Chapter 143

Alexander woke up later that day, disoriented at first, but he later figured out where he was.

Pain radiated from his upper right abdomen as he tried to sit up sharp enough to force a low groan from his throat. He clenched his jaw, willing himself to push past it, but the effort was futile.

"No. Babe. No. Annie said, rushing over to him with a fake worried expression. "You can't just get out of bed now. You need to rest."

He turned his head toward the door as if expecting someone to walk in with news. The urgency in his chest outweighed the physical pain. He needed to know. Was Emma okay? Was she responding well in the operating room? He had given a part of himself for her-quite literally-and he needed reassurance that it hadn't been in vain.

"Listen to her, brother," Vivian said, stepping forward and gently grabbing his wrist. Her voice was soft but firm, carrying both authority and affection. She had arrived at the hospital after Alexander's surgery and had been quietly watching over him ever since. Now, seeing him awake, her pride swelled beyond control.

"For once, let me take care of things," she continued, her lips curving into a faint smile. "You've done your part."

For the first time, Alexander had shown selflessness, placing someone else's life above his own. She'd known he had it in him, though she'd been too blinded by her anger in the past to see it clearly. Now, she understood-he truly loved Emma. The signs had been there all along, but her resentment had made her ignore them.

"How is she doing?" Alexander asked, turning his gaze on Kevin, who had been standing a bit away from his bed. Every single word was forced out of his mouth. His body hurts more than he had expected, but if it eventually pays off at the end, it was worth it. Kevin straightened, his expression professional but tinged with empathy. "Everything is going as planned, sir," he said. "She's doing fine. The operation is progressing smoothly, but it won't be finished for another six hours. You need to focus on your recovery, sir. She wouldn't want you exhausting yourself like this

Alexander sighed softly, lying more comfortably on the bed now. Kevin's words have put his mind back at rest. It was true he needed to rest. For the first time, he allowed himself a moment of peace. His mind drifted to the twins-his twins. The thought filled him with a sense of pride and joy he hadn't felt before. They weren't just two children he'd admired from afar -they were his flesh and blood. He couldn't wait to hold them again, to be the father they deserved.

Slowly, his vision began to blur again, and he fell asleep.
