-Don't worry, there is nothing special from me, just take care of Manuel and yourself.
But Anna could not help but murmur.
-You're lying, would you call Beatrice out of the blue without any special circumstances?
-I sought her out only because she was related to Cristian and I wanted her to stimulate his memory along with her, nothing more.
This statement, on the contrary, made Anna say in half a voice, "Really? That's all?
-Is this the only way to do it, or do you have a better idea? -Serena sighed.
-Nothing...
They chatted for a while about family matters, and Anna couldn't resist asking,
-It will be Christmas soon, are you sure you don't want to go back and spend it with your Manuel, be together or something?
Hearing this, Serena's heart was a little moved.
She would like to go back, there is no mother under the sun who does not miss her children, but ...... nowadays she could not even tell if there would be any change, but since Anna always asked, she could only reassure herself.
-We'll see how it goes then, if they let me, I'll make time to come back....
She had always flatly refused before, but now she was saying something different, and Anna immediately thought that maybe things were going quite well on Serena's side, so wouldn't it be good for her to take Manuel with her when Christmas Eve comes?
-Well, Manuel, your brother and I will wait for your good news," Anna said.
-Okay.
***
The Calligaris family.
-Where did he go?
After Cristian entered, all the servants in the living room were called by Angelo, and he was the only one who sat on the sofa.
As soon as Cristian walked through the door, he threw out a cold question.
Cristian took a step back, remembering the time he had spent with Serena, and thinking about what had been said on the phone about Angelo.
It sounded like a lie. Cristian half-closed his thin lips and approached the old man with a firm step.
-Grandfather.
-You still know I'm your grandfather? -Angelo scoffed.
Cristian half-closed his lips and remained silent.
-Where the hell have you been? These past few days I thought you were working late at the office, but when I asked today, I found that you were leaving work every day on time-where were you staying?
-I am an adult, even if I don't stay in the company and work overtime, I still have my life.
Can I live only at home apart from the office?
-If you live at home, don't you want to spend more time with me? -Angelo grunted.
To be honest, Cristian had no feelings for his grandfather in front of him. Although when he opened his eyes he told himself that it was his grandfather, and it infused him with some memories and he believed it.
But Cristian was not even close to him, especially when he was trying to marry Magdalene to his nephew.
Cristian just wanted to get away from him.
-Moreover, I can understand that as young people you don't want to spend more time with older people like me, but Magdalena is such a kind girl, she has been raised by the Landi family since childhood, how can you reject her?
At the mention of Magdalena, Cristian's eyes became colder and his tone was stern.
