Chapter 242
Max
I've had a day from hell and I don't know how In heaven's name my life became so complicated to the point that even my teammates don't want me as their leader. I still don't know if the captain of the team or not that decision hasn't been made but the vote has been taken. I can't wait for myself and Jacob to convert for himself so he was the one vying for the position I had. I don't know if this whole captaincy thing is worth fighting for. I'm not the face of the club I've never thought of myself as a one-man army.
The team is made of players and it takes players to make a team. So we are on the field workers and you know it and that in turn makes us look like we are United and we are all there to achieve one goal and that is to make sure we do what needs to be done which is score goals get points to get paid and get on with life. The stuff in between shouldn't matter and if
Chapter 343 Ellie I'm always sure when I make decisions and when I agree to do something. I've always been meticulous in my decision-making and I think that this time I might have missed the mark. I knew when Max called that; you wanted to talk about what was going on with regards to the voting process that was taking place at the office. I was a bit sad that I couldn't be there to come to his defense but I knew that he was a fighter and you would get through whatever he was going through. I didn't want to be mean to him or tell him that I wasn't interested in anything that was going on Paul was keeping me informed. I knew at some point that our personal life was going to be dragged into the spotlight and everything I've been through was going to be illuminated subtly. Part of me knew that the only defense Max had was being vulnerable and that he didn't do things half, you want the whole nine yard
Chapter 244 Ellie I looked at Billie and tried to at least not make her panic or worry about me using Max. Axel was getting a bit restless and I knew that he wanted to sleep so I picked him up and held him within seconds he was calm. " Billie I could never and I mean never do that to Maxwell. I know that there was a period when we didn't speak to each other and I avoided him as much as I could. That didn't mean that I didn't miss him because I missed him. " "Then why do I get the feeling that you want to call off the engagement? " I took a deep breath because I don't want to wake Axel up. He needed his rest and he needed to recover from what had happened I looked at her and I shook my head. It was written all over her face that she thought that I was going to end things with her brother forget and move on to someone new le
Chapter 245 Max I have always known. How to turn things and make them work in my favor. I have always been a fighter and I've always known how to fight for what's mine and fight for what was right. Ellie has always been my anchor and biggest supporter but during the meeting, I realized that I had put her in a compromising situation. She had a lot on her plate with regards to running the club and seeing that everything was in order and everyone is on board with whatever decisions needed to be made. The vote was taken again for me to either be a captain or not. It was a tiebreaker and I needed to win. When I found out that I had the majority of the road there was one word that was left and that was Ellie's vote. Since Juan Diego wasn't around Paul was in contact with Ellie. I knew very well that; she was having a very long day, it was only Paul who read the results and submitted Ellie's vote did I f
Chapter 246 Max How to get a deep breath and looked at both my father and sister and realize that they were both worried about me and they were telling the truth about what was going on. I was running a good thing but I was also not in the right frame of mind to be talking to anyone right now but my work situation. The only person I could talk to was Jimmy Who by no means is perfect but he's being the only true person and only true friend throughout this whole ordeal and I think that he was right about me and my fiance not working out in the long run because we were on two different levels but not for one second has; Eleanor made me feel like I'm less of a person because of our differences career-wise. Jimmy was my agent, yes but he was getting paid by Stone FC they had made him sign a contract to make sure that he would comply with what was required of him and I would comply with what was required of m
Chapter 247 Ellie Yesterday afternoon was the worst afternoon I've had in months. I don't know how is it possible that someone who loves you so much can turn so cold in a matter of hours. I've always been Max's biggest fan and supporter. It might not seem like it now but if I give him preferential treatment it would make it look like he's getting favors from me and I'm telling the board what to do. I've been in this situation before but it is new territory for him. Max is a player and a very good one at that. When it comes to football he can read the game very well and he knows how to get the players motivated. I've known him long enough to know how he operates on the field and more recently off the field. Technically he is sharp and on point and tactically he is good at reading his opponents and knows how to maneuver around them. I respect him as a professional football player. When it comes to his beh
Chapter 248 Ellie I rolled my eyes and took your to turn into a back road that was a shortcut to get to the Cabin "Mysore don't want to fight with you right now. If you are still angry about yesterday then I suggest that you take triple sort yourself out and come back to me and talk to me properly because you're not talking to me properly. " " How do expect me to talk to you. Our son was just in hospital yesterday and you are traveling with him. " " Let me get this straight you are making me out to be the villain when you are the one who didn't come home last night and gave me lip at the hospital. You don't get to say anything you don't get to comment on anything, you don't even get to reprimand me for anything at this point. Where were you last night? " " Oh, I decided to sleep with someone loyal to me At the moment
Chapter 249 Max My fiance and son's safety is important to me, but I know that Eleanor Is pedantic above safety. She knows that she has to keep our son safe and make sure that everyone is safe at all costs. So when she called me and we continued arguing which wasn't what I wanted to do she told me that I was overreacting and I knew I was very acting with regards to her taking Axel with her. I asked I wish you were driving to so that I knew where she was going. It turns out that she was headed to my location which was the cabin. What you told me that she has been followed hang up and called out to my dad who I thought was in the cabin but turns out that he wasn't in the cabin when I looked in the kitchen I saw a letter by the refrigerator that was written all his doctor's handwriting in the letter said that; he had gone out shopping and he should be back in an hour if there's anything I needed I should just send him a message
chapter 350 Ellie There is a reason why I've had in my privacy and don't want everybody knowing my business. My business is my business I have a right to a lot of things, the most basic and valued right is the right to privacy. I knew that Maxwell had to open up to win the case and he did. They wanted him back after they voted him out and I couldn't be happier for him. Staying neutral was the only way to ensure that they see that I don't favor Max and that he is as equal as the other team members. The rest of the board trust my decision making and even though we might have fights here and there we are a proper functioning business and it helps that I've got other businesses and other sponsorship deals for the club. I'm never in one place I'm always moving or changing offices. If I'm not that either of my residences is in Cape Town or Johannesburg then I must be on holiday or at an event out of either to
