Chapter 265
MaxIf 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'tChapter 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
Chapter 270 Max I took a deep breath and looked at an inquisitive friend who needed answers and above all honesty . " Blake had an epileptic fit and died on the same day my mother died so not too long ago I was burying both my brother and my mother at the same time. I had to also come to terms what's the fact that; Paul's brother was also going to marry my sister. " " Man, you've been through a lot." " I sort of need a break from all the bad stuff that's been happening to me and I'm trying to be a better man for my son and my girlfriend who I am hoping to make my fiance again. Do you want to come in for a drink?" " Yes please. " We got out of the car and into the house. When Toby entered he was smiling from ear-to-ear because he couldn't believe how beautiful the house was. Yes it's on one of the kitchen bar stools and I went into the fridge and got her a can of non-alcoholic beer. We don't keep alcohol in the house because I was trying to stay clean
Chapter 271Ellie There are days when I feel like going to work and there are days when I don't want to go to work because I don't want to leave my Baby boy alone. I miss them when I go to work and it's reaching the milestone where his senses are heightened . He already knows his father's voice and I feel bad for not calling Max last night because I was so tired . I normally send him a picture of Axl sleeping one of them wide awake or sometimes I send a video of actual saying something that doesn't make sense but it makes sense to both of us anyway because his baby talking and we are still trying to learn baby talk and understand what kids are saying but it's ok we will get there. I got up in the middle of the night to go check on Axel and he was peacefully sleeping. I'd ask Daniel to move his crib into the main bedroom because I didn't want to be apart from him I knew it was a target on my back and I don't want anything to happen to my b
Chapter 272Ellie I tried to keep my eyes open but they ended up closing again. I wasn't in the state of mind to go anywhere physically. Mentally I was still sharp mentally, but my body was betraying me physically because deep down I knew that something was wrong and I couldn't move or do anything until I had recovered. I pulled myself up and tried to get out of bed again. I ended up with my feet hanging on the side of the bed and me looking at Axel smiling . It was enough to make me smile and get the strength to get up but Daniel walked towards me and sat me down with him. I placed my head on his shoulder and he kissed my forehead. "I spoke to my dad yesterday and he had to take a detour with Sienna's father. He didn't know better and Matteo is trying to do something sinister. Angelo will run things at the office and I will run things to the side on the ground and just work from home because you are in no condition to go out ."
Chapter 273 Max I've never traveled or shared a room with Toby before; and ever since rebranded and Cape Town have been inseparable. We've done everything together and that included I'm sitting together in the technical meeting and taking notes together. We were put together for a reason and I can see why we were paired together now. At first I thought that it didn't make sense that I was being paid up with someone who did not have a soccer background. I knew that I had to find a way to work with my new partner but unlike many times before working with someone who has proven to be difficult but working with somebody who understands her and gets here in many ways is a blessing. I tried to take the window seat on our way to Cape Town but Toby beat me to it. He also beat me to the part of our hotel room that had a view. I couldn't wait to see my son and my fiance. It didn't matter what we did. I knew that my day was going to get better and I could fee
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. That was one of the best days of my life because you admitted strawberry ice cr
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
