I had really eventful weekend and this week was nothing short of eventful. On the coldest week of the year , and by that I mean on a week when we a cold front blow in with rain, wind , and its fair share of thunder storms. Angelo had done something totally unexpected. I don't know how he kept it under wraps for so long... either that or he has some serious organizational skills . On Tuesday afternoon Claudio came over to visit and he had been staying over in the guest cottage , coming in to take care of Ava and spend some time with her too when I was busy with work . I had asked him if he wanted to stay in the house he just said he liked the lake house cottage. He too has been helping Angelo out with regards to rebuilding Massa. Ava loves him. She is always on her best behavior around him and they seem to always have conversations they both understand. The good news was that; the twins were also

AngeloBeing Married to Cleo without anyone knowing except those who matter, was okay . Having everyone I love and close friends and family knowing that Cleo and I were official was a blessing.She was beautiful in her ivory White winter wedding dress. It was the coldest weekend of the year but she still looked stunning . I love Cleo with her natural hair ... I prefer her with natural hair. She can pull off any look . Last night she told me that she has to go get my gift from the jewelers. I have a thing for watches and she had ordered a limited edition watch for me as a present. I woke up early ; and by that I mean I got up at eleven in the morning. The kids were out and about with Daniel on the property they were out for the day. I can't believe I didn't pay attention when I came this side . I only loved my uncle's cabin ... Cleo had a sanctuary built .After my morning shot of espresso

CleoMy legs feel like lead and my body feels like it has been through the ringer. I'm alive ... I am alive and I am thankful. I opened my eyes and I was in a blue room that had plants in them. There were big leafy green plants and I could hear the sound of the ocean . I took another deep breath and looked around again. Hannah the lady who was helping me before all hell broke loose at the jewelers . She was looking at me calmly and smiling. Which was creepy at first until I smiled back and she spoke;" Cleo? ""Hannah ?"She took our her phone to text someone and put it back in her black cotton pants. She was wearing a white t- shirt with an L on the side of the long sleeve . She seemed happy to see me awake.She handed me a bottle of water with a straw. After I downed the whole bottle I spoke again;" Where am I ."" At a resort .

AngeloThe past couple of weeks have been hard on me and it's not because the weather has changed from cooler temperatures to warmer weather. It's the first week of spring but knowing Cleo like I do she'd say ; " Spring only starts on the twenty second of September ."Part of me always knew that she was correct because it was; wet cold , cloudy and grey on the first of September. The weather matched my mood and the way I was feeling. The twins and my baby girl are the only reason I get up in the morning. I had used all of the resources I had to track down Rosa and she said she wasn't responsible for Cleo being abducted. I have never lost my cool at an old person however; I had lost my cool at Rosa , breaking windows and furniture till she gave me an answer.Truth be told I was hurting and she didn't understand the extent of how hacked and broken I felt.

CleoThe past two weeks have been a blessing. After thinking that I had been abducted by Rosa, it turned out that my brother was behind the whole incident.Daniel has been unavailable and Salvatore has been keeping an eye on me . The beach house property was big enough and apart from the amazing ocean view I had from my room , my kids were with me but it came at a cost. I couldn't call Angelo to tell him anything and all I hoped was that he uses his brain and figures out that something just doesn't add up. Rosa was easy to track down; she always left bread crumbs . Her attack style has a trait... She wants to scare me to the point where I am afraid of being with my husband to point where I break up with him for the safety of my children. She even used Mia to make me doubt choosing Blue . She didn't know we were married until Angelo opened his big mouth and she amped up the threats . I am at peace for a change.

AngeloOn the day I was supposed to have a boys night out I had an uninvited guest who even pissed me off to the point where I almost drank . I used to be so trusting until what happened with Mia happened. She blames Rosa for what she did to Cleo and for causing the explosion. I have never seen her as my girlfriend ... I have only ever seen her as a sister and a dear friend. For her to do something so sinister ,and to the mother of my Children was just unforgivable .The weekend came and went with my state of melancholy and it got worse when I arrived at work.

CleoI love the changing of seasons ; more than that I love the fact that it's September and it's almost spring. I mean almost because spring officially starts on the twenty second of September not the first . Angelo always argued with me and he was insistent on the fact that the first was Spring day. I really miss Angelo I really do . Apart from the fact that I can't contact him yet I have to play the waiting game.When Daniel asked me if I wanted a divorce . I said ; no. I fell in love with Angelo the very first time I saw him at the food market. I knew then that if our paths were to cross again , I would let nature take its course. Three years later and three beautiful kids later nature did what it was meant to do or should I say fate and

CleoI don't like saying goodbye when I know I still have time to spend with family and friends, especially when I'm enjoying myself. On Saturday afternoon I had to say goodbye to Daniel ; Luigi , the fun loving and potty mouthed Salvatore , Mr Luca and my mother , and Hannah . When I reconnect with Blue and we talked over Breakfast , he wanted us to go home and that was his final decision.

AngeloThe most dangerous attacks are the ones you never see coming, and the ones never expected . They are brutal; unfair, selfish , and heart shattering depending on the nature of the attack. Sometimes they cause unnecessary hurt and at times any attack can leave a trail of destruction .My day started off wonderfully. I woke up next to Cleo ; and left to go meet my brother at Carlo's restaurant . It's always been a safe space to just be yourself and let go with the guys . Carl has always been a great cook and he had closed the restaurant for lunch . After lunch Luigi and I had decided to go to Massa to go sort out some paperwork.

Chapter 60CleoThere comes a point in life when everything just clicks and makes sense.Life has a way of reaching and optimal level ; no matter how many obstacles, challenges, uphill battles you have to fight , mistakes made , lessons learned , pages turned ,and new chapters began. There is always a chance to start again, unlearn what has been programmed and download new coding . An analogy could be a heart rate monitor when they are trying to resuscitate you or when your are are in between life, purgatory, death, or rebirth. If there is a flat line you know very well that you are not living. Life has always been a balancing act .In order to balance work and home life I schedule my messages , and if there is a conversation to be had that I can have with voice notes I do that in order to get more time with the kid's . I had been working from home the past couple of weeks and Angelo had be

AngeloI know how to keep serious stuff from my family. More than that I know how to use without anyone noticing or so I thought. On the Thursday before the dinner party I decided to get high and my drug of choice was my first drug . I needed something to get the edge off with everything that was happening and it wasn't after until Carl found me passed out on the floor with a bleeding nose. I needed to stay awake and I was operating on reserves. The moment I held Cleo close to me was the moment I stopped using.Cleo has always been sharp and she asked me last night if I was doing okay and I lied to her . This morning while I was knocked out cold thanks to her; she found the tunnel underneath the house where I kept my stash. I had instructed Nicolai to move everything to the club where I wouldn't be able to access it . When I was woken up by a crying Ava I called Nicolai to find out if he did what I asked him to do and if
