His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Chapter 149

Chapter 149

“Chri-” I called out as I ran into the mansion with a big smile on my face, but that smile had disappeared when I opened the door, only to see Christian’s grandpa. Franco.

He chuckled at the change in my behavior and grabbed Siena from my arms. “I know you have Siena, but it’s not a playground, is it?”

Siena seemed calm in his arms, which made me even more uncomfortable. Sometimes I couldn’t wait until I could at least communicate with my daughter, so I could tell her that her great-grandfather was a bad man.

Neither of us said a word, but unlike a few months ago, I wasn’t afraid to look him in the eye. He might’ve scared all the others, but he would absolutely not be scaring me away. Not anymore.

Christian was on the phone and hadn’t even noticed my presence. He was too focused, and he couldn’t protect me this time. “How have you been?” Franco asked.

“Good?” I replied. “And how about you? How have you been?”

“Amazing.” Franco spoke. “So I’ve understood that you’re moving back in? It’s amazing how you get things done.”

“Get things done?” I chuckled. “Christian was the one begging me to come back home, so it’s amazing how he gets things done.” I corrected him while Franco laughed at my statement and focused his attention on

Siena.

“There something wrong with that crazy mommy of yours!” He cooed and tapped her nose while Siena burst into fits of laughter. I couldn’t stand this man, and after hearing about what Dario had been through, I lost every bit of respect for this devil. I would be taking him down, but it was not his time yet.

“Listen,” I spoke as I forced a polite smile onto my face. “I don’t want any trouble, and everyone decided to move on from the past, so how about we start over?” I suggested, but Franco was mocking me from up close.

“Christian might not see through your act, but I can. I’m not going to argue with you because you’re just a child-but I will keep a close eye on you.” Franco spoke. His words were loud and clear.

He probably thought I only got back with Christian to bully the Lamberti’s, and yes, that was one of the reasons, but it was not the most significant reason. We got back together because we loved each other and couldn’t live without each other.

The moment Christian noticed my presence, he was in a hurry to end the phone call and glared at Franco. “She looks exactly like you.” Franco commented. “If it weren’t for the eyes, I would’ve pushed for a DNA

test.”

“I’m sorry?” I snapped. It brought me back to Cesca, back in the old days. I remember Christian’s grandparents being out of town when I had dinner at the Lamberti’s for the first time, and thank god they were. At that time, I wasn’t an Alfonzo, but squirrel the stripper, which made everything even worse.

“It’s a joke. Old people are allowed to joke.” Franco laughed. That was right. He was old, so he didn’t have that many years to go, right?

“Hey, stop bothering her!” Christian, who had finally ended the phone call, warned Franco. “Bothering? All I’m doing is holding my granddaughter.” Franco laughed as he handed Siena over to Christian. He refused to hand her over to me, and it was sickening.
