Max placed my phone on my desk , and looked at me with sad eyes . I could be so mad at him right now, but I can't be after what I just heard . Maxwell never confused me . We've known each other since we were kids, and every time he pulled that look he knew he was busted . He turned the swivel chair around and placed his palms on his face. I was wearing his blue superman shirt that went up to my knees and I was still feeling the effects of the stuff we got up to all night last night. I walked to where he was and knelt in front of him .
"MJ?"
"Ell?"
I slowly peeled his palms off his face and he looked at me with tears in his eyes . I placed my palms on his face and wiped his tears he sat up and I sat on his lap and gave him a hug and he held me close.
" Hey it's okay you don't have to tell me everything at once my baby love."
" I do because you're my best friend and teammate . "
I pulled back and

MaxThere are moments in life when you regret the mistakes you make, and when you realize how much of a fool you have been . I don't know why I keep on hurting the people I love . I always find a way to mess up the one good thing I have , except for a relationship that was mended by a woman whose heart I think I just broke . After slamming the door I couldn't bring myself to leave and just run . I heard Ellie shut the bathroom door and I stood up to go to her guest room to go get cleaned up .I knew I had just messed up and I couldn't leave her thinking I broke her heart. Now that I think about it I didn't even give her a chance to plead her case . Ellie has always been my biggest can even when I thought I was messed up; she showed me that I can trust with no holds bard and be accepted for who and what I am. It's not that I am struggling to trust her, I am afraid to let go because I fear losing what I already have . Once I was done I w

Chapter 32EllieWhen Max walked out if the bedroom I was sure I was done with him... Not really I loved him, and to be honest I was a bit fired up . I think we both needed time to cool off and then talk . After getting cleaned up and changing into a red top and black jeans with back sneakers to match, I went into the study to go make a phone call . I had told Meagan what had happened and that I really don't know how to help his son when he will not open up. She told me that she found him crying his eyes out the day before yesterday in the laundry room because he thought he deserved everything bad that was happening to him. When I mentioned Maria ; she sighed and told me that she has been guilt tripping Maxwell for a decision they both took together . She had mentioned that Max and Maria were both pregnant but they were career focused and they decided to terminate the pregnancy. Maria was never really over max so they continued to see

MaxThree weeks . It's been exactly three weeks, and I haven't heard anything from Ellie . She won't take anyone's calls not even Daniel's .On the day she said she needed a break we went through with the housewarming party and everyone except for Salvatore knew what was going on . He had snuck up on Maria and knocked her out by injecting something into her neck. As soon as she was knocked out he called the cops.The party went well and Ellie knew how to hide the fact that we were in trouble , she wasn't with me half the time and during lunch she did sit next to me . My brother wanted to tell me something but ; he held back , I later received a text from him asking what was going on? I told him; I messed up so badly I don't think there is a way to fix the mess I made. Ellie wasn't even talking to my mother that's how bad things were .It's been raining all week and it hasn't stopped . The weather

EllieTaking a break is necessary, where feelings and heart matters are concerned . The three weeks I took away from everyone worked for me ... Make it two weeks because Blake found me. I never left home I just went out of sight . I needed to change my security system in my apartment and it turned out Blake's side hustle was the best.He is was a tech head with a romantic streak because he confessed to me about what he did on the day Maria held me hostage. He told me that he didn't anticipate what happened to happen and that; Max was in bad shape and he was sad. When I told him about what I was told and what I found out with regards to Max and his trust issues, he told me Maxwell trusts me with his life. Blake was always fair and I loved him more as my "adopted" little brother because he always told the truth when it mattered the most .I was going to take a longer hiatus until Blake told me he knew that I

Chapter 35MaxA wise person once told me that life is a balancing act. You win some and you lose some . If at any point you find stability then you have achieved balance .There is truth to what he said but ; having been an athlete what you always try and achieve when performing is an optimal level where everything just goes your way all the time... but life is like a heart beat rate monitor monitoring beats . There cannot be ups without downs ,and if the line is flat there is something wrong. This morning I woke up to the best news I could receive ; only to be told by Ellie that we needed to get to the hospital as soon as possible . Something had happened to my mother , brother and sister. Deep down I inside I had a sinister feeling that my father was involved . Blake had made sure that security at our my mother's house was taken care of. The hospital called Ellie because she was the on my mother put down as next of kin. Doctor Killian was off for the mo

Chapter 36EllieI didn't see what happened coming. It's been a hectic couple of weeks, and by that I mean Max has been through a lot. On the day I was called by Doctor Raphael to come through to the hospital my heart was in my throat. I was scared because I knew he didn't have anything good to tell me judging by the conversation we had before over the phone. When we arrived I was asked to go through to Doctor Raphael Blackwell's office . Max was told to wait outside and he didn't mind.The argument I was having with Raphael was sparked by the birthmark on his wrist . Maxwell had the same birthmark and when I asked him about it he came clean and told me about Meagan. Poor Max went through hell when his step father started beating him up. He had no right to and Max deserved to know who his real father was instead of being treated like crap.Meagan seemed to be happy with chuck and he hadn'

MaxThe past couple of weeks have not only been hectic on me , but on my family too. I should be consider myself to be a lucky man because I have a girlfriend who is pregnant with multiples, and a brother and sister who love me to bits ,but I have been so cold and distant to everyone around me and even Ell tried to get me to smile by cooking my favorite meal but I didn't even show her any appreciation . My mother isn't going to get her memory back and well my father ...my real father is the only person she remembers and wants to be with . No one else . My siblings were at Dan's tonight giving me much needed time with Ellie. I had just finished a couple of things for work and I was ready to talk to her. I couldn't find her anywhere in the house and I knew I had more than messed up when her car wasn't in the garage. I called my brother to track her down and he gave me an earful on how I've been a Grinch he corrected himself during the c

Chapter 38EllieI woke up Saturday morning to find my boyfriend sleeping on my couch in the main bedroom . For a man who was deeply troubled he was sleeping soundly which was a relief because he hadn't been sleeping well for the past couple of weeks. I was surprised to find him in my room ,and I had a feeling he asked his brother to track me down. As soon as I made my bed , made sure Max was warm , cleaned up and made him coffee in a travel mug , I received a text from Cleopatra asking me to come through to her house. I trust Cleo she has been through the same flames I have faced and she is very easy going .When I pulled up to her house she let me in and I was welcomed by her two year old who was running towards me calling my name... She had told me that Angelo went shopping with Pia because Pio was just not budging when he asked him if he wanted to go to the shops . He simply stuck out his tongue and ran to Cleo

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.

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
