“About Christian?” Vincenzo frowned his eyebrows. I felt bad because it seemed as if he had expected msomething else, but he was the only one who could give me answers at the moment. “What about him?”“Is he ignoring you because you threw a drink on Francesca?” He asked while my eyes went big. “News tfamilies know about it.” He continued.

“He’s not ignoring me…we’re okay.” I smiled.

“Well for starters, you said you’ve known him for a long time. What was he like when he was younger?” Iquestion which popped up in my head. For some reason, I could not imagine a young Christian.

Vincenzo laughed and sighed while shaking his head. This was going to be good.

“We grew up with a lot of children from all the other families.” He began. I thought about Isobel who hadwas a family friend.

“No matter which game we were playing, Christian always had to be the boss. He was the youngest out oeveryone followed him and no one questioned him.” Vincenzo explained. “So it’s not very different fromnow?”

“No, not really,” Vincenzo confirmed. “Although, when he’s not working or not in a bad mood he’s actuaperson. He loves to joke around, laughs a lot-“

“Laughs a lot?” I chuckled and thought about the standard cold look on his face. “Yes, he laughs a lot…hepeople and is even a bit childish I would say.” Vincenzo smiled. The way he was speaking about Christianwonder if the fight they had was really about me and I couldn’t help but feel guilty.

“I guess one thing is different.” Vincenzo suddenly changed his mind. “Instead of looking up to him, theydown on him. He’s not that ambitious so him taking over his dad got a lot of people angry.”

Hearing Vincenzo’s side made me feel sorry for Christian. While I was worried about a few girls looking dhad all eyes on him— waiting for him to fail just as he had told me.

“How about…your dad?” I asked, unsure whether his dad or his mom was the powerful one. “Dad.” Vinceconfirmed.

“My mom passed away when I was younger.” He explained with a forced smile on his face. Why did I alwthe line?

“I don’t know my parents.” I quickly sulked to get myself some pity points.
