Chapter 116

Christian

Gio, who drove behind Christian, jumped out of his car and ran towards the pair.

“Christian, stop it!” He yelled as he held him back. This situation seemed strangely familiar, Gio thought as his mind went to the viral video.

“No, let him hit me. Someone has to take the blame for him being a cheater!” Dario snickered and wiped the blood from his face. “I don’t think the Alfonzo’s will like you any more than they do now when they found out what you did to the person who exposed you.”

“Christian, let’s go!” Gio spoke as he desperately pulled his arm.

“I don’t know what kind of sick game you’re playing, but stay away from my daughter and stay away from Serena and I promise you if you’ll ever hurt her—”

“Hurt her?” Dario laughed out loud and held his stomach. “Have you ever thought of becoming a comedian? My lungs!” He cackled. “I think you have other stuff to worry about, like the Alfonzo’s not letting you see your Siena, for example. Let’s call Matteo Alfonzo and ask him who deserves to bleed. You

or me?”

“I swear to god I will kill you and every single one of those dirty Alfonzo’s. Siena is mine, and she’s a Lamberti!” Christian expressed his anger. Those words weren’t supposed to leave his mouth, but he was not himself at the moment.

“I want you to go home, and I want you to take a nice warm bad, close your eyes, and think to yourself. Did I hurt Serena, or did you hurt her?”

Dario turned around and walked away as he held up his hand. “You and your brother can show yourselves out.” He spoke before he burst out laughing. “You and your crazy accusations.”

“I can’t stand him.” Christian breathed and closed his eyes. “I know, let’s go.” Gio sighed and slammed his arm around his shoulder. “Threatening the Alfonzo’s, are you crazy?”

Dario’s reaction made Christian realize that perhaps his grandfather was right. Dario lived for drama and was waiting for him to react. He wanted him to hit him, and he did not hit him back. It was almost as he was trying to prove a point.

Gio followed Christian all the way home, just to make sure he wouldn’t do anything crazy. “I’m not a baby,” Christian told him.

“But you’re still my baby brother, and I’m worried about you. Dana showed me the video.” Gio explained. The video spread like wildfire, and everyone was after more details as everyone knew this might be the end of the alliance between the Alfonzo’s and the Lamberti’s.

“This is all my fault.” Christian sighed. “I can’t say you’re wrong.” Gio chuckled. “All you had to do was keep it in your pants, then none of this would’ve happened.”
