can't be a perfect father and husband?
33:34Who says a Mafia Don can't be a
33:34Grazie a tutti
