Chapter 109
Ellie
Within seconds there was tension in the room and the energy had gone from calm to tense. I had only ever talked to Juan over the phone and we video called each other . He had dark brown hair and light brown eyes .
He still oozed of creativity , and his voice was melodic. I couldn’t believe my life. Cleo told me that she had a brief stint with him and Michelangelo had sent him away to cover up Jake’s tragic passing . I was there when it happened and I had to cover the story .
Juan had been an absolute gentleman and he was there for Cleo . He is he dependable type and he gets things done no excuses . Juan had always come across as a perfectionist and when I asked Daniel about his track record he said that; he had worked with the Luca family for years and he and him were similar with regards to personality.
I was starting
Chapter 110MaxI have always had trouble opening up and trusting people . I have been hurt so many times and I have been let down by people who have promised love and never delivered . I love Ellie yes , but what is love without full trust . I don’t trust easily ; and once you have my complete trust I expect the same from you. When you are keeping things from me that comes across as betrayal and I normally react with vengeance.Betty abused me and treated me like crap , and I think I would rather be in a relationship with full trust that I know I am controlled with no secrets than be in a relationship with someone who can’t even tell me about a traumatic event in her life that changed her . Ellie knows about my past she was there for me when I was going through hell or some sort of doubt phase . She knows everything about me and I am starting to believe that I don’t know ,my girlfriend as well as I think I know her .
Chapter 111EllieI have never not once lost sleep because of a guy . I am really not talking Maxwell walking out on me very well . Every time my phone rings I run to it hoping he would call and he doesn’t . To be honest my work has been keeping my mind off a lot of things and that includes Maxwell . Juan doesn’t trust Paul and he had offered to stay a bit longer so that we could get some work done for the game on Saturday and the launch of the new S.F.C Jersey next week Wednesday.Paul had a meeting to go to and Juan and me ended up working through the night . Aaron was lying to me because I could sense Max’s energy around while he was talking to me yesterday . Maxwell and I are connected in more ways than one and I can feel him before I see him and its vice versa with him . I had a feeling he knew that I knew that he was with Aaron and not in bed with a woman fucking her brains out , to work off some stress . I was t
Chapter 112EllieI looked at Daniel and he looked at me seriously . As soon as the elevator opened he guided me into his office and closed the door . As soon as I sat down on the couch he sat next to me and handed me a juice box . It was pineapple juice..." Drink up . "I drank the juice and he handed me a Nutella sandwich. I took a bite out of it and washed it down with some juice before I spoke." Who packed your lunch for you ?"" I did and I am proud of myself. "" I used to wonder what the combination of your taste was when I woke you up with head. Now I think I have an answer for the question that was bugging me . "He gently placed his index finger on my lips and I stopped talking."Don't say it I really love the combination ."I held his hand
Chapter 113EllieI looked at Daniel and for the first time in a very long time I didn't know the man I was looking at. I knew him so well and to an extent inside out because I have slept with him , gone out with him , hell I even pretended to be his girlfriend at some point. Never have I ever felt so betrayed by someone I trusted and to come think of it by someone who I regarded as a brother and best friend. Why couldn't I remember him and what was the main reason for keeping information this crucial away from me .I reluctantly sat down next to him and have him a serious look . I was infuriated but calm at the same time, and also the heels I was wearing were comfy , but they were more comfortable when I sat down with them . I can't believe I got dressed up for work only to end up in Daniel's office asking for an explanation for an event in that had alter
Chapter 114MaxWhen you are a professional footballer you eat; breathe , sleep , walk , and talk soccer . There isn't a day that goes by that you don't think of playing, ways you could improve on your game , techniques and execution. The stereotype has always been that ; soccer players get payed to kick a ball, play FIFA all day and go for training. There is also the known fact that we love to have wild parties and that; we are party animalsWhat Is just said is a lie ; we are professional athletes who love to have fun on occassion and we take our jobs of kicking a ball around and scoring goals for a living very seriously.I haven't been that distracted for the past couple of hours , and ever since I've gotten back from my break and with everything that is going on I feel like I am back to being the old me again ; without the drama that comes with girlfriend
chapter115EllieI cannot believe that I am where I am right now at this point I’m supposed to be at a stadium where’s Paul viewing a sold-out game and having the time of my life watching Maxwell Play his first national match after a very long time of not playing. Instead, I’m in the hospital hooks up on all sorts of different machines and I have Daniel he's decided to go into doctor mode because of what happened on Thursday morning.I was all dressed up I was all dressed up ready to get to work and, forget that I had problems with Maxwell because what happened on Wednesday just really shook me to the Core.I’ve had fights with Maxwell before but this time I think I might have struck a chord. I don't like fighting with him and I won't beg for him to come back. He expects me to call and text him and apologize for being friends with Daniel. I am not going to do that. He knew that I had a history with Daniel when we
Chapter 116.MaxYou don’t get good at something by doing nothing. You get good at something by putting in the hard work showing up everyday and doing your best. I’m an athlete I put on 100 and 10% and what I do and I do it to the best of my ability.I’ve always known that Paul wanted to test me. When Paul walked in my room and asked me where Ellie was. I wasn’t the least bit worried. I’ve been so mad at Ellie that all I wanted to do., was making feel the same pain I felt. If I was friends with all my exes and I went to them for advice ,Went behind My girlfriend’s back had fun with all my exes had dinner breakfast or lunch have them come in and cook for me and talk to my girlfriend when my girlfriend needs advice I bet you’d feel like she was useless and question every question she had.It’s not that I don’t trust Daniel he has helped me when I needed help the most and he has given me solid
Chapter 117MThere are times when you need to listen and listen very carefully. I have a habit of listening and listening very carefully. Paulina is a troublemaker ;she's always been a trouble maker and she's always causes trouble where ever she can . I don't believe anything that comes out of her mouth especially anything that concerns me and EllieI don't remember anything my dad did with me when I was a kid and anything I remember is associated , with pain . I have the scars and stitches to prove it . The only person besides my mother who has loved me scars and all had been Ellie . I was initially going to go back to the hotel and sleep off the alcohol. My blood was drowning in alcohol and I was lucky to have Aaron arounI wasn't going to entertain Paulina's nonsense ,she was trying to start trouble where there was none. When was the female version of a form. If there was someon
Chapter 374 Ellie I locked eyes with him, placed my spoon down, I placed both the palms of my hands on either side of his jaw and kissed him. "I have always had the fear of you leaving me and us not getting back together again. We almost lost it all but we fought to get to every year and I don't want us to not be with each other and have each other's backs when we're down. I know that sometimes our Lives can get hectic and thank you for forgiving me for what I did with Matteo. We both don't want to risk losing the people we loved and it seems as if Paulina is in love with you." "That may be true but my heart belongs to you I love you and I will never stop loving you you went when I was with other people I could think about was you so we also have something that we did together in that binds us so nice and I will never forget the day that we had our binding rooms done together at the same tattoo parlor. That was one of the best days of my life because you admitted strawberry ice cr
Chapter 373 Ellie I've been in pain before both emotionally and physically but combined it's a different kind of pain. Pain has levels that transcends by either triggers or events that trigger the same sensation that you felt before. It's like seasonal trauma but on a bigger scale because you feel it physically and you also feel that emotionally and no matter how hard you try not to feel like you always end up feeling it because it's meant to be felt. I always said that if you have torrents for paying you can tolerate anything, any blow that hits you or any fall that you suffer. I didn't expect what would happen. It wasn't supposed to happen if I had just said that I wasn't pregnant and just kept quiet and walked away instead of letting my ego get the better of me. I had to help my territory. Paulina needed to know that what she was doing was wrong. I already admitted to wrongdoing by trying to stop her friendship with my fiance from blooming because I was afraid of losing him
Chapter 372 Max By the time we made it to the hospital we had to enter another section of the hospital which was in the main entrance. I was a betting man. I'd say that these people have sections of hospitals everywhere they have wings .even when I traveled abroad with Daniel he had to go see a friend of his who was involved in a shooting that he wasn't supposed to be involved in and the level of security clearance was out of this world I had never seen security clearance like that and me being a football player which of course I'd need to get back to playing football our security clearance is nothing compared to the security clearance these guys have to get you have to be identified you have to know that you will be searched and the people that are searching you have to know that you're coming so for me to be tagging along with Fabio was a miracle. As soon as we walked in we were offered something to eat and drink but I don't have the first to drink anything in all the appetite
Chapter 371 Max have you ever been connected to someone so much so that you know that when something is wrong you can feel it in your blood bones and everything including your soul and you wonder if it might be something good or might be something bad or maybe it's just your mind playing tricks on you but I believe that when you are connected with someone and you've created love with someone you can feel when something is a bit off or something is wrong and in my case I did feel that something was off when I got taken away all of the sudden when I organised a meeting between Romano and Claudio. however understand reason why it happened but what I don't understand is the way I'm feeling right now because if you deserve the right has been pulled out from under me and I don't know how to react how to respond or 38 I don't know how you feel because I cannot comprehend how I feel everything was going ok I knew that the person that I loved and my loved ones are ok but all of the sudden t
Chapter 370MaxwellI don't like being hurt preferably I would love to do the hair thing because I know that I I'm getting something out of it I'm getting cathartic experience but the only thing I like getting as a punching bag which of course I love hurting because it doesn't fight back and it's just there for me to take out my frustration but when somebody takes out their frustration when you turn extent it's called abuse if you allow it to happen on a constant basis but in this case it wasn't to be my best friend who I really appreciate right now and I am happy and Proud to call a friend.I have to say that he pulled a number on me I'm in pain and I'm recovering from The Blues that he told me to make it look like I was involved in an attack this guy's a professional at what he does and I didn't have any makeup so he made it look like it was very young and I have been coming for a little while I don't know how he does it but he's a genius and I'm thinking that Daniel bought the fact
Chapter 369 Ellie The worst thing about setting up a meeting is if the person who set up the meeting doesn't pitch for the meeting and were civil and swine you know that the meeting is very important to both parties because it has to do with me marrying someone who requested for a meeting that I so wanted and now he's not here to eat the fruits of his labor. I'm still confused as to why Maxwell decided to have cold feet and not come to the party he's not the type of guy to chicken out of something that he said that he would do he's always been dependable and he's always been directed deliberate and intentional so for him to do what he did at a very important time of my life and at a time when I needed him the most is sort of out of character because it's not the guy that I've come to know and it's not the man that I thought and mind you thought being the operative word I was going to marry. I had to focus on the positives if I was still confused at how things had turned out and if
Chapter 368Max I'd like to believe that I'm not a skeptic but that would be lying. I know for a fact that I am a skeptical person because sometimes people don't always tell the truth, sometimes they just do and they sometimes make it into something that they want you to believe. There are always three sides to a story. I will say that there's always four sides to every story, there's the part that you hear, there's the part that the other person has to tell, the part that people believe is their own opinion of the truth and then the one that balances all is the real truth. When somebody says something it is always right to ask the person that they are talking about if what you heard was true if you don't it means that you choose to believe the truth that the other person who's lying told you and then you have to either verify the truth or believe the truth or someone else's version of the truth instead of hearing it from the horse's mouth. Deep down I knew for a fact that Matteo Ma
Chapter 367 Ellie If there's one thing that I don't want and one thing I don't want to go through again is the same hurt that I felt when Maxwell left me. You can love someone and give your all in a relationship but if the trust is not there then there's something that's missing people often say they trust is like a plate once you break it you can't put it back together but I beg to differ because once you break a plate it's up to you if you sweep up the pieces burn them making your plate it's ceramic for crying out loud so why would you not want to fix what was once broken and see if this person is capable of changing because everyone is capable of change if they want to change and if they are changing for the right person because if someone refuses to change they can actually limit the growth I always say a person who doesn't want to change as like a stagnant water , if doesn't move it can harbor filth. Water like blood is a life force. It's constantly moving and it's constantly
Chapter 366Maxyou know very well when you're about to go play a match whatever you have is enough to get you through the performance, whatever you wear and what every feeling you have means. I normally work through the nerves and of the times that I've been nervous my go-to thought all my go to safe place has always been the person that I want to marry and it turned out to be the person that I am engaged to right now. I've had nerves and I've had instances where I don't feel confident about the game I'm going to play but the only way to beat that is to have safe thoughts recently it has been only my son and my fiance but now I've got more things to think about than the usual soccer game and a performance that I have to put on. This is one of those days when I am not supposed to put on a performance because if I couldn't performance they are going to pick it up and if I act all weird they are still going to pick it up so the only thing to do is to act normal around both men who are
