Ellie
I have had a lot of life changing decisions to make , and one of them has been moving from the town that I have called home for the longest of times and moving down to the coast. There has been a lot going in my life and this week has been the most trying week for me. When Maxwell answered the call from his agent he didn’t expect him to tell him what he told him. I didn’t trust Jimmy because he had a reputation and that reputation was a bad one . The only reason Sam sent me the Article was to give me a heads up and alert me that; Jimmy is back and given what happened the last time with Max I was not sure that I wanted him anywhere around Maxwell.
Part of me was happy that he was fast getting back to his former life , the other part of me was a bit iffy that; he would go back to his old ways once the money started rollin

Chapter 75MaxI am programmed to screw up anything good that I have . On Sunday Morning after my quick trip to the mall , I found Blake and Ellie having breakfast, I had left my phone on the kitchen counter and I usually don’t mind Ellie looking at my phone , answering it, or looking through it . She trusts me and I need to show her that I trust her back … There should be no secrets between us and I am a man of many secrets. Before Jimmy called Ellie had asked me if I was thinking of going back to professional football?;My answer to her was that; I didn’t know what she was talking about, I was going to sign the contract that Aaron had sent me via email and I was thinking of putting pen to paper until Jimmy called me . He somehow manipulated me into believing that I would be working under my wife and I would be seen as less of a man . He somehow found out about Aaron hiring me and he made a counter offer .Truth be to

Chapter 76EllieI hate the fact that I have to drive past the Stone Corp building , on my way home. I was headed for my apartment and two motor bikes had passed me . It was already dark and I wasn’t far from home . When the robot turned red and stayed red for a little longer than it should I started feeling unsettled . Something was going to happen and I had a sinister feeling that; I was being stopped for a reason . I started taking deep breaths trying to calm myself down .I was also still trying to wrap my head around the fact that Max ; wasn't talking to me and it cut so deep that Paul a complete stranger to Max knew what was going on with him. If he had already signed the contract at Stone where would that leave Arron and Michelangelo ? Part of me also felt what he did was so selfish because he was helping out the Aaron who had a bad run with his previous company because it was c

Chapter 78EllieI hate hospitals , I think I've always hated them . My older brother died in one and it was an unfair death . I don't want to re-live that day . It happened right in front of my eye I couldn't bring my self to forget the day . My brother was playing street soccer with his friends . It was always a safe neighborhood and on that day in particular it was a public holiday and everyone was having a great day until a drunk driver drove into him . I was pretending to be a reporter when the unthinkable happened. I was reporting on the soccer game with a friend and I was pretending to be reporting live and talking to someone in an imaginary studio.The accident was so bad that they had to rush him to hospital , when he came out of the Operation room he was fine . Hell we even talked about what we wanted to be when we grew up. I didn't know what I wanted to do then but I t

Chapter 80EllieI have gone ten years without Maxwell before and it tore me apart to know that he believed some rumours a clique spread about me and Samuel who I was trying to protect back then because he was my friend, and he didn't deserve to go through hell because he had been through enough trauma already ; about coming out to his parents and family.I've always accepted him the way he was in actual fact I've accepted anyone I've ever loved the way they were . I meet you at your place of need, and at the moment I think the decision I took to take a break from Maxwell, was called for . I had valid reasons and I needed to get my facts straight before I went on the attack . I didn't want to tell him how I truly felt about his actions and then have him flip the odds in his favour and make it seem like it was my fault for him to do what he did .If Dexter was a very good lawyer... Then Maxwell is a master ma

Chapter 81MaxWhat my sister did was very sneaky and I don’t like it one bit . She called Ellie b cause she thought that it was necessary for me to take action because I was such an over thinker; fix the mess I made because I was walking around like a wounded animal that hurt itself and was refusing to get help. So in her head; she is like a vet that found me and she is trying to fix me so that I can walk or run again .I have always been a stubborn man ,and I have always , more often than not lived with regret for not acting sooner . I respect Ellie because she had always been able to call me out on my bad behavior , she’s always believed that I can be good and do good. I knew she was the right person to ask, to do the interview and get it to the right people . Part of me was also thankful that I kept AM sports because Ellie’s company was now part of the Luca conglomerate of businesses and if I needed any sort of help with regards

Chapter 82Ellie I don’t like it when my friends are attacked or bullied. I have always protected the people that I have loved and I have a way of indirectly with people who attack people who are weaker than them . I’ve always kept my circle small and I have only let people who prove themselves by word and deed into my circle and I know for a fact that; if I ever get into trouble , or need some protection, the same people I have been protecting will protect me . That’s if they know what’s going on because over the years I have learned that the tattle tale sign of someone who wants to control you and abuse you; is to isolate you from the people you love and care about you .Dexter was the biggest lesson I have ever had to learn and the scars I have are nothing compared to what he had put me through when we were in a relationship with each other . He was jealous of my friendship with Sam and when he found out about my other friends , he isol

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
