His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Chapter 120

Chapter 120

I pulled my hoodie over my head and made my way out of the car to walk to the apartment complex where Gina was staying at. The girls had pulled some strings and went as far as getting me the address.

“Serena?” I heard an all-familiar voice before I even got to the door. I took a deep breath and turned around to look at the person I hadn’t seen in a while,

“Hey, Johnny?” I smiled. It seemed as if my camouflage outfit was not making that much noise. “Serena, what are you doing here?”

“What are you doing here?” I turned the question back around, I knew what I was doing here, but why was he at Gina’s apartment?

“I’m here to check up on her,” Johnny spoke as if he knew that sentence wouldn’t sit right with me. “Of course you are.” I chuckled. “You don’t have time to check up on me. You don’t have time to check up on your cousin –I don’t know if you know her, by the way, but her name is Siena.” I rolled my eyes at him.

He had vanished entirely, and the one time I did see him was to check up on Gina. “Serena, it isn’t like that,” Johnny explained. “Christian send me here to=”

“Christian?” I frowned my eyebrows. “Christian, send you here? This is getting crazier by the second.”

“Serena, listen!” Johnny stopped me. “I came here to make sure she’s quiet-because Christian asked me too, not everyone is working against you?”

“So you came here to kill her?” I asked, frightened. What kind of person was Christian? And was I event better when I was the one who wanted her dead?

“What, no? Who do you think we are?” Johnny asked, confused. So Christian didn’t send him here to kill her. “I don’t know, the mafia?” I mumbled.

Johnny rolled his eyes and grabbed my arm as he pulled me away. “Christian is fixing your mess, so please tell me what you are doing here?”

My mess?

“First of all, it’s the mess he created, and second of all, I came here to apologize,” I told him. “Apologize?” Johnny sighed. “Serena, if you’re only going to make things worse…”

“I’m not. I came here to apologize.” I folded my arms. Johnny did not have to know the real reason as to why I was cleaning my image. “Is Gina expecting you?” He asked.

“No, I just came here to apologize, and I don’t need your permission for that,” I spoke before I brushed. past him. “Why would you apologize?”

“Because I’m a good person.” I easily lied. Johnny and I pushed the button at the same time as we both glared at each other. “Christian’s protecting you, don’t do anything stupid.”

my daughter?” I rolled my eyes and pushed him aside when the door opened. Gina was obviously expecting Johnny.

Johnny scoffed. He seemed annoyed by me, and he had never looked at me that way. If the Lamberti’s were able to change Johnny’s mind, then they were capable of a lot. “I like Luca better than you, by the way,” I told him as we walked to the elevator. “Serena, what’s going on with you
