his head as confirmation.

“But thanks for reminding me. I’ll keep it in mind.”

“He followed all of you around for several years and was looking for multiple ways to distract all of you,” Dario spoke. “When you…betrayed Serena-it felt like everything had fallen into place.”

“What do you mean?”

“Provoking Serena, stirring issues between the Lamberti’s and Alfonzo’s.” Dario sighed. “It was all part of the plan, and my dad planned on recruiting the Alfonzo’s, so they could get to the money.”

“But everything fell apart when Serena and I got back together.” Christian realized. “He was back to square one and kidnapped Gina and Enzo instead?”

“Yes,” Dario confirmed. “He wanted to trap you, and he tried to get information out of them. So he took the two people who had reasons to hate you”

“But the only thing was that they didn’t hate me and remained loyal to me.” Christian finished. A lot had happened, but he would never doubt his brother or Gina. Enzo was still his brother, and Gina knew the danger of running her mouth too much.

“What did he want?” Christian asked. “Why is he so obsessed with the Lamberti warehouse?”

“I-I don’t know.” Dario lied, but Christian wasn’t buying it. “Dario!” Mauro called out while Dario flinched

“Money.” Dario sighed. “He told me he has money, lots of it.”

“It’s enough to buy anyone’s loyalty. He wants to build an army and remove you as the boss.”

“Not again.” Christian sighed, exhausted. It hadn’t even been a while since Fabio tried to stir issues. All he wanted was to take care of Serena and Siena in peace.

“How much money?” Christian wondered. “And how did he get that money?”

“That much I really don’t know,” Dario spoke. Christian looked at his uncle, Mauro, who backed up his words and gave Christian a nod.

Christian thought about Serena and wondered if she was able to push his grandpa as far. He knew Franco was known to be a closed book, but he never doubted Serena. She was, after all, the first person he opened. up to because she left him no choice. If everything went according to plan, Serena must’ve known what kind of money he was talking about.

“Okay,” Christian spoke. “That wasn’t that hard, now was it?”

his “What’s your plan?” Dario carefully asked. He knew the true extent of his father’s powers and didn’t want Serena to get hurt. Dario only realized just how serious it was after he requested Christian to protect uncle. Berto had a habit of coming for the things someone loved most, and Christian and Dario both loved Serena.

“I want him to reveal himself,” Christian spoke. “I want to push him so far that he has no choice but to reveal himself.”

“Are you insane?” Dario questioned. It was the same reaction as Beau. Dario knew all too well that his dad was not the one to mess with.

“Yes,” Christian stated. “I’m insane, and I want him to step out and identify himself. I can’t go against a man who won’t even show his face-

“That’s because he can’t,” Dario spoke in fear. “His face…he is not the same anymore.”

“That’s for me to decide.” Christian shrugged. “I’ll rip that mask right from his face. I don’t care-so please tell me what I have to do to make him reveal himself.”

“This is not Fabio Garcia. You don’t want to get this man out of his cave.” Dario explained. “Once he’s out, it’s over. He’s not
