His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Chapter 211

Chapter 211

“Am I annoying you? You haven’t said a single word to me the entire drive.” I smiled as I placed my hand on top of Christian’s. He seemed irritated, and his answers were short and off.

I had asked countless questions, from the meeting to his grandpa to the reason why Dario left without greeting me-but all he could do was shrug his shoulders. “You’re not annoying me. I’m just tired.” Christian smiled.

It was a fake smile, and I knew it because it was not unusual for him. It made me wonder whether Christian and Dario had a falling out or if perhaps he didn’t want to be part of the family business. “So what did Dario say? Did he bother you?”

“No, it’s all good.” Christian cleared his throat. “He was actually really positive about the offer, and he accepted it right away.”

“That’s good.” I smiled. “I’m happy for you.”

Christian scoffed and tightened his grip around the steering wheel. “Happy for me or for you?”

I tried to be the bigger person, so I kept my mouth shut and ignored his comment. Of course, I was happy for him. What else could I gain out of this?

“Poor Siena, she has been sleeping all day.” I pouted as my eyes moved to the baby. “Do you think she’s sick?”

“I don’t know, Serena,” Christian spoke, annoyed. “If you play with her in the middle of the night, then yes -she’ll be tired during the day.”

I’d had it with him and his negative remarks. I really tried to work on our relationship, but how could I do that when it only came from my side? How could I do that when he wouldn’t tell me what his issue was?

“Christian, tell me, what’s wrong with you?” I demanded an answer. Anyone who would’ve seen his facial expression could tell that something was bothering him.

“Nothing, I’m good.” Christian shrugged a bit too nonchalantly.

“See, I don’t like it when you get like this,” I admitted. Maybe if we could communicate just like yesterday, he would apologize, and everything would be okay again.

“Like what?”

“When something is bothering you, and you decide to take it out on me-

“Look, I’m sorry.” Christian sighed. Was he sorry? That was not quite the words I hoped for because it wasn’t something I hadn’t heard before.

“Yes, you’re always sorry.”

A long sigh had escaped from Christian’s lips, and I could tell that whatever his issue was, he would not be able to control himself any longer.

“You can’t blame me for being angry if all you’ve been talking about for the past minutes is Dario, Dario, Dario. After all, you said about him. You really can’t blame me.”

“Just like I can’t blame you for letting Gina into our lives despite…you know.”
