A mistaken call bridges the gap between a destitute mother in a rural clinic and her estranged husband, a feared billionaire. His voice, sharp with controlled rage, orders her to stay. Minutes later, the sky shatters as a helicopter roars overhead. Armed men secure the war-zone-like area before he steps down. His eyes lock onto her, then drop to the twins in her arms. Knees buckling, he whispers of his search, while she recalls the prison he sent her to. Regret flashes across his face as he gently touches a baby’s cheek, vowing no one will ever let them cry for milk again.
