Chapter 71 Max  Protecting Ellie and our unborn baby has always been my first priority . This morning after I reassured here that she is my one and only , we both got disturbed by our phones and as predicted the night before we were going to make the Sunday papers . I thought it would be in a good way and I was wrong. Ellie had always kept her private life private and she had no problems with regards to my popularity. She doesn’t get jealous when a fan wants to take a picture or a selfie . She would even be kind enough to take the picture for the person asking , and even get me to follow them .
