Lisa POV:

It took a few weeks, Ace hasn't said anything to me yet.

For some reason, he started acting rude and nonchalant.

But again I said nothing and just continued ignoring him.

It's not my job to be friends with him anyway.

Just to treat him and make sure he is fine then walk away like nothing ever happened, yeah I could do that.

"Miss Lisa, Sir Ace is looking for you." One of the maids mumbled looking at me.

Titling my head to the side, I stare at her before shaking my head.

"Am I in trouble?" I asked with a chuckle making her smile.

"I'll be there, just a minute please," I said rolling off my bed.

She nods her head before walking away closing the door right behind her.

"Now what," I said with a groan.

I didn't feel like going close to him.

Not ready for his rude comments or anything.

Grabbing my phone, I looked at the last text Emily sent.

She still doesn't know what those pills are but is still trying to figure it out.

Walking out of my room, I tried to put a smile on my face for Ace.

"I thought I fucking told you to call her?" I heard his loud voice said from his room.

Making my eyes roll.

Again with the attitude.

"I'm here," I said quietly walking into the room.

Ace looked at me his head title to the side before looking at the maid.

"Get out." He said looking at her with a glance.

The maid didn't need to be told twice, she ran out of the room.

Letting out a breath, I walked toward him.

"Why have you been rude to everyone?" I asked crossing my arms.

"I'm not rude to everyone." He mumbled.

"So what do you call that?" I asked

"She acted slow and I hate slow things." He replied.

"And I'm not rude to you." He continued but I said nothing.

"Why did you call? Do you need help with something?" I asked looking around him when I saw nothing wrong.

But Ace said nothing and stared.

Making me raise an eyebrow.

"Uhm I just wanted to ask if it's ok for me to go outside." He said looking away.

"Huh?" I said quietly.

"I don't like repeating myself, Lisa." He mumbled looking at me now.

Shaking my head, I shuffled my shoulders before walking toward his drugs.

"You are always allowed to leave whenever you want Mr. Ace," I said.

"Just be careful that's all," I said quietly walking toward the door.

"Where do you think you're going?" He asked me to pause

"My bedroom?" I said but sounded more like a question to me.

"No, you will go with me," He said with a tone.

"But?"

"No, but Angel, you are walking with me, as a nurse, my nurse you have to make sure I'm ok at all costs He replied with a smirk.

"Are you a kid, Mr Ace?" I asked softly tilting my head to the side.

But again he smirk before standing up.

I had to title my head up to look at him.

"Just move and don't talk too much Little Nurse." He replied walking out of the room.

"What the heck?" I mumbled looking at the bed and at the door, he walked out.

"Is he flirting with me?" I whispered with a chuckle.

"I might be losing my mind right now," I said quietly.

"Lisa?" I heard him call out making me jump before walking towards the door.

"I'm coming," I replied walking down the stairs.

There he stood, his eyes on mine as I made my way down.

Why does he stare so much?

This man might be crazy.

I thought before shaking my head.

"Good girl." He said when I stepped on the last step.

"Let's just go," I mumbled walking past him.

Not missing the chuckle that left his lips.

The maids and butlers looked our way as we walked.

Mumbling words to themselves.

But I tried so hard to not look Thier Way.

When we got outside the Mansion.

A breath left my lips when I felt the cold air around me.

"Beautiful right?" I heard Ace ask.

Making me nod but didn't turn my head to him.

"I always come out here when I want to clear my mind a bit." He said.

"Come on, let's go sit," he said before walking past me, pulling my hand.

A grasp left my lips when I felt a sparkle when our hands linked.

Ace looked at me before looking away.

I guess he felt it too.

"Is it ok if I ask why your sister hates u?" I asked.

Ace lets out a chuckle before shaking his head.

"You can ask anything you want Nurse Lisa, I'll try to reply." He said.

"So uhm, when I accepted here, your sister was nice to me, but she didn't seem to like you much," I said.

"Why?" I asked softly.

"Evenly is my step sister, we are not biological siblings, and she hates me because her father gave all his money to me and not her." He replied looking at the sky.

"So she hates u only because of that?" I asked softly.

"That's what I know of, I don't think I did anything else to her," Ace mumbled.

Nodding my head, I looked up at the sky.

"Do you have any siblings?" I heard Ace ask making me nod.

"A sister," I said quietly.

Ace looked at me for a second, I guess he was expecting me to explain more.

"Uhm I hardly see them, I am always at work and living my personal Life," I said quietly.

Nodding he looked away.

"Well, you got me now." He mumbled making my head snap to his.

A smirk on his lips as he looked down at me.

Making me chuckle.

"I think we need to go to sleep now." I said quietly standing up from the chair.

"Running away from me won't change anything, Nurse Lisa." He called out to me.

But again I ignored him and walked away, a smile never leaving my lips.

  • Ace   chapter 127

    A year had passed since the chaos, and now, the air in their new home was filled with a sense of peace that neither Ace nor Lisa had ever known. They were far away from the world they used to know, the one that had been filled with danger, betrayal, and uncertainty. It was a small, quiet life now, one where the past didn’t matter, only the future they were building together.Lisa cradled their baby girl in her arms, smiling down at the tiny face that had completely changed her world. Their daughter, with her soft dark hair and delicate features, was the perfect blend of both of them. A reminder of the love and strength that had carried them through everything.Walking down the hallway of their cozy little house, Lisa could hear the faint sound of the ocean waves crashing against the shore in the distance. It was serene, soothing in a way that felt like a lullaby to her soul. She made her way to the room where Ace was sitting, his back facing the door as he gazed out the large windo

  • Ace   chapter 126

    Ace leaned against the doorframe of the small bedroom where Lisa lay resting. The soft glow of the bedside lamp illuminated her peaceful face, a stark contrast to the chaos that had unfolded just hours ago. He couldn’t stop thinking about Richard’s lifeless body and how close his wife had come to harm. His mind was a whirlwind of conflicting thoughts, and the only thing keeping him grounded was the sight of Lisa, safe and sound in their bed."Stay here," he whispered softly, brushing a loose strand of hair from her forehead. Lisa stirred but didn’t wake, her exhaustion finally catching up with her after everything that had happened. He pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead, then turned to leave the room, closing the door quietly behind him.Ace’s expression hardened as he walked down the hallway toward the warehouse's lower levels, where Evelyn was being held. His men had taken care of Richard’s body, as per his orders, disposing of it far away from their hideout. Now, there was one

  • Ace   chapter 125

    Grey stood outside the cell where Evelyn was being held, watching her through the small window. The bruises and cuts on her face were evidence of the fight she had put up, but there was no sympathy in his eyes. She had brought this on herself, and Grey had no more business here. His part was done—he had helped Ace capture her, and now it was time for him to leave.He pushed the door open and stepped inside, the cold air of the cell greeting him as the heavy metal door closed behind him. Evelyn was slumped in the corner, her arms wrapped around her knees, her hair hanging loosely over her face. She didn't look up as Grey entered, but he could sense that she was fully aware of his presence.A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips as he sat down in the lone chair facing her. "Oh, poor Evelyn," he said mockingly, his voice filled with dark amusement. "I must say, it's been quite a ride, hasn't it?"Evelyn remained silent, her head tilted slightly, but she didn’t look at him. Grey didn’t

  • Ace   chapter 124

    Lisa lay peacefully in bed, the soft warmth of the blankets cocooning her, her body relaxed as sleep slowly pulled her under. She was vaguely aware of the gentle ticking of the clock on the wall and the quiet hum of the house, sounds that had become comforting in this strange new place Ace had brought her to.But then, something shifted. A sound, almost imperceptible, but enough to make her stir.Her brow furrowed, still caught in the remnants of a dream, as she called out, "Ace?"There was no reply.She blinked her eyes open, pushing herself up on the bed. Her hand reached out, instinctively seeking Ace’s familiar warmth beside her, but her fingers touched only cool, empty sheets. Her frown deepened as she sat up fully, glancing around the dark room. Where was he?"Ace?" she called again, louder this time.Still nothing.A chill crept up her spine as she swung her legs over the side of the bed, slipping her feet into her slippers. Something didn’t feel right. Her heart began to bea

  • Ace   chapter123

    Ace sat in his office, fingers drumming against the wooden desk as he stared at the stack of papers in front of him. His mind wasn’t on the documents, though. No matter how much he tried to distract himself with work, his thoughts always drifted back to Lisa and the baby. He hadn’t been home much lately, caught up in his dealings, and a part of him knew he was avoiding her.His phone buzzed on the desk, pulling him from his thoughts. He picked it up, seeing Grey’s name flash across the screen.He answered immediately. “Grey?”“We have her,” Grey’s voice came through, cool and composed. “Evelyn’s in our custody. She’s in the cells now, and we rounded up a few of her men, but Richard wasn’t with them.”Ace’s heartbeat quickened. They had Evelyn. Finally, they had her. But the news about Richard not being there left a bitter taste in his mouth. That man was like a ghost, always slipping through their fingers.“I’m coming soon,” Ace said, his voice firm. He stood up, grabbing his coat, a

  • Ace   chapter 123

    Ann sat in the dimly lit room, her hands trembling slightly as she held the burner phone.Grey and his team had just briefed her on the plan—she was to call Evelyn, pretend to be sorry, and offer her some fabricated information about Ace and Lisa. It was a risky plan, but one they hoped would finally lead them to capturing Evelyn. Her mind was racing, trying to process the weight of what she was about to do. She had betrayed Lisa once by working with Evelyn, and though she had switched sides, the guilt still gnawed at her. Now, they were asking her to go back into the lion’s den, to trick the very person who had manipulated her before. Grey stood across from her, his expression calm but serious. “Are you ready?”Ann swallowed hard, nodding. “Yeah… I’ll do it.”One of Grey’s men handed her the phone, the screen lit up with Evelyn’s number. Ann’s thumb hovered over the call button for a moment, her heart pounding in her chest. She knew this call would either lead to Evelyn’s capture o
