Christian

“It was Isobel Sala and your brother Enzo,” Carlo spoke.

“They told me to spread the rumor and threatened me that I should never speak of the truth if I want mysafe— they threatened my wife, followed my son to school.” He cried.

“Your brother told me to destroy you in every way possible, a-a-and Isobel told me this should end with bullet through Serena’s head.”

Christian was confused by the names he had spoken, and looked at the man to find a small hint of a lie, banything. Johnny and Luca were just as flustered as he was by those two names. From all people it had tocousin and the one, they trusted the most.

“Fabio must already know by now, I’m so sorry.” Carlo cried.

“See, that was not that hard.” Christian got up from the floor and was frozen by the news he had gotten.them hurt me, please,” Carlo asked and grabbed his leg, but Christian’s mind was numb with total shockHe slowly turned back around and grabbed the gun from the floor— while he tried to eliminate the souncries.

“Christian, when people find out you’ve decided to show a rat mercy or that your own brother betrayed will grow weak. Get rid of this man!” Luca tried to convince him, while Johnny disagreed. “Christian, you promise— and now you have to keep it, even if you kill him now Lucio will still want you to give him a na“Christian, this man can be easily replaced, Enzo is your brother— get rid of this man and protect both Ename.

“All of you, shut up!” Christian yelled out and smacked the gun against the man’s temple.
