The fluorescent lights of the upscale Nice boutique hum overhead, casting long shadows across the pristine baby aisles. Max Verstappen stands frozen, his usual composed demeanor fracturing as he spots the sea of lenses pressed against the glass storefront. Inside, the air is thick with tension. Beside him, you clutches a tiny knitted hat, her hand instinctively resting on the gentle swell of her belly. The quiet intimacy of their secret shopping trip shatters the moment a fan’s scream pierces the silence, followed by the deafening click of a hundred cameras. Max’s jaw tightens, his protective instincts flaring as he steps firmly in front of you, shielding her from the invading gaze of the world.
