“Why doesn’t he lock his door?” Beau complained. He always had something to complain.“Beau!” Isobel yelled out and flew in his arms while all I wanted was to disappear from earth. Christian stood on the opposite side of me and took a look at Siena before he glanced back at Beau. There was nothing m
“I promise you, it was a joke.” He chuckled. “I forgave you for being a cheater, and I don’t care about the fact that you used to sleep around with my fiancee and still hang out with her or that you left Vince out there to die while you carried out your brother and barely visit him.” He smiled.“All
“Testing him?” Isobel frowned. “Why would be testing him?”That was the same thing I wanted to know. “Who knows.” I sighed. “Beau always does everything with a reason, so we’ll see.”“Enough about me. How is the baby?”“Annoying.” Isobel chuckled. “It’s annoying me, physically and mentally. I’m scar
“Could it?” I wondered. “Yes, the Alfonzo’s can keep an eye on the Lamberti’s and the Lamberti’s can keep an eye on the Alfonzo’s—that’s how they will see it.”“I’ll think about it.” Beau smiled while Christian laughed at him. “Now you’re making it seem like I’m the one who asked you for help.”“Tha
“You love me?” Christian asked. I hadn’t even noticed my words until he called me out for it. “Yes, I love you, and I want us to be together again—but we shouldn’t rush things this time. We can’t just jump into a relationship again.”“I understand. I’ll wait,” Christian spoke, excited. “Take all the
“No baby today?” Marc pouted as I stepped into the car. Just as promised, I would be joining Marc to follow up on his lead on Dario.“You don’t even like Siena.” I laughed as I couldn’t shake off the image of Marc’s unfortunate look every time he saw her. “It’s not that I don’t like her. I just get
“Ignore him.” Marc spoke. “He’s just old-fashioned—““But you think he’s right?” I asked. Instead of telling me that it wasn’t true, Marc was defending Franco. “I think you can be both, but that’s not your fault. That’s his.” Marc spoke.“He became so attached to you that he cannot live without you
“He’s doing good, but he doesn’t live here anymore—he moved with his dad?” Marc asked. The look on Nina’s face had changed, and the smile on her face had disappeared. “Monster,” Nina whispered. “His dad is a monster.”Marc and I gave each other a look. Mauro seemed to be such a nice man, but now she
Hey everyone,This is the end of Christian and Serena’s story. Thanks for following me on this journey, and please know I’m grateful for all of you.I remember freaking out over reaching 10K views, and somehow we ended up here. (!?) (Hopefully, more to come.)As I’m still new to this publishing styl
“Oh, right.” Stella clapped her hands when the girl finally released a loud cough. “I would like to introduce you to Oscar Morales’ daughter, Aria.” The Morales’ They were new in the city and led by Oscar Morales with the help of his mysterious only daughter, who I had never seen before. Today was
“Out and about.” I sighed, exhausted. “Drunk.” “Where’s your ex-fiancee?” Vince chortled, nudging Beau’s shoulder, and a sigh escaped from my brother’s lips. Not surprisingly, the relationship and engagement between my brother and Isobel didn’t last. All it took for him to break her heart was one
The children ran to their grandma and grabbed her hand. Besides Christian, the kids also listened to their grandma. Who wouldn’t? Cesca could be really scary if she wanted to. “The two of you should hurry as well. We’re all waiting!” “We’ll be there soon. Don’t worry.” Christian nagged his mom, kin
Three Years Later I squeezed the ball gown dress around my body, desperate to see my little bump. Promising to get married within three years while not being pregnant was a stupid thing to do. Especially when I had a husband who was a bit too obsessed with expanding our family as if a three-year-o
“What do you have to say?” I leaned against the railing. Christian reached for something behind his back and showed me a small red box while I was still confused about what was happening. Was he going to propose to me…again? He opened the box, revealing a rose gold diamond ring that suited my tast
“Right!” The woman agreed. “He can’t even take a compliment without doing that weird thing with his—“ “Eyes!” I finished her sentence, laughing. “The blinking thing?” “Yes!” “Wait—how do you know Dario?” The thought had suddenly occurred to me. By the looks of it, she knew him very well. A bit to
Hours had passed, but Christian had yet to move a muscle. Many had either left the graveside in tears or had stepped out to take a breather, but not Christian. “It’s okay to cry, Christian.” I wrapped my arm around him, leaning into his chest. “If you want to yell, bawl—punch someone…I’m here.” I s
“Thank you.” Cesca’s lips trembled in fear at the new nickname I had made up for her. “I appreciate that.” “Now that I know your mother will be in good hands, I can finally be at peace.” Lucio let out a heavy breath. “This is the happiest I’ve been in a while.” Those were the exact words he had sp
