Kicking Gina out was the best decision I ever made, and I couldn’t wait to see whether Christian had the nerve to attack me for it.I walked past the guards with a satisfied smirk on my face and made my way to the kitchen. “Hey, Carmen!” I greeted my little sister and took a seat at the table. “What
We walked to the hallway and stared at each other in awkward silence. I was waiting for Christian to say something while he was waiting for me to open my mouth. “You’re the one who called me here.” I commented.“I’ve been thinking about the way I’ve been treating you, and you’re right,” Christian sp
“It always fascinates me how your dad manages to throw parties within a day.” I gasped as I stared at the people carrying the large boxes filled with decorations.Dario wasn’t here yet, and I couldn’t wait to see his reaction once he found out all of this was for him. “Yes, I know.” Christian agreed
“Weren’t you the one who said we should move it before your uncle gets to it? Who knows what he has planned.”“Yes,” Christian spoke. “I did say that, but grandpa clearly doesn’t know where it is, and apparently he’s been looking for it all this time—““So that means he might have a good idea of whe
“He’s the real crazy one,” Enzo muttered. Dario seemed nervous and stepped back while he fumbled his hands and lowered his head. He suddenly wasn’t that confident anymore, which was a strange thing to see.It was no secret Berto despised his father and probably only had evil stuff to say about Franc
Dario opened up about his childhood and, of course, let out the part about Berto because of Lucio’s presence.He shared everything about his mother, whose family abandoned her because they thought she was crazy, how she raised him all by himself and how Mauro dropped his entire life to take care of
Dario went through everything and told him how Berto had been the one pulling strings, while Franco couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “Not my Berto.” He gasped, surprised, and just like that, every bit of hope he had left to reunite with his son had shattered.“Enzo, you also went through a lot.
“Okay, well—we all need to double our efforts because uncle Berto will blow up the fucking place. Both the warehouse and the club.” Christian spoke, irritated. The idea of it pissed him off, and I understood his feelings. The people working there were all people with families and their lives were al
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
