Dimitri had taken a break from work and was looking after his wife. There was an important meeting which Gabriel was not qualified to attend so Dimitri has decided to have the meeting through Skype.
Aurora was eating fruits watching a rom-com movie and he had gone to his study room and told her that he would be back in an hour.
When he came back Aurora was in the bathroom throwing up, and a few seconds later she became dizzy. Luckily, he was near and rushed to her side before she fell.
Dimitri immediately brought her to the hospital and when the Russo family heard she was sick they came to see her.
"Mr. Santoris as I informed your wife, this is a risky pregnancy. Even though there is still half a month for the due date because of some complications we have to get the baby out," the Doctor said.
This doctor was one of Aurora's colleagues and friends who had repeatedly advised her not to continue her pregnancy.
Dimitri was rooted to the spot and felt like his worst nightmare may have come true.
"Doctor, then what about Aurora?"Dimitri's voice was shaking.
"The situation is very unpredictable. We will try to do our best so that both mother and child can be safe," the doctor went inside the ward.
"Dimitri, what is the doctor saying? You let Aurora have a child even though it's risky. Is a child so important to you," Nicholas snapped.
He was so angry at Dimitri thinking he wanted another heir so he put his sister's life on line.
"Aurora hid it from me, and by the time I knew, it was too late. Aurora is and always will be more important than anyone," Dimitri fumed.
"If something happens to my sister I will never forgive you," Nicholas threatened with bloodshot eyes.
"I won't forgive myself either," Dimitri said, tightening his fists.
Dimitri and Aurora's parents learned about her pregnancy having complications . Everyone was worried about Aurora's health and was a little bit angry that Aurora did such a foolish thing.
Fortunately a few hours later, a baby boy was born and since it was a premature baby he was kept in an incubator.
Dimitri hurried his footsteps to see Aurora lying on the bed. All the color of her face was drained and she looked pale and tired . She gave a weak smile as Dimitri sat next to her.
"Sweetheart you scared the shit out of me. Promise me you will never hide anything from me ever again," A lone tear escaped from Dimitri's eye.
Earlier Dimitri was pacing around like a mad man, his heart was beating so fast. He was petrified thinking he may lose the person he loved the most. When the doctor announced that both Aurora and the baby were safe, he felt like his soul came to life again.
Aurora has never seen Dimitri like this, like he was about to lose everything. Not even when she got to know that Dimitri had taken advantage of her drunken state and she told him that she wants a separation. He was sad, angry and begged her to stay but he was confident that he would win her back. Aurora truly felt sorry for putting Dimitri in such a tough situation.
"Dimitri, I am sorry, I promise to discuss everything with you from now on," Aurora replied.
"Aurora I love you and remember your place in my heart is irreplaceable," Dimitri kissed her forehead.
"I love you too," Aurora whispered.
"Dimitri, where is the baby?" Aurora asked, noticing the cradle next to her was empty.
"Don't worry our son is kept in the incubator, we can go and see him but once he gains little weight then he can come home with us," Dimitri assured her.

Sara noticed whenever they came home after seeing the kids there was a sadness in Blake's eyes. Of course he never said anything to her and pretended to be normal but she can easily read her husband's mood.
Blake loved children, he was very patient with them. Tristan's son Travis who was one year old used to climb on Blake's lap and pull his hair or wipe his dirty hands on Blake's designer suit.
