Chapter 42
"Who sent you?" Stefano just shook his head, laughing. Alessandro starts to hit him again and again. Then he looks at Jake and says,
"Throw him in one of the cells; no food, no water until I can visit him again; take away his jacket and anything to keep him warm". With that, Alessandro walks outside and washes his hands.
"He knows something; we must dig deeper because I am positive Bianca never had a brother. I think he's a child born to a mistress". Johnny nods and says
"We are on it. I will ask around at some of the other mafias I usually do business with; maybe they know something." Jake came out, and the four of them went to the SUV.
"Johnny I have some business of my own to take care of; just drop me at my club," Kevin tells him. Johnny nods and drives to the club. Kevin greeted his friends and went inside. Soon they stop in front of Alessandro's mansion. Alessandro got out and went through the gates. Just as he went inside, he saw Lisa rushing to the bathroom. He quickly followed her and saw her throwing up. He then went and took her hair away, saying, "Alright, we are going to the hospital now; I don't want to hear any excuses." Lisa nods and stands, raising her mouth. Alessandro walks with her and informs Maria and Alice that he's taking Lisa to the hospital. Piero went and got a car, and soon they were on their way to the hospital. "Can I please get a doctor for my wife?" Alessandro asks one of the nurses. The older nurse takes one look at Lisa and helps her to a room. "I will call the doctor for you, Mr. Mancini." With that, she left.
A few minutes later, the doctor appeared.
"Good evening, I'm doctor Ghiara; how can I help you?" She asks friendly questions. Lisa tells her about the vomiting and dizziness she's been having.
"Okay, will you please urinate in this cup?" Lisa took it and went to the bathroom. When she comes out, the doctor takes the cup and tells them she will be back. A few minutes went by when the doctor appeared.
"Well, it seems like you do have a stomach bug", She smiles. "But this stomach bug is going to cause you to vomit a lot, get cravings, and put on weight, and in nine months, it will give both of your restless nights." Lisa looks shocked at the doctor, and Alessandro is confused.
"What are you saying, doctor? Why can't you cure it now?" Alessandro demands.
"Well, you see, I can't because your wife is three weeks pregnant." Alessandro stands there, shocked. Then look at a pale Lisa.
"We are going to be parents?" The doctor congratulated them and gave them a prescription for vitamins. Lisa and Alessandro walk out of the hospital. Lisa looks at Alessandro, afraid of what he's going to say. The car ride home was quiet. Lisa and Alessandro were each busy with their thoughts.
