Christian “What does the letter say?” All eyes were on Christian as he read the letter which came from his uncle. Nearing the end of the meeting, a letter had been delivered. “It says he wants us to sign over all the businesses, and if not…we should prepare ourselves,” Christian informed. It was
“Not today.” “What?” Dario spoke, startled. Although Christian could appreciate his work ethic, he also knew when enough was enough. After hearing Serena’s words over the phone yesterday, Christian had a clear wake-up call. There was no reason for him not to visit her or his dad. If he could find
“So, what should I do?” I squeezed Vince’s hand. It wasn’t as if he could hear my rant, but it was nice to talk to someone who couldn’t go against me. Even if he were awake, he would still not go against me.“If only you were here to answer.” Carmen’s joke about me being pregnant wasn’t too far fro
“Uh…” “I’m pretty sure he has a crush on her.” Christian took over. “This one is one-sided, though…I hope.” This one is one-sided? What’s up with that comment? Dario and I kept quiet, while Christian did not seem to realize the impact of his words. I told him already that I wasn’t into Dario, and
“Isn’t he adorable?” Isobel gushed over Beau, who was busy playing with Siena. He laid her down on the grass and pulled her legs while Siena burst into fits of laughter. “Sure.” I breathed. If him calling my daughter an evil little demon was adorable to her, then so be it. Today was the first day
Beau ruffled his hand through my hair. “Stop overreacting. We see each other almost every day.” “No, we don’t,” I whispered to myself. A lot had changed. This whole situation with Berto had sucked the life out of everyone, especially since he was someone unpredictable who couldn’t care less about a
I took a deep breath. “I think I might be pregnant…again.” Beau blinked his eyes. “Think?” “Yes,” I nodded. “I’m too scared to take a pregnancy test.” There was a moment of silence as I waited for my brother’s reaction. “Well,” Beau chuckled. “I hope you’re not pregnant.” “Excuse me?” I spoke, w
I frowned at his weird question. “Do you want to smell?” Beau stepped back. “N-no, I’m good. Thank you.” He blushed. “What now?” I put the test on the cabinet and sank to the floor while Beau did the same. “Now we wait.” Only a few minutes had passed, but it felt like forever. The last time I wai
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
