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

Chapter 175

I made my way upstairs and walked past the security like I owned the place, which was practically the case. It was probably due to them being scared of Beau, but at least it worked because no one dared to stop me.

The only person who would hold me back was the same nurse from the last time who stood in front of the door, but I could also deal with her. I glared at the nurse from a distance and noticed how she tried her hardest to avoid my gaze.

“Aren’t you going to let me in?” I asked as I reached the door. The nurse almost trembled in fear and immediately stepped aside. I hated using this power over them to treat them like crap, and I didn’t want to scare anyone, but it was the only way.

I walked through the door and stared at Gina, who was getting her wound cleaned by a nurse. She had a smile on her face and seemed way too comfortable. All I wanted was to smack it right off.

I cleared my throat, making them both turn around, and gave them a forced smile. “I can take it from here,” I told the nurse and grabbed the cloth from her hands. “But Christian said-

“Christian’s not here right now, so I’m the boss,” I told her as I pushed her towards the door. “Thank you, bye!”

“Miss-”

Before the woman could say another word, I closed the door in her face and brushed off my hands. “So, that’s been taken care of-right?” I rolled my eyes at Gina.

Serena, I don’t want any trouble-please!” Gina pleaded while I stepped closer. “What are you on about? I’m just going to clean you up, and that’s it.” I chuckled while I played with the cloth in my hands. “Come

“O-okay then,” Gina stuttered and scooted closer. I damped the cloth into the warm water and brought it to the wound on her cheek. She seemed so fragile, and it was not that difficult to see that she must’ve gone through a lot, but that was no excuse for her being here.

“I’m so sorry for everything that has happened to you, and I want you to know that none of it is your fault.” I smiled as I brushed my hand through her hair. “You had the opportunity to give the masked man information about Christian, and you choose not to. That’s amazing.”

“Thanks.” Gina smiled. “I would do anything for Christian. You know that.”

“Yes.” I glared at her. “I do know that, and that’s the issue.”

“Stay away from him. You’ve done enough.” I told her in a desperate attempt to get the message through her head. Gina fumbled her hands and started shaking.

“If you’re so desperate for a man, go and steal someone else’s, but not mine,” I spoke word for word. I was always so loud about not wanting to fight anyone over a man, but things had changed. All of my issues with Christian started with Gina, so it would also end here. It was time for her to leave.
