Ace took a step forward, put his finger under her chin and gently raised up her head. "How many times should I tell you to look at the person you are talking to and talk? And why are you biting your lip?" He scolded her softly like one does to a child and released the lip from her teeth with the pad of his thumb.
"There is nothing wrong you have done that you should feel guilty about. I should have checked the dress before I gave it to you to wear." His hands reached down to her cheeks cupping them, bent his head and kissed her forehead.

Ace re-runs his hands into Scarlet's tendrils admiring the velvety caress still holding her in his arms."Remember this always, I do not want you to go out anywhere with your hair down like this.

Chapter 29"Excellent observation." Ace complimented Scarlet."It is not any mastery to find a man who is drunk." Scarlet spoke between her clenched teeth trying her best to control her anger and not to shout at him to wake-up Angel."How could you dare doing all this especially when you have a toddler at home? What is the impression you create on her with actions like this?" She pointed to his wobbly legs."Thankfully Angel is asleep. Otherwise I wouldn't know how I could hide you from her." Scarlet spoke in abhorrence."Uh uh sweetheart, I know as long as you are with me there is nothing I need to fear about my daughter." Ace spoke, holding her chin. Even in his drunkenness he w

The ring went on for more than a minute but it was left unattended. Scrolling on the T.V channels to know more about her perfidy fiance she switched on to the news. The pictures of Brianna and Ace locked all the TV screens like a never ending untimely rain."Shortly is the interview of the striking hot billionaire Ace Taylor.

The news reporter spoke and the next was Ace's picture flashing on the TV screen."Brianna repents for her past actions. She wants to amend her mistake."What is he saying? Is he gone nuts? Does he still possess feelings for that selfish scar of motherhood? Scarlet's temper was at the maximum point hearing his representation for Brianna on TV.

Chapter 108 Ace points to the couch sitting opposite their bed. "That is small for both of us to sleep." Scarlet voices her concern. "Darling, if we need to sleep beside one another, we do not need a couch. We can as well sleep on the bed. A couch is to sleep one above the other." A naughty smile was playing on his lips. Scarlet places Vance in his little bassinet and walks to the couch. Ace sleeps sideways behind Scarlet. Covering them in a blanket, he places his hand around her chest squeezing and fondling her breasts. He slightly pulls her pants down and enters from behind her. "Angel might wake up." Scarlet cautions Ace. "There is no way she would wake up. She is sound asleep and even if she wakes up, she wouldn't know what we are doing. We are covered in a blanket." Ace whispers in Scarlet's ears and continues to pound inside her. Slowly the passion builds up in Scarlet. She closes her eyes in ecstasy and an involuntary soft moan releases out of her instigating Ace to touch

She stomped to unconsciousness instantly.As the doctor hinted at him in their previous consultation, Ace was prepared for everything. He carried her imperturbably to their bedroom.Little Angel walked behind. "Daddy, what happened to mommy? Why does she often faint?" She asks with her eyes watering. "Did I hurt mamma, that she sleeps frequently?" Her voice was now breaking into a cry.Ace brought out a syringe from the closet, injected medicine into it, and administered it to Scarlet.

Chapter 105"Since I was brought up in a convent from my childhood I couldn't get to do certain things which many normal teenage girls would do at that age. So...." Scarlet stopped, calculating the features of Ace and if she could speak further."So?" Ace raised a single brow. He did not know where this conversation was going but he surely suspected something fishy.Scarlet bit the inside of her cheek suddenly going shy and not able to meet her husband's eyes. "So, I want to get drunk, smoke, dance freely with a man, and end up with him on the bed."Ace left an uncomfortable chuckle, shook his head, unable to believe his ears. He did not understand how to react to his wife's insane request. "You have gone crazy, Scarlet." He exclaimed. "It is not abou

"Anytime I see talks on women empowerment in our families, education of girls, helping them progress, finding them jobs, scholarships, I hear music playing in my head. It increases my heartbeat, causing tension in my arteries. It increases my cortisol levels, testosterone decreases. The left hemisphere in my brain is stimulated." Rickey said going hysterical while pulling the hairs on his head. Sania was frightened seeing his changing personality. She took several steps back from him. It wasn't usual for Rickey to behave in such a way. She had been seeing him since his diaper days and found his body language suspicious. "Rickey you are behaving like an imbecile. What are you doing at this hour in my house, Rickey? Go, get ready. Don't you have school to attend?" She scolded him in response to an older sister mustering her last drop of courage. "When a beautiful rose like you is alone in the house, how can I go and attend the boring lecture of that English teacher? I had been attract

Sania picked up the call cheerfully with a smile but the next second what she heard made her fingers tremble and her heart skip a beat. Sania's mother Margaret who was always a brave woman started sobbing on the phone. Her father suffered a stroke and urgently required two stunts near his heart to save his life. The Collins family couldn't afford the cost. Failing to get the surgery done within a month Sania will be losing her father. It was news indigestible for Sania. But she was the older child and had the responsibility to be the backbone of her family. She gulped the obstruction forming in her throat and spoke positively to her mother. "Mama do not worry. Just take care of dad and I will arrange the funds for daddy's treatment." "How would you do that? You are still a student?" Her mother asks but there was a ray of hope in Margaret's speech. She ha

He would be taking back his wife shortly to his home. At the moment probably he would be the happiest man in the world.As soon as he rang the bell, a maid opened the door. Scarlet was upstairs in her bedroom and came out to the long corridor connecting both the staircases that were on either side of the enormous mansion."Who is it, Charla?" Her soft voice felt like a melody to his ears. It was after a very long time he was hearing her.
