Chapter 261
MaxBrent is a cool guy and I am privileged to call him a friend and a doctor . I can see why my father likes him now because he is a good judge of character and it was right about Brent. David I'm also starting to think that she was right about the woman I wanted to marry who decided to give me my engagement ring back and further break My heart by not telling me everything that I needed to know.Ellie knows everything about me and my work . I don't know anything about her job and the stuff She owns, all the companies she owns part of and what she does. All I know is that ; she chose to keep stuff from me and that makes me so mad . I've always treated people fairly and I've always been just in my judgement, but lately I think that my jealousy is taking over.I knew that Ellie was looking forward to lunch, I was looking forward to lunch too and I wanted to surprise her with a picnic but I cancelled the picnic box after I fouChapter 262MaxI flashed back to this weekend when Ellie locked me out and then when she eventually came out she told me that she was calling off our engagement. My heart is still breaking from what happened and I thought that you were going to sort everything out this afternoon but I called off lunch which brings me back to square one." I'm not saying like Dexter. I didn't push her down the stairs and do anything to hurt her. I didn't even manipulate her to the point where she didn't know who she was without me. I don't know who I am without her and the scary part is that she called off her engagement which is the first step to calling off a relationship."" You can't call off a relationship. The only thing you can do is develop the relationship and make sure that everything you do together coincides with you being a Team. I've never seen her. I just saw her this afternoon. She's willing to try and the last person she was like this
Chapter 263EllieIt was a point in your life or just before your eyes and you don't know what to do or how to react. The only response your body can give is either flight, fight freeze mode and I have a tendency of switching into freeze mode and then fight mode and then flight. I don't think anybody's reaction goes in the order that it is textbook wires but the beverage truck almost hitting me was a wake-up call that I needed to get my life back in order. The only thing that happened was my mango juice pulling all over my car and on my phone which had switched off. I needed to pack as quickly as I could and the only place I knew that the estate was near enough so that I could do everything that I needed to do; stop by at home and wait for Daniel to drive over the lake house. As soon as I arrived at the estate I entered the house and ran upstairs, into the bathroom, and threw cold water on my face. I needed to get my head in the game because Romano
chapter 264Ellie"I'm not and she's the one who won't stop obsessing over me I've tried everything I've tried telling her that she's a hard limit that I've got a son and that I don't want anything more than friendship but it doesn't register to her it doesn't click to her that I'm just not that into her the way she wants me to be into her if I'm making sense? "I stopped what I was doing and I rolled my eyes at Maxwell. I knew that would irritate him but I did it anyway because I was annoyed at the fact that he didn't see that Paulina was doing what she was doing on purpose and her plan was just to cause trouble in our family."Why didn't you tell me that she called you from our house the day before we had the health scare with regards to Axel and the day before you were due for your hearing? "" Ok fine I see where we are going with this; you had a lot going on when Axel was sick and so did I. Building a committed friendship s
Chapter 265Max If there is one thing that I love about Ellie , it is her ability to Keep calm in the face of danger. We both knew that there was an intruder in the house but she wasn't very at all and she actually told me to calm down and act normal because whoever it is must have a good reason for breaking in and cocking the gun . It turns out with someone and security who thought that I was the intruder and was breaking into my own house which was weird because I hadn't been here in a long time and after times I've been here security knew that I was here so I thought the security guy was a new person. When he walked within eye shot of the both of us, Ellie seemed unfazed. It was as if both my girlfriend and this new guy who decided to break into my house without my permission, knew each other from a long time ago because she would have told me to call for help but she didn't. When she looked at this guy's face she was half smirking and she couldn't
Chapter 266Max" Either than the fact that you are not his favourite person , he is laid back and a pleasure to be around and work with. " " Why am I not his favourite person?""You are going out with his favourite girl and you should remember that ; El had a life after you and she still does . "" I don't know how she felt when my ex was causing havoc between us."The cops let me through and I was well on my way to the hospital without any hiccups. I pulled up into the parking lot and continued to talk to Brent" Once Fabio gets to know you he will treat you like family but just take some time to warm up to other people. ""I see . I'm already in the waiting area and there seems to be no one, where is Toby? ""Oh wait, I can see you, why are you still wearing your training kit? "" I sleep in the kit for good luck , so don't start. "" Liar you dozed off didn't yo
Chapter 267EllieI don't like traveling with Axel back and forth, from the city to the coast . More specifically now because he just had a health scan and it scared the living daylights out of me. He's been my anchor throughout this whole ordeal and I'm just happy that I have her around. He has my life and I do anything and everything to make sure that he is happy, healthy, protected , safe, and well taken care of. On our way to the coast Daniel briefed me about a whole lot of things, more specifically the break-in at my home and the documents that the people who broke in were looking for at my office. The people that broke and were looking for something that I knew the location of. We had just landed and Axel was still wide awake . He wasn't going to sleep anytime soon and apart from the fact he was awake throughout the whole trip , I was lucky enough to have Danielle and Fabio around. They both have the energy and stamina to keep
Chapter 268Ellie I knew my Godfather really well. I will send you that he knew how to cover things up and make it look like it was someone else's fault and not his. He knew how to play dirty and still be clean. I have always been protected and cared for because he's the only person who's ever treated me like I was human and never judged me because of the colour of my skin or treated me differently because of the colour of my skin so has Daniel and both of them have become like family to me over the years . They have seen me through the worst and they still loved me for who I was.I don't feel like calling Max and if my god father had someone who was playing for the club and Max was a target then I knew his life was in danger.Daniel and I sat down and started eating dinner after saying grace." Daniel I know that your father uses where to get his message across and I know that he's not want to be crossed. I've never double-cr
Chapter 269 Max I don't know what it is about Toby. I can't quite put my finger on it but it feels as if I'm connected to him somehow in a brotherly kind of way. I see why Ellie and the people on the board who approved his inclusion in the team . He's very calm under pressure except for when you creep up on him he will snap ,like he did when he threw me on the floor unexpectedly. I'm still in pain from the impact but I'm fine. I already learnt my lesson from being too chummy with my teammates and Benjamin is still a lesson I am learning. Before I could bring Toby home with me; I had to check with Brent if he had been vetted and if you were safe enough to bring into my personal space because I don't want to repeat what happened . I still feel guilty about my girlfriend getting shot by my teammate, at an incident that could have been preventable. I know that; I have done a lot of bad things but I'm trying to be a bet
