Chapter 146

“What’s going on here?” I whispered to myself as My eyes shifted to the moving vans. I was curious and wondered who was moving in because it clearly wasn’t me. What was Christian doing?

“Excuse me,” I spoke to one of the men and patted him on his shoulder.

“Who’s moving in?” I asked as I stared at the box in his hands. “No one.” He smiled. “We’re renovating a

room.”

“Oh, really?” I spoke, surprised. “Thanks.”

It seemed like Christian did not want to waste any more time and wanted me to move back as soon as possible. I smiled at the idea of Christian being desperate and made my way inside. “Chrissie!” I called out He hated that nickname, and cringed whenever his nieces used to call him that, but I thought it was cute.

“Serena!” Christian called out and quickly found his way towards me. I opened my arms to pull him into a hug, but he walked past me with a confused and disappointed look on his face. “Where is my baby?” He

asked.

“She’s with Carmen.” I rolled my eyes. “Can I also get some of your attention? Or am I not as important as Siena?” I chuckled. Christian turned around and grabbed my hands. “It’s not that I don’t want to see you. Please don’t misunderstand!” He spoke, ashamed, and pulled me into a hug. “I love you, and I love Siena.”

“Thanks” I smiled. “I love you, and I love Siena.“

“It feels like I’m watching a bad romance movie,” Marc interrupted us. I expected Christian to pull away like he usually did after his friends made fun of him, but he didn’t and pulled me in closer. “If you can’t take it, you should find someone yourself,” Christian spoke, “Your problem shouldn’t be our problem.”

Marc chuckled and walked away without saying another word other than mumbling that we looked cute. “Marc has always stood behind us, hasn’t he?” I commented. He was the only person on Christian’s side. who I could genuinely trust because I knew he would never turn on me. Even Johnny turned on me at some point. “He’s more loyal to you than he is to me,” Christian spoke. “But I don’t mind. It’s a good thing.

“It is.” I agreed. “But why are you so tensed? Is it because you don’t want to talk about Dario and your uncle?” I asked. He seemed nervous from the very second he walked out, and I was wondering what it might’ve been. “No, it’s not Dario or my uncle.”

“Okay?” I laughed. “Then what is it? Is it because of Siena? Because I can bring her over later if you want to

“Serena, I have to tell you something.” Christian sighed. Sentences like these never worked out well, and the last time our conversation started like that, I was in for a real surprise.

“Okay?” I forced a smile onto my face. “Whatever it is, you can tell me.”

“It’s about Gina,” Christian spoke. “As you know, I moved her into an apartment. Please don’t hate my dad -but he cares about her well-being, so he’s making me send her money-”
