Chapter 125
Cleo
I've always been careful when it comes to selecting friends and having friendships. I learnt over time to keep my circle small and never to trust everyone except for those who have proven to be worthy of my trust
My brother trusts Ellie and so do I. That's enough for me to not doubt her decision making . She came to the house that she says she was going to need investors In with fishing trips which was odd because it was raining but at the same time she claimed that she was instructed by the client which happened to be Cameron , to bring over some food and make sure that there was enough for everybody else the only reason she went out with Cameron was because he wanted to go get more food because of unexpected guests. As soon as Ellie came back , she needed to pick my brains on something that was bothering her. I could see that she had had a rough day and she was giving off tired vibes and being th
Chapter 126AngeloIf anybody would have told me that I would be leaving the country with my wife to go on a honeymoon a while after our wedding they would think that I was crazy. First of all I was never the type of guy to settle down. I was always on the move and anytime I could have a good time I indulged and indulged wholeheartedly. I have many buses but they are balanced out by a couple of other virtues. I think the day before you leave for any trip is the most stressful day ever. You have to make sure that everything is in order with regards to your passports your boarding passes does your luggage not go over the required weight you like it was supposed to go over do you have your documents in order to have your plane tickets to have your passport , most importantly do you know what time your flight is leaving. My dad has been missing for the past couple of weeks and we are all worried we had our best man on the case and all of them came up with nothi
Chapter 127 Cleo You can plan for something from beginning to end and still Murphy's law could take effect at any time even when you think everything is going perfectly. Something's bound to go wrong so what could go wrong can go wrong and what can go right. I've said it before and I'm going to say it again: life is a balancing act you don't get to have everything stay in one place. I always used the analogy of a heart rate monitor when it's beeping it shows signs of life. When it's flat it means that there is no sign of a heartbeat therefore no life . I'd like to think that each life has a rhythm and beat that it dances to, not all songs are the same but if you find someone with the same song as you ,you can sing together and dance the same rhythm and same beat. Then there's a whole frequency issue: when you finally find someone who dances with the same rhythm and same beat that you do, you also have to tune into the same frequency. I have a theo
Chapter 128AngeloI'd like to leave that I'm really tough and that nothing else can bother me that includes not falling sick hours before I'm supposed to take off and go to my favourite place in the whole entire world which is Italy.v I've only ever been there with regards to work when I had to sort out something that had happened down here at home . There was also the time when I went to go save Cleo from my cousin and I would rather block out that time in my head than deal with it again and have flashbacks of that traumatic time . I thought I was doing well. I knew that I was doing well because the antibiotics for working I just missed that one dosage and that was yesterday because of what had happened . I still can't get over the fact how Cameron looks like my father. My father tends to be artsy and I know how artists work with regards to their temperaments so when something seems suspicious it usually is . I keep going back and fo
Chapter 129 Cleo I value my friendship with Ellie and I can now see why my brother has an affinity for her . I don't know when or how he dropped the ball but I think and feel that ; he just let the best woman he could have as a partner slip away from him . He is still using the excuse that Ellie loves Maxwell and they have an unbreakable bond . That in itself is an excuse . If Daniel had made it clear to Ellie what he truly felt then he wouldn't be in the situation that he is in right now. I get that Ellie loves Maxwell and all but at the moment he has Sienna taking care of him if Daniel plays his cards right , he might end up with Sienna . I have a lot to catch up on but I like Sienna and any woman who is a chef in the kitchen is a keeper . If Daniel doesn't marry her I'm going to tease him about it for a long time . She is definitely a keeper and apart from the fact that her boyfriend who I don't think is a boyfriend Apollo shouldn't have let
Chapter 130 Angelo If there is one thing that I appreciate and one thing I like is a woman who knows how to cook a great meal and a woman who knows their way around the bedroom. I love my wife because she ticks all the boxes and some . My baby love knows her way around the kitchen and the Bedroom and he's also a chef in the kitchen . I know it's been a while but I'm always alone watching her Cook. I love food and besides that I love sex with my wife . Daniel has a habit of letting go of the best things that could happen to him . Sienna is the full package but I now see what my wife means when she says that; Daniel's chances with Ellie were all but over because Ellie is already gone and she wants one upstanding guy who I think has a heart of gold and is often misunderstood. However I think if Daniel plays his cards Right, he might end up with Sienna. If running a restaurant has anything to go by him I think she could open a restaurant and make a killing but he
Chapter 131CleoIf somebody ever told me that my husband and brother were going to be friends at warrenpoint and be half brothers out of stood up and told them that they were lying out of their teeth because those relationships never work one is usually protective over the other. Sometimes both parties end up fighting over something they disagree about be it sports or any other view that they think is correct and the other person is wrong there's bound to be some sort of head-butting.My husband and my brother get on like a house on fire and it's no surprise that they even love the same things including wearing the same outfits and in this case they are almost the same size. I for one did not know that my brother had a collection of onesies. I knew that he likes shopping and I knew that whatever he bought he bought in threes because he likes things to be perfect in case of something happened to the one thing that he learnt he would have backup and if something
Chapter 132Max Daniel knows how to throw a party even when he's sick. His alcohol cabinet is fully stocked with the best stuff and he always if not loves to indulge. I didn't know that Maxwell was coming over until I got a text from my wife telling me that she's not letting you walk out wearing pajamas so I agreed to let Maxwell drive My car over to Daniel's house and when he arrived three of us decided to have a party. We all wanted to drown our sorrows and it turns out some wanted to drown their sorrows more than others.In our case we had to balance both the good and the bad together. Daniel had made a decision to accept Maxwell into the gang and even added him on WhatsApp . We were still worried about my father, if he has a doppelganger maybe he can meet him when we find him cuz it would be so cool to show my father that he has a twin and I'm not the only one who has a twin.We all decided that we were going to celebrate regardless and
Chapter 133Cleo The last thing I expected was to get butt dialed by my husband during a drunken binge with my brother and things getting out of hand. Angelo has an addictive personality. The last thing I need is for him to get drunk and for him to get drunk in a week when I need him to be sober. Daniel never had an addiction problem but he knows very well that his baby brother did have an addiction problem and for that reason he kept non-alcoholic beverages in his mini bar so the fact that Angelo decided that it was okay to drink good stuff with him and get drunk then butt dial me and then drunk talk to me like he's talking properly of which he wasn't talking properly and cause a racket . If it wasn't for Ellie shooting all three guys we'd be telling a different story . Maxwell had acted out of character and ended up hurting Eleanor. I thought that the defence training that I had been given by the Massa's and Luca's was rigorous but Ellie looked like she
Chapter 396AngeloI love planning things,right down to the last detail and with everything that's been going on I feel as if I didn't plan this probably because I didn't plan this probably I decided to just go an impromptu road trip with my wife and that was a great idea and all that now so I don't regret it because I forgot that the place that I was taking Cleo to was the same place that I had Seen someone that I thought I could trust a long time ago. I just remembered when I was alerted by security that someone I knew was in the premises I thought nothing of it until Cleopatra alerted me to the fact that something might be actually wrong and something was in actual fact wrong because she had a feeling that she wasn't alone in the house but she brushed it off like many other feelings she has when she is with me and I don't wa
Chapter 395 Cleo While having dinner with my guy and you're how I realized something I realized that he is a scared as I am of losing me as I was scared of losing him to someone I knew him better than I did and the fact of the matter is we knew each other and you that we wanted to be with each other so at a point where we're sitting opposite each other trying to figure out what could make a relationship break and how best to spend time with each other I'm just saying for that I have the relationship that I have with him because our relationship has been one for the books and to be honest we've been through so much in a short space of time that we just needed a breather and I'm just thankful that he decided to do what he did because he's normally a guy who normally plans and executes without fail. Dinner with Michelangelo without a doubt was amazing and it was awesome we got the chance to talk and figure out what we needed to in terms of our work situation he doesn't want me wor
Chapter 394 Angelo There are times when you question the decisions that you've made and there are days when you understand why you made the decisions that you made, some decisions that you made were made in difficult circumstances,and some of the decisions that you made in terms of desperation actually turned out to be the best decisions you've made ,but there are some decisions that you need to take your time and making and that's the decision that you always want to make when you or choosing the person you want to get married to.I for one don't think that I was going to be married to a woman like Cleopatra and the more I think about it the more I see how our stars were aligned and everything was working in our favor. If this afternoon has anything to go by I just can't wait for tonight. I was busy preparing dinner when I received a call from Carlo . The phone I was using wasn't easily trackable and the signal on the side was jammed with regards to the tracking devices that we
Chapter 393Cleo I think I've gotten good at some things while I was handling life With Angelo and the kids. hiding stuff and bookkeeping stuff secret has never been easier but it's never easy when you've got to hide things from the person that you love it's not personal things that you have to hide its work things that you have to hide and sometimes the personal stuff takes the back burner but today was a bit different because I was talking to the kids and enjoying myself with Michelangelo and not eating and not eating his favorite fish paste sandwich. I've been through a lot with Michelangelo. I just need to take stock of what has happened so far with him and how marriage has been. I'm not like you. The first couple of years of our marriage were hectic. I find myself going to sleep asking myself why I get married to such a man and why the hell I get married to a man that I don't even know but then again the universe works with you and not against you, and there also has to be a r
Chapter 392 Angelo I'm not good with planning surprises in fact I am the worst at planning surprises because Cleopatra is the one who knows how to keep things from me and she knows how to keep things from me and such a way that I don't go searching because once I start searching I will not stop but in her case I can see why she has been feeling the way she's been feeling because I've been neglecting her emotional needs as practical as I can be I need to be the same way when it comes to my emotions and throwing motion towards the people that matter to me and had been a really long week and make that a couple of days because from the time that I decided that it was okay to take a road trip I decided that it was also okay not to go home for a little while because I needed some time to myself and I needed some time with my wife alone without any disturbances without any people telling me that I can't do this I can't do that or without any deadlines I know that the company is in good han
Chapter 391 Cleo Michelangelo tends to brood a lot and when you ask the question I know that he has given it a lot of thought and it's something that's bothering him , since he is a practical man feelings equate to actions so he would ruin his actions rather than feelings that he's feeling something and he is under the impression that I only married him because I had to because he had ask me a question if I ever regret marrying him and truth be told I don't regret marrying him but he doesn't see it that way and I'm glad that we have this break so that I could tell him that I get him and that I'm trying to find a better way to communicate with him and tell him that he has nothing to worry about . I don't regret marrying my husband and wife I'm actually thankful that I married my husband because he is good for me in more ways than one I could be having a bad day and then I see his face and everything else that was going on about my bad day , would evaporate, because I would see his
Chapter 390 Angelo I here's one thing I know it's that Cleopatra has a tendency of keeping stuff from me until I really need to know what's going on and when I do find out what's going on I sometimes wonder why was she keeping it from me in the first place I have ever heard her speaking to my mother and my mother had asked her if she had told me something that I don't know and I needed to know everything there was to know about the deal that she was mediating for the fact that knew that my uncle was in Italy but she didn't tell me why he was in Italy and that was one of the things that but me was that he couldn't just leave his company to me and then just fly away is one of those people who are accurate and they will check and fact check everything. I was just about done with breakfast when I heard Cleopatra talking to my mother and she was talking to her like she's talking to me normally and kind of thankful that they have a relationship that they can communicate properly and ta
Chapter 389 Cleo Garry is the Type of person that you don't mess with me is similar to Rosa in many ways he is like the male version of Rosa once he puts his mind on something he will see it to completion and it doesn't matter how many obstacles getting his way he will make sure that he gets what he wants at the end of the day I figured that out when I was captured because he wasn't taking no for an answer he wanted to know that Michelangelo words the surfer in a way because he didn't like him the only way I found out that he was working with his ex-wife who is now his wife which is hella confusing but makes sense and away was that; she was there to oversee everything that needed to be overseen and with regards to a lot of things that happened they happened chronologically normally things that happen at the spur of the moment like what Michelangelo decided to do happen at the spur of the moment and you understand that he is driven by emotion and feeling and he's being emotional a
Chapter 388 Angelo I understand the nature of the business that I'm in and I understand the family that I have been born into being a family that is messed up that has layers upon layers of darkness and secrets that they are keeping . I also understand that I can never be too careful and made show that I took different routes to where I was headed with my wife I know that she wanted to talk to the kids but I told her that it would be two days but now it's pouring running on 3 days cause this was the second day that we were on the road ,I never do things impromptu I normally plan things out and I do things that are required based on information that is given and fact-checking and double-checking and cross-checking everything that I need to check before I make a decision and with regards to making a decision I normally take my time but something about Cleopatra it just makes you want to be as pragmatic as I can be not to say that I haven't been pragmatic but she makes me want to tak
