Chapter 278
Max" I get that trust me I do and I've changed I'm not like I was before and given the match that we paid last week Saturday it was actually fun to actually see you again and play with you we were like brothers we haven't hung out with each other in such a way that it feels as if we are strangers in some way but I'm glad that you were called up to the national team and I also by the way like Toby. "Toby winced and waved , and Garry waved back." I can't get that we had a messed up past but the past is in the past and we need to move on a lot has happened and there are times when I wished I could pick up the phone and just talk to you because you're the only person that understands besides my agent who my girlfriend still doesn't like. "" I don't like to meet you. And I see why your girlfriend doesn't like Jimmy too . "Toby cleared his throat and spoke." I also don't like to meet her he's notChapter 279 Ellie Everything has a tendency to happen at the right time and sometimes when things don't go according to the way we thought or envisioned that it would come out or planned there is always a reason. If I had attended the match that earned Maxwell a call-up for the national team he wouldn't have been called up. I know this for a fact because he's able to control his emotions but not when it comes to me even the slightest look from a g guy he loses it . He is afraid of losing what he already has and to be honest I would never stray or be disloyal to him but I want him to do his best and I want him to achieve everything that he set out to do. The call that I received after I came out of my deep deep slumber that was forces t,.. by the bout of flu I had , came at a time that I didn't expect but it was the right time. Romano had called me and asked if Daniel was in the room with me. I tol
Chapter 280 Ellie " Think I'm going to like Tony being a new friend. He's able to knock sense into you and I would accept your friendship with Toby rather than accept your friendship or relationship with Jimmy. " "Say that you are right and that you warned me about the tactics that this guy is capable of and I still refuse to listen to you and hypothetically speaking what are the odds of him taking what's you to me. I started adding numbers and my head just now and I think that I'm not getting what I'm working for. I've got the sponsorship with A.M sports,the blog and video posts I do for them, and the labour I put in to kick a ball around and score in a net for a living . " " I'm nowhere near my office and I'm not home yet
Chapter 281MaxI've worked hard to get where I am right now and I'm just over the moon that I have been I called up to represent my country, beginwith my best friend who decided to make peace with me. The training at the camp is rigorous. I have to have my A game on because no matter how hard I try or no matter how precise and on-target I am there's someone who can do it better than me and there's someone who would kill to be in the position that I'm in. I'm lucky enough to have someone that I work with on a domestic level and on a national level too. Toby is a professional and he is a team player which is what I love about him. I just hope that he can get picked as vice-captain. Jacob didn't get a call up and we're the only two players from Stone football club to get a call
Chapter 282Max" No I don't, you need to know that I was almost voted out as captain just a couple of weeks ago and I think my personal life is going to be put into the spotlight and they might try to play games with my mind. There is a journalist that I don't like. ""That's nothing new the same old Maxwell that thinks the whole world is against them so do you want me to take the questions from the journalist you don't like because normally we would be send the list of questions and we would go through them like 30 minutes before the press conference and we'd know how to answer them so that everything looks perfect but this time we have nothing I don't have my phone you don't have my phone we all don't have our phones. ""You're pointing out the obvious and I think that you will be briefed accordingly."
Chapter 283 EllieTrying to convince Max not to do the press conference proved to be harder than expected. I knew that Jerry had a bit of calling in the family members of the team members for encouragement and he would usually do it in the morning when everybody wasn't expecting them. He did that all the time. He's a creature of habit so consistency is key to him. When you called me the other day to give me an update on Maxwell he told me about the press conference and that a man named Matteo sent him a note via the hotel staff directed to Maxwell. I did some digging of my own and it turned out that the threat that Matteo sent was real. He was notorious for sneak attacks and he usually did things when people weren't expecting them to be done. Besides the fact that he was unpredictable I didn't like the fact that I had to deal with him. I know how he operates and how twisted his mind is. He's the type of guy that would tell you one thing to your face and make
chapter 284Ellie"That's why I'm calling you because I know how my son operates through and I reached home. He does respect you and you think that you're formidable when it comes to business so I need you to just please talk to your boyfriend because as it stands right now I do not have a replacement for him. Toby is good, he follows instruction and he gets the job done but with Maxwell he does a superb job. Together they make an unstoppable team."I took a deep breath and looked at the time again. I hadn't changed into my match day gear but I was still in my jeans and long sleeve Blue sweatshirt. "I watched the game a couple of days ago when I promised myself that I will do it with our son and our son was much more excited to watch is that played good football than I was it looks as if he has found his fire again but what the hell happened in that press conference because I'm only seeing just snippets of him just losing it and throwing water bottle at a repor
Chapter 285 Max There is a part of me that always feels as if I'm hardwired to mess up everything good that I have. No matter how hard I try or no matter how good my intentions are I end up messing up the best thing that could ever happen to me. I have to say that ; I don't think I deserve my girlfriend . She has always been my number one supporter and today out of all days when she won't let me not go to the press conference I defied her and went to the press conference. In my defence everything was going well during the question-and-answer session and I answered all the questions to the best of my ability but there was one reporter who kept on poking and poking and poking and wouldn't stop. The questions that the reporter was asking were irrelevant and intrusive. When he asked about Ellie being my boss I answered the question professionally and then when he brought up my son ; I told him not to ask me anything about my son because it h
chapter 286Ellie"Ok let's get one thing straight it's not lying."" Fine, call it what you want but you omitted information you kept from me that I needed to know to make a proper decision. If I had known, don't you think that I wouldn't have taken a different decision either than to call off our engagement? "" I kept parts of the truth from you to protect you. You are already going through a lot right now and so is Axel . I'm trying to protect you."" No you're not. You are trying to protect yourself. If I didn't know better I'd say that you look it went to the press conference to get back at me after I told you not to go. I tried to talk to you and tell you that it would be a bad idea. I'm dealing with your unruly behaviour during the press conference. You are lucky that you are still playing tonight. "" Oh I bet you talked to Jerry to include me in the squad even after my little stunt. That's how you
