Ethan called for Enzo and Sabrina and his dad. They came to him and Gabriel too. He look disheveled as the doctor run tests on Aria. She's awake now but still he's pacing back and forth waiting for them. Enzo said that he's going to take care of the twins with Ferdinand.

Then the doctor call Ethan out. The doctor was calm and he look at Aria. She look well now and the flush on her cheek was there. He kisses her.

"What's wrong with my wife? Its over fatigue right?" He asked.

"No." The doctor smiles at him gently. "Congratulations, Mr. Alvarez, your wife is six weeks pregnant."

Ethan's worries washes away and his jaw drops. What? Did he hear it wrong? Aria giggle and scoop his surprised face.

"Your wish come true." Aria said and she kisses his lips. Ethan look at her stomach and caress it.

"Really? It's true?" The doctor nodded. Ethan exhales and holds his chest. He hug her tightly.

Sabrina and Gabriel was waiting outside and soon, Ethan breaks the good news to them. Sabrina frown and stood. She left Ethan without saying anything at all. Ethan look at Gabriel who gave him a pity look. Shame on Ethan. How dare he celebrate after rushing them to the hospital?

"Babe!" Ethan call after Sabrina. "Hey!"

Instead of visiting Aria they decides to assist with the twins a little. How could Ethan not know that Aria was pregnant all this time? He should've known after not using contraceptives with her. Ethan bring Aria back to the private room and told her to rest and let Enzo and Ferdinand take care of the babies.

Sabrina felt like she's been stabbed many times. She envy her brothers who could have lot of babies by not suffering on the labor. But anyway, her husband is there to comfort her. Soon, the effectivity of her shots will end and they could have lot of babies as they want.

Sabrina's phone chimes and she stood. It's time to fit on her gown for the reunion. Gabriel said goodbye to them and told them he will send someone to bring foods and other stuffs. Gabriel drive the Mustang Bullitt back to the villa.

"Are you upset?"

"I will have lot of babies with you." She said determined. Gabriel smile and patted her head.

"Don't force yourself. You are young and we can make a lot of it. Besides, I haven't spoiled you too much yet. I am still enjoying our freedom."

Sabrina was in deep thought. Today was supposed to be Francisco's visit to Veronica's condo unit. She wonder how Veronica was doing now.

♥♥♥

Veronica took Tony's tablet the one he left and check on his WhatsApp where he got notifications from a group chat with friends. Tony's birthday is near. Just two days away. Veronica immediately contact Rolex Store and then check her bank. She still have a few millions.

She put on some decent yet simple casual clothes from her wardrobe and put her sneakers on. She took Tony's car key and use his sports car all the way to McKinley to Rolex store. She choose the watch that would suit him carefully and she ask for printing words at the back. She paid for it and waited for it until they printed the message for him. She then went to grocery store as she buy food for tonight. It didn't take long and she stay on bed without eating waiting.

She didn't notice when Tony arrive home and kiss her. He saw how upset and worn out she was so he felt bad leaving her.

"Are you okay?" He kisses her top head.

"Yeah." She sat up like a zombie and went to the kitchen. Since she already prepare the ingredients for their little dinner, it's easy for her to make the creamy chicken white pasta. It's good for four people and Tony eat quite a lot.

"You are quiet."

"I just meet my bastard real father." Tony stop and she keep on sipping on her wine.

"You mean, the parents you say that are dead aren't your real parents?" He asked.

"Yeah. You can say that. You can even say that they never exist. My mother is dead. The bastard found me. My grandfather is ready to give his all to me. I don't want anything of it, Tony." She said. There's no recorder inside the unit. The food and clothes that Francisco gave to her has been inspected and there's no bug, so she's free to tell him everything.

"So, what's your real name?" He asked.

"Vanessa Ivanov. I don't want to take my bastard father's surname. Ivanov was my mother's last name." Veronica mutter and Tony's eyes widens as he sink all of those words. Ivanov owns the biggest assassin organization. He wanted to be wrong about her. She said that she killed lot of people. Was it really true?

"Vanessa or Veronica, nothing will change. Do you know that Ivanov owns a big assassin organization?" Tony asked. Veronica look up at him. "If you are Calvin Ivanov's granddaughter then—you are the heiress."

Veronica didn't say anything at all. She took all of the dishes and put it in the sink. Tony didn't know how to comfort her at that moment yet he walk toward her and wrapped her in his strong muscular arms. He kisses her neck.

"Do you want it? You know that I can give you wealth. A lifetime luxury living."

"Tony…"

"Hmm."

"Do you still love me?" She asked looking far away.

"What are you talking about? Of course I still love you. And it is hard to change."

"That's not my biggest darkest secret." She murmur as she hold his arm around her. She look at her ring on her left ring finger. Did she deserve it? Did she deserve his love?

"Whatever it is—I don't care." He kisses her neck. "Let's go to Surigao in two days." She knows what he meant. So she didn't think twice before agreeing to it. It's his birthday after all and she is surely lucky that he wants to spend it with her.

"So I could get to wear my bikini." She said seductively. He groan and hug her tightly.

"Honey, I have to take a shower first before I eat you up. Besides, am quite full from the dinner you made. I'll be with you soon." He kisses her lips and left. Veronica chuckle.

"I thought you wanted to help me with dishes." She said aloud. Then he came back.

"Oh, sorry." He started removing his shirt so he could start.

"I'm just kidding. Go grab a shower so you can relax." She kisses his lips. "I'll be unemployed soon." Tony smiles.

"Then I can drag you anywhere now that you are unemployed?" He caress her beautiful curves. She smile at him.

Veronica finish the dishes and receive a call from Sabrina telling her to get ready for tomorrow. She knows what Sabrina meant. After she took a shower, she join him on the sofa. He's watching some nerdy stuff as she cuddle on him.

"Let's settle a dinner tomorrow." She said. "They want to meet you."

"Okay. Dad will be there then." Veronica nodded. Maybe it's not bad after all. To be with him until her mission ends.
