Chapter 19

It's not easy to forgive

I can feel the tension in the atmosphere that you can cut it with a knife."Axel, what a coincidence!" I say with a huge smile and greet him warmly with a kiss.

"The same my dear Sienna. First we don't see each other for years and now I find you two days in a row. I had a great time with you yesterday, we should repeat it soon," he answers smiling. The intense way Lucas breathes next to me is distracting me.

"Sure! Whenever you like Axel," I turn to see Lucas. He is next to me in silence, "look, I introduce you to Lucas Sandonini, my father's new partner" Alex, upon hearing his name, looks at me strangely since I had told him about him yesterday.

"Nice to meet Lucas," he says and offers his hand to greet him. I appreciate that he doesn't ask me any questions in front of him.

"Same thing, Axel .." and Lucas goes silent after his name, trying to figure out his last name.
