Leo finally kept calm when the doctor announced Mrs Genovese out of danger. He sat beside Luca whose eyes were closed but Leo knew he was wide awake."Hey," he called but Luca did not react "What's going on in your head?""Nothing." Luca bluntly replied."Nothing? You've got to have a plan at least? The company's falling, Aurora and Andrea are nowhere to be found. There's a lot going on, Luca. How could you be thinking of nothing?"Leo added, "Alex is out of jail as well. He's been waiting for a time like this. My best guess is, he'll strike soon.""I'm waiting for him," Luca subtly said, his attitude non-chalant.Leo stared at his brother's calm nature."As for the company, losing investors doesn't change our lives. It's normal to fall and get back up, stronger than we were." he opened his eyes "I won't do a thing until they make their move. Everything must have changed about our business and the usual life but nothing has changed about me. Don't tell me they don't know who they're a
Waiting by the side of Aurora's bed, Andrea fell asleep and was awoken by the continuous ringing of her phone.With sleepy eyes she easily registered Luca's name displaying on her screen. She instantly became wide awake and stepped out of the room in order not to wake Aurora up.Before she remembered Aurora's request of not telling anything to Luca, she had picked the call."Andrea," Luca sounded worried "Are you okay? Text me your location and I'll be right there."Andrea was surprised and wondered what changed about Luca. Instead of yelling threats at her, he was even worried about her. "Say something!" the voice on the other end yelled and Andrea smiled despite herself."It's the first time you're actually worried about me, Luca.""Don't get excited." Luca hurriedly replied."I'm fine, though but Aurora isn't.""What?" Luca's tone changed drastically "What do you mean? Did Aurora come to you? Did that bastard touch her?!"Andrea swallowed hard and apologized to Aurora in her heart
Since the crash happened few miles away from the hospital, it was only usual that the attention of the nurses and doctors were called for at the sight.Andrea had just stepped out of the hospital's cafeteria with a frown on her face. Since she became pregnant, her hunger increased and she craved things she usually didn't eat. Now she wanted a fruit salad, but they didn't have it. However, her hunger was forgotten temporarily when she jammed a team of nurses and doctors running outside with stretchers and first aid boxes. There was commotion everywhere and she could see reporters struggling to enter the hospital. She wondered why reporters would be here? Did they already find out that Aurora is here?? She began to run towards the hospital's exit to find out the situation but didn't expect that her husband would be rolled in badly injured, bleeding profusely and unconscious on a stretcher.She screamed unexpectedly and all attention was turned to her. She was easily recognized as the w
Surprise clouded her vision. Luca stepped forward, still holding the report.He said, "When did you find out? And why didn't you tell Leo about it? Andrea, how could you even stay with that devil knowing that you're pregnant? Hasn't this always been your dream?""I only found out today and it's better if Leo doesn't find out as well. He has a wedding to plan and-""Stop being illusional." Luca's tone was flat "Leo was in a tight spot. He never meant to hurt you. He had to make a tough choice and while you're here thinking he chose Sandra over you, he actually chose his child.""Why do y'all keep saying he never meant to hurt me?" Andrea chuckled sadly "Fact is he did! He damn well knew he was married to me before he fucking laid her! He fucking laid her and I wasn't suppose to know about it until the truth got exposed!" she teared up "How do you expect me to believe all these words that are only meant to make me feel better?""And he wouldn't have had to choose the child and break us
Her lips parted and a sad sigh escaped from them. She didn't know Luca would be there, perhaps he was the one who ordered the doctors to harm her children.With this thought in mind, she flared up and began to scream for him to let her go but his grip on her was tight yet gentle. "Aurora, listen to me.""I said to let go, Luca! I don't want to hear anything" she screamed "I already know what you would say and I don't want to stand here and listen to them. Please let me go!"I didn't come here to say anything or to hurt you. I just want you to listen to me. Listen to me!""Aurora, please calm down." Andrea spoke"No, I don't want to hear it. Luca let go, you're hurting me!" despite their pleas, Aurora was still going berserk.Just then, the doctor came from behind Luca. With a straight face, he expressed great disappointment."This is a hospital, Mr Genovese!" he huffed"Accept our apologies, sir." Andrea quickly apologized but the doctor seemed to have a motive. He picked up a sedati
Leo turned and found Luca behind him."How's Aurora?" he asked, ignoring Luca's previous question."Not good, she wants to be alone." Luca explained, ducking his head and catching sight of Andrea."Luca, I need to talk to you." Leo pulled him away from the cafeteria. "About the accident?" Luca said "Alex tampered with the brake. I got a news from my hitman, he said that Alex is brewing a chemical. I've given him the job of finding what chemical and possibly what he wants to use it for."Leo nodded, although that wasn't what he wanted to talk about. He stared at Luca,"Do you notice something different in Andrea?"Luca froze on the spot. He seemed to have forgotten that Andrea is pregnant. With Leo's question, the pregnancy reports jumped back into his memory.Without waiting for Luca's reply, he added "She just munched two wraps of sandwiches. She ordered coffee as well. It's so unusual. I feel like she's put on more weight."Luca went quiet. Leo found it awkward and said."Did you h
The entire Riverdale was going berserk and the doors of Pro-Care hospital was shut for the meantime due to the rage reporters and citizens were displaying.Before the day was over, half the Genovese family had already been hospitalized. Although the citizens demanded to know what exactly was going on, they blamed Aurora for the misfortunes.Leo was pacing in front of the theatre doors. His mother had called and broke the news of Sandra's fall from the top of the stairs and Sandra was immediately admitted into the hospital. Luca had not returned from wherever he went and Andrea stayed with Aurora in her room.It was pretty late and although Aurora was no longer throwing a tantrum, she was awkwardly quiet and just stared through space.Andrea took her hand in hers and caressed it softly."I know it's hard, Aurora and no amount of word will comfort you but please don't be so hard on yourself. Remember you've the other twin to take care of and make sure he's alright?"After a long silence
In the early hours of the next morning, the doctor told the Genovese family that the baby couldn't be saved although Sandra was out of danger.Mrs Genovese couldn't believe her ears. She turned and pointed an accusing finger at Leo, telling him that if he'd been by her side and not Andrea's, the child wouldn't have lost its life."Actually, Mrs Genovese the reports showed excess intake of alcohol by the mother. Even if she didn't fall, it would be a miracle if the child survives on the day of birth. The alcohol had already caused enough damage, the liquor she had taken only exacerbated the situation."Bowing, he said "I'm sorry for your loss" and then turned to leave. Still, Mrs Genovese wasn't convinced. "I hope you're happy now?!" she yelled at Leo "You made the poor girl feel lonely and irrelevant. You'd pushed her into drinking heavily and if you'd been there you would have stopped her! But you weren't! Instead, you chose to stuck to the side of a barren and infertile woman and a
