Dominik POVRemaining silent, I drank the last sip of my wine glass, sighing calmly and feeling somewhat drowsy. It had been a complicated and rather heavy week, and the next day things didn't seem to get any better, as I would have to return home after almost 5 months of absence, in which I had been traveling all over Europe and part of Asia to settle long-pending business matters.So with all my company's problems completely resolved, I could return. But I had no idea why, I was in no mood at all to return home, wanting to stay in that beautiful hotel in Paris, where I had such good liquor and a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower. An ethereal scene.My relaxation is interrupted when my phone rings next to me on the couch. With some regret, fearing it is something about work, I pick it up and decide to answer, "Hello?"This was my personal phone, the new one I had bought at the start of my trip, so it allowed me to be a little more casual in using it, as

Victoria POVFeeling very elated, I can't help but pace back and forth in my room, trying to contain the excitement I feel right now in my whole chest for knowing that I'm going to get to see Dominik after such a long time.I know, I know I shouldn't be excited about all the things he's done to me, like... Abandoning me at such a delicate time like I'm going through right now. However, I just can't be mad at him. I don't know if when he comes back we will ever be in a relationship again, but by bringing one of my hands to my bulging belly, I can only think of one thing.Dominik has to know about his son.I know that even if Dominik no longer loves me or is still angry with me, he will love his child, so it is very important that he sees him, that he even knows my condition and knows that I am pregnant.So taking a deep breath, I try to calm myself down, psyching myself up for the moment when I have to leave my house to go to the airport to pick him

Dominik POVWith a sigh, I stepped off my plane as one of the flight attendants opened the door for me. As usual, the pilot and the other members of the airport welcomed me cordially, words that I responded to with polite smiles and a few nods of my head.It had been quite a long trip, so I wasn't so eager to feign sympathy or friendliness to the people around me. I just wanted to get to my penthouse for the first time after so long, take a bath, and then sleep. I had to be rested for tomorrow to pick up Victoria at her parents' house.Amid the winter cold that was hitting the airport, I entered through one of the side doors, wherein the distance I saw a large entourage of people waiting for me, which made me sigh with some anger. I didn't feel like seeing anyone right now, as I am extremely married, yet mom brought many important people from the company, even though I had expressly told her that I didn't want her to. Truly, my mother is so irritating at times.

Dominik POVRemaining in a sepulchral silence, I stare at the hospital door, observing how it has been still for a long time, which only makes me think... What's going on in there?I think it's been hours, days, even years; since they took Victoria inside that complicated surgery. But I know that's just a perception of my frightened mind, since it's only been a few minutes since Victoria's surgery started, and I know that the situation is not about to end.Standing in the almost empty waiting room, with other patients and other people who are also anxiously waiting for their relatives, what I least wanted to happen that night happens."We are Victoria Miller's parents, where is my daughter, how is she?" asked Victoria's mother upset, approaching a confused nurse standing around.I guess there is no excuse since after knowing that Victoria is in this hospital, in such a delicate situation, the last thing they could do was to behave calmly. Victoria'

Dominik POV It felt like the worst pain I could ever imagine, as knowing that my beloved wife, that Victoria... Was in that state, was undoubtedly painful. "We were able to save Miss Miller's life, however, I must inform you that we had to perform a dangerous surgery to save her, as, during the accident, your wife, unfortunately, had a severe blow to her head, which caused an internal hemorrhage that we had to fix," The doctor told us when he called us into his office to try to explain the situation in a slightly calmer way, "But to fix that hemorrhage, we had to enter a very deep part of Miss Miller's brain". Sitting in front of the doctor's desk, what surprised me most about that situation was that Victoria's parents were so calm while we were together in the same space, so I remained calm, still not knowing the gravity of the situation I was dealing with Victoria's condition in this way. "How deep doctor?" asked Victoria's mother with visible distr
