Chapter 124 - CHAPTER 121 (1/2)

Ermanno entered the mansion in the morning and heard Elisio in full anger. Which was not something new.

”Why did you say yes?” Asked Elisio.

”Because I couldn't say no,” said Sabrina handing Xavier his toy to play in his playpen.

”Rose was only supposed to attend the birthday. She came in yesterday and is going to spend the day today too?” said Elisio.

”What harm can she possibly cause to Xavier. She is his mother and after talking to her yesterday I know she is not going to take him away. Xavi didn't go to her at all” said Sabrina.

Ermanno didn't know what to think about this information. But knew Rose must have felt bad that Xavi didn't go to her, or didn't she?

Sabrina walked to Elisio and circled her arms around his torso and said ”be the bigger man here, Elisio. We don't know when she will come back again or will ever come back or not. Out of anyone else in this world, you should know better how it feels to be left out by your mother's love” said Sabrina.

Elisio didn't say anything.

Sabrina kissed Elisio on his cheeks and said ”close or not. she will always be his mother and will love him no matter what. Let her stay one day and leave. And I promise I'll never interfere in anyone's life or try to fix problems or create new problems for them. I'll only listen to you and obey everything you say. I promise”

”You should only obey me. I love you and fine she can spend the day. But fiore I have an important meeting today I have to attend and I don't trust her alone with Xavi. And you my love, are too innocent for her” said Elisio.

”Don't worry dad. I'll be here” said Ermanno coming in the living room. Elisio and Sabrina looked at Ermanno and then looked behind him.

Ermanno turned around and saw Rose smiling at them.

She was wearing a cute sundress and looking very cute.

Ermanno smiled at Rose and was lost in Rose.

”For the love of hell. You are useless when she is around. I'll send Katrina to keep an eye on this girl” said Elisio.

Rose looked at Elisio and said ”Ethan is a very good doctor. He is here too. He can give you a free consultation”

”I am more fun the way I am. I like me” said Elisio and looked at Sabrina and kissed her goodbye and left. Rose looked at Ermanno and said ”you look exhausted”

”Ya. Had a long night. Just coming in” said Ermanno.

”Oh. Were you out with someone?” Asked Rose.

Ermanno smiled at Rose and said ”I am not yours anymore. I don't need to answer you about my whereabouts”

Rose looked at Ermanno and bit her lip and nodded and looked away.

Ermanno knew he hurt her but didn't mind doing so.

Rose smiled at Sabrina and walked to her and then looked at Xavier and started playing with him.

”Did you have breakfast, Ermanno?” Asked Sabrina.

”Yes, mummy. I had it at Rosalyn's. But I can use another cup of coffee though.” Said Ermanno.

Sabrina nodded and Ermanno left the room.

Rose looked at him leaving with a sad face.

'He has moved on. Ethan was right. It's time we both accept our destiny. A destiny which only brought is together for a little while and gave us only pain. I only pray for your happiness Ermanno.' thought Rose sadly to herself Ermanno came down and saw Rose trying hard to sooth the crying Xavi.

Ermanno went close to them and Xavi basically jumped at Ermanno and hugged him tightly.

Ermanno bounced him a little and told Rose to give the milk bottle.

Rose rushed and gave Ermanno the milk bottle. He sat down and gave Xavi his bottle. Xavi was in hiccups but took the bottle and stopped crying.

Rose sat close to Ermanno and looked at Xavier.

”He hates me,” said Rose.

”He is not used to you,” said Ermanno.

Rose looked at Ermanno and said ”I have decided to not come back again”

”It's for the best,” said Ermanno.

Both looked at eachother and though their eyes had a lot to say they didn't say anything through words.

”Do you love him?” Asked Ermanno.

Rose looked at Xavi and said ”I'll always love him. He is my son too”

Ermanno smiled and said ”I meant your finance”

”Oh” said Rose and then continued ”he has promised a life I look forward to live with him. I am too tired to hold on to grudges, pain, my past and.. ” and looked at Ermanno.

”And me?” Asked Ermanno.
