His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies by C. Tamika

Chapter 129

Christian stood in front of the same mansion he had been trying to avoid, but if he wanted to get back with Serena, he had to make peace with everyone involved.

He felt embarrassed, weak, and terrible-but yet here he was, in front of the mansion where Gina used to live. He was going to be a good person, and he was going to do it the right way.

He knocked on the door, which got opened rather quickly. “Austin,” Christian spoke. “I want to say that it’s nice to meet you, but you probably want to kill me.”

“Yes.” Austin chuckled. “I actually don’t really know what you’re doing here.”

Austin still stepped aside to let him in, and Christian felt guilty because he could see that Austin was a person who respected him. “I had to come over to give you a proper apology.” Christian began. “What I did was wrong, unforgivable, and if I had known she was married, things wouldn’t even have gone that far

“So you didn’t know?” Austin asked, surprised. Christian felt terrible for having to break his heart all over again, but also he deserved to know the truth. “No, I didn’t know-and I’m sorry” Christian apologized.

“What’s even worse is that I came to your house and lied to your face while you’ve been nothing but nice

“It’s fine.” Austin smiled. “I don’t blame you, and what’s done has been done, so.”

“Right, anyway, I still want to apologize.”

“I should’ve believed that guy.” Austin sighed as Christian’s eyes went big. “What guy?” Christian immediately asked. He had a good idea of what guy he meant. Could it be?

“I don’t remember, someone came here a while ago and told me about what happened-he said he was your family and that it was for your own good-”

“What?” Christian chuckled. “Dario?”

“Yes!” Austin spoke. “That’s his name. He was even looking for a good lawyer and offered me a job. I don’t even know why I’m telling you all of this.”

“No, please keep talking,” Christian spoke. He couldn’t understand what Dario was trying to achieve. “No. I don’t want to speak ill of your friend. I don’t mess with your kind. Austin chuckled.

“Did he give you back a ring?”

“What ring?” Christian asked, confused. “The ring your ex-fiancée left on the road? I gave it to him so he could give it back to you?”

Christian looked at the guilty look on Austin’s face and decided to play around with his game. “Yes, he gave it back-very thoughtful of you.” He spoke as he was trying to process this new information. Dario went as far as talking to Austin and threw the ring away, but everything had backfired. Until now, every single plan had backfired.

“He’s not that good of a villain,” Christian muttered under his breath. “I should go, but thanks for accepting my apology.” He greeted Austin and took off.

He went to the person who he trusted the most, Marc. After hearing Dario had been asking questions
