"Then who is with Alessandro in the hospital?" she asked anxiously.
"Don't worry." Alexander reassured her. "I have my men watching outside the ICU. Alessandro's bodyguards and his friend Matteo are also there."

Mia felt a wave of relief wash over her at the mention of the security arrangements for her husband. But when she remained silent, Alexander gently asked, "If you want, I can go and stay with Alessandro, petite sccur?"
"No, that's fine. I just called to know about Alessandro's recovery," she murmured.
Alexander paused for a moment before responding, "Mia, the doctors are waiting for him to wake up. Once he does, they'll conduct a proper check-up and give us more information about his recovery," he explained calmly.
Mia sighed. "Alright, say hi to Chloe for me," she said before disconnecting the call, not wanting to intrude on their private time. She knew about her brother's girlfriend but hadn't had the chance to meet her personally. However, Mia couldn't shake the worry gnawing at her. The idea of leaving Alessandro alone in the hospital filled her with overwhelming restlessness. Without Alexander there, who would be watching over Alessandro? Although she knew his men would be guarding him, that didn't ease her concern. Perhaps it was her love for her husband that made her feel so fiercely protective of him. But for some reason, she couldn't shake the feeling of an unknown fear and restlessness that grew with every passing second, so she decided to go be with her mafia husband..
She had been advised by the doctor not to move her hand, but she had already taken a shower, carefully protecting her casted hand. Getting dressed, however, was troublesome, and despite taking painkillers, she still felt some pain due to the unnecessary movement in that hand. But she had to get to the hospital right away. She headed straight to the manor's driveway, where many cars were parked for the duke's family to use at their convenience. Without caring which one it was, Mia chose the first car she saw. She slipped into the back seat after the chauffeur hurriedly opened the door for her and instructed him to drive straight to the hospital.
It was late night and the traffic had been slowed and only a few cars were seen on the way. It didn't take much time for them to reach the hospital. The crowd at the hospital was not as rushed as in the daytime; only a few emergency patients or the hospital staff were present.
Mia hurried to the reception desk, her steps quick and determined despite the dull ache in her casted hand. Her face reflected a mix of worry and urgency as she approached the counter.
"Excuse me," she said in a voice tight with anxiety. "Where is the ICU where Mr. Alessandro Valentino is "being treated?"
The receptionist looked up from her computer, her expression professional and flat. She checked the list before replying. "Take elevator number six and go to the third floor. It will lead you to the wing where our intensive care unit is located.
Mia nodded, a faint smile of gratitude crossing her lips as she murmured, "Thank you," before she added authoritatively, "I am his wife Mrs. Aria Alessandro Valentino. Could you also let me know who the attending nurse is for Mr Valentino tonight?"

The receptionist gazed at Mia intently before her eyes shifted back to her computer. Her fingers flew over the keyboard as she began to check the records. "Please wait a moment, ma'am. Let me find that information for you."
Mia shifted from one foot to the other as her impatient gaze remained fixed on the receptionist's screen. The receptionist finally looked up, her face softening.
"The attending nurse for Mr. Valentino tonight is Nurse Laura. She's highly experienced and has been with us for many years."
"Thank you," Mia.said, nodding. Her heart quickened with anticipation as she made her way to the elevator, eager to see her husband, the man she loved most.
She pressed the call button and waited for the elevator to arrivd. It came promptly, and as she was about to step inside, her eyes caught sight of Matteo coming from the opposite direction.
"Aria?!" he called out, then hesitated, "I mean... Mia!" he corrected himself with an apologetic expression.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
"It's alright, Matteo, you can call me Aria," Mia said, offering a reassuring smile. Matteo nodded in acknowledgment.
"Are you going to see Alessandro?" Matteo asked, gazing at her curiously.
"Yes," Mia replied.
"But they won't let you see him personally," he informed her with a frown, "it's against the doctor's instructions."
