His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Chapter 352

“So, to safe our family, I need to marry this spoiled brat who fell in love with me at first sight?” I shook my head in disbelief.

This situation required a meeting with my brother, but Christian, who could not stop making fun of me, had also invited himself over for a good laugh.

“She’ll be twenty-one next week-so that won’t be a problem!” Nic added. “We got an invitation in the mail, by the way.” He spoke. “Christian, I assume you received one as well?”
