He threw her out of the house because she was pregnant with a girl, but spent a fortune to have his mistress give birth to a boy in a private clinic. However, on the very day of the birth, something happened that would change his destiny forever.

That night, Elise realized that the man she loved no longer existed.

Two days later, with a heavy heart, she boarded a TGV heading to Annecy with an old suitcase. Her mother awaited her at the station. Seeing her arrive so pale, Madame Fontaine gently embraced her.

“My love… you’re home. Let me take care of you.”

Meanwhile, in Lyon, Marc hurried to Chloe Morel’s house, his young assistant. She was also pregnant and had assured him the baby would be a boy. Marc felt almost victorious.

“Finally, an heir!” he proudly repeated.

He spared no expense: a private suite at a clinic, luxury services, over 8,000 euros already paid.

The day of the birth arrived with a huge bouquet of tulips. When the baby was born, he immediately sent a photo to all his contacts:

“My son! He looks just like me!”

But his joy was short-lived.

A nurse asked him to sign some documents. He confidently walked toward the neonatal area… until, in front of the door, he saw Madame Fontaine, arms crossed and a sharp gaze.

“Madame Fontaine? What are you doing here?” he stammered.

Calmly, she placed a box of baby formula on the table.

“I came to see my son-in-law. And the child you’re so proud of.”
