What was supposed to be a soft and sweet kiss to mend the temporary strain in our relationship quickly turned into something much more. His hands moved along my back, stroking it up and down while his tongue danced around inside my mouth. I ground my tongue against his as my desire for him quickly mounted. My lower abdomen felt tight as desire welled up in between my legs in a pleasurable and greedy ache. I kissed him back with passion as his hands slid down my back to stroke my waist. Ace changed the angle of our kiss over and over until my body felt so hot. It felt like I was ready to melt in his arms as I continued moaning into our deep kisses. His manly hands stroked my waist before sliding even slower to cup my buttocks. My pussy clenched and I realized that I had already gotten so wet down there as my body reacted so strongly to his seductive kisses and caresses. “Rina…” Ace called my name softly.“Yes?” I replied seductively. I parted swollen lips as I panted a little while
“This is one of my family’s estates. It currently belongs to my father after it’s been passed down in the family,” Ace explained as if he could read my mind. “Oh…” I murmured as my eyes canned the mansion up and down. “As much as I would like to say that you’re welcomed, my father isn’t going to like seeing us,” Ace said before he chuckled like he couldn’t care less. “The Chairman is in there?” I asked without any excitement. Ace nodded his head before he offered me a smile that was supposed to heal my bleeding heart. It seemed like I wasn’t overreacting at all in the car when I considered that it may be possible that we would be meeting his father. I felt my heart sink and I hesitated to get out of the car. Ace got out and walked over to my side of the car before yanking the door open. “Come on. You’ll have to get out sooner or later so we might as well get this over and done with,” Ace said with a small laugh.He was clearly enjoying my reactions while I wasn’t enjoying anythin
“Aren’t you going to take that? It could be important…” Ace said with a careless shrug. “Can anything be more important than what we’re going to discuss?” his father snapped. “Up to you…” Ace muttered like he couldn’t care less. After shooting a glare at Ace, the Chairman sighed and stood up from his seat. With his phone in his hand, he exited the room to have a private conversation with the caller. I let out a long sigh when the door closed behind him, and I was left alone with Ace in the room. “Well, I guess the real conversation can’t start until everyone is in the room…” Ace said before leaning back leisurely on the sofa.“More people will be joining us?” I asked with widened eyes. “Actually, you’re the last of us to arrive because there were things that I had to get sorted out first,” Ace replied.I narrowed my eyes at him as my mind raced to understand what was going on. Someone else was supposed to join us. I was biting down on my lip without realizing it as I tried to fig
“Not really…” I replied to her earlier question while feeling quite confused at what she was trying to get at this time around. “Ace, you didn’t tell her? Even after all that we discussed, you still didn’t tell her?” Elizabeth turned to ask Ace with clear surprise in her face. Ace looked slightly uncomfortable before his face returned to its calm and almost emotionless state again. Although his reaction was very brief, I didn’t miss it. “She’ll find out soon anyways…” he muttered. “I have no idea why he’s like this. Well, I guess he’s right that you will find out soon,” Elizabeth said as she turned to me and then showed me a bright smile that left me even more confused than ever before. The way the two of them were acting stimulated my curiosity. Suddenly, it felt like I could no longer wait to find out what exactly these two had been hiding from me. What was it that Ace was supposed to tell me? “Umm…what did you two discuss?” I asked with my eyes on Elizabeth. “Oh, let’s just
It was clear that Ace’s father wanted nothing more than a solution to the problem that was right in front of us. Ace’s announcement had caused massive panic and the news did not take long to reach the eyes and ears of the public and that included the board of directors and the shareholders. “You have to admit that it’s not my fault that the investors like to overreact at every little thing that I did or didn’t do,” Ace retorted like it wasn’t at all his problem. “Every time some juicy news about Ace appears, the share price tanks instantly. Like, you know, when they highlight his various affairs,” Elizabeth whispered to me before laughing.Despite the stressful atmosphere, Elizabeth seemed to be enjoying the show immensely to the point where I had no idea what truly ran through her head. I shook my head in disbelief when I recalled Ace’s words on how I should try to get along with Elizabeth and how I should learn from her. “How dare you say such irresponsible things!” the chairman
“I think Ace’s idea is fantastic. You should hear him out. After all, you did come out all the way here…” Elizabeth said before she smiled at the chairman. “I don’t understand you two at all. He broke off his engagement with you and you’re still willing to cover for him?” the chairman asked Elizabeth with a suspicious look on his face. “I’m not doing this for him. I’m doing this for me…” she replied without backing down. The chairman was clearly surprised at Elizabeth’s response, and I had to admit that her words only made me more curious about what the two of them had planned. Everyone’s eyes were on Ace as we waited for him to explain everything. Ace was too calm and relaxed for my liking and he didn’t seem to be in a rush to ease the tension in the room. “This isn’t truly my own original idea. In fact, I’ve pretty much recycled your idea but I’m going about it in a slightly different way,” Ace began explaining. “My idea?” the chairman asked with narrowed eyes. “Exactly. I kno
“I can’t make a decision on this right now. I’ll need to think this through, and I’ll also need to meet with Elizabeth’s father to discuss this further,” the chairman finally said. “That’s good enough for now, I guess. I didn’t expect that you could decide right away. However, I just want to remind you that this will have to go through in some shape or form according to the deal that we’ve made,” Ace said as he stared directly at his father. “What deal?” the chairman asked. He can’t mean…“Don’t act like you forgot. The deal where I’m supposed to grow the company. If I remember correctly, and I’m quite sure that I do, when we made that deal you agreed that I could use whatever method that I wanted. You would allow me to do things my way to grow our company. I remember that the set timeline is three years. Good news is, with this, it won’t take anywhere close to three years,” Ace said with certainty. The chairman eye’s widened as if he finally fully understood what was really going
Ace must have gotten what he wanted because he pulled my hand into his and gave it a squeeze. That was the signal that we should both leave. Although I had a pretty good understanding of what had just happened, I still felt lost, and it was hard for me to digest everything. Figuring out how I felt about what I had just witnessed and heard was the biggest challenge for me and I doubted that I could get my feelings in order right away. “We’re leaving,” Ace announced as he stood up from his seat while pulling me up to my feet along with him. As far as Ace was concerned the discussion was over. Even though his father had not outright agreed to Ace’s proposal, it was clear that actions would be put in place to implement Ace’s plan. Elizabeth also stood up as if she wanted to leave along with us. “I should be leaving too. I think we’ve pretty much updated you on everything today. Thank you for listening to our selfish request,” Elizabeth said to the chairman. “I will talk to your father
