Chapter 118 - CHAPTER 115 (1/2)
Everyone sat in silence.
”Let's know the whole story and discuss our family matter back home,” said Zeke and looked at Thomas and said, ”would you join us back in the mansion?”
Thomas nodded and looked at Elisio.
Nevio had Thomas and Elisio talk out the matter between them to settle their dispute.
”Thomas is my son-in-law. And he refuses to come to the mansion because you told him not to come. If he doesn't come so does Julia. You better fix this” demanded Nevio.
Elisio didn't want Julia to not come to the mansion. So Elisio agreed to meet Thomas.
”Look, the reason I don't want you to send pictures and videos to Rose is that I want her to move on and start fresh. There is no way Ermanno and Rose will ever be good for each other. Do you really want their whole past to repeat itself? Will you be able to live with yourself if one of them died?” Said Elisio and paused and continued ”all I am saying is, keeping her attached to Xavier will bound her to him. She will not be able to move on. Don't you want your sister to have a peaceful and happy life?”
Thomas thought for a few minutes and then looked at Nevio.
”He is a rude asshole. But he is almost always right” said Nevio.
Thomas nodded and looked at Elisio and said ”I am sorry. I will be careful next time”
Elisio nodded and left Thomas's place with Nevio.
”You are amazing. You went there to apologize to Thomas. But he ended up apologising to you” said Nevio.
”When did I agree to apologize?” Asked Elisio smirking.
”You are amazing” laughed Nevio.
Everyone reached the mansion and Brad said he would look after the clients and some more people who were still in the building and told Ermanno to leave with his family.
Enrique, Julius, Remy and Joshua stayed back with Brad.
Most of the family gathered in the mansion and Xavier was taken by his nanny to his room.
Sabrina was too frightened to sit beside Elisio but he pulled her to sit next to him and placed his hand on her knee. Like he always did.
”You are mine. Only mine. Your place has and always will be beside me” whispered Elisio to Sabrina.
”Tell everyone what Rose has been up to,” said Elisio to Thomas.
”Rose met Dr Atkinson in the rehab centre and both started dating after Rose came out of the rehab. Now both are expecting their first child and are engaged to be married” said Thomas.
Sabrina looked at Ermanno and saw the pain he was trying to mask.
Ermanno looked at Sabrina and said ”I am an okay mummy. I want her to be happy. And I am glad she has moved on. But now I don't think she would want to come. I mean clearly, she has different priorities”
Sabrina started shedding tears looking at pain in her son's eyes.
”I think we should invite her. I mean it is what my Fiore wants. It will be a closure for all who are waiting for Rose to come back into Ermanno's life. Including Ermanno” said Elisio.
Sabrina looked at Elisio and said ”I thought she would come back to her family after she gets better”
”But she has better plans. Don't you see? She doesn't want to come back. Clearly” said Elisio and looked at Thomas and said ”Let's invite her now. Call her”
Thomas nodded and was about to call when they all heard Xavier come in the room with his nanny.
The nanny came in and said ”I am sorry mam. He doesn't want to stay in the room and screaming mama.”
Sabrina wiped her tears and said, ”it's okay, could you get his playpen from the other room.”
The maid nodded and brought the playpen with few toys and balls in it.
