*ARTURO*

Tomorrow we have interviews, both Gustavo and I will sit in them, but Milena will be the one to make the final decision. This is the first time the hospital has ever put anything out to the media. We must get the right team behind us, to promote the good and to help us if things go badly.

Milena is nervous, this is outside her comfort zone, but she understands the importance of having a good press.

“Milena, do you want to walk with me in the morning? Can we talk about the interviews? Or just walk together, and I can keep your mind off it.”I was hoping she would give me an in.

Something had not been the same. It was as if she had pulled back.

Yes,we had agreed to stop having sex but we didn’t agree to not to be friends anymore.

I was not sure if it was because we were working at the same place, and that had made her uncomfortable to be work with someone you had sex with, or if something else was holding her back. I want the Milena I first met back, the one that gave me a lot o

    *ARTURO*The interviews started and when a woman arrived looking like she was here to sell herself and not her product, I felt Milena stiffen. I knew there was a story behind that reaction. This woman looked at Milena with hatred in her eyes, but when she looked at me, I felt disgusted, like she had just rubbed herself all over me, and was looking at me as if I was her next meal. It was a total turn-off.An ex-friend, or the one that stole her boyfriend? Definitely something, I have seen that kind of reaction many times from my sisters, to smell trouble when I see it.But when a guy walked in, both looked a little shocked but looked more angry than anything once he recovered.His presentation was okay, but that was about all I could say, nothing that grabbed my attention. Most of them were mediocre, until the last one, and we all sat up and took notice. He understood what we wanted to project perfectly, and it did not surprise me when Milena told him he had the job, without consulting

    *MILENA*After the meeting, I headed to see Mr Green. I gowned up and went in taking a tray of coffee with snacks with me. We restricted who could visit until after the operation, and if the family wished to sit with him, they needed to gown up and no kissing. We cannot risk any infection so close to the operation.“Good morning Milena, all set for Monday?'“Good morning, and yes. I have the media starting to promote it on Sunday, and wanted to warn you of this.”“Well, that will be interesting. I will have to watch the TV and see if I have a good face on.”He chuckled.“I did not think you would want a picture of you. I mean how you are now.”“I think they should come here and take a picture of me, so they can see how I am before the operation and what I am going through, don't you think?”“I will speak to Mr Philips, he is our voice to the people, and see if he would like to do that.”Mr Green was serious. I did not want to get him all worked up, and in the end, I agreed to mention i

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 39 Sad for Lena

    *ARTURO*I watched the man enter the restaurant, and he did not seem too pleased to see me. Well, too bad buddy, if Milena needed my support from you, she was going to get it. I had already been told by Milena that she might get emotional, and she needed me to help her stay strong, and possibly help her out of the restaurant if she cried.What I learned whilst sitting there was more than I had expected. This low life before me could do such a thing to this beautiful selfless woman. In the time I got to know Lena and that was not that long, she had already shown she was not a gold digger and went out of her way to help others in little ways.For example, she brought a takeaway dinner at a restaurant we stopped at, and she gave it to a homeless man who was sitting, leaning against a shop wall. He was playing an old guitar for tips, his face lit up like a Christmas tree, when he opened the lid and saw what she had brought him.But this low life had been the one to dim her eyes, and break

  • Billionaire Ex, Divorce It!   Chapter 40 The game

    *MILENA*It did not shock me that Rissa would be waiting outside of Dino's, where Dante was meeting me.Rissa would never be too far away from him, it was like a magnet, she seemed to be attracted to where he was nearly all the time. I am not sure if it was all on Rissa’s side, and she had Dante hoodwinked, or if they were in it together.He seemed to be shocked at the video, and Rissa was her usual selfish woman. Arturo saved me from any further confrontation, which I know would have got a lot nastier if Rissa could get away with it. I was surprised there was not a photographer hiding somewhere, or maybe there was, and I could not see them, but they had little to photograph.The evening was okay. My mind was distracted for most of it, as Arturo tried to take my mind away from the meeting with those two, and some of my sad past was revealed, yet he did not run, he stayed and was strong, and very supportive, though no matter how hard he tried, he could not completely remove that sadnes

    *ARTURO*The day was exhausting, and by the time I had taken a shower and climbed into bed, it was midnight, my head hit the pillow and sleep came quickly, all thoughts of what Milena was going through left my mind. Either I was drained, or the ability to turn things off took over. I knew in my early days as a doctor, I would have things go over and over in my mind, making sleep impossible to claim, and I would toss and turn. I have since learned to block those sorts of thoughts out of my mind, and that might be what happened now.It was nearly ten o'clock when I woke, the sun blazing through the window. Last night I failed to close them, which was unusual for me, and I was shocked to see how late it was in the day. Throwing the blankets off of me, I raced around getting dressed. I was supposed to be at my parent's home by eleven and to grab some drinks. This was going to be a close run if I was to make it across town in half an hour at that time of day and I had to think of the best

    *MILENA*The next morning, I woke up with yesterday's phone calls on my mind, so I emailed my lawyer and let him deal with it. I cannot fathom how that person got my phone number, and I am a little worried about who could be doing this. Was it one of my sister's friends trying to get into my head? I would not put it past my sister to do something like that, try and make it all Dante’s fault and that she is an innocent person in this, which I know she isn't.Maybe she did not like me knowing she had married my husband, and thought about making it look like he had done this a lot of times before, and that she was another victim, planting the seeds of doubt.I had a nice long swim before making a quick breakfast, got the television on the sports channel and had it playing in the background, and put some of the finger-food in the oven on low heat to warm up, for when our guests arrived. I was looking forward to spending time with Dad. It had been a while since I had a chance to have a pro

    *ARTURO*My day started at the pool doing long laps, as I thought about yesterday and how excited Dad was to meet another enthusiastic sports fan. I had no idea how today was going to go. I hoped that Milena was a true sports fan, or my Dad was going to be very sad. He had been building up his expectations all week since I suggested sports day to him.Dad arrived at my place fifteen minutes before the game, hoping the place we were going to not be far. I had not told him exactly where Lena lived, just in our building. Well, I don't think I did.He was dressed in his team's shirt and jeans, the same as me, and was carrying the two cases of beer I had left at his place. I quickly took the beer.“Hi Son. Are you ready to go? I am missing the pre-game announcements.”I moved out of the condo, closed the door behind me, and opened Lena’s door. The smell of food wafted out to greet me, and my mouth started to water at the tasty fragrance. Dad's

    *MILENA*After I cleaned up, I was tired, but a good tired. Today was the best day we have had in ages. Dad was in top form. Spouting stuff and Arturo’s Dad could join in on all of it. What Dad or I did not, Hank knew. It was great teamwork, and the laughs were great. I felt comfortable, not at all embarrassed as I screamed at the screen, as those in the room were doing the same thing. I don't think we have ever had a day like this one. I look forward to next week when we can do it all over again.They kept me busy with food and drinks, and I didn't think of tomorrow until the promotion started. Then it was a good feeling when Hank complimented me on my achievements, making my Dad puff up in pride. The compliments meant a lot, coming from a fellow doctor, who would have understood what was involved to have reached this far.The morning came, and it was showing signs of being a good day.
