Let’s hope grandpa and grands like you a bit more than your mommy Christian sprike as he held
Xina And made his way to the Allonzo estate
He knew he was unfair but he couldn’t help himself No matter what, he could not come up with a solid reason why Serena would tenore his calls and seeing pictures of her at the club with random men only
made it wo
He believest it was a good idea to send people to check on her because the truth would’ve never come out it he hadn’t seen the pictures He felt pissed and betrayed until he realized that he didn’t have the night to be the way the one who told her to have fun
hway carly in the morning, but he had decided not to call her Christian was aware of his temper and wanted to discuss this matter without yelling, and he could only do that once he was calm
Besides that he beloved that if Serena really wanted to hear his voice, she would’ve called a long time ago. There were other things on his mind, and today would be a busy day It was the day of the transport of the money, Carmen and Luke’s party, and most importantly, the day he would put an end to his uncle’s plans.
“Baby Christian heard from afar
He was best as Milo stuck out his tiny hands and pointed towards Siena Christian sighed in annoyance as he had not expected Emilio to be there. If anyone asked many questions, it had to be him, and Christian was not ready to answer them.
He wasn’t that much of a better har than Serena and was afraid he’d slip up and spill something he shouldn’t, such as his plans for the night.
Milo ran to Christian and hugged his leg while Christian released one hand from Siena’s grip and patted him on his head “Uncle Christian, good morning!” Milo spoke Christian stared at Milo and was surprised by his sudden ability to speak “You can really talk now He chuckled.
“Yes, of course, he can Emilio walked out the door. He grabbed Siena from Christian’s hands and tried to grab her attention. “She’s starting to look more like you, don’t you think?”
“I hope so,” Christian muttered Emilio, who had heard Jus words, loud and clear, frowned at Christian and waited for an explanation “Are you and Serena at it again?”
Christian shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know, Serena always has an issue, and she always expects me to smell what that issue might be-”
“Yes, the two of you are at it again.” Emilio rolled his eyes. “I thought Beau said the two of you were open for counseling What happened!”
What happened!
That was something Christian had also wondered. Everything seemed to be going well, but everything. changed when Serena started to get a voice. He initially didn’t have a problem with it because that’s what he wanted, but he knew the old Serena would’ve never denied any of his calls.
“I know you’re not supervising a bunch of teenagers tonight, so what are you up to?” Emilio asked. “Can you bring her inside? I need to grab her bag.” Christian ended the conversation. Emilio gave him a
suspicious look but went along with it either way. “You’re lucky I was just leaving, but we’ll finish this conversation some other time,” Emilio spoke.
Christian made his way back to the car while Milo followed behind him. “Are you following me?” Christian asked while Milo had a bright smile on his face. “Following you!” He repeated.
Christian laughed at his way of talking and grabbed Siena’s bag from the trunk. “Look!” Milo spoke as the two headed back to the mansion. Christian looked at the toy gun in his hands and couldn’t help but laugh.
He knelt to Milo’s level and rubbed his hand on his shoulder. “Did daddy give this to you?” Christian asked. Milo pointed the toy gun to Christian’s face and pulled the trigger. “Bang! Bang!” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“No, stop it!” Christian scolded him while he covered the toy with his hands. This was exactly what he did. not want for Siena. He didn’t want to be a bad influence. He looked at Milo’s tearful eyes and wondered whether his reaction went a little bit too far.
“No, no-don’t cry!” Christian whispered, but it was already too late. Milo dramatically opened his mouth before he filled the driveway with yells and tears. “Why Christian huffed as he picked him up from the ground.
It wasn’t even a second later before Emilio ran out to see what was wrong with Milo. “Christian, what did you do?” Emilio asked out of instinct.
“I didn’t do anything. Your kid is overreacting.” Christian spoke, annoyed. “He pointed a gun to my face, and I told him to stop it.”
“You made him cry over a toy gun?” Emilio laughed as he took over Milo. “Who did this to you?” Emilio asked. Milo pulled an angry face and pointed his finger towards Christian. “What are you going to do about it?” Emilio continued.
Milo had once again pulled out the toy gun and pointed it at Christian’s face. “Bang!” He laughed, while Christian could not understand what was so funny. He was shocked by Milo’s actions and by Emilio, who had encouraged the toddler.
“If you’re letting your son play with a toy gun despite knowing the business we’re in, you’re disgusting, terrible, stupid, and in need of help,” Christian spoke, annoyed as he brushed past Emilio to make his way inside. “And you’re a bad parent.”
“Yes, because you’re the parent of the year!” Emilio laughed. He could not take Christian’s words seriously, so he could not hold a grudge.
“You’re not even letting Serena spend time with the baby. Siena won’t even recognize her mom in a few years!”
Christian froze and turned around, but Emilio had already walked away. Siena won’t even recognize her mom in a few years. For some reason, those words were a wake-up call as he understood where Emilio was coming from.
He dressed her.
He fed her.
He gave her baths.
He changed her diapers.
He tucked her in bed.
Am I the issue? Christian thought to himself as thousandth thoughts went through his mind.
He felt embarrassed because it wasn’t his meaning to steal Siena away from Serena. It didn’t take him a long time to realize why Serena had been ignoring him. She had been so vocal about how much she missed the both of them, while Christian felt as if he gave her nothing in return, but he did it for her sake. He did it so she could be free.
“Christian!”
Christian looked up at the familiar voice and smiled at Luis, who flew into his arms. “You’re only getting bigger!” Christian laughed. Since Isobel was away and Beau had his mind full, Luis stayed with the Alfonzo’s. Christian felt terrible for neglecting his best friend’s brother and made a mental note to spend more time with him.
“I missed you!” Luis told him as Christian pulled him in closer. “I missed you too.”
“How are Beau and Isobel treating you?”
It was a question Christian already knew the answer to. Beau had been taking care of Luis for years, while Isobel, who also had a great bond with Vincenzo, couldn’t get enough of him.
“I don’t know whether Isobel hates or loves Beau, and it feels like a battlefield, and I’m just waiting for a bomb to explode, but other than that-yes, I really like it,” Luis explained. Christian, who had always been. fascinated by Luis’ descriptions, let out a laugh and ruffled his hand through his hair.
“And how’s school?” Christian asked as the two made their way to the living room. “School is nice, and I have a girlfriend.” Luis shared. “Oh, is that so?” Christian frowned. “Cute.”
Christian stopped in his steps and looked at Lita and Matteo, who were playing with Siena. Christian felt grateful to know Matteo had put everything on hold to watch Luis and Siena. “They really love her,” Luis giggled. “But so do 1.”
Seeing Matteo with Siena made Christian think about his dad. He had processed the idea of Lucio missing. out on all of this, but accepting it was another thing. “Christian, come here!” Matteo spoke.
Christian stepped forward with a smile on his face and kissed Siena’s cheek. “Don’t worry. She’s in good. hands.” Lita promised. That was the last thing on Christian’s mind. He didn’t want to say goodbye to Siena. He didn’t want to be apart from her, even if it was just for a day.
“Have you guys heard anything from Serena?” Christian asked once Luis had left the living room. Matteo and Lita looked at each other with worried looks on their faces and turned their heads towards Christian. “Yes, she called us last night, and she seemed pretty out of it.” Matteo laughed nervously. “Why?”
“Just wondering.” Christian played it off. He felt hurt as he realized Serena took the time to call anyone but him. He knew he owed Serena an apology for whatever her issue might’ve been but now was not the right
time.
Distractions made him vulnerable, and that’s why he decided to discuss the situation some other time. All he could wish for was that she would understand. “About Carmen and Luke’s party, you know my instructions about this Logan guy, right?” Matteo frowned.
Christian’s mind went to the poor boy who didn’t know what he was in for. “Don’t worry. I think Beau got
“Of contree he dors Lits eighed You’re ridicules and need to leave your daughter stone she not a baby meyersort”
“I agree, Christian epoker while he poked his finger in Siena’s cheek. T think you have to accept that the won’t remain single foreve
Matteo let out a sigh and rolled his eyes. “Let’s wait another sixteen years” He spoke Tm mire you’ll agree with me
Christian chrugged his shoulders. The one thing he didn’t want, it would be for Siena to miss our on her youth and he was willing to let her do whatever the wanted.
“Serena will probably be a bit more strict.” Lita commented. The two of you are like the complete opposite, don’t you think?”
Just as Christian was about to answer, he got interrupted by the sound of his phone and took the time to read Serena’s text. He took in Lita’s words and took a breath.
They really were different
Serena
So you’re not going to call me?
