Chapter 102

“Serena, look—our baby looks so perfect, she looks like you!” Christian ran into the room with a big smile on his face and raised Siena in the air.

Tonight was the dinner with the Orlando’s and I was still a bit anxious about whatever Christian had planned. Would he really give Dario a pass?

“Latest collection?” I asked him in a mocking tone, the same way Daniela had asked me.

“Yes? How did you know?” Christian asked surprised. “I don’t,” I sighed annoyed. “It’s what Daniela asked me the other time, ugh.” I gagged at the end.

Christian gave me a pitiful look. “You don’t have to hang out with them. I wouldn’t do it so I don’t know why you’re pushing yourself-don’t listen to my mom

“Your mom is right.” I corrected him. “And the thing is, I don’t trust your words anymore, I know you already knew about Dario,” I informed him. Christian frowned his eyebrows. “You do?”

“Yes, Daniela told me. She’s at least good for something.” I spoke and waited for him to say something- but the expression on his face had changed and was back to normal. “Do you want to go to the Orlando’s, Siena?” Christian asked Siena who had started gagging.

“You see.

it isn’t just me?” Christian laughed. He walked over so he could pull me in a hug and squeezed Siena between us. “All I need is the two of you, no negativity-just the two of you.” He spoke, but somehow it sounded as if he was only trying to convince himself.

“So you and Gina seemed to be getting along yesterday.” I smiled at him. “I’m proud of you, it makes me happy.”

Gina had been nothing but good to us, and all she ever got in return were Christian’s glares.

“About Gina, don’t get too close to her.” He suddenly spoke. “What?” I chuckled.

“Don’t get too close to her.” He repeated himself. “She’s a personal assistant, not our friend or part of the family-don’t get too close to her.”

“Christian, I’m not starting this with you.” I rolled my eyes and took a step back. “Give me one good reason why we shouldn’t hang out with her?”

Christian looked at me with a startled look on his face. “Well?” I demanded, but he still did not say a word. “Exactly, because there’s nothing else to say.” I sighed.
