Chapter 43
Angelo
I never thought redemption was possible until I met my wife . The past few weeks have already been hectic , but waking up next to Cleo this morning was nothing short of amazing . We are both on good terms but , but an hour after breakfast , Daniel came in looking calm but his eyes told a different story . He seemed mad at me , but then again you can never tell with him because he had two sides to him . He’s got the keep cool and calm this is such an easy problem to maneuver or the I am hella pissed and I am not leaving until you had a piece of my mind side … and I have experienced both sides .
I was sitting with Cleo on the porch swing with Cleo just taking in the view and he just stood in front of us with Ava . When he gave Ava to Cleo instead of me, I knew something was off . I gave both my baby girl and wife a kiss on the forehead and followed Daniel back into the house all the way to the guest room . As soon a
CleoI love spending time with Ava . She like the twins she is the light of my life and there isn’t anything in the world that I wouldn’t do for her . When Daniel came downstairs with Blue , his energy wasn’t as intense and heavy as before . When I saw the bruise on my husband’s jaw , I gave Daniel a disappointed look. Ava had fallen asleep and I gave her to Angelo who took her upstairs . which meant that I was going to be left alone with Dan . He was going to get an ear full from me until he took out a bottle of pills that I thought was well hidden.I struggle to speak when something is bothering me. When Angelo walked out on me . I cried because it hurt not to be heard and understood. I needed him to acknowledge that he had hurt me and had broken what was solid and guaranteed to last. The relationship is a team effort . I married him because deep down inside; I knew I had found someone who I could love withholding. I
Chapter 45I have an unspoken fear of losing everything I already have; and the saddest Part about my fear is that , I have the always seem to put measures in place to make sure I lose everything I have relationship wise . Cleo and I have just gotten back on good terms and I want to keep it that way. As soon I put Ava down in her crib , my phone vibrated in my pocket and I went to Cleo’s office because it was the nearest . I sat behind the desk and took the call. It was Aaron informing me about the progress of the company and that ; I was been given some time off by my father until the week after my birthday .That was a month and two weeks . He also gave me the name of someone I needed to talk to that knew the business well and had years of experience. When I opened Cleo’s top drawer of her desk I took out her notebook together with a white envelope that had a lawyers address . I noted down the information and hung up . I tore the page that had the i
Chapter 46CleoAngelo knows how to keep secrets . He was able to keep the fact that he was unfaithful to me for a while from me and he had my brother lie to me too. I don't deal with threats , as practical as my husband is , I can also be clinical in making myself heard . When. I told Angelo that I wasn't going anywhere with him unless he told me ; why we couldn't take out daughter to our trip abroad ? He told me straight up that it would be unsafe and that we also hadn't had our honeymoon .He had also booked for the trip before he acted out of character. He also told me that his father suggested we leave Ava either with him or my mother because of what had happened before in the past with Rosa. Romano didn't want to lose anyone he loved anymore and I understood where he was coming from with regards to losing Angelo's mother and later his son Luigi. 
Chapter 47AngeloI love Cleo . The past couple of weeks have been heaven on earth for me and I'd like to keep it that way. Ava likes me more than her now and seeing Cleo jealous is refreshing , because she barely shows that side of herself unless she is genuinely jealous in a good way because Ava is her father's daughter.Cleo has been ignoring my father and I know we don't discuss work, but I think my dad is losing his patience with her . She's being indirectly rebellious and I also think her not getting the boarding passis my dad getting his point across.She changed into a pair of dark blue skinny jeans and grey sneakers with one of my white crew neck sweaters and her fire engen red scarf because she felt underdressed, when I questioned her change in apparel. I couldn't wait to get done with dinner and have some much needed time with Cleo in bed and just being together
Chapter 48CleoIt seemed felt like a dream and it felt too good to be true. Just when I think everything was getting back to normal I get kidnapped. I know I am kidnapped because these guys were not thorough in their execution .My neck was feeling cold when I came around which meant that my scarf must have fallen off after I was knocked out . The car I was put in sounded like a Merc and it was hard to where the hell I was with the black sack that was put over my head . My hands were tied but not my feet and I was too comfortable . I took a deep breath and adjusted my senses . The perfume that filled the air of the car smelled too familiar . It had to be him ..." You fools are clumsy I said be gentle don't hurt her in anyway and don't leave any evidence lying around."The guy that was next to me spoke." T
Chapter 49AngeloOne week laterIt's been a long week and by that I mean... I miss my wife so much it's starting to get painful . I have a tendency of appearing tough ; the evening Cleo went missing I went rouge crazy. First of all it wasn't a normal week . I have had little to no sleep , I've barely eaten a proper meal since Saturday. I've even sent Ava back to the beach house to be with my dad. Daniel has been working with everyone to try and trace Cleo or atleast find out where she could have been taken .Carl did everything and by everything I mean he had his men combining every nook and cranny of the country ,be it every single motel, hotel , Air B&B , resort , camera , bank transactions, facial recognition and any evidence at the resort for anything and we came up with nothing . It feels like I'm losing Cleo all over again and I couldn't cope the f
Chapter 50CleoMatteo Massa is the most sneakiest son of a very respectable man and woman who don’t know what spurn of the devil they bore. I really don’t say this is the first time in a long time that I can officially say that he is a piece of work .When I decided to open my eyes he asked me, how I was feeling . I didn’t respond to him the last thing that I needed was to get kidnapped when Angelo and I were making headway with regards to sorting out our issues. I am stupidly in love with him and I have a soft spot for him. I did forgive him for sleeping with his ex and when Daniel was out with Ava I asked him about his feelings for his ex and he was honest with me . He said that he wanted to see if they still had something to salvage after their messy break up and he was going to break my heart and get back together with her . I of course cried at the fact that Angelo was willing to throw away his family for a woman who has
Chapter 51AngeloThere used to be a time where I thought I was broken beyond repair. That I don't deserve anything good . When I crossed paths with Cleo again I found the me I thought I had lost before Arabella broke me , broke my heart and ruined me. Cleopatra made me feel again and the difference was that unlike Arabella who liked me for my status ; Cleo loved me for me and now that we have a family together . Never in my wildest dreams did think I could love so strong and deeply. I could have lost it all by being selfish and stupid.When Cleo was taken we were well on our way to sorting out our issues . The date I had planned was going to last us the whole weekend and we were going to do her favourite stuff only because it was all about her .I was sitting I her study looking for clues on how to find her . She had left her wedding ring next to her notebook and the jewelry she was wearing was new and I didn't fit any
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
