His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Chapter 352

Vincenzo

“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.

If anything, this alliance would not be good for the Lambertis as it would potentially challenge their

power.

“I thought I’d let her down gently,” I whispered, befuddled. I knew she had a thing for me because she had been stalking me at the wedding. I tried to keep my distance when Stella introduced her to me, and I told her I wasn’t looking for a relationship, but still…

“And after begging her daddy to arrange a marriage with me, she has exactly proven that point.”

“You need to give us another reason.” Christian laughed.

“She’s twenty.” I cracked my brains. She was too young and immature to be my wife. It was a surprise she didn’t ask me to marry her on the spot that evening. “She’s not even allowed to drink, I mean come on— I’m twenty-six!”

“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?”

Christian confirmed. “It looks like I’ll have to up my
