Cleo
As a parent you know when something is wrong with your child. What hurts the most and torturous is ;when your baby gets sick on your watch and no matter how much you try to play doctor , you can only do so much . On the morning we took Ava to the hospital I was as scared and I had never felt so alone because ,when they admitted her I wasn't kept up to date.
I was kept in the dark and told to call her real mother. Fact was that I was Ava's real mother I tried to tell them that she was my child and they took MR Rossi instead of me into the waiting room. I told the doctor in charge that I was my daughter's mother ,and if they didn't believe me. I could told him what her blood type was and that she was allergic to penicillin. He looked at me with disdain .
Doctor Killian ignored me .I have been customer profiled before at a store because of my skin colour

Chapter 21AngeloKeeping Cleo and the kids safe has always been my number one priority, and I haven't been doing well at it . I love Cleo and I hate it when she gives me the silent treatment.The trip from the Rossi's back to the Luca beach house was quick. I'm starting to love calling my dad to for help and my brother's too. Cleo was given a property that she had been a gift from my uncle for The twins and Ava. She had control over it and could do whatever she wanted with it as long as it benefitted the children in the long run . It wasn't far away from the Luca resort . Truth be told it was a couple of kilometres away and she could go there anytime she wanted to . When we arrived at the house it was already evening and it looked like we were in for another storm both outside and inside.As soon as we both put the twins and Ava to bed we both went downstairs for dinner which was pleasant

Chapter 22CleoI cherish every single moment I spend with family . The twins and Ava deserve a life of stability and a mother and father who is always present. I’ve been around more and it shows in the way the way the kids would rather spend more time with me than Angelo . They are mad at him and I can understand why?Two weeks ago when I had a conversation with Angelo and asked him; was he going to leave the twins and our baby girl alone again, he legit said no. A day later he told me that he needed to go out on an assignment and it had to do with Massa, I should have known his famous last words nowadays are ; I am not going to be gone for a long time I will be back and we can have some much needed family time.Angelo ended up going for a week and the twins were starting to notice when he isn’t aro

AngeloThere comes a point in life where everything just clicks. In this case I want to do things right and spend more time with my family. The latter is easier to achieve after you fix your mess and start on a clean slate .When Arabella came to town with my cousin who I now found out is my uncle's child ; I was angry, iffy, and anxious. All three of those feelings are a major trigger . What they trigger in me is rage, that's beyond control. It triggers rouge rage . I rarely lose my temper unless I really want to protect what matters to me the most.I get angry when I see that you are deliberately trying to ruin something good . I hate feeling iffy because I can't predict how something is going to turn out,and anxious too when I feel like I'm messing up ,everytime I try to fix a problem. As a person I'm sure of a lot of things but with everything that was goi

24CleoI have my reasons for not discussing work with Angelo. One of the many reasons is because I didn't want us to clash heads when I had to make my own decisions . He has never liked the fact that I was a self starter. He would always try and find a way to make me work under him . The room we we were in was quiet and sound proof. It was only when you went outside could you hear the noise.I needed to cool off and looking out at the ocean was what I needed to do .I took a couple of deep breaths and looked around to make sure the coast was clear and I screamed my lungs out . When I screamed out for the third time I felt an embrace and my head was on someone's shoulder and he was soothing me . I knew in my husband because who ever it was smelt of cinnamon and ginger ."Shhh it's okay I've got you . "

Chapter 25AngeloI value my time with Cleo and cherish every moment I spend either with her alone or with her and our family. Even though Matteo plunged my company, I knew I was still powerful and that meant I had to step up in terms of making sure my family was safe.A week after the night at the restaurant ; Cleo moved back up to Johannesburg. I don't know how she managed to convince my father; who was so angry with me when I wanted to leave with Cleo and our children a couple of days before Christmas . We ended up staying till new year then leaving on the third of January.Three weeks after that Cleo had to go back to Cape Town and take the kids with her leaving me alone in Johannesburg.

Chapter 26CleoLast night the strangest thing happened to me. I was out with Salvatore and Hannah because Juan Diego Francisco had invited us to a festival he was performing at before he was due to perform at the Valentine's day ball Luca Corp was organising.I didn't recognise Juan Diego until he jogged my memory about highschool when he requested to have lunch with me and my boss agreed. I knew Juan before Clara . He was my boyfriend in High school but our love wasn't meant to be . The reason was class difference. Which I didn't understand then , but I sure as hell understand now.Juan broke my heart by leaving me dateless at the final year dance...

Chapter 27AngeloI have a tendency of losing it when I don't get the answers I need . Part of me feels like my father and Salvatore are out to get me with regards to my relationship with Cleo. We are married and yet it feels as if I have no control on what the decisions she makes and the people she sees . I know something was up with Juan Diego Francisco when I saw him last year. He wanted Cleo indirectly without being direct about it .I cannot believe that my father was responsible for my wife not being around. I was going to kill Salvatore when Daniel stopped me . He would never lie to me and he told me that his sister would be back before Valentine's day. My dad was making me pay for saying ; no to him . Juan Diego was Cleo's ex boyfriend that she didn't tell me about or mention. All I know is what Daniel told me; Cleo's first love died while playing a rugby match and Juan Diego was the

Chapter 28CleoI don’t know the man I married. I seriously don’t . I thought I knew the man Angelo was . It turns out that I don’t and what is worse is that he knew who I was all along. Meeting Juan was not by accident and knowing what I know now, I still love my husband . He isn’t the same guy he was back then and I vowed for better or for worse . Juan and I talked and as far as talks go , we had a hectic talk . The first thing he told me was that ; He didn’t want to leave me and he wanted to stay and be there for me , but he got a call from his agent telling him that they had to leave immediately and go to some hotel in Italy for a residency spot. The money was good and it was way too important to pass up . As soon as they arrived they hit the ground running.

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 .

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
