Love, Hate and Speed (Max Verstappen)

Part 12: fighting

"And Max Verstappen has done it. Max Verstappen has won the Mexican grand Prix 2021."

Max got out his car walked over to his team to celebrate the win. He walked over to Angel who gave him a quick kiss and at tight hug. "We are so proud of you." She whispered.

"Thank you mijn engel." (My angel) He replied placing his hands on her hips and his forehead on hers.

Later that day Angel walked into the boardroom. For a meeting with her team. "Hello everyone, it's been awhile since we sat down together to have a proper team meet. So, let's start." She said sitting down.

"Miss Agathangelou, we have recently had two new approaches for sponsors, for next year. As our contracts with Oracle ends in January." One of the marketing members said.

"I have already spoken to same people at Oracle. They would like to resign the contract for next year, then have a meeting to discuss the future of the sponsorship. As for the approaches', please send me the information. I will go over it and give you an answer by next weekend." Angel replied.

"I will do that ma'am."

"Okay what else is there to discuss."

Hour went by as Red Bull's management went back and forth debating and discussing verse topic.

At about 7pm Angel walked into her hotel room existed. Max was on the bed watching some movie. "Hello mijn engel. You are back late. How was you meet?" (My angel) Max asked.

"Hey champ. It went well but I'm hungry and tired." Angel responded laying down is his arms.

"Well, I did stop at MacDonalds and got you food. So, get out those shoes, and change into your PJ's." Max said kissing her head.

"Okay." Angel whispered getting up. "I know you've already showered but do you want to join me."

"Angel if I ever say no to showering with you, please, please put me is a mental hospital." Max said getting up.

"Okay." She said smiling.

The two just stood under water holding each other. "How are you feeling?" Max asked.

"About what?"

"The baby and all the work." He said.

"Ah, I feel ok. I haven't really been sick and all but I'm still worried about the company and work." Angel whispered out.

"I know, but you will find a way to do it. You always do."

"Thank you. How are you feeling with the championship and baby?" Angel asked.

"I am stressed. The presser from everyone to win is becoming too much. To be honest having a baby is a blessing. But I am worried about not being there for everything. Next year I'm on the road all the time. You can work from home you don't have to come to every race. But I need to be at every race and event."

"We will work this all out but for now no stress. I will be happy whether you win or lose the championship. If it's too much take a break for a few days. The baby we'll be fine, you will be there."

"Thank you, my love."

The following morning all the racers decided to meet for breakfast. "Good morning, everyone, sorry I'm late. I wasn't feeling well this morning." Angel said as she sat down beside Max.

Charles made eye contact with her almost asking if she was ok. Angel slightly bowed her head to him in response.

"Are you ok Angel?" Daniel asked.

"Yes, just stressed. I have a lot of work and you now life." She responded. Max placed his hand on her thigh giving it a slight squeeze. Lewis who was sitting on Angel's right let out a sigh after seeing the contact between his rival and his ex.

"If there is something we can help with please ask." Daniel said.

"I will." "You would rather die then ask for help Angel." Max said slightly laughing.

"That's not true. I as for help." She defended.

"Talking to Charles about our business isn't asking for help." Max said.

"What are you talking about." Charles asked.

"Max, we talked about this. If you are referring to breakfast when we where in the States. I didn't tell his anything." Angel said softly.

"Yaa man, Charlotte told me about it." Charles added.

Max inhaled, "I know, I just wish that you can to me first."

"I know that, and I'm sorry that I put work and your championship above my heath." Angel said standing, "I don't feel like breakfast anymore. I will see you all soon. I will be in the room doing work." Angel walked away after that.

Max sighed and placed his head on the table. "What was that about?" Daniel asked.

"Just leave it. I need to go and talk to her." Max said.

"Max, just listen to her none of use could ever understand what she's going through. So just listen and support her." Charles said.

"You right, it's just over whelming. And it's hard not being able to help her because it all CEO work that I don't understand." Max said.

"Just be there for her, that's all she needs. Now go before she adds your head to collection." Charles said laughing.
