CleoFor the longest of times I thought that I had to be strong and go through things alone without anyone's help . I have always been independent and balanced to a certain extent . I am married but I still have a lot to learn about having a teammate who will always have your back no matter what you're going through . I'm learning the art of allowing myself to ask for help and accept assistance when needed in any way , shape, or form .
I was a mess before Salvatore's funeral. The reason was because the strong fortress I had put up was starting to crumble and it took a moment of nostalgia to start the cracking process . I had gone through losing a brother before and that changed me . Before Daniel was presumed dead , I always did things knowing that someone will always have my back ,and since my father wasn't around , I knew that I'd have someone to vet the guys who wanted to date me.
When I was told that Daniel had died something in me clic

Chapter 65AngeloI've always been lucky enough to have people who have always supported and believed in me from day one . I have never been without a job, and even if I went wayward, I always knew that I was taken care of matter how things turned out .The past couple of days and weeks have been an eye opening experience for me, and it also reminded me that I have to pay more attention to Cleo. I usually give her the attention she deserves because she is my special human and I love her with all of my heart and soul; but in recent days she hasn't been herself and that's because she had to process Salvatore's death at a rate she couldn't handle.The speech she gave at the funeral had everyone in tears . She compared Salvatore's death to the push and pull of the ocean . She was short and to the point . She didn't talk for long or go on forever basically her

Chapter 66CleoIf there's anything the past four years have taught by me is; to be calm in any situation thar might occur. There are days when I just want to take a break from my life, and then I'm reminded that; the life I'm living now is the he life I chose when I married Blue. He has a tendency to get jealous to the point where he is blinded by his own rage and he doesn't think straight. He legit wanted to tell Romano to fire Juan, and replace him with someone else he trust because he was working with me .As soon as I got off the phone I went to the office kitchen to go make myself a cup of ginger tea because I was feeling nauseous. I couldn't help but worry about the kids especially Ava who was on an excursion with Daniel . The twins had homeschooling and they had to play catch-up according to Romano because; what they learned when I I left Angelo wasn't up to his standard and the "Luca " standard of education. I knew that Ava l

Chapter 67AngeloI'm usually a calm person ... Well at some stage of my life I used to be proactive instead of reactive . Lately the older I get the more reactive I become which is strange because I normally get into my head about certain situations and then withdraw from everyone .I can't do that anymore because I have a wife who is able to gage what's wrong with me and she pulls me out of my thoughts in the most creative ways .Cleo has always been my number one supporter even when I almost ended us by doing what I did with Arabella. If it wasn't for Carl , I would be divorced by now and I wouldn't have access to my kids or know where they were . Cleo has gotten smarter with disappearing on me when she needs to sort out how she feels , except for the recent incident we never saw coming and Matteo who decided that it was okay to kidnap Cleo and hold her hostage. It's was a good thi

Chapter 68CleoIf there's one thing I hate more than anything with regards to any situation or incident that can be preventable is ; feeling helpless to the point where I feel like I have both my hands tied ,and I have to let the professionals do what they went to school for. There is no remedy for the pain that comes when you lose a child ... Or in my case two children . I don't have melt downs but I get the feelings that I felt when I lost my babies . Fact is that I had no control over the situation.The drive to the hospital reminded me that ; Angelo has unresolved issues and feelings with regards to the way he lost his son and that includes the accident he caused that resulted in Jane not being able to get pregnant again.Romano has always come across as tough and unshakeable but recent events have proven than he was human afterall . His team is competent

Chapter 69AngeloI can't remember the last time I was jabbed by a doctor that I didn't know.I think I would have knocked myself out too if I had to deal with me when I am angry. I don't know how my previous assistant's handled my temper , but Cleo seems to know how to speak to a part of me that triggers my calm vibes .Part of me was angry on Cleo's behalf. The doctor didn't want to tell my father anything about Ava until we arrived . He only told my dad that; Ava was alive and they are trying everything the can to keep her stable. When we arrived the doctor saw Cleo and then looked at me , he literally ignored Cleo and focused on me. He asked me; where was Ava's mother , and when Cleo was nice enough to excuse what he had done and calmly told him that ; she was Ava's mother. He looked at her and shook his head again. Before my father could speak I was beyond angry and it showed in the way I reacted . My dad tried to help contr

Chapter 70CleoI have a stubborn streak and it can sometimes land me in big trouble , but sometimes being stubborn and not listening to what you are told not to do can work in your favour, even though you still get hurt. You will lick your wounds after you have learnt your lesson, but if curiosity might have killed the cat , then being a as stubborn as mule got the mule what it wanted .In this case I'm not the mule ,and something about the doctor Angelo lost his composure at seemed too prejudice and malicious in a racist kind of way .The Luca private wind was designed similar to the one that the Massa's had in Johannesburg. Part of me wished that they had taken my baby girl to a normal private hospital , even one that had a Massa wing was okay with me , because there was something about the Luca's that I didn't trust. Experience has taught me that they would say one thing and then later

Chapter 71 Angelo What my father said to Cleo before she left played at the back by of mind . She needed to tell me what's she was keeping from me . I hate having secrets being kept from me . Cleoknew how to deflect when it came to her not telling me what she was supposed to tell me . Part of me felt like she did not want to tell me yet because I had a lot on my plate . I had a virtual meeting with Aaron and Juan in the home office with Cleo included and Juan asked Cleo; how she managed to keep ahead of him with regards to planning and she just smilled a him . Cleo had her mother come in with watching the kids before while we decided to cook together . She knew I was going to bring up what my father said sooner or later. I wanted to order food so that I can have her all to myself with. The kids were safe and they were watching a movie with their g

Chapter 72 CleoI don't think I can keep big secrets or stay quiet about something that's bothering me for long periods of time. Keeping secrets sometimes feels like a ticking time bomb that's about to explode, and cause devastation .I knew I was keeping something serious from Angelo and I knew it before he saved me from Matteo and Salvatore went down a path that ended up fatal for him . I wasn't talking to Daniel because he was out working and Romano knew something wasn't okay at the funeral . He managed to get me alone when Angelo was bringing the car around. He is as sharp as a whip in figuring out anything , especially when it concerns his family and either one of his son's well-being.When Romano passed the comment about me really loving his son I knew it was a heavy handed and loaded question . It was heavy handed because it was something I was avoiding and it was serious and to be confronted about it only m

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.
