“But that doesn’t mean your lifestyle doesn’t pose a threat to her life,” Papa maintained sternly.
“Andrea is not in any danger with me.”He rubbed my thigh.I blushed hard and bit my lip.He didn’t even have to say it.I knew I was safe with him.
“Marco, you should make her call off the engagement to this criminal’s son,” Lillian said with hostility.
I rolled my eyes.“Your attempt to sabotage my engagement is becoming boring.”
“Look, he’s corrupted her!”she snapped.
“Quiet, Lillian.”Papa dismissed her.
Her face flushed with fury.
“If you ever hurt a single strand of her hair, I will find you and make you pay for it in ways you can’t even possibly fathom,” Papa threatened him.
“Noted, sir.”
“Does he know?”Sofia suddenly spoke up with a malicious look on her face.When she saw how confused I was, a smirk crawled up to her face.
My eyes widened when I realized what she was about to do.
“Sofia, no...”
“No, I think he should know.If he’s going to spend the rest of his life with you, he should know,” she said with an innocent look.
“Sofia!”
“Does your perfect fiancé know about how you dated an older man, got pregnant for him three times, and terminated it all three times?I think he deserves to know.”She faked a smile.
“Shut the fuck up, Sofia,” Luciano butted in, his voice cold and detached.
The table went still with silence.I couldn’t even look to my side if I wanted.I couldn’t face him.
I should have known this was going to come back to bite me in the ass.Back when we were in college, and I was being rebellious about my father’s new marriage, I got entangled with someone who was older, as he was willing to provide the love I never really had.I knew he was married, and I let him fuck me anyway.I fell pregnant three times, convinced he was going to marry me.But he manipulated me into aborting them.
Sofia was the devil herself because all those times, she convinced me she had my back until she dropped the act and revealed the secret to my father.
“Oops, I’m guessing you didn’t know.”She grinned, victorious.
“Fuck you!”I had never wanted to stab someone to death so badly.
“No, you go to hell, sissy.”
My lips trembled, my eyes blurring rapidly with tears as I turned to my father.“I blame you.I blame you for everything.”
I held back a sob, pushing my chair back with a screech.I scurried from the patio.
Luciano’s voice was the last thing I heard.“Whatever she chooses to do with her body is her business.The next time you embarrass my fiancée the way you did tonight, I will cut your tongue from your mouth and stuff it down your trashy little throat.”
