His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Chapter 115

Chapter 115

Christian

No matter how hard he tried, Christian could not ignore the judgmental looks as he walked through the Lamberti estate.

It was one day after the disaster, and Lucio had requested his presence. Now that everyone was aware of his mistake, Christian knew he was frowned upon and had to work even harder for not only everyone’s respect, but also for something which seemed impossible at the moment, Serena’s forgiveness. He never meant to pick Gina over her, but he wanted to keep Serena safe.

He wanted to protect her good name, and he failed to do so because Serena misunderstood the situation.

He couldn’t care less about how others would see him, and did not care about Gina-but he did care about Serena and did not want her to lose herself.

“Dad,” Christian called out as he entered the room. “Look at what you’ve done.” His grandpa scoffed and took a step back. Christian’s look went from Franco to Lucio as his face went pale after seeing the state his dad was in. He got even skinnier and appeared to be losing more energy by the minute.

“Come here,” Lucio told him while Christian made his way over to the bed. “This is all my fault. I’m so sorry.” Lucio apologized. “I put you under so much stress and forced Gina on you-I really liked her, and I thought she was good for you if I had known…”

“Don’t blame yourself. This is not your fault, and this is why I didn’t tell you. Look at you.” Christian spoke as he held a cloth against his father’s forehead. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you, but I couldn’t fire her after the way you spoke about her.”

“I’m so sorry,” Lucio repeated while Christian shook his head. “Stop it. It’s not your fault!”

“Serena?” Lucio asked. “She must hate me, right?” He gulped. He felt guilty for letting Gina into their household and couldn’t stop thinking about Serena and Siena. “We’re are not together anymore, that’s what she wants so don’t worry about her-worry about your health.” Christian sighed.

He tried everything he could to prevent this from happening, but in the end, it still turned out like this. If he only would’ve told his dad the truth from the start, instead of trying to please an ill man, or if he told Serena the full truth instead of giving her what she wanted to hear-none of this would’ve happened. He only made things worse by protecting the ones he loved.

“What do you mean, not together?” Lucio stressed and coughed. “Dad, calm down-it’s okay.” Christian shushed him and kissed his forchead. “It’s not your fault. It’s all okay.”

“Matteo called me he told me about what happened. It’s all my fault.” Lucio spoke. “Everything is my fault if I had never put you under that much pressure…”

Christian looked into his father’s eyes and wiped away his tears. “You’re not like this. You’re supposed to be strong.

“I don’t want to go like this.” Lucio sighed. “You’re not going anywhere-and I’m fine!” Christian lied. He was a mess, but not in front of Lucio. In front of Lucio, he had to remain healthy and show him not to
