Chapter 199

Christian

“Someone tell me what the hell he’s doing here,” Christian whispered as he walked down the stairs. He didn’t even have the energy to look at all the strangers setting up equipment for the party as his eyes could only see Luca.

What was he up to?

“Cousin!” Luca opened his arms. Christian’s eyes met Johnny’s, who shook his head in disapproval. “Luca?” Christian forced a smile on his face and pulled him into a hug.

He didn’t want to push him away, but he felt suspicious, and the last thing he wanted was for him to be at the party when he knew what he was capable of. “I didn’t know you were also coming.”

“See, you invited Johnny to supervise the party, and you told him not to leave me alone, so here I am.” Luca shrugged. Johnny had an apologetic look on his face, but Christian had no time to worry why he was or wasn’t here.

“Dario, I haven’t seen you in a while.” Luca smiled at him. Christian was curious about Dario’s reaction, but Dario stepped forward and placed his hand on Luca’s shoulder. “It’s good to see you,”

Yes, I bet it is.” Luca chuckled. “You never really liked me-but that’s okay.”

“That’s not true.”

“Oh, but it is,” Luca responded. “If I remember correctly, I was the one who stood up for you at the party, all those years back, and now you’re practically married to Christian.”

“That’s not true.” Christian defended Dario. “Look, I know you have a lot to say, but can we not do it today?”

Luca scoffed. “Not today? Then when do you want to do it?”

Christian felt anxious just by hearing those words and wondered what he meant by that. Was he up to something?

“Christian, look at my dress!”

Christian turned around to look at Carmen, who walked towards the group with a big smile on her face. What he really wanted to tell her was to walk away, but he did not want to ruin her special day.
