Chapter 162
Ellie
I thought coming back home would bring me a little bit of peace and I could hear myself think. I was wrong. When I got off the plane and salmon I got to talking Daniel just happened to be at the same restaurant as we were eating it. He was supposed to be on an international trip but Salvatore had taken a flight out of the country the night before. I did notice that there wasn't himself and when he came to sit with Samuel and me I knew why.
Sam has asked me if I could give him a job. He is a sports lawyer and he's a pretty good one at that. If Paul was buying the Rossi sports division I think he would like to keep him. I didn't buy his story about Paul trying to use him to buy my company and change it to Paul Stone. I did say before that I was protected and that included being under the Luca Corp umbrella.Sam might be fun to hang out with, but he's a pretty bad liar for a lawyer he's respected and loved by h
Chapter 163Elle eI was never friends with my cousin. We've always been civil towards each other but we've never been best friends. Mainly because she didn't treat me funny when you're at school. She was part of the mean girl's clique, and I was always with the book- smart people.We were both from the same family but seriously from different worlds. I never imagined being betrayed by family, but it happened to me, and it happened in the worst way.What's Sandra always wanted she always got. It didn't matter who was on the highway or who wanted to stop her she got what she wanted at any cost. I think that's why Dexter is well for her. She has always been ruthless and heartless but now that she has two daughters she is changing day by day. Ever since I found out about her sleeping with my boyfriend before we got together in her defense, I didn't know how to feel. There is such a thing as
Chapter 164MaxToday is the day before my birthday. Last year this time I had pissed off my girlfriend to the point where she didn't want to talk to me. I had kissed another woman on her cousin's wedding day and I just want a purpose to wish you didn't wanna answer me I got a question that I thought was important.I want to have a great birthday because last year a couple of days after my birthday we lost someone close to both of us. I still miss Raphael to this day but I think that he is with us in everything we do.As predicted by Blake; the meeting went the way Paul wanted it to go. He did use my father as a weapon against me. Even if he has more qualifications and he has more experience and even if he was the best of the best he still would have said that his medical team was the best and that I should be recovering the club's medical team. I don't trust anyone on the medical team an
Chapter 165EllieI love family dinners. They give you the chance to appreciate family and the ones you love . Set a reminder that you're not alone; someone's always got your back, you will be always cared for no matter how much trouble would you get into, and someone always has your back through every circumstance. By the time Sandra left with her baby girl Daniel came downstairs and showed me a diary that I thought I had hidden from everybody's eyes except for Max. It was my baby diary that I put my thoughts in ; after the accident that almost cost me my life and a part of my memory.The last diary entry was about Daniel and what my feelings were for him and how I came to the decision to choose Maxwell over him. It was never an easy decision to make because I had known Dan since I was in my diapers. Although I had no recollection of my heart weak erection of me because he grew up with my brother and he was always
Chapter 166EllieThe one thing you can always be sure of about hospitals especially when you are hurt is that; you always end up in a room that is sterile and the only thing you can hear is the sound of your heartbeat and a heart monitor and you can hear yourself breathing. Of the times that I've landed in hospital; I've always found comfort in thinking about the ocean or listening to songs about the ocean. Songs about water are very calming in their way. I've always loved; Florence and the Machine, Ceremonials is one of my favorite albums. It is hauntingly beautiful. It's a brand that's able to bring out both your dark, and light side and make them friends with each other.The thing about quiet spaces that are sterile is that; there is nothing to do but reflect on everything that you've been through. It can be both terrifying and reflective. The terrifying part can be the unfamiliar territory that you find yourse
Chapter 167MarcWhen I receive the call from Daniel that Ellie was in the hospital, it felt like I had been punched and the stomach. First of all, I wanted to make peace with Ellie and hopefully find some common ground with her with regards to what we had been fighting about. Secondly, I didn't tell her the full extent of the nature of my friendship with Sandra.As soon as Blake drove me to the hospital, I couldn't run in even though I wanted to just sprint it to where Daniel; Abraham, and to my surprise Sandra was there when I hobbled into the waiting room. I've known Sandra for a while now and when she looked at me I knew that something was wrong. I got here Daniel and an argument with one of the doctors and he is the type to sell them argue he knows what he's doing and he's a professional but it was the first time that I've seen him lose it.When I asked Abe what was going on he
Chapter 168MaxI was in the mood to accept anything that Ellie told me. I was in a forgiving mood and have taxable married which is rough for me because I am a stubborn man with one exception the only exception has always and will be my baby love. I watched her pick up and fees him. He must have known I was around because he was asleep a couple of minutes ago. My boy takes after me and I wouldn't have it another way. I stretched my hands and Ellie kissed Axe and handed him to me. I put him on my chest and he started falling asleep." I'm jealous that it doesn't take you long to get him to calm down. "I looked at my girlfriend and I saw that she was a bit sad and frustrated."What's wrong ?""I'm a mother and I am so grateful to God and his angels for blessing me with a beautiful baby boy. "" Is it because you wanted a girl?"
Chapter 169EllieI want to find a place that I can call home and it's becoming very clear that; the only places I call home are the places I own away from the people who claim to be my family.The only person who has ever been honest about what his true intentions are about my relationship with their son is Romano. He has always been clear and direct that if I decided to get together with Daniel he would support it and that didn't mean that he didn't like Maxwell . He in fact did like Maxwell and when I had a conversation with him a couple of days ago when he came to visit me and Axel , he told me that he would support me in anyway if I wanted to break away from my grandfather .Truth be told I has already decided to do my own thing by starting my own business . The only thing that I had of Abraham's was the lake house that I asked for and that was it. I had my attorney deal with w
Chapter 170EllieIf there is one thing I know about Max and one thing that I am certain of is that; he knows how to keep a secret, and when he has a surprise he displays the highest degree of self control. Be it emotional, mental, or physically, he has a way of promising something will happen or that he would do something and not go into detail about the dynamics of how he is going to execute the task .I think that's why I loved him back then and right now because he is a man of his word and when he does something he does it with intent and conviction .To prove the point I just made ;Max didn't even take a shower with me . He just blew me a kiss when I went into the bathroom and went back to sleep . When I came out he was fast asleep, or pretending to be , I couldn't tell the difference with him.As much as I was his weakness; he was both
